Browsing The Web In 2020: Is It Madness ?

Before presenting the web browsers which I consider are currently the best, I would like to express a concern of mine. I am worried about my privacy and my freedom. I am worried about the state of the internet, which is in a state of absolute ‘bloatness’. I am worried about the centralization of the world wide web, which is more and more limited to a few online platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, and other.

Cyber Threats: Beware Of The World Wild Web

My Dearest Mad-readers, Modern society probably never has been as perilous as in the past decade. The emergence of what experts enjoy calling cyber security demonstrates the fateful ill-being of the internet. Our world may never have seen such an enlightened era yet, ethically speaking, the tools humans play with have the capacity to bring as much good as bad. Disclaimer I may not be … Continue reading Cyber Threats: Beware Of The World Wild Web

Testing Out Artix: Another Flavor Or Arch Linux

Artix is essentially Arch Linux, except without systemd. It sounds a lot like what I am looking for, since it will allow me to run openrc. However, it is not a parent distribution. I would really like to read your opinion in the comments. I have been saying for quite a while that I do not see the point in installing the fork of another distribution, yet this time Artix really is bringing something interesting to the table.

What Is Your Reason For Getting Out Of Bed In The Morning ?

There is no time to go in the wrong direction or live somebody else’s life when one should be much too busy living their own. It does not matter whether you want to be extravagant, or out of the ordinary. Normality does not exist. It is merely an illusion which was invented for us to feel better about ourselves. Yet it is a terrible lie which you need to let go, for it is probably preventing you, right now, from making a dream come true.

Distro-Hopping Again: Confronting Distributions & Their Philosophies

For about one week or a little bit more, I have been thinking about distro-hopping again. I have enjoyed myself on Gentoo, I really have. I discovered USE FLAGS, C FLAGS, an almost flawless documentation, compiling every program from source, overlays (which are the equivalent of the Arch AUR, if you aren’t familiar with them), and countless other features which are specific to Gentoo.

Yet Another Gentoo Installation Guide

As I was recently suggested by one of my YouTube subscriber, I would like to explain how to install Gentoo. I will do every step I describe in a Virtual Machine, so that it is more clear for you. To get some more information regarding my Gentoo adventures, check out my other blog posts about Gentoo. You can also follow along with the Gentoo official documentation. For this guide, I will assume that all of you intend to work with a stage 3 tarball. If you wish to install Gentoo from a stage 1 or 2, this guide is not meant for you, since I consider you are in no need of my help at the level you have reached. Continue reading Yet Another Gentoo Installation Guide

Optimizing Your Computer’s Performance

This is no joke. Nowadays, normies spend most of their time on one single program : their web browser. What if one could strive to change this digital behavior, however? What if today was the day I managed to convince you to uninstall your display manager? If you are not running GNU/Linux or a Unix-like operating-system yet, I once heard that it is never too late… Continue reading Optimizing Your Computer’s Performance

Take Advantage Of Technology To Learn Foreign Languages

My Dearest Mad-Readers, I hope you all are doing well, in these dark times, but especially that you are capable of seeing the silver lining of the tiresome cloud which already has been obscuring our vision for far too long. Yes, a lot of us are stuck at home. However, this does not mean that one should remain idle and wait for the rain to … Continue reading Take Advantage Of Technology To Learn Foreign Languages
