<h1>My computing experience</h1>
<p>
These are the things I use in my day-to-day computing
experience both at home and work. As I enjoy working
from my computer and tweaking it, I recommend them all.
</p>
<p>
My configuration files for some of these softwares can
be found on my
<a href="https://gitjoe.xyz/jozan/dotfiles-bsd/files.html">
dotfiles
</a>
repo on GitJoe. My wallapers can be found on
<a href="files.html">this page</a>.
</p>
<h2>Software</h2>
<p>
<img src="img/neofetch.jpg" alt="neofetch.jpg" width="600">
<ul>
<li>
<h4>Text editing</h4>
Custom configured <b>GNU Emacs</b> to be used
with vim key bindings. It is not the most
lightweight editor out there but I love my
config for all kind of coding or text editing.
I use the GUI version.
</li>
<li>
<h4>OS</h4>
<b>FreeBSD 13</b> is my OS of choice. I left
GNU/Linux for BSD about 1 year ago and I never
felt the need to go back!
</li>
<li>
<h4>Window manager</h4>
<b>dwm</b> is my favorite tiling window manager
and the only one I use for it is very light and
highly extensible.
</li>
<li>
<h4>Terminal emulator</h4>
<b>st</b> is my favorite terminal emulator.
Just like <b>dwm</b>, it's very light and highly
extensible.
</li>
<li>
<h4>Shell</h4>
I use <b>zsh</b> as my only interactive shell.
</li>
<li>
<h4>Other software</h4>
Here is a small list of programs I use frequently.
Most are terminal-based.
<ul>
<li>
web browser: <b>Mozilla Firefox</b> for
most web browsing. I also use <b>w3m</b>
and <b>lynx</b> quite a lot.
</li>
<li>file manager: <b>lf</b></li>
<li>image viewer: <b>nsxiv</b></li>
<li>video player: <b>mpv</b></li>
<li>music player: <b>mpd</b> + <b>ncmpc</b></li>
<li>pdf viewer: <b>zathura</b></li>
<li>RSS feed reader: <b>newsboat</b></li>
<li>email client: <b>neomutt</b> running with <b>isync</b> and <b>msmtp</b></li>
<li>address book: <b>abook</b></li>
<li>calendar: <b>calcurse</b>
<li>IRC client: <b>irssi</b>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<h4>Games</h4>
I haven't played much video games in recent times
but here's what I used to play a lot:
<ul>
<li>
<b>Kerbal Space Program</b> on my Linux
machine, I loved this game!
</li>
<li>
<b>Classic DOOM</b> and <b>Hexen</b>
through <b>gzdoom</b>, it runs very
smooth on BSD.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</p>
<h2>Hardware</h2>
<p>
My computer is a ThinkPad T530 and I love it. Here is
the hardware config:
<ul>
<li>Intel i5-3320M 2.60GHz, 4 threads</li>
<li>8GB RAM</li>
<li>500GB SSD</li>
<li>1TB HDD</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
I know it's not crazy good but I can do all my work and
my media consumption with it so I consider myself a
tech-happy guy.
</p>
<h3>Other notable hardware</h3>
<p>
I have a RaspberryPi 4 I received from a friend as a
christmas gift. It runs FreeBSD of course. I use it to
learn I2C/GPIO programming with a bit of electronics. I am
looking for some projects for it.
<br>
I have a Casio F-91W watch gifted by a friend too so I
never loose time.
<br>
Last piece of hardware worth noting is my keyboard: a
<a href="https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_list&c=169">
Leopold
</a>
FC900R PD with Cherry MX Brown switches. It is so
good I plan on buying maybe 5 of them in the future so I
don't need to worry and I can just use it the same model
for all my life. I might check some of the
<a href="https://www.pckeyboard.com/">Unicomp</a> Model M
remake when they are available again.
