        I’m looking at your username, and trying to figure out if You’re BuffaloX or BuffaLox, a smoked buffalo/salmon hybrid

          Mostly it originated from Buffalo always being taken, which I use because my name is Bill. Then I remembered as a child I had a book “King Christian X” (I’m from Denmark) so I thought adding the X was pretty cool. Also when programming 0X is Hexadecimal with 0 being a zero, so I thought it was super cool it kind of had a double meaning, if you allowed for some lack of accuracy. Originally I used big O for it to look more like a zero. But now I just call myself Buffalox, because that’s how I say it. But Originally it was BuffalOX.

          English is not my first language, and I wasn’t aware there was a a smoked buffalo/salmon hybrid called buffalox. So thanks for telling me. 😀
