About

Hi, I’m Daniel.

Late thirties, at home in the Saarland – and six years of working with servers. It started with a single machine and the question of how to set one up properly. What stayed is the curiosity about what happens behind the scenes: why a service runs, why it suddenly stops, and what it takes to get it going again.

Under SaarlandLetsPlay there is playing and streaming, under SAARBYTE sits the technology behind it. What runs here runs on my own servers – set up by hand, maintained by hand, with nobody in between. This site included: no page builder, no bought theme, built from scratch.

That is why there is a globe up there. It turns towards you once and lands exactly where all of this comes from – between the Saar and the Hunsrück, on the patch of ground that carries the mark.
