“Dee Tee” 😂

[@justsomeguy8385]

Linux and FOSS are great, but I can't imagine talking about it consistently for years.

[@heroe1486]

You can if you go deeper into the subject like djware does, otherwise it's pretty quickly a loop, but it requires expertise

[@MrJakeTucker]

Good luck with the new channel Derek. As I was watching this video, before you said what exactly the new channel is about, I was hoping the new channel might be about your musical adventures.

[@fixer1140]

His name is Derek? 😂

[@user-uf4rx5ih3v]

Me too. I'm also getting into music and would love to see more stuff of it.

[@deultima]

Maybe he will eventually get there, but financial channels get the highest paid ads, so it's a smart move.

[@vickys.2348]

Congrats on your new channel! Sometimes, change is good and necessary.

[@hasanpasha01]

You look nice wearing glasses 😎

[@jasperzanjani]

🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈

[@bvd_vlvd]

They make him look more like a musician lol

[@shadowcomputing]

@@jasperzanjani Literally nobody cares rn

[@twb0109]

He looks younger haha

[@tmaioli]

I too have interests outside Linux, that too being the Financial Markets, what a coincidence. Looking forward to it.

[@paolocutilli]

The clear explaination you spread across your Linux Channel videos, is the best guarantee for my understsnding the complicated world of options. Congrats and thanks a lot!

[@evolv_85]

I was hoping for a music channel and then bam, options! Very cool and interesting. Looking forward to your content because you're a reputable creator.

[@correorodi]

your voice and pace reserves to be heared with other words coming through to us :)

[@amiraloi1694]

Please add the new channel to the "channels" part of your profile so that more people can find it😊

[@Jeff_Seely]

Since I have begun watching your channel, all I've wanted for you was to have joy in regard to this channel. I know it can wear on you and burn you out. Take more vacations and more frequent breaks to avoid burnout ! And so, best wishes man in starting the new channel. I hope you have fun with the new project and hope you achieve your goals with that channel. Peace

[@oldradioguy65]

Congrats on your new channel! Keep up the good work!!

[@RandyHanley]

This is awesome! I didn't know you were that much into music, but that's awesome. I played drums professionally, in the studio, teaching, etc, but ended up in IT. Can't wait to follow your new journey. I always noticed that you know your audio signal-to-noise ratio, seeing how you setup your audio/levels very well and using a true broadcasting, non-USB-only Mic!

[@jackkeifer]

This is really cool Derek! For the past several months I've been toying with the idea of starting a Forex / Futures trading channel, this is wild! I don't know anything about options, but I'll definitely be subbing & following along ...really excited for you Derek! 👍👍

[@DistroTube]

Thanks, Jack! Appreciate your support. :D

[@Trafotin]

I'll freely admit I've been critical about how you conduct your channel, but I think this video shows the kind of person you are. It shows that you are willing to listen to people and that you care. For all the years you've been on KZbin, we respect the hustle and understand that it's a big step. From evangelizing Emacs to investing money. KZbin pays us nothing and it can be extra hard as a full-time creator to keep the show going. Good luck DT (and Glasses DT best DT).

[@DistroTube]

Thanks! While I certainly plan on helping people get their financial lives in order, the Emacs videos are definitely not going to stop. :D

[@hotrodjones74]

Ahah another Linux musician! 🐧🤘🎸 Edit: I'm moving in the the financial services myself. What a coincidence! I know a lot less about tech and Linux than you do however.

[@viking.442]

Congrats! Subscribed to dtoptions! 😀

[@Selbstdenkender]

I've been enjoying your Linux content for years and am looking forward to learn trading that I hardly know anything of. Good luck with your new channel!

[@ProVrakian]

Thank you so much, man. I’ll speak for myself when I say you introduced me to a LOT of programs and functionality that has made my quality of life immeasurably better. Thanks, again.

[@eljesco8945]

You've been a great source of inspiration and information all these years...One more channel?? Let's gooooo!!! Good luck with it!

[@gaathastory]

1500 videos ! No wonder my feed is filled with DT’s awesome videos. Love your content, learnt a lot, best wishes with the new project…🎉

[@NewLondonMarshall]

Love your new glasses DT! It's amazing how anti-reflective they are assuming your monitors are on in front of you and I can barely see them!

[@thomascovert6799]

This is great news. I can't tell you how much you have helped me with Arch Linux and shown me so many commands I didn't even know about even though I Use FreeBSD and Hyprland as my main system. You do such a great job I could not stand Vim but because of you, I'm hooked on it of course I now use neovim (Lazyvim) all because of you. I just installed Doom emacs on FreeBSD. Well, I cant wait to watch your new channel. Thank you so much for such great videos and your photographic memory how you remember it all blows my mind. Thank you for all the great years Thomas.

[@PauloConstantino167]

nice to see you expand. all the best

[@kayachan5198]

it was 1 of your videos on openbox and arch that got me interested, now here i am daily driving nixos, excited to see waht the new channel brings

[@AbuMaxime]

Excellent. Going to keep an eye on this one too

[@Sharp931]

Let me guess, Hair Tube?

[@Ar1yan824]

Maybe yes😂

[@Texas_Radical]

Hey DT, I've watched you from "next door" for years and think your channel and you and I are very much alike in alot of ways (other than our hair being polar opposites) I can't wait to see the new channel and I hope you do it from a ground up as I have NO idea the nuts and bolts of any kind of trading but it sounds like something I'd be into. Also I'd love to get a copy of the new book especially if it is offered digital. I'm not so much an ink and paper reader. Please tho keep up this channel, you have a great thing here. Also I'd love to see a guest appearance colab with switched to Linux on your channel. I feel yall would have good on camera energy together. Anyways, great news and tons of luck with the new venture.

[@JethroDawnfine]

Cool. I've been studying Future Indexes, Forex and Cryptos... just subscribed to your new channel ;)

[@jongdonglu]

I dont care what you make a channel about ill watch, i came here for linux but stayed for you and your personality. Keep it up DT we stand with you, where you go we march! :D gonna be interesting to see how the linux guy does trading!

[@sdrobinson2000]

I get it. I have ADHD and I have to have a cycle breaks. I'll probably checkout your other channel.

[@zoltan1953]

Just subbed to the new channel. Definitely gonna watch those videos because options trading is something that I've wanted to get into for a long time, but just never really knew how.

[@adibhanna]

Excited for you!

[@elkiebeerepoot5829]

Subscribed. Looking forward to your new videos.

[@BowieKenneth]

Thank you DT, you helped me a lot. I did small script your channel. When you start your another channel, let me know.

[@MichaelVash7886]

Would be interested to see what you did for the book from a software standpoint

[@ronsingh]

Wow, damn! Good on you Sir! Subbed! Always been afraid of options, always(20+ years) doing pair trades, momentum and the like. Yeah fin freedom is where it's at and I preach that to any and all open ears:-) Now, I just have to check to see if Amaz Canada carries the book. This is exciting, indeed -- my son's just doing final proofs on his 1st book on fruiting trees(he's an agri guy) as a way to branch out in his field of plant genomics. All the best, Derek and congrats!

[@DistroTube]

Thanks, Ron. Great to hear about your son and his upcoming book on agriculture. Hell, I'm proud of him and I don't even know him. ;)

[@giuskywalkerxyz]

do you recommend your book for actual beginners that want to start on options?

[@thefrankring]

That's why, I'm currently building a PERSONAL KZbin channel under my own name. If you keep things personal and under your own name, then you're not limited to ONE thing. Congratz with the book and the new channels!

[@zonnodon163]

You are right about in the last segment. It takes effort and discipline!

[@delfipotters3161]

I appreciate all the help you've given us thus far with linux and FOSS. You've been a huge help to me.

[@SunsetNova]

Good luck bro

[@tylower]

Awwwww shizzle!!! DT talkin $$$? Subscribed.

[@SuperGinkgo]

What DAW do you use? I use Bitwig... it runs native on Linux supposedly (never tried). Good on you for branching out.

[@arnoldlevy8170]

I'm a system administrator and I love your POV about open source, I'm sure I'll love your POV about financial freedom. You didn't say it in this video but yes, It's all about freedom. Many of us will follow you because we trust you. I mean you have your own way of seeing things, sometimes we are not according with you but at the end we Know what you're doing is "right". At least it is not "wrong" and this is much better than what most financial advisors can do.

[@hexisXz]

I was waiting for this video

[@jaronensley]

Subscribed DT good luck.

[@gflorin7761]

Hey DT! What is your favorite musical instrument? Would love to hear you play something :)

[@DistroTube]

DT on the recorder: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2mxi6WIfJWtnJo DT on the trombone: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnrLmZV9rdytnM0

[@PopsSinging]

I subscribed to your new channel. I also love music, I have zero formal education in music and just play instruments by ear and sing, I started as a childhood church choir singer and karaoke singer and just started making music one day. Would love to see some music content from you, maybe on music theory.

[@zoltantoth1566]

Now i have been listening to the video for 3 minutes and i still do not have any idea what the other channel is going to be about.

[@Winnetou17]

Why the hell do you have to waste your, and everyone else who's reading this, time with this comment ?

[@jagritpareek5999]

Only been a Sub for a year but I Love your videos man!! Great work!!

[@markhckidz87]

Just curious, do you still keep your old (first year) raw video? I'm curious how big is your storage drive to store all your video.

[@skorpiosmain]

How do you know he shoots in raw video? You can't import raw video to kdenlive.

[@helloimatapir]

@@skorpiosmain Pretty sure he just means the original video files / unedited content.

[@skorpiosmain]

@helloimatapir yap but that's not raw video :p

[@RadioTeal]

Great to see you branching out. Best of luck to you.

[@DistroTube]

Thank you, sir. Appreciate the support!

[@TDOLLA]

wow, I wasn’t expecting a financial channel but I am here for it. Sign me up

[@douglas7656]

i'll be following you dt!

[@capability-snob]

Whenever people talk about their passion, I hear David Mitchell describing the implications of being "passionate about sofas". 😉💪

[@ravenstone01]

This will be nice, we can see how you use Linux in your daily life, at least when it's computer related. I think it will be cool.. Thanks DT let me know when it's up.

[@YocedEcoy]

someone i can trust! i will definitely subscribe.

[@torspedia]

I hope that the new channel goes well for you. 🙂

[@mrkrud]

It's never a surprise to hear a tech enthusiast is also a writer or musician. Consider me a double subscriber....maybe I should learn a little about money too..... As for your writing ideas it would be very cool to see you collaborate with The Linux Cast. I think I remember him saying that writing is his day job. Would be great to have a writing seminar where the audience is assumed to be tech saavy.

[@DistroTube]

Computers/Science/Math and Music kind of go hand in hand. There is very much a math element to music, so it kind of makes sense that so many techies are also musically inclined.

[@emem666]

To be fair I wouldn't mind if you used this channel instead of starting a new one. Your video about freedom and guns that you own is one of my favorite ever! The best of the best of KZbin.

[@shatterstone3045]

Hey DT! 2 questions: 1. Did you write the book in Emacs? And 2. How will the new channel affect your upload schedule?

[@zZGzHD]

More DT is always welcome!

[@theoriginalneckbeard]

The question is how interested your current community is in hearing you talk about things other than Linux and IT and how well you'll be perceived by viewers inside the other bubble. I wish you good luck, though.

[@eliosilva401]

good topic, good luck

[@chillonfunsmart4929]

Can we expect your new channel to be on user respecting platforms like Odysee and rumble?

[@donnie3764]

Please do some music. You are really good at it.

[@classifiedlegendary]

hey DT, Are you going to have it on LBRY/Odysee aswell

[@andrewjohnson8662]

Looking forward to the crossover where you recommend trading software/platforms that work well on Linux :)

[@DistroTube]

I have actually talked about trading software on Linux in a couple of videos before. I may do a deeper dive into this in the future.

[@joshuacacy-mcfarland644]

Thank you DT!

[@dev_insights783]

Great good Idea !

[@Tvirus12]

Advertisements on financial KZbin channels pay more. Also a lot of the big financial channels don't know shit about finance, so why not.

[@115breno]

Dt, why you don't do music stuff?

[@nikii1277]

hey dt, would you mind reviewing an amazing rhythm game that is open source (at least the client is open)? it's called osu!lazer, and it had the "performance points" release right at the end of January.

[@christer8964]

An option channel!!! So our hobbies meets again. Same haircut, same googles, Linux, ..., but I guess you not into RC planes as well? Looking forward to watch the new channel.

[@uMalice]

Thanks for your linux videos. Your videos got me away from using DE's and now I use WM's only. I'm so much happier and effective linux user. Best wishes with your new channel.

[@metalfiregametime652]

I think that would be a great channel to start. I don't even know how to start investing in stocks. If I knew how to trade in stocks I would have started a long time ago. The general public goes to public schools and learn to be an employee and doesn't even learn how to invest.

[@alannssantos]

Was it just me? Or did anyone else open the calendar to see if it was April 1st?

[@advaitc2554]

Hi DT, Luv your videos. They've helped me a lot on my Linux journey. In regards to freedoms I like to think about freedoms from a class and political power perspective. From that perspective there are 2 main freedoms: 1. The freedom to exploit people and the environment and 2. Freedom from exploitation (exploitation by the dominant, powerful class). The tension between these two have greatly influenced history and societies. Best Wishes! 😊

[@reece2080]

Love the Linux content, but I'm happy to see you're able to peruse your other interests on KZbin! I've never heard of options trading before, but it sounds interesting. I am 21 years old and graduating from college in December, so I've been looking for ways to start saving money for my future. I will for sure checkout those videos, you have my sub!

[@gatakamsky9998]

For your book, I recommend you a very nice text editor, it's called Microsoft Word. You'll love it

[@BobDoe_69]

I happen to be into options too, following

[@dropshot1967]

Even though it is not something I am not interested in the subject of your new channel, I hope it will be a success for you.

[@bobgrimes8618]

I was thinking you might do a music channel, as you are an accomplished classical musician.

[@DistroTube]

Not completely ruling it out at some point in the future. But music channels on KZbin....I'm not sure I could offer anything that unique or useful. But who knows. Maybe one day..

[@starymarine]

DT, make video about CWM window manager. I see you stick to these you feel comfortable with most of the time. Show us CWM. Also i wish you all the best with new channel 🙂.

[@donnie3764]

You could call it "Taylored", maybe.

[@PoeLemic]

I think it is great what you are suggesting at 5:20 about the options channel. Because I would love to know how you invest, because I think we probably have similar viewpoints on investment. Even though I don't option trade, I invest in very conservative, but rewarding ways that are slow to give yields. For me, I don't take that much risk, so I'd like to see how you view investments. And, I'd like to learn from you.

[@BWGPEI]

It's a sad fact of human life that too much of any one thing brings boredom. Meantime, other interests is very good as you get older. All the best with the new channel.

[@ringo8410]

It's seemed for a while now that there have been lots of other subjects, including music and even touching on political stuff, that you've wanted to talk about but you were constrained because 'DistroTube is a Linux channel'. Good luck!

[@JarrodHenry]

I think of all things, DT has made it clear repeatedly he absolutely doesn't want to talk about politics.

[@SB-qm5wg]

YT's best years are in the review mirror

[@gordonfreimann]

subbed!

[@eliezerjose]

There is this guy that has a YT channel reacting to video clips and I like the content very much. After a while, he built almost a million subscribers and started a second channel where he talks about politics and other things lawing related. I disagree with his politics view, but I think it`s nice to see more of the person of self, we are more than just content.

[@borisoid]

WindowzTube lets gooo

[@Ralphunreal]

cool, i was interested in learning about stocks and dont know anything about it. some beginner videos would be good.

[@edubs9828]

What an absolute legend.

[@MerkDolf]

Did it launch yet? I come by and give you a 👍 & asub

[@WaliaIbex]

I learned about AM (Application Manager ) from DT I hop I will learn from OPTIONS 🎉🎉🎉 good luck

[@christer8964]

An Emacs channel?

[@i--i4933]

subbed :)

[@erics7004]

You need one channel only for Arch and another one for Xmonad!
