8 COMPUTERS

10 My librebooted[1] ThinkPad X200 computer is the machine I use the
11 most and where I do most of my computing. I also have the privilege
12 of having access to a fleet of servers through our school's Computer
13 Science Club[2] that I use for some more computationally intensive
14 tasks every now and again.

20 GNU/LINUX DISTRIBUTION
21
22 I used a wide variety of distros over the years; but I have
23 since found Trisquel[3] to be my favourite and it's put my
24 ``distro-hopping'' days behind me. Sometimes I pair it up with
25 GNU Guix[4]. For the kernel, I usually use GNU Linux-libre[5]
26 from jxself's APT repository[6].
