About Me

Hey, I'm Lukasz — I like technology <3 @Lukasz.aep.

I run Gentoo Linux as my daily driver, I build most of my OS myself, it's slow when compiling but that's okay.

This site itself is a project with AI, it's supposed to be in a "Frutiger Aero" web look and the cozy "Wii Menu" vibe — glassy bubbles, glossy buttons, rounded channels, and a big rotating globe for the interactive site enjoyers.

My Gentoo Kernel

Built from source, on purpose WAW

No binary kernels here. I pull the sources straight from /usr/src/linux, run make menuconfig, and hand-pick every driver and subsystem my hardware actually needs — nothing more.

  • Custom .config tuned specifically for my CPU and devices
  • Stripped of modules and drivers I'll never touch (firewire LOL <3)
  • Compiled with -march=native -O2 in make.conf
  • OpenRC init for a lean, transparent boot
  • Rebuilt on every major kernel bump

Why? uhhh

Faster boots, a smaller attack surface very opsec yes. Daily usage of the system helps me be better at linux in general, while I can enjoy the smooth and snappy feel of it all.

Gentoo isn't the easy path, speaking from experience xD

Linux, Gentoo builds, kernel compiling, and whatever else ends up here it's all just slop anyways.
