Obviously at that age my knowledge of coding and window managers wasn't exactly deep and i mostly only had seen other OS from magazines. I don't think I even knew what 'drag-n-drop' was and was a bit confused at what the Trash bin should do (i loaded code from tapes).
Good times i guess :)
It's not perfect but it removed a lot of useless stuff like all the times i mistyped '--recurse-submodules' or the times I went into a folder only to realize it was not the correct folder for what I was trying to do.
Funnily enough r/k8s was not on the list.

The EU has banned poultry meat from the US on psytosanitary grounds for more than two decades.
The biggest mistake beginners do is too much water/to frequent waterings. When pests/disease appear ask in reddit until you start identifying the problems yourself but if a plant has enough sun, water and soil (don't overcrowd a small pot) and the temperature is correct for it to grow don't expect many problems.
If you don't have enough sunlight for fruits you can start with herbs like basil, parsley and coriander. Cherry tomatoes will probably also work but don't expect a huge harvest without appropriate sunlight. Carrots are a tiny bit harder to grow but I got a few to grow in a pot near a window so it's not impossible but they do like a lot of fertilizer.
- Learn the hardiness of your area. This will tell what type of vegetables you can grow.
- Check how many _direct_ sunlight hours your balcony gets every day.
- Choose the vegetables you want to plant based on the two points above (hardiness and sunlight hours). Example: if you have lots of sunlight plant full size tomatoes. If you have less than ideal sunlight exposure plant cherry tomatoes.
- Learn what you can plant in each season and when to fertilize. Liquid fertilizer is your best bet in a small apartment.
- In a balcony on a tall building, wind is the enemy.
- If you get many hours of direct sunlight (6+) and your balcony faces south you can grow almost anything there.
- Prefer a few big pots to many small ones: A few big pots means less variety but will require less maintenance, watering and the plants will be stronger because their pot is bigger. I have 70L pots and they're great. I would bother with less than 20L.
- Some fruit plants will take more than 10 years to give you fruit and others can't self-pollinate. Avoid those at least when starting out. Radish grows in less than 30 days.
- I've successfully planted and harvested Raspberries, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, peppers, strawberries, carrots, parsley, radish and basil in a small balcony that isn't even south facing in Lisbon. It never produced enough calories but it was fun and the produce was very tasting. I tried to plant cantaloupe twice but it failed mostly because of the wind (I think).
- I prefer store bought soil with added perlite and textile pots. Perliet and textile pots improve root health in small pots.
Obviously saying 'could' is not the same as saying 'should' and it's not very safe to do drastic changes to your diet without consulting a MD.
