Hello. I'm Silas Eacret. I'm a second-year Computer Science student at the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire.
My primary occupation right now is as a Student Administrator at the Blugold Center for High Performance Computing at UWEC.
My interests change often and drastically, but here's a good list of stuff I think is cool:

  • Cybersecurity
  • Radio (of pretty much all kinds)
  • Linux
  • Self-hosting
  • Human Rights
  • Small Electronics
  • Rocketry (model or otherwise)
  • Lockpicking
  • Root Beer
  • Probably most other things

This site serves as documentations, notes, writeups, project updates, a blog, or whatever else I feel like putting on it (it's my site, fool). Pretty much everything runs on a VPS behind Caddy; this particular site is powered by Zensical, which I guess is like MkDocs 2?


Stuff in my thing? (yes!)

Blog - Updates, tidbits, grains of informational salt on a cosmic-scale tablecloth

Projects - More in-depth than updates or the aforementioned grains of salt. Perhaps this is one of those crappy gas station salt packets

Writeups - A lot of salt, but in a sack of sugar; digestable for people who aren't mega-dorks like myself

Links - Tools, references, and things I like


A list of things I've gone to (both attending and presenting)

  • Concert (The Black Dahlia Murder, The Acacia Strain, Disembodied Tyrant, Corpse Pile) - 2nd May, 2026 - The Rave, Milwaukee, WI
