Uses

Here you will find information on the hardware and software that I regularly enjoy, and recommend. My software usage frequently fluctuates, but the software and services listed below have stayed with me over the years.

Computers

Buckwheat

My main desktop computer; the first custom computer I have ever built for myself. 13th Gen Intel Core i7-13700K CPU and 64Gb DDR4 RAM on a Gigabyte Z790 AORUS ELITE ATX Motherboard

Fireweed

A monstrous 2011 MacBook Pro with the main drive swapped to an SSD, the optical drive swapped for an internal drive, and RAM maxxed to 16Gb. I believe it is the last MacBook that allows modification

Clover

A Lenovo all-in-one that I saved from the dump, gives me something to watch movies and shows in my bedroom

Basswood

A 2013 MacBook Pro that I keep for some MacOS software, listed below

Bluegum

A 2017 iPad Pro 10in

Alfalfa

An iPhone 11 Max Pro that I get from work. The phone wasn’t being used in a drawer, and I needed an upgrade at the time.

Operating Systems

These are my currently used operating systems, be sure to check out my favorite and alternative operating systems:

Fedora Silverblue, installed on Clover, Buckwheat, and Fireweed.
OpenBSD, installed on various virtual machines running different services.

Windows. I do not enjoy nor recommend Windows for regular use, but I am listing it here because I use and support it every day at work
