How I do my computing
---------------------

    inspired by the computing page of rms:
    https://stallman.org/stallman-computing.html


COMPUTERS

  My librebooted[1] 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[2] that I use for some more computationally intensive
  tasks every now and again.

GNU/LINUX DISTRIBUTION

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

ACTUAL COMPUTING

  I spend most of my time in GNU Emacs[7].

MAINTAINING THIS SITE

  The pages of this site are all written in plain text and composed in
  GNU Emacs.  They are then automatically converted to HTML with
  minimal changes -- mostly just linkifying URLs -- on each git push,
  by this nifty Perl script: https://bndl.org/txt2html.  To get the
  git repository containing all of the pages and their history of
  changes, you can run  git clone https://bndl.org  in a terminal.
