That was me when I first started using Linux 10 years ago. I didn’t know any of this stuff, and most of it didn’t even fucking exit. Wing it and worry later. Moral of the story, I reinstalled several times a month. Lmao

I don’t remember this acronym. But we probably didn’t since I don’t remember it. It was nice until Best Buy started encroaching into our work little by little then it fucking became unbearable. I actually went into deep depression because of the job until I left.

The fuck? Wow. I was one of those geeksquad agents back in the day. I left them when they started to tell us to be scummy with our clients. Basically mislead them and sell them shit they didn’t need. I didn’t know it has gotten this bad.

I’ve always wondered how companies like Best Buy, CVS and Walgreens are still in business. Best Buy for being shit scammers and the other two for their outrageous prices.

Bachelor of science in molecular biology here. Never had any computer/programming courses, not even in college. I come from a 3rd world country, so our “computer lab” naturally had two desktops that we were only allowed on for half an hour a week for basic windows tasks. I’ve always been a curious person, though. Moved to the US in 2010 and started messing around with a laptop I had that was struggling to run windows. Ran into this thing called “Linux” and the rest is history.
I’ve had countless sleepless nights fixing things on my broken Linux installs and/or to make some things work. That is the thing that built what I know now.
Being the same curious dude I am, I wanted to dip my toes into self-hosting, and I just discovered that it’s just a whole new world that is even more fun. Been doing things in this realm for around 1.5 years now and still dabbling.
Edit: forgot to mention that I now work as a software developer at a big company. Yes, my microbiology degree is sitting in the drawer sleeping. lol
