| 15 | <h1>How I do my computing</h1> | |
| 16 | <p> | |
| 17 | (Inspired by computing pages of | |
| 18 | <a href="https://stallman.org/stallman-computing.html">rms</a> | |

| 23 | <h3>Computers</h3> | |
| 24 | <p> | |
| 25 | My main computer is a | |
| 26 | soon-to-be-<a href="https://libreboot.org">librebooted</a> | |
| 27 | ThinkPad X200. This is the machine I use the most in or out | |
| 28 | the house. I also own and occasionally use a Dell XPS 15 more | |
| 29 | as a “Desktop”, and a ThinkPad X220T tablet I use when reading | |
| 30 | (and annotating) research papers. | |
| 31 | </p> | |

| 34 | I also have the privilege of having access to a fleet of beefy | |
| 35 | servers through our school’s | |
| 36 | <a href="https://csclub.uwaterloo.ca/">Computer Science Club</a>, | |
| 37 | which I use for some heavier computations every now and | |
| 38 | again. | |

| 41 | <h4>GNU/Linux distros</h4> | |
| 42 | <p> | |
| 43 | I’ve used a large number of GNU/Linux distributions | |
| 44 | throughout the years, but as of late, my favourite distros | |
| 45 | are | |
| 46 | <a href="https://guix.gnu.org">Guix System</a>, | |
| 47 | <a href="https://trisquel.info">Trisquel</a>, and | |
| 48 | <a href="https://www.debian.org">Debian</a> (with no | |
| 49 | <code>contrib</code> or <code>non-free</code>). | |
| 50 | I mostly use the | |
| 51 | <a href="https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/">GNU Linux-libre</a> | |
| 52 | kernel. Guix System comes with GNU Linux-libre out of | |
| 53 | the box, and on Debian-based distros I install it from | |
| 54 | jxself’s | |
| 55 | <a href="https://jxself.org/linux-libre/">APT repository</a>. | |

| 58 | <h4>Actual computing</h4> | |
| 59 | <p> | |
| 60 | I spend most of my time inside | |
| 61 | <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/">GNU Emacs</a>. | |
| 62 | </p> | |

| 64 | <h3>Cell phone</h3> | |
| 65 | <p> | |
| 66 | I have an old Nexus 5 I reluctantly use from time to time. | |
| 67 | It runs LineageOS+microG without GApps. Sadly it still | |
| 68 | requires some blobs for functioning. I can’t wait for lxo’s | |
| 69 | <a href="https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/blogs/lxo/pub/0G">0G</a> | |
| 70 | to become a reality fast enough :) | |
