21st century, known as the Age Of [Shit](shit.md) or Dark Ages, is already one of the worst centuries in [history](history.md), despite only being around for a short time. Hell on [Earth](earth.md), violence, pure stupidity, destruction, hatred and greed, [fascism](fascism.md), misery, torture and suffering -- these are just some words describing this time period of time. How unlucky it is to have been born in such a shitty time. [Abominations](snowflake.md) walk in the streets. In this century there exists no more [good](good.md), there is just [evil](right.md) opposed by [another evil](pseudoleft.md) and people no longer even know what good means, they only support one of the two evils, thinking it's the good; there are rare few who support some kind of third evil that's not one of the two major evils, but all in all there is nothing but evil. While in the past only a portion of population were slaves, under today's late stage [capitalism](capitalism.md) the whole population has already been enslaved. People are absurdly stupid, and everything is getting much worse by the year.
In 21st century there are already long established offices whose sole purpose is to ensure people cannot make use of useful ideas (see [patents](patent.md)). It is also possible -- and actually extremely common -- to draw a rectangle on the ground and then buy a paper that makes it possible to bully anyone who enters that rectangle, even kill him. Whole earth is now covered with such rectangles, it is impossible to set foot anywhere else -- in fact if you want to live, you have to buy a paper that gives you your own rectangle where you won't be bullied if you fall asleep, but you have to continuously pay for that paper, i.e. you are doomed to slavery just by existing. In 21 century it is forbidden to shit or urinate if you have no money in your pocket, without money you are OFFICIALLY supposed and expected to hold it until your bladder explodes and you die in the street -- if you're in a big city and you want to shit, you cannot do it, you may only pay for someone to let you take a shit in his house. Also in 21st century you cannot eat food that is next to you, that no one else is eating and that will be thrown away, and that even if you're starving -- it is called theft and you will be beaten for it, maybe even killed. In this century you can also no longer drink from rivers or lakes, they have been poisoned so that you cannot drink at all if you don't have money in your pocket -- doing the same with air is already work in progress, major cities already have borderline unbreathable air. Never ending torture is part of everyday life: for example every day you are forced to stop sleeping very early and go perform [slavery](work.md) that you hate deeply, the whole day you are continuously targeted with repeated brainwashing ([ads](marketing.md), news, social media, [fear culture](fear_culture.md), industrial noise, ...) that equate psychological torture. There are many more things like this but trying to recount them all would result in many thousands of billions of volumes of books.

21st century is a horror, devoid of all humanity. No sincerity exists anymore, only fakes, as everyone is seeking some kind of [capital](capitalism.md), no art is sincere anymore, no soul is present in any craft, there is no place for soul among pure self interest -- despite the world being filled with bright colors and infantile pictures, it's like a world full of creepy clowns, cartoon animals are dancing all around in ads and movies but you know it's all just soulless robots beneath the shell, something aimed purely at taking advantage of you, at raping you. They will torture you to death with a smile on their face.

{ Let's aim for quality rather than quantity here, don't put any book that has some connection to our cause here, but rather the ones you've read and which you judge as a quality book that enriched you in some way. ~drummyfish }
- **An Illustrated History of 151 Video Games** (2014): Though being a bit of a modern, normie book with some shit here and there, overall it's actually a quite nice compendium on video games, very good for example for your inawoods offline library, to cover most of the gaming topic. It covers games from the earliest up until the end of the good gaming era, with a mini review of the most significant ones, including many screenshots and interesting trivia. There are also sprite sheets, game maps and articles about notable gaming systems. It evokes a bit of that 90's kid's nostalgia of reading about games in paper magazines. (As always, try to get older editions, newer ones will probably be more shitty.)
- **Blackout** (2017, Elsberg): Fiction, telling a story of a large blackout in Europe that shows to really be caused by [bloated](bloat.md) tech. For [collapse](collapse.md) enjoyers this is an interesting read if only for the detailed description of the consequences a sudden loss of electric power.
- **Day of the Triffids** (1951, Wyndham): Excellent sci-fi in which civilization comes to an end due to a disaster (won't spoil), very nice for collapse preps or just people enjoying a great story narrated in captivating way :-) The movie is a joke, don't even search for it. Also other books by Wyndham are awesome.
- **[Einstein](einstein.md): His Life and Universe** (Isaacson, 2008): [Einstein](einstein.md)'s biography, quite a nice read about a pretty awesome man who's image has been so distorted by the mainstream shit.

# Data Hoarding
TODO: is it based or is it a disease? Hoarding data on paper (books, encyclopedias, ...) is probably good.
WORK IN PROGRESS
Data hoarding means larger than normal focus on collecting data, often in bigger quantities, most commonly by downloading them from the [Internet](internet.md). Frankly speaking it may or may not be a [disease](disease.md) -- this will depend on whether the activity is done well and contributes to one's well being and increasing [good](good.md) in the world, or if it's just an obsession wasting away one's life and enslaving him to the machine.
## How To Do It Well
Here let be an advice to the good data hoarder.
- As always: in general **minimize the [bad](bad.md), maximize the [good](good.md)**. Size, cost, [maintenance](maintenance.md), time, anxiety and other trouble are bad. Value of the data, its durability, independence, freedom etc. are good. **Know what and why you're doing it** -- you probably don't want to hoard famous Hollywood movies that you can pirate from 1000 sites at any time, there's no point in that, you want to save files so as to back them up, have them ready in case the Internet stops existing, save something that's likely to be censored and so on.
- **Collect small data of high value**, maximize the value/size ratio: typically save a lot of text data, vector images are fine too, be more picky with bitmap images and things like video always have to be considered extremely well, curated and edited to shrink their size. **Keeping your collection as small as possible is the number one priority** as the size is what makes the difference between having a pocket USB stick that can be quickly and easily backed up on any file sharing website or a CD vs maintaining a [RAID](raid.md) of backups, consuming new CPUs and spending most of your hoarding time just keeping your collection alive.
- **Hoard physical books** and similar oldschool data such as photos, vinyl records -- not only they often have advantages over electronic data, such as being storable without electricity and lasting longer, they are also usually of better quality and higher value. Internet data are full of junk and noise because it's a cheap medium -- a paper book on the other hand has to carefully choose what to include, i.e. it already did this part of the job for you.
- **Use appropriate formats and quality**: if the value of the data is text, save it as txt (even if you found it in pdf), if it's a black and white scan, save it as black and white image (no need for RGB), if it's a diagram, find vector version of it and save that, if it's a meme whose entertaining value will be preserved even at half resolution, don't save it in 1080K resolution, save it at lowest acceptable quality etc. Use simple, common file formats that can be handled by free software, do NOT use proprietary formats or formats that are extremely complicated if you can at all avoid it. Go to great lengths to extract valuable data out of shitty formats: for example if you find a vlog video whose main value is in what's being said and not the video itself, rather find and store the video text transcript than the video itself (it takes much less space, can be searched, indexed, printed and backed up on paper, ...), or, as the next best thing, extract only audio and compress that so that it's just barely understandable.
- **Careful with [compression](compression.md)**: compression can be good but again, only use it when appropriate, in most cases compression will be achieved just by saving the data in good format (and such compression will generally be even better than general purpose compression). General purpose compression (zip etc.) brings in trouble, for example it makes the data more prone to corruption (removes redundancy, increases entropy), it adds a dependency on the decompression program, it makes the files harder to inspect etc. Use it only on very large files that will get reduced a lot, for example some extremely huge dump of text data will likely benefit from being zipped.
- **See how to do [backups](backup.md) well** and stick to that.
- **Use and make tools, automatize**. For example if you're downloading a lot of Wikipedia articles, make a simple script that will extract just the article text, throwing away the unnecessary sidebar, script and styles. Minify all websites you download, remove image tags if you're not saving images etc. Make converting images quicker and simpler e.g. with some ImageMagick scripts. Similarly use ffmpeg to tame your videos. There already exist many web scrapers and format converters and a lot can be achieved with the basic Unix tools, just look stuff up.
- **Organization may be good**: primarily try to name the files well, only use alphanumeric characters and underscore, limit the filename length and adopt some general naming rules. This will help preserve correct names when copying between different systems, and it will make searching more comfortable too. Some general directory structure may be cool, for example separating free and proprietary data will allow you to easily upload the free part anywhere on the Internet and so partially back it up, whereas with proprietary data you might get in trouble. Do not overdo organization though, that may lead to obsessions and wasting time, even complicating the search for something -- [keep it simple](kiss.md). Put some thought into WHY you're organizing the files certain way, don't just do it because it "looks nice", just use your fucking brain.
- **NEVER [ENCRYPT](encryption.md)** for fucks sake, encryption is shit.
- ...
## How To Do It Wrong
Do the opposite of what's described above, download everything just in case, in the highest resolution you can find, develop an adrenaline kick just from the feeling of right clicking a file, buy as many hard drives as you can afford and then fill them up with everything you find, then cry at least whole day if one of them gets corrupted. Then set up an expensive system that will be keeping it all backed up, that will eat up electricity and space and require you to run around it and replace broken disks constantly, clean the dust and keep updating the software that powers it. Get attached to your collection like it's your waifu.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry sums it up with a quote: *we achieve perfection not when there is nothing more to add but when there is nothing left to take away.*
Minimalism is also an immensely important concept in [art](art.md), for example in architecture and design, and in addition there also exists the generalized concept of **life minimalism** which applies said philosophy to all areas of [life](life.md) and which numerous technological minimalists quite naturally start to follow along the way -- life minimalism is about letting go of objects, thoughts and desires that aren't necessarily needed because such things enslave us and mostly just make us more miserable; from time to time you should meditate a little bit about what it is that you really want and need and only keep that.

For instance owning a [car](car.md) is kind of a slavery, you have to clean it, protect it, repair it, [maintain](maintenance.md) it, pay for parking space, pay for gas, pay for insurance -- this is not a small commitment and you sacrifice a significant part of your life and [head space](head_space.md) to it (especially considering additional commitments of similar magnitude towards your your house, garden, clothes, electronics, furniture, pets, bank accounts, social networks and so forth), a minimalist will rather choose to get a simple [suckless](suckless.md) bicycle, travel by public transport or simply walk.

Minimalism is a sign of high [IQ](iq.md) and better developed mind, it is something that requires an intellect strong enough to overcome the human instinct for hoarding to which the unintelligent is a slave -- an instinct that was important in times of scarce resources but one that's become harmful in times when certain resources are abundant and can be consumed without limits. It is like with overeating: the intelligent man is able to restrain from unhealthy overeating to which he is pushed by his instinct.
**Minimalism is necessary for [freedom](freedom.md)** as a free technology can only be that over which no one has a [monopoly](bloat_monopoly.md), i.e. which many people and small parties can utilize, study and modify with affordable effort, without needing armies of technicians just for the maintenance of such technology. Minimalism goes against the creeping overcomplexity of technology which always brings huge costs and dangers, e.g. the cost of [maintenance](maintenance.md) and further development, obscurity, inefficiency ("[bloat](bloat.md)", wasting resources), consumerism, the increased risk of bugs, errors and failure.

**Accepting privacy inevitably comes with accepting pretense**, i.e. if privacy and anonymity is important, we are accepting the fact that people publicly pretend to be something they are not and only under the mask of anonymity will say what they truly think, i.e. we accept that pretense and public lying is normal. That's a completely fucked up mindset which a [good society](less_retarded_society.md) cannot accept. We have to make it so that people can be who they are publicly, that they can say and act publicly as they act in private.
If we extrapolate the situation into the future, we can see where sustaining this will lead. If you go out, you'll always have to wear a full body protective cloak, face mask and, of course, you privacy high heels -- remember, your body proportions and body height are your private data, you don't want to give these away to the cameras lurking outside. You won't be able to talk freely to anyone, not even closest friends and family in complete privacy -- your information is not safe with anyone, anyone can slip or give it away unknowingly, so no, your friends mustn't know your favorite color, names of your pets, number of siblings, your gender, age, that's all too sensitive, a sufficiently smart AI will be able to deduce your password from it, or connect it with other information flying around, catching you into its net. Better minimize talking to your friend about anything at all, better not go outside unless you absolutely must, better stay in your cellar, be anonymous and safe, die happy in the darkness knowing no one knew anything about you, as if you never existed at all.
Do you have **"nothing to hide?"** Tinfoil privacy maximalists absolutely love this sentence, it almost makes them orgasm; don't misunderstand them though, they are psychopaths, they are obsessed people who above everything love to waste their whole lives on playing the hide and seek game, but most importantly they want to drag everyone into the game. Yes -- sadly you've probably been forced to have at least something to hide, for example your [password](password.md) -- it's not that the claim is false, the great mistake and fucked up nature of our world shows in how people interpret such truth and how they react to it. The fact that you have something to hide doesn't mean you should accept it and start focusing on hiding, and, just in case, "hide absolutely everything". This leads to hell, you accept the dystopia AND start supporting it, you buy into endless [fear](fear.md) and bullshit, just like when you dedicate your whole like for example to hoarding [money](money.md) -- there will be no such a thing as "moderate privacy", no, privacy maximalists will tell you you must hide absolutely EVERYTHING, even such things as your favorite color or style of speech, because these things might lead to someone guessing your password, fingerprinting you etc. No, this is all absolute insanity, the fact you have to hide something at all shows something is extremely [wrong](capitalism.md) with the society -- if anything, you should try to **fix the society so that you no longer have anything to hide**.
Therefore here is **how to 100% solve privacy**: make it moral to make ALL information public, always, without any censorship, "protection", laws and other bullshit. { NO, it's fucking NOT a joke or "satire", I am 100% serious. More like 3000% actually. It's extremely smart, that's why people don't do it. ~drummyfish } This way passwords will become obsolete, which has a nice side effect of also ending a lot of capitalist bullshit such as banking and [intellectual property](intellectual_property.md), people will have to start sharing. Governments and corporations will also start taking extreme advantage of the situation, so people will stop using online technology as much and maybe they'll even finally decide to ditch governments and corporations, another great leap in development of society. People will also stop being concerned about their "private data" -- at first they will be freaking out that everyone can see their dick pics and what porn they jerk off to but since EVERYONE's data will be visible, they will find out that everyone watches weird porn, that everyone has a dick (well, about half of population), and they'll just stop acting like chimps in a while. This literally only has advantages and it solves many of our greatest issues all at once. At this point privacy has been solved. { Leave the Nobel Prize at my door, thanks. ~drummyfish }

Soyence relies on low [IQ](iq.md), shallow education and popular "science education" (e.g. neil de grass), while making its followers believe they are smart. It produces propaganda material such as "documentaries" with Morgan Freeman (i.e. people who are good at persuasion rather than being competent), series like The Big Bang Theory and [YouTube](youtube.md) videos with titles such as "Debunking Flat Earth with FACTS AND LOGIC", so there's a huge mass of [NPCs](npc.md) thinking they are Einsteins who blindly support this cult. Soyence attacks science from within by attacking its core principles, i.e. it tries to ridicule and punish thinking outside the box and asking specific questions -- in this it is not dissimilar to a mass [religion](religion.md).
Examples of soyence:
For the ones who possibly still don't get it, here is a little comparison. It is good if for now you don't see it as "good" vs "evil" (this is a separate step, left for later on), just as a comparison of what science is vs what's politics. The first step is simply to see the difference.
- example of science: "Objects close to Earth dropped in vacuum fall and accelerate at the same rate no matter their weight. Do whatever you please with this information. If you don't believe it, check it yourself. If you find a more accurate law, please let it be known."
- example of NOT science: "This claim has been published in a top science magazine and reviewed by 100 people each one having 10 PhDs and 100 science medals, so trust it or you'll be bullied."
Of course, once science advances, it may stop being so simple as for everyone to be able to for example check the results that scientists found, that's without doubt, the point is simply that at the stage when the field starts being a religion, for whatever reason at all, we can no longer call it science, it is simply religion that evolved from science. That is all.
Some further examples of soyence:
- [gender studies](gender_studies.md) [LMAO](lmao.md)
- "Race is a social construct and doesn't have any biological meaning."
