What's up anyway?

You might wonder why nothing ever happens on my YouTube channel (or this blog for that matter) these days. I've said it before. No time. I barely even have the time to tweet, and that's supposed to be fast stuff. This post is just to let you know that I might be changing the direction of the multi8it project. What's to come?
  • More Linux related stuff.
  • Maybe some coding.
  • Probably some politic/hacktivist topics.
I'm really not sure where to take this, I just know that in order to put something out at all, it has to fit my way of life, and the points above are where most of my "computerly" interests are anyway, so sharing those interests will probably not feel like a chore.

Buh-bye!

Breaking the silence.

I've been quiet for a while. Mostly due to lots of work and family life, but also due to the fear of unsubscriptions that might follow if I flat out acknowledge that I'm not producing any more YouTube videos. I so wish I had the time, but sadly I don't.

Therefore I hereby announce that my YouTube series on MilkyTracker is being put on ice. For how long I can't tell. One of the main reasons is that it takes too much time. I'm not a good ad-libber, I want a script. This means I have to write one. This takes time. Then I go on to recording the voice over. This is usually done rather quickly. Then I shoot the screen captures, just to get it the way I want it. Sometimes it's one-shot, sometimes it involves several re-takes. Now for the real time consumer - putting it all together. I probably could do it faster with less texts and stuff flying by, but honestly, that's how I like the videos, and that was how I wanted the multi8it videos to look. If I stray from those ideals, I'm doing something I don't want to, and that's the easiest way of not getting it done at all.

So, what's on the horizon? I don't really know. I do know that I want to finish the series, but that's something I won't be able to do for some time. I also know that I want to do some videos on open source philosophy and maybe some hacktivism. These require less production compared, so maybe these will be easier getting done.

If any of the above interests you, by all means, stay subscribed. However, I do understand if you're disappointed and feel like you've been cheated (we never got to the effects and all that fun stuff).

I'd like to finish this post off by saying that I really enjoyed all the positive feedback. You really made me feel like I was contributing to the community.

Peace!
