Hey guys,

Do you ever play a song on guitar, and it doesn’t feel right for some reason, then you go back and watch a live performance and realize you’ve been playing it on a wrong guitar. Then once you play it on the right guitar it’s just satisfying and you probably won’t sleep over how satisfying that shit was?

Or you are learning a song off tabs and are confused about finger placement until you either watch a performance or say “fuck it” and try to learn by ear.

Early in my guitar learning, I was so lost on how to play any Jimi Hendrix, then I looked up his performances. Dude literally played guitar backwards. Written tablature will not capture that essence ahaha.

No Robert Johnson? Fuck this list

Lost my favorite dog today. Maisey and I grew up together--we had her since before I started kindergarten--and I'm glad she's been with us for so long. I'm glad to have been with her one last time a few days ago. See you at the crossroads.

Natural part of growing as a guitarist. In fact even though I've been playing for eight years, I've only been comfortable with 3+ note chords (excluding power chords or octave chords) for the past two years.

Let’s talk about Linux

Operating Systems come in many shapes and sizes. Probably the best known right now are OS X (by Apple) and Windows 7, 8, 10. These are not the only Operating Systems available though. In fact, they are not even close. So here is a brief introduction to Linux, an operating system far more varied and customizable than its purchasable counterparts.

Above are a few of the logos. The first is of the Linux Tux, the mascot for all of Linux. The rest are the logos of different versions of linux (referred to as distributions). So we know that Linux is an operating system, but why are there so many? How are they different? And if they are all different, then why are they all called Linux?

To start with the similarities, lets look at what Linux actually means. At its foundation, “Linux” just means “Unix-like operating system”. It is generally free and open source, and is based off of the Linux kernel, written in 1991 by Linus Torvalds.

So all the distributions of Linux are in the same category, but what makes them different? Above is a graphical history of Linux. Each split represents the birth of a new distribution, when a significant change was made to the distribution. Check out the full graphic here. Many of these splits were made because someone found that there wasn’t a distribution of Linux that worked exactly how they wanted it to, so they made a change to an existing one. The number of different versions may seem daunting, but the reality is that every single one was created by people just like you and me.

So where do you start?

Whether you want to jump in and install Linux as your primary distribution, dual-boot it alongside another Operating System, or just try it out on a bootable USB, there is a large community of Linux enthusiasts to help you through every bump in the road. If you have never used Linux before, pick a distribution with a very large community behind it, such as (but not limited to) Ubuntu, Debian, or Mint.

Happy Installing!

I made an almost-complete switch from OS X to Fedora 24 the other day and I'm loving it. I hope to get enough experience in learning and manipulating Linux to the point of getting certified.
