Haha your post made me reflect my journey. I had fun in college tinkering Arch Linux with i3. Now I'm an Infra Engineer (or DevOps Engineer, Platform Engineer, SRE, whatver) and still do the same job—keeping the system "reliable".

Similar story for me, Ubuntu w/ wobbly windows and desktop cube in Jr High (I was a particularly nerdy kid), arch w/ i3 in HS and college, now I'm a DevSecOps Developer (engineer is a sacred term in Canada)

Learning to do naughty things to the WEP wifi around me is what led me to now doing penetration tests at my org.

Funny how goofing around on a computer as a kid can lead to careers and passions.
