My setup
Because everyone does one and FOMOJust wanted to put up everything I use in one post. Who knows, maybe I can compare it with what I have 5 years from now :-I ??
Hardware#
-
ASUS Zephyrus G14: Ryzen 4800HS, GTX1660Ti, 1TB SSD. The 1TB SSD does help in having enough space for both my Linux and Windows boots. Also Team Red <3.
-
Logitech M331: cheap, comfy and silent wireless mouse.
-
Jaybird X3: Great pair of wireless earphones. Although the battery life can be improved—constantly having to plug it in after just 4-5 hours of continuous use.
-
OnePlus 6: SD 845, 6GB RAM, 128GB storage. What more do I want from a phone? Haven’t rooted it yet—will root it as soon as OnePlus drops support for software updates.
-
SanDisk Ultra Dual Drive USB 3.0: Got it when micro-USBs were ubiquitous. Now have changed it to my solution to all my live ISOs. Powered by Ventoy.
-
Western Digital My Passport: Nothing beats a good ol’ backup on an external HDD. Mostly used for academic files.
Software#
-
Manjaro Linux: Bleeding-edge like Arch. Noob-resistant like Ubuntu. Best of both worlds.
Also, I didn’t have the time nor patience to install vanilla Arch Linux in the middle of a really frustratingly hard semester. SoonTM. -
Windows 10: Exclusively used for Fortnite and Among Us.
-
KDE Plasma + i3: Match made in heaven. i3’s productivity when I’m in the zone. Plasma when I’m lazy watching YT.
-
Neovim: The good parts of Vim and more1. Case in point: Lua instead of Vimscript.
-
Firefox: Does all the things I want and also the only browser (coincidentally) that supports insti’s internal sites.
-
pass: Manages all my passwords. Use PassFF for integration with Firefox.
-
Apple Music: Can’t really have a good local, offline setup for my 10,000+ song library—too much disk usage, and restricted to one device.
All my dotfiles here.
