How can I just turn it all off, the information overload that is but still be able to study, learn and train with my computer. I wish I didn't care about gathering useless information, tangling myself in a web of nothingness and consuming.

today felt like the day where I've read all the books that I wanted to read for the most part, excluding the endless amount of technical ones and a few philosophy, history or literature books I'm fine with picking up when I'm 40+.
There's no "must"-consume movie, tv show, video game or anime for me left either.
And I'm content history-wise and an overall "pop" understanding of all subjects when it comes to knowledge. (As in I don't feel a need to read a bunch of articles, watch lecture videos and browse wikipedia anymore).
Yet my brain just depressingly stayed lost and tired today, I did little other than work-out and then caved in and visited 4channel to shitpost and browsed some twitter accounts.
It's like fucking brain damage, I thought I would be free. THERE'S NOTHING TO CONSUME ANYMORE, I wish I could start living normally where I'd spend my day training a skill, cooking, working out more and reading technical books that I want to get better at. I'll try again tomorrow.
But for real like seen above I tried looking for something, I don't know what and it's missing.

This doesn't really track or follow any generalized logic format.

I guess most people don't understand or interpret the internet as a mental gym and just get stuck on level 1 type interpretations.

I mean even thinking about it for 5 seconds it is apparent that comic is simply a creator self-validating their hole of interpretation rather than laughing at themselves, side-stepping, and then picking a different category altogether in order to decouple or detach the chemical receptors so their brain can do more complex and varied processing tasks <~ which leads to generalized happiness. Happy is just a state that defines a healthy process of modality. I'll admit though that being able to choose to step out of it can require significant trauma to develop or basic mindfulness. Mindfulness being just remain aware of your internal state and how it relates to the external world so you can see which are your own states you can affect and which are external things you can either avoid or exclude altogether.

I literally have no method of applying any part of your reply to my post, or interpreting your post for that matter. If you could explain that'd be appreciated.

I literally have nothing to go on other than you are an Anonymous individual, which to me is a random N-slice of the human population that communicates using English and has internet access, and that I am comparing your word choice and sentence structure to past examples unique to myself and how they either succeed or fail in their described objective.

I don't see any objective in your posts so have no idea with what brush you are painting me with let alone what you are panting on me or what paint you're using.

i think it isn’t a question of studying instead of browsing the web, but finding a different leisure activity. you’re going to take breaks regardless, and since you’re already on the computer to study, surfing the web is an intuitive choice. but it’s a terrible leisure activity since it’s too uncontrolled, it leads to your breaks taking up way too much time. and again, it’s too easy to transition from studying to leisure, given that you’re doing both on the same medium. your studying breaks aren’t well separated from your studying. so you need to find something to replace web browsing for breaks. good luck on that, i don’t know any activity that is as passively stimulating as it, serving so much of that desirous feeling of ‘novelty’ from an endless supply. lots of people recommend just doing nothing, meditating, but of course this is not a reasonable replacement if your brain is used to such great stimulation. neuroplasticity isn’t always a good thing, it can dig you into a pretty deep hole. alternatively (and i think this is the only realistic, although maybe not practical, solution), try not to rely on your computer to study. the medium is the message to some extent
