+Today's show is entitled, My Beginnings in Tech

+and car in an exquisite flag
+The summer is rumbling about how I got into technology and Linux

+Okay so welcome to my introductory show
+Which is about like how I got into tech and I guess Linux
+Because that's somewhat a theme of whatever this is
+Apparently so that's the thing
+I kind of owe you guys a show
+Because I've been listening for just a little while and I decided yeah I do the near stream thing
+I joined in you know talk a little bit
+I'm sure someone listening to this was there and heard me speak
+So yeah
+And I said I do an introductory show
+At least the bare minimum I would do that
+And as this website here says on the contribute section
+If you talk so you're doing a show they need oh it's a show
+So I oh yeah I show and this is that show
+So I say so a lot
+It I have some notes written down
+Um a little little text editor here in them
+and
+And the first line just says this will suck so that's
+It's the confidence I have in me
+I'm doing a lot of hand gestures here as if you can hear me or see me sorry. I hope you can hear me
+My instinct is I just just just just articulate a lot so you know if I bump the mic by accident
+Sorry for your drums
+uh suffer
+Anyways
+Yeah, I am a lot that I already say that I don't know
+I have the memory of a disease the goldfish so if I repeat things I'm also sorry
+Maroon is gonna get cold so I can't make this so so long
+Because I have to turn by you know furnace off
+And that's kind of an issue because it is I can check
+32 degrees outside so yeah
+Not the weather that you want to have your furnace off in
+So let's speed this up a little bit
+So I don't freeze to death in here
+Burrana I I heated up to 70 uh for before hand so I don't
+Completely die but it is for like 20 minutes, but I don't think I will I don't have that much to cover
+My audio from this mic is of dubious quality. I don't think it'll sound great
+But I don't think it'll be awful by any means it's uh
+I don't know. It's just like some $40 microphone I got a Amazon
+So it can't imagine it's awful, but I can't imagine it's great
+I've heard the sound from before so I know it it's all right
+It won't you know torture your drums or anything so yeah
+Let's actually start the thing I've been rambling for nearly four minutes now
+Uh that'll actually be short because I have to cut out the part where I
+Like like three and a half minutes I've been rambling too long
+What does my show got again? I'm kidding I'm kidding I'm messing with you as a test
+Uh this show as I said before is about how I got into tech and eventually you know Linux
+But tech tech this is how I got into tech that's more general right
+I've always been very technical
+Person sorry I got a text should probably turn my phone
+Well for this
+Yes, she was loud um
+Like when I was really young um I was less of like you know dolls and
+um
+It's what do you call those things action figures this kind of thing so it's not my thing
+stunt that kind of child
+um
+I was more like you know technical stuff like uh
+I mean
+What I was a child that's not like like I mean like I got into child that's not like I was
+Doing anything you know amazing, but stuff that was you know normal kids would not be interested in
+Not to say that I was like a child prodigy. I certainly was good at it. It was just you know the thing I like to do
+And that was the kind of kid I was
+So obviously I was into computers and
+Despite the computing technology at the time not being
+You know amazing I did some games as well
+Uh, like what I have access to I mean I there is
+Better than what I had access to but it was not like
+Well, we have now obviously and
+sometimes
+When I was like probably
+I don't know
+10 maybe my dad my father put linux on a computer
+Hands full of sleep
+It was an old laptop
+I
+Can't remember for life in me what kind of laptop I was or I would say because that's
+That would that would probably give you a better idea of when this was but I don't know
+Nothing fancy. Obviously. It was not a very good computer for the time. It wasn't awful
+But nowadays if you were to touch that computer you would probably be very uh disappointed
+and
+He put linux on it and I I mean I'd run
+What I use windows I think probably mostly windows only
+There's xp vista the kind of thing remember exactly what
+Because I was not that old
+Yeah
+And I was really interested in it
+Uh
+Because I it was something new and I always have like new things
+That uh, you know, I'd like to get my head around to understand these new things that are
+Being put in front of me
+so
+I did and I didn't understand it too well because I was you know only like 8 to 10
+It's not like I
+Was written
+written some
+If I can code that she isn't saying she shouldn't swear
+It's bad to know now. I mean it's not against rules or anything. It's just
+Want to be accessible to all not that I think young children regularly listen to
+This show, but just think he's tried to swear
+Or uh cuss if you'd like to see it like that
+Not how it said where I'm from
+It's different for everyone
+And
+When I got rid of that computer I just went back to like whatever the hell
+Windows probably I don't think it was mac
+That's the only two options because it was something mainstream
+So for a long time I uh didn't use Linux anymore
+But I was still into technology as a whole
+So I mean I did technology east stuff
+Whatever that means I don't actually know. I just don't need this stuff and I know you know we're a little bit of code
+Nothing amazing at all probably like
+What would have been
+JavaScript
+So you obviously nothing
+Amazing again, not a prodigy
+It's not a very good child anyways
+Jeez I should remain it's I keep cute like just like yeah, I'm like oh, I have notes right here why I'm not reading them
+Uh, I think like five years now. I wouldn't have been five years ago. I had to be in the last night
+Yeah, I had to be like three years ago. What year is it?
+2021
+2020 18 18 you three or four years ago 2017 2018
+And 2017 and the beginning of 2018 somewhere around that area
+I got into Linux again um
+But I only my father
+Blossom uh still
+I hope to mean because that I was not very good at that and he was
+Even though it was old enough that you know
+It certainly should have been doing this by myself with Google like I was way too old to be asking my father to help me
+But he helped me do the Linux and Windows
+um
+And I just kind of think of clinics a little bit
+And then once again
+No longer had windows because I
+Was sorry Linux
+Because I can't you know, I'm never if I don't go all the way into something. I'm not gonna do it uh
+I can't like just half-ass it. I got it. I got plunged into it. So I learned them. That's how I learned uh
+I for you my free window manager, you know that is which
+Most of you should I think but maybe a institution that I don't know
+That's how I learned this thing. I just you know all the way and take the plunge
+Learn what I'm doing and if I don't do that, I'll probably give up on it
+Excuse me. I have a dry mouth
+So I went back to using windows exclusively windows and now I know it was windows
+And I had to like a lot nicer PC now
+I don't know the specs
+But it was something
+I don't know
+I would remember if you gave me enough time, but I don't know right now. I
+Didn't
+Get back into Linux until
+the middle of last year
+So I'm not exactly
+you know
+The most veteran Linux user
+But I am certainly using it now
+Because I don't own any copies of windows anymore and I'm kind of proud of that because I absolutely hate Microsoft nowadays
+uh
+You know it's just a not a fan of big tech companies at all. That's the same show
+So
+So I took the deepest plunge in the Linux that could I mean not really I installed pop OS
+And it's not really the deepest lunge I could have taken I could have gone like
+instilled gen 2 or arch Linux or something just that would have been a deeper punch, but that would have been silly
+Probably not the best way to start Linux
+I mean not start Linux because obviously it's easy before
+But through I did not have that much knowledge and I had actually not been you know doing any
+coding stuff programming whatever they'll any of the difference, but I don't know what it is
+I feel like one one time is different for that. I don't know why
+Uh, I actually stopped doing that. I don't like impure stuff
+Doesn't actually matter to leave it off, but I can't rewind it anyway
+I feel like I'm going off on too many tangents
+um
+And I've only gone off on like two, so that's it's probably not true
+uh
+What would I say? Right
+So I hadn't been doing any code at all. I was really at least I think I did where I was younger
+Of course nowadays I am
+Uh, but that is later on in this show not much later on but a little bit later on
+So I got into Papua's uh, pretty simple um
+Like just you know
+It's basically kind of um
+Literally basically is kind of nuts about it. That's all it is. So
+I just
+Used that and
+Also did some more technical stuff underneath it like I was learning, you know
+command line
+bash obviously because I
+What else would I be using that was just getting links and I still use bash as a show
+So I was getting into more
+technical stuff um
+This is really where the story starts to end
+I was getting to that kind of thing, you know
+technical
+Linux more deeper stuff like writing shell scripts
+Uh, to do things for me, you know, nothing fancy again
+and
+That's not amazing, but to me it was like whoa
+This is this is crazy. I am doing stuff that I can never do before
+I'm gonna have to pee by the end of this
+And
+I was doing that for a while and I'd say about
+August now
+October, November this year
+I gotta do a lot of talk to that. It's not relevant
+Uh, and I installed the Community Edition of Minjaro Packages i3
+Which is really a deep punch because I never used i3 before that and uh, it was really nice to them. I liked it
+And it's kind of where I am now. It's exactly where I am now. I'm using
+Uh, not the exact same, you know
+Install that upgrade system, but I am using that same
+Package version with the Minjaro Packages i3
+It's what I'm using now
+Community Edition of Minjaro
+And I love it. I mean
+I definitely enjoy having the Arch user repository a or
+Uh, of course, I don't actually have arch because uh, why would I?
+I can just use Minjaro
+Arch just seems to complicate things more than I really need to
+If someone gives me a value reason to use Arch over Minjaro, I will definitely hear it out, but I don't really have one
+so
+Yeah
+And now I'm kind of learning
+Some basic good stuff with like, you know
+Again, uh, that's what I'm looking for
+Very basic
+It's been only like a month of me doing this so no we're near
+Amazing at it, but hopefully it'll be a job one day as much as I think that'll be kind of soulless
+So one thing I can probably do because I'm not good at anything
+Yeah
+So
+That's almost basically the entire story
+Um almost basically
+I don't think there's two words of good together like that, but whatever
+Ah, I think that is actually the end though
+My name, I totally didn't give you a name, did I? I neglected to mention that um
+The name I'm choosing to use is O9L
+We had a name come from the one I asked you because that's a whole story
+Uh
+I could I could tell the story eventually
+Hmm, I don't go by that name
+In a whole lot of places that you won't be able to find me
+To maybe I think
+That's whatever
+Um, of course I have everything on there
+You can call me like O9, I guess, I don't really care
+You can call me wherever the fuck you want to call me
+If you refer to me like, hey dumbass, so I'll probably say what
+I
+Don't care
+That's the end of this oh, I'm leaning on my mouth with my hand
+That makes for great audio
+That's the end of this
+I don't have anything else to close this with, you know, no, no special closing remarks
+But yeah, I give you my name there
+I guess I have to submit it with my name or something, I'm not quite sure
+I don't know how this is gonna work
+I've never submitted this show obviously as this is my first
+I'm kind of scared I don't know how it's gonna be received but
+There's uh, there's a link here in the website
+Where is it?
+If you are worried the show may not be of interest to hackers and you can click here to check if it is
+And it is just a page with the word yes and very high font very large font
+So I'm going to assume that no one's going to care
+Uh, how bad is I mean
+And uh, close that right here
+Makes me a little less scared but I am quite nervous to hit some fun on this
+Yikes, um, that's in the
+Bile
+Please don't make fun of me too hard
