How I do my Computing

+ +

Computers

+

My main computer is a +soon-to-be-librebooted +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.

+ +

I also have the privilege of having access to a fleet of beefy +servers through our school's +Computer Science Club, +which I use for some heavier computations every now and +again.

+ +

GNU/Linux distros

+

I've used a large number of GNU/Linux distributions throughout the +years, but as of late, my favourite distros are +Trisquel, +Guix System, and +Debian (with no contrib or +non-free). I mostly use the +GNU Linux-libre kernel. +Guix System comes with GNU Linux-libre out of the box, and on +Debian-based distros I install it from jxself's +APT repository.

+ +

Actual computing

+

I spend most of my time in +GNU Emacs.

Cell phone

+

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 +0G to become a +reality fast enough. +:-)

+ +

Got a question or comment? You can find my +email address on my contact page. +:-)
