The summary is, Kevin's son Alexander introduces himself to the HPR community.
|
||
|
|
Hello, my name is Alexander McFaea.
|
||
|
|
I live in the island of Lewis in Scotland.
|
||
|
|
I am 14 and this is my first ever episode of Hacker Public Radio.
|
||
|
|
I heard about Hacker Public Radio from my dad or as most of you know him as Kevin.
|
||
|
|
I have been using Linux all my life as my dad won't have anything else on home computers.
|
||
|
|
I was given a computer by my neighbour at the end of 2021 but it was very old for Christmas
|
||
|
|
back here.
|
||
|
|
My dad bought new parts and made it up for me and on Christmas day I was given my computer
|
||
|
|
with a bunch of new installs.
|
||
|
|
But I knew that there was loads of different versions of Linux so I started testing others
|
||
|
|
and chose PopOS as my system as I am still using this today.
|
||
|
|
And you are gaming on my computer as my favourite app to use is Steam and I also have some
|
||
|
|
games from Golf and a few from the Pop Software Centre.
|
||
|
|
I am a YouTube teacher and I use Firefox as my browser.
|
||
|
|
I don't get to visit people as often as I would like but I keep in touch with my relatives
|
||
|
|
on the mainland using Jitsimit.
|
||
|
|
My favourite PC games are House Super, Udotruck and American Trucks Simulator and more recently
|
||
|
|
Udot.
|
||
|
|
My favourite YouTubers are Beard Meets Food, Ethics, Electric, Dan TDM, Stampigat.
|
||
|
|
My favourite YouTubers are Gaming, History and Food Challenges.
|
||
|
|
Certain phone apps that I use are UWP and Morsex which is a game we have to try and use
|
||
|
|
strategy and your mind to try and control forces.
|
||
|
|
I am a big tablet user and I use YouTube a lot from that and I also play a lot of games
|
||
|
|
on that as well.
|
||
|
|
For example, UWP and Morsex again, I do have that and I also like a bit to play a bit
|
||
|
|
of Candy Crush as well and that sounds pretty good.
|
||
|
|
On the Xbox I have three different Xbox, I have the original Xbox, I have Xbox 360
|
||
|
|
and Xbox One.
|
||
|
|
Let's start with the original Xbox.
|
||
|
|
So on the original Xbox I like to play stuff like Star Wars Republic, Commando, Simpsons
|
||
|
|
Hidden Run and Simpsons Roadridge.
|
||
|
|
On the Xbox 360 I like to play Saints Row 3 and Saints Row 2 and 4 and I also like to
|
||
|
|
play GTA 4 as well.
|
||
|
|
On the Xbox One I love to play Red Dead 2, Star Wars Battlefront 1 and 2.
|
||
|
|
I like to play, I like to watch YouTube but I like to watch Cody which is a streaming
|
||
|
|
app due to watch videos on and shows on and I also like to watch Disney Plus as well.
|
||
|
|
So that's pretty good.
|
||
|
|
I do have a Raspberry Pi called the Retro Pi where I get to play lots of games and I like
|
||
|
|
the Atari to use 600 games, the SNES games and I also like the NES games as well and there
|
||
|
|
is a few and the Game Boy Advance and all that.
|
||
|
|
One of my favourite games to do on the Atari is Real Sports Boxing where you basically have
|
||
|
|
to try and fight the computer or another or like an opponent of your choice like your
|
||
|
|
friend or your dad or somebody like that, you know, it's quite a fun game.
|
||
|
|
On the SNES games I like Super Mario Kart and Street Fighter, my favourite is Iehonda.
|
||
|
|
I'm sure people will debate about that but alright then.
|
||
|
|
And Super Mario Kart and I like Mario as my favourite character so that's pretty good as
|
||
|
|
well.
|
||
|
|
On the NES I like Super Mario Brothers and Tetris, I'm interested in history as my favourite
|
||
|
|
one of my favourite things to do in history is US Presidents and another fascinating part
|
||
|
|
about history is the World Wars, both one and two.
|
||
|
|
I also like classic comedies as well, one of my favourites are aloe, aloe, faulty towers,
|
||
|
