"I was born in a small rural town, where i have many friends. I still live there, but there are so many smaller rural towns around me. Minnesota is such a big state, so many small nothing-towns for people to live in. My town is sorta bigger than the ones i think about. I started playing guitar when i was 9. I knew jack-shit about music other then "oh i like this band". Now music is my main thing. In 2nd grade my teacher made us do some tests. I got into an "enrichment class". We had a new teacher for it in 3rd grade. She was cool. you know who you are, if youre reading this, you are part of the reason i got into coding. so thanks. anyways i got into Linux earlier this year, the idea of an operating system that you, the user, had full controll over? i was in. mid augest i switched. im really bad at coding, so i decided to make my own Debian based distro. i love debian. i started out with [linux] mint and switched to fedora for only 3 hours, then went to debian. i have not went back since. i like the freedom of linux, but debian xfce (my setup) has too much bloat but my HP ENVY M6 1205dx is such an old shitty laptop (that i love) that it needs xfce or it overheats and takes 20 mins to open a program (with xfce, it just takes 2 and a half ! :D) I am into old web stuff, i mean i didnt exactly experience it but it looks cool, so i joined some sites. im a big big skeuomorphism guy, but this distro [RuralOS] wont have skeuomorphism, why? idk some people dont like skeuomorphism and RuralOS is meant for everyone. Also i hate ai, i will never use ai for anything."
