 All right, good morning. It's Sunday morning. You better be preparing for Sunday school. I want to do a little video Let me tell you this. I'm thinking about restarting my channel. What does that even mean to restart a channel? I'm not going to delete my channel or anything. Don't get ideas But here's what I'm thinking when I started my channel. I should say this When I did tutorial videos Here's what I wanted in a tutorial video. I wanted it to be short and concise get to the point Actually talk about something novel and you put tutorials videos out there and they partially made my channel I one of my first tutorial. I guess series was on law tech. I did a bunch of other stuff It was good. I got some stuff out there, but the thing about that thing about especially about YouTube is that Basically if something was made more than a week or so ago YouTube will never recommend it unless it just goes totally viral Okay, so in addition to that I'll say that you know One thing I realized since having a YouTube channel is if I do a video on something Let's say I do a video on Vim. I do a video on my shell I do a video on anything technology related if I put that video up if I show people all the great setup that I have What's gonna happen really soon or really immediately once I put that video up is someone's gonna give me more ideas of what to change You know, oh, you can make it better by doing this or that. Okay, so weirdly enough to the paradox of my Channel, I guess is that when I put out when I put out dot files and when I put out Oh, this is what I'm doing for this program That a little will nearly immediately change. Okay, so that's that causes a bunch of confusion for people obviously You know who are trying to follow my dot files and I link to something and it's changed within the past week but anyway Why I bring this up is I'm thinking about restarting my channel and what I mean by that is I'm start You know, I originally thought okay when I put up a tutorial video I'm not gonna ever need to put anything out if I do a tutorial video on lot hacker my terminal Or I don't know something else I never need to do another tutorial on it because it's over my information is out there Well, first off my information is always increasing It's partially based on you guys but partially based on just you know I'm more experienced with computers and stuff now so I know even more about what I'm doing And also those old old videos which are still good a lot of them aren't even viewed So I think it's and even more so since I since you know, all especially when I take breaks from YouTube I'll go a couple months without putting videos out and I'll be like, oh, I have 20,000 more subscribers who have no idea What's going on, you know, they don't know I you know I've sort of been talking to my audience like it's been there since the very beginning and mathematically it hasn't you know I you know, I have this idea that Everyone's been watching since when I had 300 subscribers, which is not true. So anyway, I have two weeks off from work And that's because of corona Chan So I have lots of time at home and I'm thinking about probably I want to actually probably put up a video a day Just redoing some not not I don't even say redoing but retwriting the same content But with better stuff now the better stuff I have now And really what I'm looking for is let's say I'll probably do a video on my terminal ST Which I've actually done two videos on that that's one of the rare cases where I've actually already done two videos on it Just because I added so much to it And I think what I'm shooting for is a tutorial that starts off with really basic stuff Obviously going through things pretty concisely and quickly But then at the end of the video when only the most hardcore people continue to watch I'll talk about some of the more I guess I don't know hardcore topics and I think that's usually how I want to arrange the videos with the The information for the normies up front everything else is a little hardcore as you go on So I'm sort of planning videos like that and I'll probably be making them soon enough anyway That's just my idea originally. I will say I was sort of a snob about redoing videos That's one of the reasons I haven't done it You know whenever people would ask me about a question I'd just be like Oh, I did a video on this two years ago. Check this out And I originally had the idea. Oh, well, I'm just never going to to redo a video that's sort of cringe I'll just be like milking people for views But the reality is the it's the state of YouTube that YouTube just does not recommend old stuff And a lot of the old stuff could be done better especially my early videos even at a video standpoint, I don't I didn't even record in 1080p I recorded at like the weird What is it? I forget what the resolution of the think pad x200 was or no I had this weird TV screen that was like some weird resolution So everything I uploaded to YouTube had black bars all over it, but all right. So anyway, that's what I want to do So keep in touch if you have any Specific things you want you haven't seen me do or any things about my dot files that you're confused by Feel free to ask or just anything you want to see now in general I won one finally final note is one thing that distinguishes me from some other channels that do Tutorial videos is that a since the beginning I have I Basically had this mindset I don't want to do a video on something that I'm not perfectly knowledgeable about or at least like You know relatively more informed about there are some channels on YouTube and this isn't a knock against them It's not a bad thing, but there are some guys who do Tutorials on programs that they just installed and started using yesterday. I am absolutely not that kind of person And the reason I don't do that. Well, first off, I've never really gone out there looking for things to do videos on I really just I'm like, okay. I've started to use this tool. Let me explain it Whereas I know there's some other guys again. This isn't a knock about them. It's good I mean it's good that they do this who will sort of go out there and Just sort of pick a program do a video on it and that's it But you know, I guess now From my perspective, I'm at a point where my system is actually pretty stable A lot of people think I just spend a lot of time modifying my computer. That's just not the case It's pretty much optimal I don't want to say that because you know, you might tell give me some more advice and I might change it even more But you know, it's especially my window manager. Whatever changes I make to that are very superficial so Anyway, that's about it. Oh, and by the way, I know I did a video set out saying I was gonna use BSPWM I'm using DWM and I'm using DWM for life. I'm sorry. I just can't maybe I'll do a video on that one, but That's not that's not for you. So anyway, that's about it My cell phone's about to run out of power because I haven't charged it in days your system It was just in my car like all week. So I'm gonna turn this thing off. See you guys next time
