Inspired by various other blogs, here’s a list of all the stuff I “use”, be it hardware or software.
Software
Here is my current software stack. I try to use the same software on all my computing devices, as much as possible.
- Operating System: NixOS (although this server still runs Debian), Linux Mint for my gaming PC
- Text editor: Neovim
- Terminal emulator: Wezterm
- Web browser: Mozilla Firefox
- IRC Client: senpai, Goguma on iOS
- IRC Bouncer: soju, with senpai running in a tmux instance and a highlight script to get alerts on my phone
My emails are hosted by Migadu, a small company based in Switzerland.
Hardware
My personal laptop is a second-hand Thinkpad X230 (the same one that had Supervisor password issues!). It has:
- 8GB of RAM
- 500GB of SSD
- an Intel Core i5-3360M
It dual-boots NixOS and macOS, but that’s just for the lulz.
My desktop PC sports:
- A Ryzen 3 3300X processor
- an RTX 3060Ti
- 32GB of RAM.
I’ve recently moved it to a Fractal North case, which I recommend wholeheartedly (it’s spacious, and has tons of nice features).
My keyboard is a Ducky One 3 TKL Matcha (MX Browns), because Ducky are the only ones who make affordable, nice, AZERTY mechanical keyboards. My mouse is an MX Master (first of its name). For headphones, I use DT 770 Pros; I’m not an audiophile, but these are very confortable and feel solid, which is what I’m looking for in headphones. The cord is also great, because it means I don’t have to think about charging them!
