Hi everyone - this is kinda my member introduction I guess?
 

It's very nice to meet everyone - I first found Linus through his youtube videos and one of the ones I remember watching first was the video where their wives competed to build a PC. I've been binge watching Linus videos ever since and enjoy him reviewing all types of wacky and interesting new products and tech gizmos.

 

I am a 19 year old computer science student at the University of Surrey in the UK. I'm currently suffering from severe depression and anxiety as well as chronic pain and a possible high functioning autism diagnosis. I've recently lost my accomodation, lost thousands of pounds of money (due to personal circumstances) and a lot of my friends aren't talking to me. However; I am pushing through and doing my best to get better. I think it's about time for me to finally leave my mark on this world and hopefully it will be a big postive mark.

 

I actually would like the opportunity to have Linus mentor me and teach me about technology and provide some work for me; I have a lot of ideas and invention concepts for new gadgets and gizmos as well as ideas on how to improve and modify existing tech. Unfortunately due to my mental health I haven't been able to fully formalize or create any of these yet - but I am working my hardest on making them a reality. I've really started to push my mental health after enduring it for six years. My university course currently has a placement year; of which I was thinking about applying to Linus' company. I have already sent him a pm and an email about this and may make a post about it later. I have many interesting thoughts and ideas I want to share with the world and was thinking of becoming a youtuber to do so.

 

I may edit this post later if this was too immature or naive or if people have feedback or want to support me somehow. I will also add a link to some of my posts in the future if that is allowed? Thank you very much everyone for reading through this.

 

P.S Please keep a lookout for my name/user tags if you want: Yang-Jian Zhou/yjzhou/yjchess/chesscraft as I plan on creating a startup/youtube channel and making it big one day.

Also as a random question: Do anyone of you here play starcraft 2? Just out of curiousity.  I'd also like to add that I've already started asking some questions regarding tech and other information in other forums; I will be adding the tag yjzhou to my posts if that is allowed?


Thanks everyone for reading! Would love to meet you all

Welcome to the forums dude/dudette! In answer to your question, I play Starcraft II fairly often but never multiplayer, I just do the campaigns and skirmishes against the AI. Usually I make it so the AI cheats and I'm outnumbered and see how long I can hold out and/or actually win.
