My distros

More than five years ago, I made the switch from Windows to Linux, and since then, I’ve explored four different Linux distributions. My first stop was Linux Mint, which provided a fantastic experience and served as the perfect bridge between Windows and the Linux world. I stuck with Mint for 13 months.

AI getting better and better

It's amazing to see how the AI technology is getting better almost every day.

Last year, I wrote an article on Artificial Intelligence and Plato's cardinal virtues—though I originally wrote it in Bosnian. Recently, I came across an intriguing claim online that Google's NotebookLM can generate podcasts featuring virtual hosts who discuss a topic based on an article or video. Naturally, I was curious, so I uploaded my article on the cardinal virtues and Plato's ethics, and asked NotebookLM to create a podcast episode about it.

In Prague again

I just got back from a trip to Prague with the M5 classes from my school. As always, Prague was amazing. I can honestly say it’s one of my favorite cities, and one of the few places I don’t mind visiting over and over.

Using Linux for five years

Five years ago, I made the switch from Windows to Linux, and I haven’t looked back since. I started my journey with Linux Mint, where I stayed for a while. It was a great introduction to Linux, and I still recommend it to anyone seeking a Windows alternative. After Mint, I transitioned to Ubuntu for a bit before finally settling on Debian, which I’ve been using since late 2021.

Currently, I use Debian, though not the stable version. I prefer the Testing branch (codename Trixie), which is essentially a testing ground for what will become Debian 13 in about a year or so.

Keeper of the Seven Keys

I have a photographic memory, which means I can recall some incredibly obscure moments from my life. Today, I found myself with an unexpected urge to listen to a particular song by the German power metal band Helloween1—Keeper of the Seven Keys. This track is from their album Keeper of the Seven Keys: Part II, released in 1988.
