   8 COMPUTERS
   9
  10   My librebooted[1] ThinkPad X200 computer is the machine I use the
  11   most and where I do most of my computing.  I also have the privilege
  12   of having access to a fleet of servers through our school's Computer
  13   Science Club[2] that I use for some more computationally intensive
  14   tasks every now and again.

  20 GNU/LINUX DISTRIBUTION
  21
  22   I used a wide variety of distros over the years; but I have
  23   since found Trisquel[3] to be my favourite and it's put my
  24   ``distro-hopping'' days behind me.  Sometimes I pair it up with
  25   GNU Guix[4].  For the kernel, I usually use GNU Linux-libre[5]
  26   from jxself's APT repository[6].

  34 ACTUAL COMPUTING
  35
  36   I spend most of my time in GNU Emacs[7].
