13<p>My main computer is a <a href="//libreboot.org">librebooted</a>
14ThinkPad X200, and is the machine I use the most. I also own a
15ThinkPad X220T tablet that I occasionally use for reading and
16annotating research papers, and a Dell XPS 15 I use every now and
17again more as a &ldquo;desktop&rdquo;.</p>

20servers through our school's

22for some heavier computations every now and again.</p>

25<p>I've used a wide variety of GNU/Linux distributions over the years;
26but as of late, I find myself using

27<a href="//trisquel.info">Trisquel</a>,
28<a href="//guix.gnu.org">Guix System</a>, and
29<a href="//www.debian.org">Debian</a> (with no <code>contrib</code> or

30<code>non-free</code>). For the kernel, I mostly use
31<a href="//www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/">GNU
32Linux-libre</a>. Guix&nbsp;System comes with GNU Linux-libre out of
33the box, and on Debian-based distros I tend to install it from
34jxself's <a href="//jxself.org/linux-libre/">APT repository</a>.</p>

37<p>I spend most of my time in

41<h2>Cell phone</h2>
42<p>I have an old Nexus 5 I reluctantly use from time to time. It runs
43LineageOS+microG without GApps. Sadly it still requires some blobs
44for functioning. I can't wait for lxo's
45<a href="//www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/blogs/lxo/pub/0G">0G</a> to become a
46reality fast enough.
