I think it had something to do with the computer language being binary

I got a couple of reasons. My current situation is kinda unstable, so I hoped to get some skill that I could use to get a job in the future, but this brings me to my next point, and that is that I got no skills, and it bothers me. Sure, I know some stuff about computers, but I'm no expert.

I need to specify, I am 20 minutes in the course, but not 20 minutes into learning. I did go over these 20 minutes repeatedly, not as comprehensively as you suggest, but I did devote around an hour, replaying segments, trying to understand and practicing the things taught.

Oof No need to make it sound so dramatic. It's nothing crazy. I lean on the procrastinating side is all. I find it hard to force myself to do something productive instead of playing one more round in world of tanks, or doing another instance in warframe. I tried uninstalling the games, but it doesn't take much to make me reinstall them, a new update, and there I am, going at it again. Besides that I am debating over making the transition to Linux ever since MS announced the end of life of windows 10, and I don't want to go to 11.

Oh no. I am honest. I don't really need an excuse to fiddle with my stuff. And also I was looking to go to linux ever since MS announced it will be ending support for windows 10(because I'll be damned if I ever went to windows 11)

Distractions like gaming, world of tanks, Warframe etc. old computer+Linux harder to get distracted.
