Our emotional state of choice is ecstasy. Our nourishment of choice is Love. Our addiction of choice is technology. Our religion of choice is music. Our currency of choice is knowledge. Our politics of choice is none. Our society of choice is utopian, though we know it will never be. You may hate us. You may dismiss us. You may misunderstand us. You may be unaware of our existence. We …
Have you ever used a hallucinogenic drug in your life? If so, then the following video might put a smile on your face because this “digital LSD” really works. See for yourself. But this experiment is perhaps even more fun for people who have never used any hallucinogenics, but are perhaps a bit curious to find out what the effects are a bit. But no worries, you won’t have to …
In my previous post I explained how to set up an OpenVPN server on Raspbian (April 2018 release) on any model Raspberry Pi. Here’s how to set up the client certificates that you can import in your OpenVPN client app on your desktop or mobile. All these commands are to be entered in the console as root user. cd /etc/openvpn/certs source ./vars ./build-key client mkdir /etc/openvpn/client cp /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files/client.conf /etc/openvpn/client/client.ovpn Edit …
This weekend, I heard a friend say that he wants to turn his Raspberry Pi into a VPN server. Since I still had an old Raspberry Pi lying around I decided to install the latest version of Raspbian on it (April 2018 release) and also install OpenVPN on it, record how I did this, and show my friend how he can easily do the same on his Raspberry Pi. I …

It was once said that using these DNS servers would result in a noticeable speed increase when compared with the DNS servers that your internet provider makes you use. I started using the Google servers and the addresses immediately got stuck in my head, so I haven’t stopped using them since. Until today, that is…I’ve …
I have Ubuntu16.04 servers running, and I want to run database engines like MariaDB on it. Normally I would just type sudo apt install mariadb-server and the database system would be up and running in under two minutes. Ubuntu16.04 will install version 10.0 by default, but I want to install a different version. At the very least, 10.1. Why 10.1 you might ask? Well because 10.1 was the first release …
Take a look at the gaming room of this guy. He is actually one of the people who used to work for Sierra back in the 90s. Or in other words, the glory days of gaming. I’m so jealous of this guy’s collection. I also want this also! I NEED THIS!! I REALLY NEED THIS BECAUSE OF REASONS!! I hate this guy so much right now. Not really, of course, …
Today I received an e-mail from Blizzard informing me that I have been selected to participate in the alpha test version for the upcoming expansion Battle for Azeroth. I hope this means that I will automatically also get access to the beta version that will be released soon. I’m not going to try the alpha version because well… it’s alpha. I’m not even sure if I will be trying the …
I was watching the results of yesterday’s voting elections and found out that there’s a local political party in Amsterdam called Ubuntu so I was like WTF!?
