Computers

-

My main computer is a -soon-to-be-librebooted -ThinkPad X200. This is the machine I use the most in or out the -house. I also own and occasionally use a Dell XPS 15 more as a -“Desktop”, and a ThinkPad X220T tablet I use when reading -(and annotating) research papers.

My librebooted ThinkPad X200 +computer is the machine I use the most and where I do most of my +computing. I also have the privilege of having access to a fleet of servers through our school's -Computer Science Club, -which I use for some heavier computations every now and -again.

+Computer Science Club that I +use for some more computationally intensive tasks every now and again, +and also for hosting this very website.

GNU/Linux distros

-

I've used a large number of GNU/Linux distributions throughout the -years, but as of late, my favourite distros are -Trisquel, -Guix System, and -Debian (with no contrib or -non-free). I mostly use the -GNU Linux-libre kernel. -Guix System comes with GNU Linux-libre out of the box, and on -Debian-based distros I install it from jxself's -APT repository.

GNU/Linux distribution

+

I used a wide variety of distros over the years; but I have since +found Trisquel to be my favourite +and it's put my "distro-hopping" days behind me. Sometimes I pair it +up with GNU Guix. For the kernel, +I usually use +GNU +Linux-libre from jxself's +APT repository.

Actual computing

I spend most of my time in -GNU Emacs.

Cell phone

-

I have an old Nexus 5 I reluctantly use from time to time. It runs -LineageOS+microG without GApps. Sadly it still requires some blobs -for functioning. I can't wait for lxo's -0G to become a -reality fast enough. -:-)

Maintaining this site

+

The pages of this site are (manually) written in plain HTML using +GNU Emacs. You can run git clone +https://bndl.org in a terminal to get the git repository +containing all the pages of the site and the history of changes to +them.

Got a question or comment? You can find my -email address on my contact page. -:-)
