Home on ࿗ Ritabrata's shenanigans

I wish to be unemployed when I grow up

First post of 2026. I would probably find this post cringe and retarded after a few years, afterall My grandparent’s marriage lasted ~57 years and and I have only lived around a one-third of it. What do I know about life.

Recently I have been getting too much influenced by people who say they don’t wanna do job (like cemeteryf0g on youtube) and I really like the fuck it, we ball lifestyle they have. They just be travelling ‘round the world with little to no money. They are simply so chill about life, and don’t gaf about any authority. Listen I don’t like rotting in home and shit, I do wish to work, and contribute to society but let’s be honest — working at enterprise isn’t doing shit. All you do is make rich; richer and you get somewhat of a stable job. That’s good if you have a family. Too bad for retarded people like the bloodline ends with us. Not blaming it on hypergamy, I am sure there are just as “boring” and retarded people for every sexual orientation and gender. Like everyone is just pretending to useful. I was helping one of my friends from USA with her letter of recomendation, and the university rejected because apparently it wasn’t “professional”. She had to add banner and more formal format to it, the content still stayed the same. I really don’t understand why people love pretending they’re important and doing something useful. Another instance is from yesterday — had my CBSE Chemistry practical, the CBSE external asked me to define “cryoscopic constant”. Simple enough? I said its the proportionality constant between the direct relationship of depression in freezing point and molality. The dude was not happy. He said the defination is not “bookish” and he cut 5 marks for it and my pathners (viva happens in groups of 3 in my school), they couldn’t say a single line. Apprently the correct answer is the constant that says how much 1 molal of a solution will cause depression in freezing point. Like what’s the difference ?!! I get it, the original engineers defined it that way? But seriously cutting entire 5 marks for our team? Whatever, like I care! (I am pissed off very much). Very few people do anything useful really — especially in the world of technology. Currently we are in this massive AI bubble and their entire capital is just the system prompts. Except for the GPU makers and companies that make the actual model, everyone is going to go bankrupt once the bubble pops. The real people who make difference are really just the open source contributors. Like let’s be real enterprise programming is dead, unless you are still using GPT-3 or something in 2026, the new series of Gemini, Claude or hell even the open source Chinese models can easily outperform the most random CRUD and SaaS application. Optimization? Just add more CPU and RAM. The 1% technical side of programming in corporations that was left, has all been reduced to nothing with generative AI. It’s just office politics now. I don’t hate generative AI, I don’t like the idea of being the “Bangalore IT coolie”. Hell, I wanna stick around my 8GB RAM laptop for long time now in hopes that it teaches me to optimize things. Like I learnt to use vim and optimize my work only because when I started to learn programming, I had mere 2GB of RAM and an Intel Core 2 Duo, all the way till late 2019. I would have never learnt to program efficiently if it wasn’t for the constraints in my childhood! Like I remember, those were the days, when VScode simply won’t start. I felt extremely sad, I taught myself to use Sublime text and Vim. Now I look back and don’t feel sad…

Looking back at 2025

I am currently writing this at 31 December 2025. I suddenly love writing stuff on my blog for absolutely no reason. I probably guess I would or probably no one would ever read this blog again. The cold this year’s winter is crazy, I have never seen Odisha be so cold, I am from Bhubaneswar and the temps go to a min of 10 degree celcius at times!!! Today was also the first time I didn’t give Paper 2 of my JEE mock tests, I simply gave up man…

I don't know how I feel after watching Charulata

merry christmas! jee is quite close. I am less worried mostly because my syllabus is done and I have kinda given up on life. Today I was trying to write a script for a visual novel and I was wondering how I could show love that isn’t direct — doesn’t need any expression, a bond that exists but doesn’t need to said out loud. Listen I am an engineering student, not a Humanities one, the bigger reason I wanted to make my visual novel was to learn Sokol… But since I was running out of words, I asked Gemini for some inspirations and it recommended me to watch “Charulata”…

I have entered my “bengali bhadralok” era (ask chatgpt if you dont know what it is) and i found myself readin’ a lot of philosophy and stuff. Recently… I came across this insane quote through a youtube video and I’ll be honest, I was finally happy to meet someone who also thought the same… The entire life I have been doing shii that I loved or wanted to do. I understood computers and STEM related topics simply because I wanted to understand how stuff works. Now here’s the thing many people around me don’t really think the same way… Yesterday I get a message from one of my good friend sayin' that some girl who was worse academically (in past) had got insane amount of marks in a Organic Chemistry test. I wasn’t pissed off, I was like “oh ok cool”, but nah, my homie was in full panic mode, he simply couldn’t accept the fact that someone had got better, when I asked why he reacted like this - he said that it wasn’t “fair” that someone who had apparently worked “less hard” get better in academics. I really didn’t understand his insecurity and then he pulled up Class 10 Board results… Yea Class 10… and asked me if I ever feel bad that people who never did well… did well in exam. I was like… nah, why would I, class 10 boards wasn’t my goal anyways, I genuinly do not care about that exam like dawg… And then I dropped this insane banger of a quote[the one in the title], he called my quote a ragebait and that apparently I am a “higher iq” person than him and that’s why I am not worried. I have never understood why do people compare each other like it. Like just set a goal and just work towards it… like crazy, thats all… If you ask me? I wanna build epic shit, maybe insane ass systems, hardware and if I lucky enough, the beautiful Indian Military Complex. You know~ I wanna build fancy stuff.

type shii i have been on

haha 69 days to jee (funny number) i spent stupid 4 years on this stupid exam for no mind blowing results. my life rn is an oscillation of we are so back and we are so done.

today was children’s day, …my last one, apparently i am an “adult” now, yay i can now go to websites and legally… vote… speaking of which kinda pissed i won’t be vote in the 2026 vidhan sabha elections of bengal because my jee is around the same time. so will have to wait another 4 years before i touch an evm unless by some miracle, there is an early by-election.

Soooooo my JEE exam is in 144 days, and me with infinite wisdom decide to implement a new backend for my YSFlight server, what happens next is very tragic 🥀

why i need a new backend?

Wellll i was checking out my homie skipper’s ysflight server and I see AI aircrafts- I think, thats cool as hell, I could add it to too, I had some experience working with YSFlight’s source code from cirnoYSF… and hence I sacrifice my JEE, my future for a… silly project and hence project Remelia (I swear I won’t name my next project after a touhou girl) was born.

Why GNOME is Best on a Laptop

Ricing on Laptop

hi guys im back after like err… 3 years, honestly I dont know why I am back, i have jee in like… 240 days, I was redoing my Github Readme and everything when I remembered I had a blog… I am pretty sure nobody reads this shit anyways but I will continue writing, anyways back to topic. So anyone who runs Linux probably knows about “ricing”, I have seen a few pretty desktops on r/unixporn, but I will be honest, recently every other post is simply just an Anime Girl wallpaper with fancy color scheme with Hyprland or something(or the same clock widget if KDE). Well I wanted to make a pretty desktop for myself too, So I started cooking.

Hosting a YSFlight Server behind a NAT

theindiandev@theindiandev.in (Ritabrata Das) — Sat, 07 May 2022 00:00:00 +0000

Hi Guys,

Today I’ll show you how to host a YSFlight server when you’re behind a NAT or a firewall. We all know to host a YSFlight server we need to port forward our 7915 port and blah blah; but the problem is most ISP’s in India don’t allow port forwarding for free(Only few like Airtel, BSNL allow). Also if you manage to port forward the IP isn’t constant. You can use DDNS service but it’s eh. Also it’s more secure since your real IP is masked; meaning nobody can see your real IP. Do note that you may get higher ping than the port forward method.

It’s actually a lot of software tied togheter, which makes for one of the best YSFlight PVP server. Its made up of Sakuya AC, Remelia and a bunch of digital infra. Learnt a lot to deal with it and its deployed in a debian 9 shtbox lol. The code is actually propitary but if you wanna play feel free to join at https://warzone-scoreboard.theindiandev.in
