How to stay safe online

-

Date: 30:5:2024

Introduction

-

Computers are always at risk. No matter how much work you do or how hard you try, there will always be a way to hack your system. In this article I will share how I keep my computers safe and the tools I use to do so.

- -

Passwords

-

Passwords are the main way people get into our computers and online accounts. So it is key to have strong passwords, so hackers have a hard time finding out what the passwords are. So what does a strong password consist of? A strong password should consist of a sequence of special characters (like?, #, and $) and normal characters. A strong password should also not have any words found in the dictionary, so that rules out many people's passwords. -

-

An example of a weak password would be:
- Password123 -

And an example of a strong password would be:
- {gÙIjWÝ0ó{Ðö÷åQü9+òÀË×?̯Áv - -

Now you may be wondering, How the hell do I remember all of that, and for multiple accounts, none the less, well easily with KeePassXC? I personally use KeePassXC for my password management, mostly because it is offline, meaning you are not trusting a company with your data. I also find it very easy to use, and it has many features I like, for example, two-factor authentication, customisation options, and a password generator, all built into it. -

-

Browser

-

- Many people argue over what is the best browser for privacy, and many people have the argument over Firefox or the Brave brower, and there are many good arguments for one or the other. But personally, I do not take part in this debate because it is obvious what the best privacy-based browser is Librewolf. The reason why Librewolf is better than Brave and Firefox is for a large number of reasons, mainly because the people who develop Librewolf care about privacy, and it comes with uBlock Origin, which is an ad block that is very useful. -

Conclusion

-

That is all that I do to remain safe online, all the rest is common sense like not using windows, not downloading suspisous files online and not telling other people personal infomations. So I do hope you have enjoyed reading this and I will publish more articles in the future. -

Learning the C programming language

-

Date: 10:6:2024

-
-

Hello there, I have not updated this website in the last few days or posted much to GitLab, so I thought I might as well publish something to keep some people updated.

- -

So as the title implies, I have been learning the C programming language recently, and it has been fun. I am still at the basics, and I have tests coming up, but I am doing my best with the time I have! i  While I have been learning, I have been making a kind of tutorial file from the tutorial videos I have watched, so when I believe it is fully ready, I will publish it to GitLab.

It has been a few weeks, and I have not made much progress, sadly. I have been quite busy with school, but I have more free time now, so I will have more time to study. I am happy I have more time because I have been really falling behind on learning C.

Hello there! It has been a little while since I last updated this page. I have added some of the resources I use today, so that is a plus for you to read if you are curious! But the main bit of news is that I have is that I have rewrote my programme Fakefetch in the C programmeming language. It was a bit of a challenging, and I needed some help with troubleshooting, but I got there in the end. I have expanded on my notes, and when I am ready, I shall publish what I have done so far. But for now, that is all. Thank you for reading.

- - This page is still being updated as I learn more C so keep checking in! -

This is a page full of resources I use to learn the C programming language.

Switching to DWM

-

Date: 13/7/2024

-
-

It has been a little while since I have updated or added anything to the website, and this is due to the fact that I have been working on my configs, and so far I have them in such a way that I am happy with them. I have also been switching from Qtile to i3 to, well, Dwm now, which has been fun! The reason why I have switched to DWM is because it is written in C, and as my last article stated, I am currently learning C, so it's a win-win: I get a highly hackable window manager, and I get to learn more about C. I also just like how small it is in size because I have been considering doing a few projects in the future, that being, trying BSD, LFS, and Gentoo, which DWM works on all of them; since two of them (LFS and Gentoo) require me to compile everything, this has not been the worst decision I have made.

Here is my DWM config on my PC

- Linux rice - -

So far, I would say DWM is the perfect window manager for me. I do not see myself going back to Qtile or I3 any time soon because DWM has literally everything I would ever need and more, thanks to the amazing patches I am set up with. I have found it quite easy to configure it; it did take a little bit of time to get used to, but the people at Suckless have made it very easy to configure. I don't think I will be adding much to DWM from now on because I have it how I want currently, so I am pretty happy!

That is all for this post thank you for reading, more posts to come!
