How to Network Two Computers Under Linux

I also dealt a little with this topic, I went into the administrator’s waters and looked for a way to network two machines under (Arch) Linux in the simplest way, in order to easily transfer a bunch of data that I need from time to time, and what I allowed myself was fast backups. This is important because I am often do a little distro hopping. One thing is for sure, I always come back to Arch Linux!

DIY Arduino Night Light: Easy Step-by-Step Project

Time flows, and as it flows, I managed to force myself to make this video tutorial for Arduino. This time the theme is a circuit that turns the night light on or off based on the brightness of the room. This is a nice thing, especially when there are small children in the house, so it is necessary for the light to be turned on at all times. Of course, there is also a modification of this circuit, so that it can be used for, say, street lighting. The positive aspects of such a project can be easily seen and enumerated.

Udemy JavaScript Certificate – First step

After a lot of time, I managed to listen and do the final project on one of (in my opinion) the best JavaScript courses on the platform. This is the course “” by Jonas Schmedtmann (I hope I translated his name well). I might not have written about the certificate itself and this particular lecturer, but my enthusiasm for his approach to the course, how it was designed, what it encompasses, as well as the way he explains, certainly influenced the decision to write this text. The very fact that the course contains less than 70 hours of video material speaks of its substantiality.

Boost Performance on ArchLinux – HDD tricks

ArchLinux as a distro gives quite a lot of freedom to the end user to configure the entire system. Starting with the installation that is done from the console (there are TUI and GUI variants, but I’m talking about the basic one), through the post-installation procedure, the user has to adjust everything himself in order to have a functional system, working environment, etc. In this text, I will mention one item, and that is improving the performance of classic hard drivesI will have to quote and publish one by one, because one text cannot cover everything.

Hello Arduino World: Flashing LED Tutorial

Some time ago, I started to discover a new area in programming and electronics, it’s about the Internet of Things, a little more precisely about microprocessors and microcontrollers. As I announced in the first text on the blog one of my target areas is Arduino and it’s time for the first post! This text is different from the others, this time in addition to the text, video material for the first project is included, something like “Hello world!” – flashing LED. I follow trends a bit, or at least try, but I definitely enjoy doing this!

Attempted Fraud or Missed Opportunity?

A few months ago, I had an interesting correspondence with a person via Linkedin, where the person in question “processed” me in order to agree to online cooperation. The proposal was like this: Permission to use my computer remotely, with an assigned IP address, then to allow access to accounts on LinkedIn and Upwork. For my “torment”, I would have a 10% share in what my associate (hereinafter I will call him Gliša) is doing through the Internet. It was freelancing as a developer. I can’t help but wonder, as the title of the text says, is this an attempt at fraud, or a missed business opportunity?

Resetting forgotten Windows password – chntpw

I come back with the story again, and this time I go to the dark side … a little. Why the dark side, you ask? Part of my job is to use Windows OS and I can’t escape that. So I consider Windows the dark side because I know there is something better and of course I use that something every day. The other side of the dark side story is about computer ethics, but I had no other way out of the situation. I had to use Linux and the chntpw tool to allow myself access to one of the user accounts on one of computers at work.

Install ArchLinux in 50 Easy Steps

The migration from the old to the new computer took me a long time, but it also enabled me to write this text – how to manually install ArchLinux. I need a reminder when an accident happens, and it can help someone. When you read “50” steps, it may scare someone, but if you know how to work in the console, there will be no problems. This way of installation can be fun, not to mention that “I am God!” moment and of course bragging in front of a clumsy neighbors that doesn’t even know what Linux is, not to mention the console and all commands you type. They’ll just think you invented the Matrix. This brings with it some bad things, they will ask you to fix their computer. When I say this it means that they will call you for every little thing. The warning is there, the good sides as well, so let me start with the list.
