  • Udemy has a great piano course that you can pick up cheap (€11ish) if you visit it in incognito mode in your browser it’ll offer you a discount. The course is called piano for all. That’s how I learned and people tell me I’m pretty good.

    Courses about how to make money online come down to drop shipping and/or affiliate marketing. But both of those need you to build an audience which is the hardest part, or just flood Facebook with ads, which costs money that people trying to make money…usually don’t have

    Picking up women courses. No. Don’t do it. If you can talk to a guy, you can talk to a girl, just don’t be a misogynist or a pushover and you’ll be ahead of the pack. Go to a meetup.com group in your hobby interest and stay casual.

    If you want to learn something useful consider coding codeacademy.com or video editing insidetheedit.com . The video editing course teaches some cool meta skills too like how to move forward in the industry. How to handle screaming bosses etc, which in some ways is more helpful knowledge and can probably help(transfer) a little with your dating life too.













  • Don’t install windows on it too, unless you REALLY need to. Just use the Linux desktop environment it comes with and find Linux programs that will meet your needs. It can not edit videos over 1 minute long without really chugging. It works great as a music daw though if that’s your thing.

    Adding windows to the mix makes it less stable, and you’ll need to do a special sequence of buttons every time you boot.

    +If you do some edgecase tinkering, you may loose your work when it updates.

    That being said, I love this aspect of the device and have Windows booted on it. I treat the instability like a fun puzzle. You gotta be into that if your going to do it. +learning Linux stuff is good nerdy fun.

    The best tip I have though, is if you are into fps. Use the right trackpad to aim, set it up so 1 swipe from left to right rotated you 180 degrees and set up the LEFT trigger to fire. It’s a little backwards feeling, but once you get it, you’ll never go back. Took me a year before I could comfortably play fps on it. Then I learned that secret and finished the master chief collection with it. There are vids out there to explain it more thoroughly.

    Last tip. Smelling the fan exhaust is absolutely worth the health risk 👍
