DON'T LIVE YOUR LIFE ON THE INTERNET (or attached to the screens)

-

 The internet usage has boomed in the recent years and almost everyone on the internet. I don't need to quote surveys or studies, just look around you and you will find the people glued to the screens. I think majority of people's answer to their phone usage is they're doing something productive on it or they use it only for being productive, but let's be realistic we are not using it for anything other than entertainment. Even those who have a delusion that they are being productive or they are doing the work on the mobile spend most of their time watching shorts or tik-tok.

Prolonged usage of the internet makes you:

- anxious and depressive

- gives you bad posture

- it fries your last two brain cells left

- reduces your sleep quality and mess with your eyesight. 

- destroys your attention span and mess with your brain

It is not a conspiracy theory that the tech companies hire psychologist/neurologist to design their "platforms" so that they can have you spend most of your time on their website. They are making their apps more addictive with every update. The companies want to milk your brain as much as they can and they don't give a shit about your mental health or your overall being. Only thing they want is to mint money at the expense of your health, privacy and personal data. I am not giving any conclusion to this post because I want the readers to think it for themselves and what should they do with this problem.

Windows LTSC

-
If you have clicked on this post, I am assuming you know what is Windows Operating System and have once used it in your life. If I have to give you a gist of this blog then it is that Windows LTSC is better than its consumer oriented version.  Windows LTSC is targeted mainly towards businesses but you can get it into your hands if you know how to sail a ship or boat. I have been using Windows 10 LTSC IOT for more than a year now as my main operating system, after ditching Linux for good. So, I think I am in a great position to review the LTSC.  The good things which I have discovered during my use are: Fast No Bloatware Low memory consumption as well as cpu It is faster than the Windows 10 Pro as it doesn't have "shiny" features Pro comes with. LTSC is the pretty bare bone Windows version and you will not get the MS Store apps or any other apps already installed as it doesn't come with MS Store pre-installed but you can install it later on, like I did. Lower amount of...

2026 is NOT the Year of Linux

-
 I was using Linux Mint secretively for four months and I have a lot to write about my experiences with it. Linux Mint is regarded as the newbie friendly distro, and it is true most of the time. But you have to make several changes to make it work as a normal windows 10 installation would work. I was using Linux Mint XFCE version, I know it is not their flagship version but I went with it because I had to use some statistics software for my final year graduation project. And my experience with it was pretty good expect some small things. The first issue was continuous stuttering and freezing of the desktop. It could be understandable if it was during the time of running resource intensive software but normal usage of Firefox browser also freeze my computer sometimes. The second issue was the screenshot application which comes pre-installed, it is not a faulty application but I think 4-5 clicks for capturing a screenshot is very time-wasting way of doing it, also it doesn't copy the...
