Yeah I think he's a tech guy...he just doesn't know how to build computers (that was painful to watch).
By saying he's not a tech guy probably just means he's not a programmer. But with how he's done everything he definitely has the chops to be one.
He seems to be a guy that really likes to tinker with things. And those are the kind of people that Linux, especially arch, really latches onto.
I remember when he played minecraft and made a redstone contraption to auto-feed villagers or something. He started by saying that he wasn't good at redstone and proceeds to show something so complex that I would have to follow a tutorial to make it.
He has a degree in industrial engineering according to Wikipedia, logical thinking should come naturally to him. My high school decades ago teaches logic gates for it's computer literacy curriculum. He might not be a programmer, but probably has exposure to these topics in general education.
I mean no offence to you. But education departments these days assume "kids have phones and iPads and must be computer geniuses" and stop teaching general computer courses. That's a problem.
I am a programmer, and I can barely put together a latch in redstone. Anyone that programs redstone is a "tech guy" to me (whether they can build a PC or not).
