I've never done a reaction video before but this one's special. Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux, recently revealed his favorite new hobby: building guitar effects pedals. Linus's reasoning for starting this hobby is extremely good and more people should considering getting into circuits, soldering, and DIY. I also spend a few minutes explaining why Linus is incorrect about all new pedals being digital. The truth is, both analog and digital are here to stay.
Stay tuned for more Linux, engineering, robotics, and guitar pedal videos.
