[ESC]Hellooo ^-^
I'm arcx ദ്ദി(ᵔᗜᵔ)
I'm totally new here and just found out this community on some indie and cool web 1.0 websites I've been lurking and i'm completely amazed and ik this will be my #1 pinned website for now on, really makes me feel like in the old days aesthetics, classic IRC with friends, and I am quite a nostalgic person. (my personal website is literally a functional Windows XP clone)
I am 25yo Computer Engineering student, with passion for learning everything as possible and yet being an autistic goof who doesn't know anything but tries. I was exploring the community for a while but didn't took words before to actually post something, and this seems exactly that underground community that I'd love to explore more, definitely lol.
My hobbies:
- I love reading (I'm the passive depressive guy, with books like Dostoievski, kafka, Osamu Dazai)
- I play games anytime on my freetime, I like those type of games that feel like a punch in my stomach
- i like random puzzles, enigmas, i have a rubik cube collection from 2x2 cubes to pyramidal ones and forth, lol.
- Outside STEM, i'm pretty nerdy for philosophy, history, psychology and political science.
- I play guitar and i write songs, i have some songs on Spotify but i'll keep private for now ₍ᐢ. .ᐢ₎
Favorite Anime: Serial Experiments Lain
Favorite Show: Mr.Robot (sudo apt install opsec)
Favorite Games: Silent Hill 2 / MiSide / S.T.A.L.K.E.R
Favorite Music: I am very, very music-oriented and I change my decision almost everytime, my favorite genres are usually Rock, Y2K nostalgic musics like Happycore and Hardstep, or Post punk numb aesthetic.. but for NOWWW i'd say Gigi Agostino - L'amour toujours or Basshunter - DotA
My Tech:
- OS: Running on Arch Linux [Hyprland] + CyberShell
- Browser: Firefox / LibreWolf / Tor + ProtonVPN
- Terminal: Alacritty / Rio
- IDE: Fresh Editor
- Image Drawing/Editing: Photoshop, Aseprite, CorelDraw, Krita
- Favorite Coding Lang: Python, Lua, C++ (Still learning at Uni)
- Coding Lang's that make me insta ALT+F4: Java, VBA
- Email: Proton / Onionmail
Projects I'm doing rn:
- OnionChat: An android app messenger that works with P2P messaging and encrypted traffic using WebSockets + TOR Onion Services for a full anonymous experience. Create rooms, add friends, send files and images, enjoy a full privacy ''WhatsApp'' without corpo telemetry or server-side components.
- CyberArch: A desktop shell that fully inserts Cyberpunk 2077 HUD interface into Linux, currently work in progress but for now it has: Original animations from notifications, music player, health gauge widgets, minimap, apps launcher and kiroshi sound effects and much more
- WinXP: My personal website ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ, nostalgia-driven and fully working Windows XP with: Folders and filesystem, Classical Windows Games, Appearance and customization, windows live messenger, working games ported with WebAssembly, Paint etc etc. Everything here is fully functional, no VM/VPS or server running, all made with next + js (and a bit of WSM).
Goals 4 Life: People here seem so interesting, diving into cyberdecks, hardware n raspberries, advanced stuff, feels like major leagues. As for me, I'm not very interesting, I like tech and programming since teenage but haven't done anything that spectular, where I was born we didn't had these "science fair" as much, well I've had ONE. My project was a musical tesla coil with a NE555 IC and it failed (╥_╥).
Aside that, I'm currently trying to get myself a job or entry-level position somewhere in Software Dev field, and after I finish my studies in engineering and cybersecurity maybe something on Information Security or Network Engineering ^-^
Thx for reading (✿◠‿◠)
