12 | <p>My <a href="https://libreboot.org">librebooted</a> ThinkPad X200 |
13 | computer is the machine I use the most and where I do most of my | |
14 | computing. I also have the privilege of having access to a fleet of | |
15 | servers through our school's | |
16 | <a href="https://csclub.uwaterloo.ca">Computer Science Club</a> that I | |
17 | use for some more computationally intensive tasks every now and again, | |
18 | and also for hosting this very website.</p> | |

20 | <h2>GNU/Linux distributions</h2> |
21 | <p>I have used a wide variety of GNU/Linux distros over the years; but | |
22 | as of late, I find myself using | |
dcc71b98 AB |
23 | <a href="https://trisquel.info">Trisquel</a>, |
24 | <a href="https://guix.gnu.org">Guix System</a>, and | |
25 | <a href="https://www.debian.org">Debian</a> (with | |
26 | no <code>contrib</code> or <code>non-free</code>) almost exclusively. | |
27 | For the kernel, I mostly use | |
28 | <a href="https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/">GNU | |
c867ac90 AB |
29 | Linux-libre</a>. Guix System comes with GNU Linux-libre out of the |
30 | box, and on Debian-based distros I tend to install it from | |
dcc71b98 AB |
31 | jxself's <a href="https://jxself.org/linux-libre/">APT |
32 | repository</a>.</p> | |

34 | <h2>Actual computing</h2> | |
35 | <p>I spend most of my time in | |
dcc71b98 | 36 | <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/">GNU Emacs</a>.</p> |

39 | <h2 id="colophon">Maintaining this site</h2> |
40 | <p>I took a great amount of inspiration | |
dcc71b98 AB |
41 | from <a href="https://technomancy.us/colophon">Phil Hagelberg</a>'s |
42 | setup. The pages of this site are written in plain HTML using GNU | |
43 | Emacs, with <a href="https://gnu.org/s/m4">GNU M4</a> acting as a | |
44 | full-featured template engine. | |
c867ac90 AB |
45 | A <a href="/GNUmakefile"><code>GNUmakefile</code></a> provides |
46 | convenient <code>make</code> rules to build and publish the site. The | |
47 | bibliography of my <a href="/publications">publications</a> is | |
48 | generated from <a href="/bandali.bib"><code>bandali.bib</code></a> | |
dcc71b98 AB |
49 | using <a href="https://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html/">bibtex2html</a>, |
50 | and further processed and put together using | |
51 | <a href="https://gnu.org/s/sed">GNU sed</a> and | |
52 | another <code>GNUmakefile</code>. The git repository containing all | |
53 | the sources used to build this site is available | |
54 | <a href="https://git.emacsconf.org/bandali/bndl.org">here</a>.</p> | |
