Marcus Edward Butler
Hello, my name is Marcus and since I was 7 years old I've always loved working on computers. I started out playing in MS-Paint and learning my ABCs from starfall.com, to fixing problems on Windows and Linux, to making Windows 10 look and feel like Windows XP, writing my own games, computer applications, and important system utilities in Python3 and Bash, to managing my own Linux distro that I use for personal and school work.
Check out my About Me page to see what hard and soft skills I have, why I would like a software development job, and a updated picture of me.
If you are interested in hiring me feel free to use the form in the Contact page which will get forwarded to my personal email.
The only display layout this site is using is flexbox.
Why go and build my own operating system when their are thousands of others out there? I have two reasons why. One for fun, I really enjoy learning about computers a lot. Two I wanted something that would work well for me. dbD comes with all of the software that I use on a daily bases as well as some of my favorite open source games. It all started when I was using Windows 10 and though that some of the programs and overall user interface of the desktop environment would work better for me if I could go in and change it. Also I spend lots of time on my computers and wanted something a bit more me you could say. I found lots of programs that allowed you to change Windows interface for example: the boot screen, taskbar, start menu, little things like disabling windows aeroshake, making the windows taskbar smaller and changing the clock program in the right hand corner to something that could tell me the time and date as well as having the taskbar small. Eventually I got Windows 10 to have the window borders, and all user interface elements look like the Windows XP blue bliss theme, as well as the taskbar. All of the icons on the system were replaced with Windows Vista icons. Some of Windows 10's functions were replaced with with some of the ones I enjoyed from older versions of Windows. The start menu had the blue Windows XP bliss theme with a more modern looking start button for XP. I could go on and on about all of the changes I made to my Windows operating system.
But then I started watching Linux YouTuber's and saw that Linux offered tons of configuration options so after 2 years of switching to Linux I now use dbD which is a fork of Arch Linux, a Linux distro that comes with absolutely nothing unless you install it. Will not even come with a bootloader if you don't install and set one up.
