He lived with his parents [[Diana Adams|Diana]] and [[Ben Adams|Ben]] Adams and his younger sister [[Jasmine Adams|Jasmine]] in an apartment in Manly, Sydney until January 21st, 2018, where they moved into a house in Hobart, Tasmania.

In December 2020, Oscar Liang (''MightyEagle73''), content creator and veteran patron of OSFirstTimer's now-closed Patreon page, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPonsYts6Dk&list=PLhQFtoCivDjbOESSIlKfg8GuIuORro2l8 drove down to Tasmania from Sydney] with his dad and met up with Philip on 11th of December 2020. He helped Philip record and edit the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wf6GnHq0ys&t 2020 Gaming Through The Ages Episode] on OSFirstTimer, which was published four months later. He then returned to Philip's house on the 14th of December 2020 and they had their final talk before Oscar went back to Sydney.
As his main computer, Phil currently uses an Mwave custom-built PC, which the specs are listed of in OSFirstTimer's ''[https://www.youtube.com/c/OSFirstTimer/about About]'' section. A Samsung Galaxy S10+ phone, with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage space, was used as his phone and camera, until he replaced it with a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 in December 2021. His previous computer, an Alienware Area 51 from 2014, was replaced by his current one due to failing hardware, and the PC before that, a Lenovo ThinkStation was used but replaced with the Alienware PC due to increasing slowdown as well as increasing hardware incompatibility with newer software. He also used to own a Microsoft Surface Pro 3, but he sold it in 2019, due to his phone being capable enough to replace a portable computer for him.
==Early life==
As a child, Philip loved playing the educational game ''
Diana and Philip tried getting ''Math Blaster'' at the shop, but couldn't find it. Philip, upset, bought some other educational games. After playing the games, he
Sometime in the period from 2002-2004 (likely 2002), Philip visited
Philip spent years exploring Windows
On May 12, 2008, Philip started a project named [[Massive Archive]], in which he tries to vlog almost anything every day, including his thoughts, activities and family-related things. He started uploading some of these vlogs in early 2015, but before that, he did not have the intention of making it public. In February 2019, he even decided to do a series named ''OSFT Archive'' on the channel [[OSFT Historic VLogs]]. It is a summary/commentary series of the vlogs contained in the archive, where Philip compares his past and present self and points out other differences and ''bad/unprofessional'' things. The series' episodes represent each month since the beginning of the archive (e.g.: ''Episode 1 - May 2008, Episode 2 - June 2008, etc.'').

He eventually became bored with the same games, since he wanted to play new ones (which he couldn't do, due to not finishing the games he'd started). By this point,
They used what they called the ''shaky cam'' method, until the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5AMQJokcwU Windows 95 video], where they started to use a screen recorder to show the operating system and a green screen to show Diana and Ben. On May 17, 2014, Philip started to make ''Dad Tries Out'' videos. OSFirstTimer also does tutorials, unboxings, and used to do Q&A videos as well. Philip even published the video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOLGm0W9QZc ''OSFirstTimer - House Tour!''] to the channel, which is a tour of their old apartment.

A month after creating [[OSFirstTimer]] in 2012, Philip started the [https://www.youtube.com/user/TerrifiedMum TerrifiedMum] YouTube channel where he gets Diana to play scary games as decided by Phil or requested by the viewers. As of November 2018, the channel is inactive. The channel started with a brief playthrough of the original Slenderman game, then went on to other titles, including Oculus Rift games. The content later expanded to include a reaction video series named ''Diana Watches''. TerrifiedMum last uploaded on August 14, 2017.

Up to this day, Philip and his parents had to do several long-term tasks and/or jobs, leading to Philip having less and less time to maintain his channels and produce, edit and upload videos. This was especially apparent in the years 2013, 2015, 2016, 2019, with 2015 and 2019 being the most dormant years of the OSFirstTimer channel. When he did have time, it was most likely that his mother Diana didn't, leading to further delays of episodes. To avoid further dormancy, he started his Gaming Through The Ages series in December 2015 and the OSFT Archive series in February 2019, with the latter being due to the renovations in their house. According to Philip, these series are much easier to produce episodes of, as it doesn't require him to edit videos as professionally as he would normally do for OSFirstTimer episodes. However, with all that happening and being done, many of his subscribers still aren't happy about the continuous dormancy of OSFirstTimer, which has resulted in many hate comments so far.
