How I learned to do the stuff I do
❌ School
❌ Uni
✅ Screwing around on my computer
oh I know what uni gave me:
- The tablet I use
- Photoshop which I don't use anymore
- A scanner
- A few books which are actually p good
Not worth £17,000 in student debt, but yanno
@dzuk same I feel like I paid 15k€ for a bunch of free windows license keys tbh
@vfrmedia @Siphonay I think all of formal education is mostly fucked tbh.
If you're not into maths/sciences/the kind of stuff that actually requires a qualification to demonstrate knowledge/skill and you're into weird alternative media / uncharted territory like I constantly was, you just get constantly told what you want to do doesn't matter and nobody actually teaches you anything you couldn't do with an internet connection and a little spare cash.
@Siphonay wow, this means I might already have dropped out of uni before @dzuk was *born*, and yet things have really not got any better in the European higher education system after that time, thats some indictment on society TBH...
