50 <h2>Computers</h2>
51 <p>My <a href="https://libreboot.org">librebooted</a> ThinkPad X200
52 computer is the machine I use the most and where I do most of my
53 computing. I also have the privilege of having access to a fleet of
54 servers through our school's
55 <a href="https://csclub.uwaterloo.ca">Computer Science Club</a> that I
56 use for some more computationally intensive tasks every now and again,
57 and also for hosting this very website.</p>
58
59 <h2>GNU/Linux distribution</h2>
60 <p>I used a wide variety of distros over the years; but I have since
61 found <a href="https://trisquel.info">Trisquel</a> to be my favourite
62 and it's put my "distro-hopping" days behind me. Sometimes I pair it
63 up with <a href="https://guix.gnu.org">GNU Guix</a>. For the kernel,
64 I usually use
65 <a href="https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/">GNU
66 Linux-libre</a> from jxself's
67 <a href="https://jxself.org/linux-libre/">APT repository</a>.</p>
68
69 <h2>Actual computing</h2>
70 <p>I spend most of my time in
71 <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/">GNU Emacs</a>.</p>
72 <p>TODO: elaborate</p>
73
74 <h2 id="colophon">Maintaining this site</h2>
75 <p>The pages of this site are (manually) written in plain HTML using
76 GNU Emacs. You can run <code class="box">git clone
77 https://bndl.org</code> in a terminal to get the git repository
78 containing all the pages of the site and the history of changes to
79 them.</p>
