I am planning to seriously learn a lot of IT topics.
I'm not an illiterate in IT. I know basic programming, basic algorithms and data structures, basic math...
What I'm trying to do is to go in depth into various topics.
I am really motivated to go into security research / exploit development, so this is what I will do:
1. Learning about computer architecture. [ Structured Computer Organization (5th Edition), Andrew S. Tanenbaum ]
2. Learning about networks. [ Computer Networks (5th Edition), Andrew S. Tanenbaum ]
3.Learn more about programming, algorithms and data structures (not sure about the resources yet)
4. Get into network security (now that I have the network basics) and penetration testing. (not sure about the resources yet)
Of course, that's a long way. I'm not denying it.
And I'm really willing to study all that.
What do you advise? A better path? Different resources?
Nobody? /g/, I need advices before I start this long path! Please. :|

Make sure you don't neglect practical experience in favour of reading. Take some advanced math classes.

You should know everything in the beginner section and at least 3 from the core section before specializing. You could probably plough through most of this link in about a year if you did 16 hours a day but you'd want to kill yourself at the end of it.

Thank you! I will do pratical activities too.
Anyway, I am not planning on finishing in the shortest time possible. I don't care a lot about time. I will take my time. Understanding over rush (unlike the approach many people have).
I think it will surely be a 5+ years journey.

Women are just retarded.

I'm a man. Nonetheless, your point is nonsense.
