# 21st Century
21st century, known as the *Age Of [Shit](shit.md)*, *Dark Ages*, *The [Brainwashing](brainwashing.md) Era* or *the century when [jokes](jokes.md) become reality*, 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, war, stupidity, destruction, hatred and greed, [fascism](fascism.md), misery, torture and constant suffering are just some words that come to mind about this time period, middle ages now almost seem like a paradise. How unlucky it is to have been born in such a shitty time. Everyone just wishes he was dead. [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. One of the biggest issues of this century is that most people think that good still exists (that it's just "in minority") -- they think fake [selflessness](selflessness.md) is real selflessness, exactly what the media wants them to believe. [Witch hunts](pedophilia.md) are more common than in middle ages now. 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 [tortured](marketing.md) constantly, since birth until death, every day, at their own homes. People are absurdly stupid, and everything is getting much worse every millisecond.

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](earth.md) 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. In 21st century every [joke](jokes.md) has to be preceded by 35 disclaimers, apologies to anyone who might find the joke unfunny, to the corporations that hold ownership of the words that the joke borrows, warning that the font may cause epileptic seizure, waivers of any responsibility for anything the joke may cause, threat to anyone who would think of copying the joke, attribution of all people in history thanks to which the joke is possible, several ads for sponsors of the joke and warnings about the pure coincidental similarity between any real life concepts and the concepts used in the joke -- after reading this you don't even want to read the joke anymore. But people have conformed to it, it is now standard. There are many more things like this but trying to recount them all would result in many thousands of billions of volumes of books.

@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ Anarchism (from Greek *an*, no and *archos*, ruler) is a [socialist](socialism.m
A great many things about anarchism are explained in the text *An Anarchist FAQ*, which is [free licensed](free_culture.md) and can be accessed e.g. at https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/the-anarchist-faq-editorial-collective-an-anarchist-faq-full.
Anarchism is a wide term and encompasses many flavors such as [anarcho communism](ancom.md), [anarcho pacifism](anpac.md), [anarcho syndicalism](ansyn.md), [anarcho primitivism](anprim.md) or [anarcho mutualism](anmut.md). Some of the branches disagree on specific questions, e.g. about whether [violence](violence.md) is ever justifiable, or propose different solutions to issues such as organization of society, however **all branches of anarchism are socialist** and all aim for **elimination of social hierarchy** such as social classes created by wealth, jobs and weapons, i.e. anarchism opposes [state](state.md) (e.g. police having power over citizens) and [capitalism](capitalism.md) (employers exploiting employees, corporations exploiting consumers etc.).
Anarchism is a wide term and encompasses many flavors such as [anarcho communism](ancom.md), [anarcho pacifism](anpac.md), [anarcho syndicalism](ansyn.md), [anarcho primitivism](anprim.md) or [anarcho mutualism](anmut.md).

At the beginning stands the simple observation that **power ALWAYS comes with corruption** ("Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.") and therefore power inevitably comes with abuse of power -- it is impossible to ever have a position of power that won't be abused and so to eliminate abuse of power the only effective solution is to remove any positions (NOT the people) with power: be it kings, presidents, CEOs or managers, we simply have to let go of the concept of someone having a power over other people. To common folk this may seem equally impossible to achieve, however it stops being so once we realize power can only exist as long as it has support of majority of the people -- it is based on fear and so to remove power we may only have to do as much as [educate](education.md) and make the majority of people agree to not collaborate on sustaining the harmful societal system. Further extrapolation then predicts that removing power will achieve a truly good society in which no one is abused, everyone has abundance of all necessary resources and therefore most issues that stem from [competition](competition.md) and conflict such as [wars](war.md), criminality, [fascism](fascism.md) and declining mental health will simply disappear naturally on their own, as there will simply be no more reason for them to exist.
There exist many **fake, pseudoanarchist ideologies** such as ["anarcho" capitalism](ancap.md) (which includes e.g. so caleed [crypto "anarchism"](crypto_anarchism.md)) that deceive by their name despite by their very definition NOT fitting the definition of anarchism (just like [Nazis](nazi.md) called themselves [socialists](socialism.md) despite being the opposite). Also the "new", western [pseudoleftist](pseudoleft.md) "anarchism" is NOT true anarchism, e.g. ["anarcha" feminism](anfem.md) is just fascist bullshit. Anything individualist, connected to [feminism](feminism.md), [LGBT](lgbt.md) etc. is not true anarchism. The propaganda also tries to deceive the public by calling various violent criminals anarchists, even though they very often can't fit the definition of a true anarchist.

At the time of writing this if you want to compile the so called "[open source](open_source.md)" [Android](android.md), you will need a supercomputer at home (https://source.android.com/docs/setup/start/requirements) with at least 400 GB of space, 64 GB of RAM (remember, this is a MINIMUM requirement!), a [modern](modern.md) 64 bit CPU with multiple cores (Google uses 72 core machines!), and many hours of computational time. How long before we need a million dollar supercomputer to compile an "open source" program? Now ask yourself, is this still real freedom?
Examples of bloat monopoly include mainstream web browsers ([furryfox](firefox.md), [chromium](chromium.md), ...), [Android](android.md), [Linux](linux.md), [Blender](blender.md) etc. This software is characteristic by its difficulty to be even compiled, let alone understood, maintained and meaningfully modified by a lone average programmer, by its astronomical [maintenance](maintenance.md) cost that is hard to pay for volunteers, and by aggressive [update culture](update_culture.md).
Bloat monopoly is similar to **[compliance monopoly](compliance_monopoly.md)** which eliminates small and simple programs by means of difficult compliance to the [law](law.md) -- for example [European Union](eu.md) is pushing hardcore [censorship](censorship.md) laws which are not only bad for their very nature of censorship, but which are very hard to comply to -- e.g. a search engine must make sure it won't violate anyone's "[privacy](privacy.md)", that it won't link to anything breaking [DRM](drm.md) etc. That may be practically impossible to do without special [proprietary](proprietary.md) systems, [AI](ai.md) and a lot of powerful hardware. This ensures only the big and rich, for example [Google](google.md), can make things such as search engines, removing any potential competition out of their way.

{ Nanochess is actually pretty strong, in my testing it easily beat [smallchesslib](smallchesslib.md) Q_Q ~drummyfish }
Visualizing chess state space can be [interesting](interesting.md). Here is one idea: draw the board with all squares black except the ones with men which can be moved -- color these white. Now [recursively](recursion.md) replace each square with a similar picture: the black ones will stay black, the white ones will be replaced by boards where only the square to which the man in question can be moved will be colored white. And so on until certain depth. Of course the image will be getting very large quickly and will also be quite black, so some kind of improvement may be employed: for example make the black square as small as possible. Additional fanciness can also be added, e.g. maybe don't redraw the squares but just keep brightening them or whatever. Any chess game played can then be visualized as zooming into this large image. This kind of visualization may also be applied to any other game which is played on a board by "clicking" squares, i.e. also tic tac toe, go etc.

**Digital vs analog, simple example:** imagine you draw two pictures with a pencil: one in a normal fashion on a normal paper, the other one on a grid paper, by filling specific squares black (making kind of manual [pixelart](pixelart.md)). The first picture is analog, i.e. it records continuous curves and position of each point of these curves can be measured down to extremely small fractions of millimeters -- the advantage is that you are not limited by any grid and can draw any shape at any position on the paper, make any wild curves with very fine details, theoretically even microscopic ones, you have [infinite](infinity.md) space of possibilities at your disposal. The other picture (on a square grid) is digital, it is composed of separate points whose position is described only by whole numbers (*x* and *y* coordinates of the filled grid squares), the disadvantage is that you are limited by only being able to fill squares on predefined positions so your picture will look blocky and limited in amount of detail it can capture (anything smaller than a single grid square can't be captured properly), the [resolution](resolution.md) of the grid is limited as well as the number of possible pictures you can draw this way, but as we'll see, imposing this limitations has advantages. Consider e.g. the advantage of the grid paper image with regards to copying: if someone wants to copy your grid paper image, it will be relatively easy and he can copy it exactly, simply by filling the exact same squares you have filled -- small errors and noise such as imperfectly filled squares can be detected and corrected thanks to the fact that we have limited ourselves with the grid, we know that even if some square is not filled perfectly, it was probably meant to be filled and we can eliminate this kind of noise in the copy. This way we can copy the grid paper image a million times and it won't change. On the other hand the normal, non-grid image will become distorted with every copy and in fact even the original image will become distorted by aging; even if that who is copying the image tries to trace it extremely precisely, small errors will appear and these errors will accumulate in further copies, and any noise that appears in the image or in the copies is a problem because we don't know if it really is a noise or something that was meant to be in the image.
But this is not to say digital data can't become distorted too -- it can. It is just less likely and it's easier to deal with this. It for example happens that space particles (and similar physics phenomena, e.g. electronic interference) flip bits in computer memory, i.e. there is always a probability of some [bit](bit.md) flipping from 0 to 1 or vice versa. We call this **data [corruption](corruption.md)**. This may also happen due to physical damage to digital media (e.g. scratches on the surface of CDs), imperfections in computer network transmissions (e.g. packet loss over [wifi](wifi.md)) etc. However we can introduce further measures to prevent, detect and correct data corruption, e.g. by keeping [redundant](redundancy.md) copies (2 copies of data allow detecting corruption, 3 copies allow even its correction), keeping [checksums](checksum.md) or [hashes](hash.md) (which allow only detection of corruption but don't take much extra space), employing error correcting codes etc.

So let's be aware of this.
Another way in which digital data can degrade similarly to analog data is **reencoding between lossy-[compressed](compression.md) formats** (in the spirit of the famous "needs more [jpeg](jpg.md)" [meme](meme.md)). A typical example is digital movies: as new standard for video encoding are emerging, old movies are being reconverted from old formats to the new ones, however as video is quite heavily lossy-compressed, losses and distortion of information happens between the reencodings. This is best seen in videos and images circulating on the internet that are constantly being ripped and converted between different formats. This way it may happen that digital movies recorded nowadays may only survive into the future in very low quality, just like old analog movies survived until today in degraded quality. This can be prevented by storing the original data only with lossless compression and with each new emerging format create the release of the data from the original.

The **Doom engine** (also called *id Tech 1*) was revolutionary and advanced (not only but especially) video game graphics by a great leap, considering its predecessor [Wolf3D](wolf3D.md) was really primitive in comparison (Doom basically set the direction for future trends in games such as driving the development of more and more powerful [GPUs](gpu.md) in a race for more and more impressive visuals). Doom used a technique called **[BSP rendering](bsp.md)** (levels were made of convex 2D sectors that were then placed in a BSP tree which helped quickly sort the walls for rendering front-to-back) that was able to render [realtime](realtime.md) 3D views of textured (all walls, floors and ceilings) environments with primitive lighting (per-sector plus diminishing lighting), enemies and items represented by 2D [billboards](billboard.md) ("[sprites](sprite.md)"). No [GPU](gpu.md) acceleration was used, graphics was rendered purely with [CPU](cpu.md) (so called [software rendering](sw_rendering.md), GPU rendering would come with Doom's successor [Quake](quake.md), and would also later be brought to Doom by newer community made engines, though the original always looks the best). This had its limitations, for example the camera could not look up and down, there could be no tilted walls and the levels could not have rooms above other rooms. The geometry of levels was only static, i.e. it could not change during play (only height of walls could), because rendering was dependent on precomputed BSP trees (which is what made it so fast). For these reasons some call Doom "[pseudo 3D](pseudo3d.md)" or 2.5D rather than "true 3D", some retards took this even as far as calling Doom 2D with its graphics being just an "illusion", as if literally every 3D graphics ever wasn't a mere illusion. Nevertheless, though with limitations, Doom did present 3D views and internally it did work with 3D coordinates (for example the player or projectiles have 2D position plus height coordinate), despite some dumb YouTube videos saying otherwise. For this reason we prefer to call Doom a **primitive 3D** engine, but 3D nonetheless. Other games later used the Doom engine, such as Heretic, Hexen and Strife. The Doom engine was similar to and competing with [Build](build_engine.md) engine that ran games like [Duke Nukem 3D](duke_3d.md), Blood and Shadow Warrior. All of these 90s shooters were amazing in their visuals and looked far better than any [modern](modern.md) shit. Build engine games had similar limitations to those of the Doom engine but would improve on them (e.g. faking looking up and down by camera tilting, which could in theory be done in Doom too, or allowing sloped floor and dynamic level geometry).
The game data is stored in so called **WAD files** (short for *where's all the data*). While many things are hardcoded in the engine, such as the total number of levels or types of weapons, most other things such as textures, levels, color palettes, weapons and enemy sprites are in the WAD files and so can be replaced without having to mess with the engine itself. There are two types of WAD files (both however still come with the same .wad extension, they are distinguished only by the file magic number): IWAD (internal WAD) and PWAD ([patch](patch.md) WAD). IWAD is the most important one, representing the base game, so for example Doom, Hexen and Freedoom will all have their own specific IWAD. Only one IWAD is loaded at any time. PWAD allows to add or modify things in the IWAD which makes it possible to easily correct bugs in the game data and make mods. Unlike with IWADs, multiple PWADs can be loaded at any time -- when loaded, a resource that's present in the PWAD will override the same resource in the base IWAD. All resources in the WAD files are stored as so called *lumps* which we may simply see as "blobs of data" or "files". A nice [CLI](cli.md) tool for working with WADs is e.g. [deutex](deutex.md).
Indexed ([palette](palette.md)) mode with "only" 256 colors was used for rendering. Precomputed color tables were used to make dimming of colors faster. Similarly a [look up table](lut.md) was used for [random number generation](rng.md) -- two independent [pseudorandom](pseudorandomness.md) generators are present, one is used for things such as visual effects while the other one is utilized purely for the game simulation so that it stays deterministic independently on graphics etc.
Doom also has a [deterministic](determinism.md) [FPS](fps.md)-independent physics which allows for efficient recording of [demos](demo.md) of its gameplay and creating [tool assisted speedruns](tas.md), i.e. the time step of game simulation is fixed (35 tics per second). Such demos can be played back in high quality while being minuscule in size and help us in many other ways, for example for verifying validity of [speedruns](speedrun.md). This is very nice and serves as an example of a well written engine (unlike later engines from the same creators, e.g. those of [Quake](quake.md) games which lacked this feature -- here we can see how things get progressively shittier in computer technology as we go forward in time).

Android is also one of the ugliest pieces of software ever made, requiring hugely specific and expensive computer setup just for its compilation. With Android they invaded a huge number of devices from cells phones to TVs and have the ability to spy on the users of these devices.

{ The following is a summary of a simple setup I made and tested. ~drummyfish }
Firstly consider that many tiny devices are powerful enough to run some [GNU](gnu.md)/[Linux](linux.md) and even much weaker [bare metal](bare_metal.md) devices or calculators can still be very useful -- you can take a look at various [free hardware](free_hardware.md) computers, [open consoles](open_console.md), Chinese "retro gaming consoles", programmable [calculators](calculator.md), single board computers etc., even a modified "smartphone" (i.e. with some non-shitty OS installed) can probably do a good job at replacing a computer, you may experiment with all of these. To get a true "desktop like experience" one of the best choices for this is probably **[raspberry pi](rpi.md)**, it's a single board computer capable of running an OS and replacing your laptop, it is powered from USB, "[just werks](just_werks.md)" AND it has super low power consumption (maybe like 5 to 10 watts?) which will make it last very long, compared e.g. to a true laptop. The model tested here was 3B+. You'll plug in keyboard and mouse and then you'll just need some kind of display -- look up portable displays, you want some that's powered from USB as well (mustn't drain too much power though, so go for something small and simple), for example *zenscreen MB165B* is quite cheap and was tested to work with this setup. Then buy some kind of power bank, for example *Xiaomi Redmi 18W 20000mAh* was tested to work well here. This will serve as your battery, the nice thing is that power banks aren't that expensive and can easily just be replaced if they break or die and they're flexible -- you can unplug them, carry them somewhere to be charged in many different ways (if there is no Sun you'll power it up from a wall plug on some public toilet or something :D). Finally you just buy some kind of solar charger to charge the power bank -- you don't need a "real" solar panel, any kind of pocket charger that can power a USB device will probably do; again this won't be that expensive and can be easily replaced or complemented. One possible hardship may be with installing the USB display drivers (if you can get your hands on a similar display that works through HDMI instead of USB, it will probably be better because you won't need special drivers) -- they are usually proprietary, the driver for zenscreen caused some trouble here and crashed the OS sometimes, but it finally worked like this: install the old Raspbian OS (NOT the new Raspberry pi OS); it has to be the lite, command line only version, i.e. without GUI. Then update the system. Install some simple GUI system (e.g. lightdm plus dwm) but DON'T make it start automatically after boot. Then install the zenscreen driver; now the display works if you boot the raspberry with display UNPLUGGED and once it boots up (wait like a minute), plug in the display and start X server (`sudo systemctl start lightdm`, you can make a script named e.g. just *a*, so that you just type *a* on keyboard and press return). This is not ideal but it's a way. Also decrease the display's resolution and refresh rate to get better responsiveness and maybe even lower power consumption. Also turn off wifi if you don't use it, save power. The things will actually last very long, the power bank has great capacity and RPI consumes very little power, so it's much better than a laptop in this sense. You can now download pages and books from the Internet for offline browsing, install some simple games (even Freedoom seemed to work well), set up your programming environment and so on. Enjoy respobsibly :)

Pedophilia (also paedophilia or paedosexuality) is a sexual orientation towards children. A pedophile is often called a *pedo* or *minor-attracted person* (map); there are also terms such as hebephilia and ephebophilia that mean attraction to a bit older "non-adults". Opposition of pedophilia is called **[pedophobia](pedophobia.md)** or [pedohysteria](pedohysteria.md) and is a form of age [discrimination](discrimination.md) and witch hunt.
{ **important NOTE on terminology**: I was told that I should rather use different terms such as *ephebophilia* here because some people define pedophilia not as an attraction to any pre-adult, but just to very young, prepubescent children. I am now aware of this, however I will just keep using the term pedophilia to mean attraction to any pre-adult because indeed if you were to let's say admit you'd like to watch pre-18 porn, you'd still most definitely be called a pedophile. They want to keep the word *pedophile* scary and use it as a weapon, I will simply not be afraid of it and I'll be using it if that's what they want. Furthermore creating billions of new terms is an SJW style deflecting of focus from the real issue onto shallow word, it is a "gender studies" kind of bullshit similar to inventing new genders and pronouns and whatnot, which doesn't solve anything, it's just juggling words and at best shifting the hard-defined age limits which is exactly what I oppose here, so I'm not going to play along. ~drummyfish }

@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ Firstly a word of warning: stuff about how to plan projects, lead them, get peop
Also let it be said that everyone has to find his own way of doing projects, it's just like with learning for example: everyone has his own ways, what works for one may not work for another. The advice here will come firstly from the author's ([drummyfish](drummyfish.md)) personal experience and secondly from general [LRS](lrs.md) principles. Also even though we'll mostly be talking about programming projects, a project can be anything really, what we say applies also to making a [music](music.md) CD or writing a [book](book.md). Here we go:
- **As always, keep everything [free](free_software.md), [LRS](lrs.md), well designed, non-commercial etcetc.** Minimize [dependencies](dependency.md); dependencies of your project are for example the [programming language](programming_language.md) you use, libraries for formats that you use, assets of third parties you use, minimum hardware demands of a computer that can handle the project etc. Just a reminder. Also think with your brain.
- **As always, keep everything [free](free_software.md), [LRS](lrs.md), well designed, non-commercial etcetc.** Minimize [dependencies](dependency.md); dependencies of your project are for example the [programming language](programming_language.md) you use, libraries for formats that you use, assets of third parties you use, minimum hardware demands of a computer that can handle the project etc. Make it tool-agnostic -- your programming project mustn't be a project for your programming IDE, your book shouldn't be directly written in LaTeX (rather write it Markdown which will enable you to compile to LaTeX as one of many target formats), your song mustn't be a project for your DAW etc. Just a reminder. Also think with your brain.
- **Prefer one man projects to many men projects**: Firstly LRS projects should be simple enough to be manageable by a single man, which has many advantages, for example ensuring a coherent artistic vision without any compromise, legal simplicity (e.g. with relicensing), ensuring that the project can REALLY be controlled by a single man (true [freedom](free_software.md)), and also very importantly the cost of collaboration. Multiple people on a project -- even just two -- introduce many inconveniences, issues and [friction](friction.md), e.g. that of communication (every thought has to be explained, put into words for others and they still may not completely get it, communication tools will have to be set up and maintained, ...), resolving editing conflicts (multiple people working on the same thing at once), making decisions (voting? discussions?), disagreements, arguments, "codes of conducts" and similar bullcrap. LRS does value collaboration, but mainly loose collaboration, i.e. making bigger things out of smaller things that are made by single people. But more people projects are cool, e.g. wikis or maybe projects by very close people who are already used to working together efficiently.
- **Do NOT be too ambitious, especially with first projects.** This is EXTREMELY important and you have to realize that even if you think something will be easy, it won't be so, a project will always be at least 20 times harder than you estimate (even if you already have experience in estimating project difficulty). Making a game is not just about programming it (which itself means debugging, refactoring, writing tests, debugging tests, organizing repos, designing APIs, studying libraries, ...), you'll also have to document it, play test it (many, many times over), debug it, optimize it, package it, make a website for it and a billion other things. If you decide to make a game like GTA (or even just Pokemon clone or something) but you haven't made at least 10 games already, YOU WILL FAIL, it will be a disaster and completely wasted time. Unless you've done like 10 projects already, choose dead simple things like Tetris clone or something (see [exercises](exercises.md) for beginner project tips). Remember, the goal of your first project isn't the thing in question but rather learning about making a project and finishing it.
- **[FINISH](finished.md) THE FUCKING PROJECT.** Unfinished project will just have wasted your time, it will leave you disgusted, broken, depressed and defeated, it will be of no use to anyone, you'll just feel like [shit](shit.md). For this it is important to choose something simple -- if you finish the thing, you'll be happy regardless of how simple it really was, you'll be eager to make more things, people will be able to use your project, they'll be thanking you for it which will further make you more happy and so on. Even if it's a freaking minesweeper, you've made your own game now, it brings happiness to people, you can take a look at it every time you'll be feeling down and be a bit happier. On the other hand however if your project still ends up failing don't become too depressed and try to take the best of it -- it's not the end of the world, you have acquired some experience and you may still try to reuse parts of the failed project elsewhere, just try to extract maximum good.

Pseudorandom numbers are not to be confused with [quasirandom](quasirandomness.md) numbers (AKA *low discrepancy sequences*) which are imitating randomness yet in a weaker way (just attempting to be spaced far apart).
## How It Works
Firstly let's mention that we can use [look up tables](lut.md), i.e. embed some high quality random data right into our program and then use that as our random numbers, taking one after another and getting back to start once we run out of them. This is for example how [Doom](doom.md)'s pseudorandom generator worked. This is easy to do and extremely fast, but will take up some memory and will offer only a quite limited sized sequence (your generator will have a short period), so ponder on the pros and cons for your specific needs. From now on we'll leave this behind and will focus on really GENERATING the pseudorandom values with some [algorithm](algorithm.md), but look up tables may still be kept in mind (they might even perhaps be somehow combined with the true generators).

# Sorting
Sorting denotes the action of rearranging a sequence, such as a [list](list.md) of [numbers](number.md), so that the elements are put in a specific [order](order.md) (e.g. ascending or descending). In [computer science](compsci.md) sorting enjoys the status of a wide and curious topic, there are dozens, maybe hundreds of sorting [algorithms](algorithm.md), each with pros and cons and different attributes are being studied, e.g. the algorithm's [time complexity](time_complexity.md), stability etc. Sorting algorithms are a favorite subject of programming classes as they provide a good exercise for [programming](programming.md) and analysis of algorithms and can be nicely put on tests :) Sorting algorithms are like [Pokemon](pokemon.md) for computer nerds, some are big, some are small and cute and everyone has a favorite. { Gotta implement them all? ~drummyfish }

You may have been led to naively believe USA is something of a superior country but it's a beginner mistake to think that, it's merely a country that's shouting the loudest and tries to be seen as much as possible, it is like the popular blonde [chick](woman.md) in your class that everyone is giving attention because she's wearing tons of makeup and is bitching and crying all the time, however despite the attention you can bet in any other way she's most definitely the stupidest, least interesting human in the room.

On 6th and 9th August 1945 **USA murdered about 200000 civilians**, most of whom were innocent men, women and children, by throwing atomic bombs on Japanese cities Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The men who threw the bombs and ordered the bombing were never put on trial, actually most Americans praise them as [heroes](hero_culture.md) and think it was a good thing to do.
**Americans are uber retarded** for example in trying to somehow pursue both [self interest](self_interest.md) and "social equality", it's extremely ridiculous, an american brain is literally incapable of imagining someone who doesn't at his core work on the basis of self interest, so the American that tries to identify with "wanting equality and human rights" just comes up with hugely fucked up arguments like ["SKIN COLOR IS JUST ILLUSION THEREFORE WE ARE ALL EQUAL"](political_correctness.md) -- because he inevitably sees differences implying oppression because self interest just cannot be not present (this idea won't even occur for a second to him during his whole lifetime, it's simply something he NEVER can physically think), his mind is hard wired to be unable of grasping the idea of accepting difference between people while giving up the self interest of falling to [fascism](fascism.md) as a consequence.

USA also has the worst justice system in the world, they literally let angry mob play judges in actual courts, they pick random trash from the streets (similarly to how they choose their presidents) and let them decide someone's guilt for giving them free lunch, which they call "jury duty".

Not that you should use bloated Windows programs but even if you WANT that you can do it with [Wine](wine.md) under GNU/Linux, sometimes the programs even run better under Wine than on winshit itself lol. By this there is zero (or maybe even fewer) reasons to ever use windows, it's literally just for [faggots](faggot.md).
Some "people" still decide to use it.
Not that you should never use Windows programs but even if you WANT that you can do it with [Wine](wine.md) under GNU/Linux, sometimes the programs even run better under Wine than on winshit itself lol. By this there is [zero](zero.md) (or maybe even fewer) reasons to ever use windows, it's literally just for [faggots](faggot.md).
In 1999 GNU/Linux users organized a **Windows refund day** on which they tried to refund Windows they got shipped with laptops they bought and which of course they didn't need -- according to Windows EULA this was their [right](rights_culture.md), however Microsoft of course tried as much as possible to deny this to the users and just shat on their heads. They made it [practically](de_facto.md) impossible to get the refunds.
**Should we compile our programs for Window$?** [Free software](free_software.md) supporters regularly debate this question, some say we shouldn't make Window$ versions of free programs so as to not support the platform. Nevertheless even such purists as [GNU](gnu.md) make Window$ versions of their programs with the justification that providing Window$ useds with the taste of freedom may convince them to leave the system (though their critics may equally see it as mere populism, i.e. just making their program more popular). It is probably true that making some free tools available on Window$ makes a transition to a free system easier just by making the transition more gradual: the used first learns to use free tools, then switches the underlying system, as opposed to making one giant leap into a completely foreign environment. { This is how it worked for myself anyway. ~drummyfish } **Nevertheless** our [LRS](lrs.md) point of view is yet a bit different -- we oppose any kind of [censorship](censorship.md), artificial scarcity and so on, including actively breaking compatibility (which includes not making something compatible if it is trivial to do), we simply refuse to be overlords strategically dictating whether something should work or not, that would be the [evil](evil.md) way. For this our advice is: if it's easy to make your program work somewhere, make it work there. Never put extra effort into lowering compatibility or accessibility. If you just don't care about some platform or it would present too much trouble for you to make it compatible, it's fine to not do it, but at least make it easy for others to do for you. So yes, you can (and probably should) make a Window$ version of your program, but it is also OK to have a bit of [fun](fun.md) while doing so -- for example [Anarch](anarch.md) on Window$ warns the player that his operating system is [malware](malware.md) :) **How to compile shit for Window$ when you don't have Window$?** There are several ways: for [C](c.md) (or C++ etc.) programs you may comfortably use e.g. MinGW ([mingw](mingw.md)) (basically the GNU compilers + binary tools compiled and packaged for Window$) -- this you can either run natively under GNU/Linux (look for mingw packages) or you may run the Window$ versions of it under [wine](wine.md) or in some [VM](vm.md) such as [qemu](qemu.md) or virtualbox (where you may additionally also test the compiled program); you may also theoretically e.g. make a web browser version of your program (with stuff like emscripten) which will run on all OSes.

### How To (Sc)rape And Hack The Web
A great deal of information on the Internet is sadly presented via web pages in favor or normies and disfavor of [hackers](hacking.md) who would like to just download the info without having to do [clickity click on seizure inducing pictures](gui.md) while dodging jumpscare porn [ads](marketing.md). As hackers we aim to write scripts to rape the page and force it to give out its information without us having to suck its dick. With this we acquire the power to automatically archive data, [hoard](data_hoarding.md) it, analyze it, do some [netstalking](netstalking.md), discover hidden gems, make our own search engines, create [lulz](lulz.md) such as spambots etc. For doing just that consider the following tools:
- General [CLI](cli.md) downloaders like [wget](wget.md) and [curl](curl.md). You download the resource and then use normal Unix tools to process it further. Check out the man pages, there exist many options to get around annoying things such as redirects and weirdly formatted URLs.
- Text web browsers like [links](links.md), [lynx](lynx.md) and [w3m](w3m.md) -- these are excellent! Check out especially the `-dump` option. Not only do they handle all the crap like parsing faulty HTML and handling shitty [encryption](encryption.md) [bullshit](bullshit.md), they also nicely render the page as plain text (again allowing further use of standard Unix tools), allow easily filling out forms and all this kind of stuff.
- [Libraries](library.md) and scraping specific tools: there exist many, such as the BeautifulSoup [Python](python.md) library -- although these tools are oftentimes very ugly, you may just abuse them for a one time [throwaway script](throwaway_script.md).
- Do it yourself: if a website is friendly (plain HTTP, no JavaShit, ...) and you just want to do something simple like extract all links, you may well just program your scraper from scratch let's say in [C](c.md), it won't the that hard.
