- <h3>Computers</h3>
- <section>
- <p>
- My main computer is a
- soon-to-be-<a href="https://libreboot.org">librebooted</a>
- 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.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- I also have the privilege of having access to a fleet of
- beefy servers through our school’s
- <a href="https://csclub.uwaterloo.ca/">Computer Science Club</a>,
- which I use for some heavier computations every now and
- again.

- <h4>GNU/Linux distros</h4>
- <p>
- I’ve used a large number of GNU/Linux distributions
- throughout the years, but as of late, my favourite distros
- are
- <a href="https://guix.gnu.org">Guix System</a>,
- <a href="https://trisquel.info">Trisquel</a>, and
- <a href="https://www.debian.org">Debian</a> (with no
- <code>contrib</code> or <code>nonfree</code>). I’m also
- hoping to find some free time to help with the
- <a href="https://lists.nongnu.org/r/gnewsense-dev/2019-08/msg00001.html">rebooting</a>
- of <a href="http://www.gnewsense.org">gNewSense</a>.
- I mostly use the
- <a href="https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/">Linux-libre</a>
- kernel. Guix System comes with Linux-libre by default,
- and on Debian-based distros I install it from jxself’s
- <a href="https://jxself.org/linux-libre/">APT repository</a>.
- </p>

- <h4>Actual computing</h4>
- <p>
- I spend most of my time inside
- <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/">GNU Emacs</a>.

- <h3>Cell phone</h3>
- <section>
- <p>
- 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
- <a href="https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/blogs/lxo/pub/0G">0G</a>
- to become a reality fast enough :)
