I know you’re too tired, and maybe too scared for a revolution – after all, the prevalent system is designed for having us believe we are helplessly unable to change it. Let us be honest: a revolution is on the horizon, and a revolution is needed. You know it, I know it. Without one, this form of greed inspired capitalism will not only remain, but grow a tiny bit more monstrous, ever so slightly more inhumane every day. We cannot allow for a system to dominate our lives, which rewards the worst instincts in us, and promotes the most unscrupulous of us to the top. This way, things will never get better – instead, they will become worse. If we do not overcome our (perceived) helplessness and tire, if we do not find the courage and strength to intervene, if we to do not do something – we will remain in the stranglehold of an asymmetrical financial system, and under the spell of a tiny fraction of extremely rich, powerful and influential people. There are alternatives – never believe anyone claiming there is none. The ideas are out there – they are right here, on this very site. I invite you to help yourself, and all those dear to you – and in the end, even the whole of humanity. For example, by spending five minutes with the intro article of this site you can see below. What could be more important, than take on the fight for a better tomorrow – for ourselves, our loved ones, our children? I'd like to ask you to move forward,, to join, I ask you to participate, and not remain dormant. Not remain helpless. Not remain uninformed and hence impotent. Simply by reading a few articles on this site, you may discover what is absolutely possible for a better future.

my workspace

Posted on October 5, 2020May 8, 2023 by amalius

As far as someone takes an interest, down below are some pictures of my workspace.

My computer setup is a 8-core 3,4 GHz Intel processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a cheap graphics card (I don’t game much), powerful enough to drive two Samsung IPS Panels at 4K. As you can see in the pictures, the housing of my PC is very small, based on the ITX-motherboard format. My keyboard is wired, which is an inconvenience, but has the upside of being illuminated. I do not mind the wire too much, as the keyboard usually remains in its place. My mouse is a relatively cheap wireless one, but has a “silent click” feature, so a click doesn’t make hardly any noise at all, which I like. I have two desktop lights, on the left the main one, which is LED, has three different lighting temperatures (from “cool”, bright white to “warm” softer light, which accommodates the my different lighting preferences from morning to night), and a second conventional lamp on the left. I put a lot of importance on my large black desktop pad, which lets my mouse glide very smoothly. It also covers and protects the surface of my full-wood desk.

My productive OS is elementaryOS – my favorite linux flavor. I keep a copy of windows at the ready, but for gaming purposes only.

And of course, in the times we live in, my hard drive is a Samsung 980 Pro M2 256GB SSD, fully encrypted (powered by LUKS – the linux partition manager that let’s you boot off of an encrypted partition/drive).

In the foreground of the left screen is a file manager, in the background my favorite editor for all coding purposes and needs: “Sublime Text”. On the right screen, the Linux-obligatory terminal in my color setting green text on black background.
