Hi, I’m Pintu Biswas, someone curious about technology — how things work, why they break, and the satisfaction of finally making them work again. After more than a decade on Windows, I recently switched to Linux. Leaving behind something familiar wasn’t always easy, and the transition came with plenty of challenges.

But every problem I faced became part of the learning process. Along the way, I quickly learned that many tutorials skip the small details that actually matter, assuming you already know the parts you’re still trying to understand. Solutions often look perfect in theory, but don’t always work in real situations. That’s why I started this blog.

This is a place where I share what actually works for me, what doesn’t, and what I learn through experimenting and solving problems. If something I discover saves you even a little time or frustration, then writing it is worth it. This blog is my way of learning in public.

If you’re learning on your own, figuring things out through trial and error, or have ever felt stuck following a tutorial that skipped an obvious step, you’re in the right place. You don’t need to be an expert to find something useful here — I’m not one either. Thanks for being here. I’m learning as I go, and you’re welcome to learn along with me.
