I few days ago I started using XMPP again and it gave me the idea of using more privacy respecting social networks and chats. So I decided to write an article aobut it to share my personal recommendations about them.

I have been forced to use the Eclipse IDE for some of my Java courses. The thing is that I personally find Eclipse to have a pretty horrible interface.

Une plus tôt bonne vidéo qui parle nottament du ban de TikTok par le gouvernement français en Nouvelle-Calédonie. La Quadrature du Net va également attaquer en justice le gouvernement français pour cette décision.

I've just found my old blog from 2 years ago so I decided to merge its content and theme with this new one. I'll try to clean things up later since there is still a large part of things that are outdated (such as links to fediverse and shit).

Also maybe I'll change the theme or something like that. But I find it really cool to be able to finally start blogging more frequently !

I'll try to write an about page soon and stop procrastinating on the insane amount of study I still have to do

Some recommendations of cool blogs I recently started to follow, in English and in French...

I also discovered a concept I find pretty cool called "digital gardens" on those as well as weekly notes.

Urhh, this sucks. I have a very tight exam session this time. With only two weeks to study for three exams (in which included 1 which will take easily one to two week :/)

I'm sick of this, I feel like I haven't had a time off in ages at this point. This makes me procrastinate so much, I would just like to be with my friends (and lover) and chill without having to worry about what's coming next.

My lover recently said that she felt like she hasn't seen me in the past weeks even though we live together. That makes me sad, but it should be over soon I hope.

This is the first post in a maybe serie and at the time I write this I don't even know when or even if it will ever be published.

It's just that I never managed to actually sustain a blog and it frustrates me. I've started a blog quite some time ago, then I've also tried managing a gemini capsule.

This is a text from the website "Mad in America" and has been written by Chaya Grossberg.

This text explains how a hackerspace in Gent works. I found their structure very interesting and I really think that many structures should be organized like this.

We often hear that high techs are going to save the world, that electric cars, geoingeenering, medicine, etc; are going to save the world from global warming, crisis, etc. I disagree with this statement. I think many problems occuring in the world are occuring because of high technology and I also believe no technology is neutral. I think we should, in the opposite manner, thrive toward "low techs" instead.

This is a pure text version of the PDF "Mapping Our Madness" by "Momo" on The Icarus Project (fireweed collective).

Too often, we don’t get help or identify problems until we’ve reached a total breaking point.

I just re-designed my blog and switched to Zola today! I plan on adding more content soon (Minecraft tutorials, other tutorails, maybe some essays + some videos). But for now this is just a classic tutorial about making a Zola template.

This is a follow up to my latest post about Inspircd, which is another IRC server daemon. I prefer Ngircd because it's lighter and easier to configure than inspircd.

This is a quick guide to setup Inspircd with SSL on Debian. I've had some troubles doing this, I don't understnad why, maybe it was because I did it at 4AM?

Password mangers often come in 2 types: online and offline ones.

The online password managers are dependent on a cloud platform, many of them are premium, some of them are self-hostable and free. Offline password managers on the other hand (like Keepass) is only a file of encrypted passwords.

Hi, this is just a quick tutorial to install Plume on Debian.

I once had a very annoying problem when trying to backup my computer. Less than 50GB could take an entire night!

So I almost never did backup which was annoying for security and for distro-hopping. That was before a guy on Discord showed me a simple trick that would convert those annoying hours of backup in to less than 5 minutes.

This is a quick cheatsheet for me and for anyone that would be interested by ffmpeg. I use ffmpeg for many things but especially: screen recording and to be able to upload larger files on Discord without Nitro.

I am doing this quick guide because I think node isn't very easy to install. There are plenty of different installation means and it can get very quickly confusing because some are distro-specific, some are outdated, etc.

Why I use Alacritty

I am obsessed with lightness and optimization, I try ot reduce CPU and RAM usage everywhere, and try to keep the interface minimalistic.
