 But is it actually recording? OK, yeah, there we are. What's up, everyone? So in this video, I just had really a bunch of announcements to make, little ones. No content. Don't expect high quality content here. But just a couple things people have been asking me about or things that are worth bringing up. Actually, first, I'm going to change this background. I don't sort of bad color. Anyway, so let me go ahead and say I've actually started posting videos again. I mean, I've been in this mindset where I've been posting one a week or sometimes one every two weeks. And that's over. I now have a to-do list. And you will see that I actually have many, many videos planned for this week, next week, the week after, stuff like this. I now have a to-do list, lukesmith.xyz slash to-do. And basically, this is just the way of me keeping myself publicly accountable so I actually get stuff done. So these are sort of my ideas for what I'm going to do just in the future, if you want to know. If you have any suggestions, just email in my way. But I wanted to do this just to keep myself on task, just because I've been posting so much less recently. I sort of feel bad about it. It's been a sort of busy semester, but sort of not busy enough to drive me on. But now that it's sort of closing, I actually, now that I have less time, because the semester is ending and everything is all busy, I feel like I could do more on YouTube. I don't know, psychology is weird, I don't understand. But so yeah, I got a couple things out and I'll have a whole lot more out in the next week or so. Of course, this isn't entirely ironclad. I might have to move some things, delay some things, or of course, add more stuff on. So that's my to-do list. A lot of people, given the last video I put up, which was on decentralizing the internet and alternatives to YouTube and stuff like that, a lot of people asked me, why don't you have a bit shoot? And it is in, as it ends up, as I found out today, I actually do have a bit shoot. And I now have the link to it in my website, so you can check that out. I say I only just realized today because I actually made this account a month or so ago and gave it my YouTube account link. And I didn't think that would do anything, but apparently it's been posting my videos and stuff. So you can now watch me on bit shoot, all the recent stuff's gonna be up there, just if you're the kind of guy who doesn't really like using YouTube or whatever. Of course, I'm not telling you to move to bit shoot full time. I'm just saying the options there. I mean, I totally love getting all the views on YouTube or whatever. It's my primary platform just because of networking effects for now, but just know the bit shoot is out there for those people who wanna use it. So yeah, that's that. And of course, still not gonna monetize this thing, but that said, I'm very much against monetization, putting ads on my videos or even worse, God, don't you hate it when you turn on a tech video? And he's like, we're gonna talk about X, but first I gotta shill for this product. So never gonna do that, shoot me if I ever do that. But that said, I totally appreciate people who have people have been sending me, I don't wanna say a good bit, but some support on PayPal, which does make a difference. It's not that much, but whenever you get 20 bucks from someone, you're like, oh, this can make a big difference. Even relatively small amounts like that, I'm not expecting people to pay my rent at this point, but that said, I do have a Patreon now, which I actually made like a month or two ago, but I only just realized, maybe I should start actually posting stuff on this thing. So I'm gonna be posting my videos and stuff, but also have, I'll probably do a video on this altogether, but I'll go ahead and say now, if you have any ideas for the kind of exclusive content that I can offer on Patreon, shoot ideas my way. I'd just be interested because I do wanna sort of have a tier system where higher payers get more stuff and stuff like that. But thanks to you guys, to any of you guys who have at least volunteered to pledge, even without me advertising it, I appreciate that. I should probably, considering it's money, I should probably put it out more obviously, but whatever. So I'll do a video on that later. Aside from that sort of Linuxy stuff or at least workflow stuff, you'll notice I'm no longer actually using, well, you might not notice, but I'm using Pale Moon right now, Pale Moon. And that's just because the big changes in Firefox finally came to pass and made everything unusable in a lot of my old add-ons and my custom CSS, no longer work in Firefox. And a lot of people have asked me, are you gonna do another video on Firefox, just sort of figuring that stuff out and rejiggering it? And originally I was, but I think I'm just gonna use Pale Moon. So Pale Moon, for those of you who don't know, I assume most people do, but Pale Moon's just like classic Firefox, which runs so much faster. It's just such a better browser. So I'm gonna be using this. If anyone wants to update my old user CSS for Firefox for the new updates, feel free to do that and email it to me and I'll publish it. But I think I'm gonna stick with Pale Moon because it's just a better experience and stuff. And oh yeah, the other thing people have been talking about, right? So look at the CPU temperature up there. What is that? 90 Celsius, Jesus, that's enormous. So this, I'm running my, I'm using this X220 again. I've been going, my X200 is basically in the shop. I was having some kernel problems. I don't, well actually I think it has to do with my ThinkPad dock. I couldn't quite troubleshoot it. So I just sort of switched to my X220, which I've been using as my main machine for the past couple weeks I guess. Really just because I've been too lazy to figure out whatever's wrong with the X200. But yeah, people are gonna give me a whole bunch of shit for using a not Librebooted device, but whatever, it's enough for now. Still waiting for that Libreboot, Leah. Still waiting for it. But anyway, so yeah, I feel like there's something else I was supposed to mention. Probably, that's all right. I'll put it up later if I remember it. So anyway, check out the to-do list if you wanna know what I'm doing or email me ideas. Go ahead and throw your support on Patreon or again, I'll do a video on it later. But if you have ideas for ways for me to, you know, have a nice little scheme going on Patreon, feel free to shoot the ideas my way. I'd appreciate it. But anyway, this has been a nice little meta video so I hope you guys, I don't wanna say you enjoyed it, but I hope you were informed and I hope you keep watching. So I'll be putting stuff out really soon. So see you guys next time.
