...Uses

This is my setup. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Last Update: 10/20/2026

Now that I have one primary place to stay, dockability has become less of a concern in my setup.

Operating Systems

• archimedes, apollo, voyager: Debian 13 (Trixie)
• pythagoras: CachyOS
• euclid: Proxmox Virtual Environment
• MacBook: MacOS 27

I often tinker with NetBSD, Plan9, Haiku, and more, typically through virtual machines. I also used to use Trisquel.

Desktop Enviroments

• archimedes, apollo, voyager, pythagoras: Xfce4

I will sometimes use Sway instead of Xfce4 if I ever need a more minimal, focused environment, usually for writing, studying, or coding.

Misc

• Terminal Emulator: alacritty, ocassionally foot
• Text Editor: Emacs, sometimes Neovim
• Notes: org-mode with org-roam
• Browser: Librewolf
• Sync: Syntcthing
• Calculator: For quick claculations, Python or Emacs Calc. For more complex stuff, Sage or Mathematica
