13 May, 2019 My setup My daily drivers---hardware, software and workflow Hardware The only computer I have with me is my [1]HP Envy 13 (2018) (my model looks a little different). It's a 13" ultrabook, with an i5 8250u, 8 gigs of RAM and a 256 GB NVMe SSD. It's a very comfy machine that does everything I need it to. For my phone, I use a [2]OnePlus 6T, running stock [3]OxygenOS. As of this writing, its bootloader hasn't been unlocked and nor has the device been rooted. I'm also a proud owner of a [4]Nexus 5, which I really wish Google rebooted. It's surprisingly still usable and runs Android Pie, although the SIM slot is ruined and the battery backup is abysmal. My watch is a [5]Samsung Gear S3 Frontier. Tizen is definitely better than Android Wear. My keyboard, although not with me in college, is a very old [6]Dell SK-8110. For the little bit of gaming that I do, I use a [7]HP m150 gaming mouse. It's the perfect size (and color). For my music, I use the [8]Bose SoundLink II. Great pair of headphones, although the ear cups need replacing. And the software [DEL: My distro of choice for the past ~1 year has been [9]elementary OS. I used to be an Arch Linux elitist, complete with an esoteric window manager, all riced. I now use whatever JustWorks(TM). :DEL] Update: As of June 2019, I've switched over to a vanilla Debian 9 Stretch install, running [10]i3 as my window manager. If you want, you can dig through my configs at my [11]dotfiles repo. Here's a (riced) screenshot of my desktop. scrot Most of my work is done in either the browser, or the terminal. My shell is pure [12]zsh, as in no plugin frameworks. It's customized using built-in zsh functions. Yes, you don't actually need a framework. It's useless bloat. The prompt itself is generated using a framework I built in [13]Nim -- [14]nicy. My primary text editor is [15]nvim. Again, all configs in my dotfiles repo linked above. I manage all my passwords using [16]pass(1), and I use [17]rofi-pass to access them via rofi. Most of my security tooling is typically run via a Kali Linux docker container. This is convenient for many reasons, keeps your global namespace clean and a single command to drop into a Kali shell. I use a DigitalOcean droplet (BLR1) as a public filehost, found at [18]x.icyphox.sh. The UI is the wonderful [19]serve, by [20]ZEIT. The same box also serves as my IRC bouncer and OpenVPN (TCP), which I tunnel via SSH running on 443. Campus firewall woes. I plan on converting my desktop back at home into a homeserver setup. Soon(TM).
