My tech

I love tech, actually.

Main Workspace

I run a minimal, but pleasing Arch config with Hyprland BSPWM, which works seemingly well for my needs and helps me focus.

I use an ergonomic mouse and a keyboard with the Colemak layout. Aah I love the Extend layer!

Stream Rig / Secondary

I find having another PC extremely helpful in keeping me focused and avoid any unforeseen calamities (crashing, freezes, etc).

Having a separate PC just for streaming allows me to stop worrying and do what truly matters (study!!). (I use a BSPWM+Ubuntu rig, a much stable and safe system)

Other Devices

E-reader: Kobo Clara BW

I recently got this Kobo e-reader to read books, papers, and so on. It has been a wonderful experience so far. It is very pleasant to read. My only wish is that I want to review my Anki decks on this device[1].

I use KO-Reader with this.

(Only Phone) Redmi Note 9 Pro Max

I have dumbed out my phone, mostly using apps like ScreenZen and the Before Launcher. I've hidden most of the apps, and don't use too many of them.

I also use this phone as my primary camera for my streams.

Camera: Sony Cybershot DSC-W830

I use this point and shoot camera to take pictures whenever I go out. I don't typically use my phone to take pictures. It feels great actually.

But unfortunately, the image stabilizer doesn't work that great anymore.

Footnotes

  1. It is possible on Android e-ink devices like Onyx Boox Palma, but they are WAYYY too expensive for me ↩︎
