 But everyone so I figured I'd do a little review or not really review but sort of a Post-hoc journal about Linux Fest how it all went. It was actually pretty great Pretty interesting experience not something. I've done before but yeah, I definitely enjoyed it. So it was in Charlotte Charlotte, North Carolina. I stayed there. So most people it was at the Sheraton or something like that Most people were staying at the hotel. I didn't want to spend all that money I mean Linux Fest of course reserves these rooms for you and all at a reduced price But it's still too much I actually the whole trip for me because I took the bus out the bus was only like 10 bucks And then I stayed at an Airbnb which I think for four nights was something like 150 bucks or something like that So I spent less than 200 for the whole thing But anyway, I'm gonna sit down Anyway, so how was it? So of course I had to talk I had a talk on Saturday and Actually a lot I met a whole lot of subscribers and other people who Seen the channel or whatever and that was pretty sweet I actually pretty much had a crowded room. There were people standing and stuff like that I don't think every seat was taken but you know some of those Linux people they're too awkward to sit next to each other So there was a bunch of standing room that was taken up Oh by the way shave the goatee as you can see it's not super even I'm sort of waiting for it to grow out before I cut it in a little more But anyway, so Linux Fest met a lot of people I think I said on the forum like my subscribers are a lot more normal than I thought they'd be I thought they'd be they'd be a little weird. That wasn't the case a lot of them were pretty cool I would call you guys out personally. I don't know who wants to be doxxed, but so I won't do that But yeah, I hung out with a lot of them. There was probably a core of about you know I probably met a dozen people personally and talked to And then there were others who at least greeted me and then there was you know Maybe six or so that you know, I went out to eat with or something like that from time to time So yeah, that was pretty cool. I actually didn't go to many talks I went to like to the first day then I got tired and I was still working on my own presentation So I had to do that mine was like late second the second day, but again lots of people came Oh, yeah, I also had a subscriber who was like, I don't even know how old he was But he must have been like around eight or something I mean he was he was pretty young and he like asked for my autograph and stuff which It's pretty funny. So shout outs to him Anyway, let's see anything else. Yeah, so I'll put the talk up. Let me one complain about linux fest What is mosquitoes one complain about linux fest is there a couple? It was mostly well prepared But the presentation rooms they only had hdmi connectors and that was in a huge deal But it basically made recording the way they wanted to impossible if you had display port or vga Which you would think that's something that linux fest would prepare for but It was okay for me. I will say the presentation before mine was by a guy named Named, I think michael tunnel or something like that. I wasn't familiar with him I think he's one of the jupiter broadcasting guys. I'm not exactly sure but I went to his talk And he couldn't connect his computer at all. So it basically because they hadn't like prepared for not having For having like display port or vga. It basically ruined the guy's talk. I sort of feel bad for him But yeah, so he had to like sort of do it on a chromebook and of course chromebooks, you know Are pieces of crap and they don't have most of the keys you need So yeah, but when I my term came up, I thought I'd be okay because I had to display port but they couldn't take that either So I ended up just being like, you know what just find me a vga cord. I'm going to connect directly to the projector And I'll just record for my own computer, which thankfully I can do because you know, I'm a youtuber Or well because I know how to do it, I guess So anyway, but the presentation went fine. I got a lot of good feedback Um, probably about half the people in the room were my subscribers and the rest of them were sort of older linux guys Who, uh, you know, probably hadn't heard of me But you know, I just wanted to see the talk or something like that But I was really good generate a lot of discussion and I met some pretty cool people um, so And I was like, oh yeah, and then the day after on sunday me and I think there are four other guys Well three other guys and one girl Went to church just because I don't know like the day before we were driving around And we saw this really nice church. I think it was like first baptist of charlotte And we sort of ironically were like, hey dude, we should totally go there You know, it's really it looks like a nice place But we ended up going there, you know, just because I don't know did do something different. Don't regret it It was pretty cool. I mean it was all right But yeah, that was just to do something different because we were tired of linux Um, but yeah, uh, otherwise like I honestly didn't go to that many talks Just met a bunch of people sort of worked on different things and uh, a subscribe Well, not a subscriber some guy. I met up with the guy I had known beforehand I didn't know it was going to be a linux fest, but he actually gave me a ride back So I didn't have to wait for the bus the next day. So Anyway, that's about it. Um, so yeah, linux fest again. It wasn't uh, it wasn't bad It was it was actually pretty good. It was nice meeting you guys who were out And you know, those of you who were too awkward to introduce yourself. It was nice to meet you too I mean, I could tell I could tell you're like awkwardly trying to you know Find a good opening to introduce yourself. But uh, you know, no no shame in that Maybe next year I might go next year And you can see me then again. Um, so anyway, that's about it for linux fest I will put my talk up which I did record But of course, it's not going to be with the fancy obs stuff that they have where it records my face Actually, oh geez just got a raindrop on the the Lens here, but anyway, it's not going to have like my face on it because I don't know if they recorded it They might I might want to email them, but um, well, anyway, that's about it So I'll see you guys next time and I I got lots of stuff to do But hopefully I'll be having videos up really soon because again I know I've been busy the past couple weeks So I haven't been able to put stuff out, but uh, I'll see you guys Let me get rid of this. I will see you guys next time. So, sorry pointing to the wrong day. There it is All right. See you Okay, now it's not turning off The screen is too wet. I hope no one is still watching turn off this video Oh god, this is gonna take forever to get rid of There's rain all over my screen. You know what? I'm gonna be too lazy to edit this out Hold on
