Detailed Explanation

stultus is the pseudonym I use on different platforms. If it is already taken, I use altered versions like stultusz , stultuzz or _stultus. I started to use this pseudonym on IRC chat rooms in 2008. Pseudonyms were a thing in IRC. Also, it is cool to have one. Thus the name and hence the domain name.
