Uses

Colophon #

• Frontend: just HTML and CSS, 100% JavaScript free.
• Generator: Jekyll since this site was hosted at GitHub Pages before.

Hardware #

• Intel NUC

  Compact. Inexpensive. Linux friendly.

• HP Z22n G2 Display

  Compact. Accurate color. 1920 x 1080 is sufficient for Linux.

• IKBC C87

  • Wired: Bluetooth keyboards may have troubles when booting a full-disk encryption Linux.
  • 80%: Less space but all functional keys (F1-F12, arrow keys, etc) are available.
  • Cherry MX Brown: Cherry MX Switches are reliable. Actually I am fine with both brown and red switches.
  • PBT: Resist to oil, sweat, and lotion. More durable.
  • Steel board: I dislike this. It makes the keyboard heavier.
  • Not programmable: Less convenient but acceptable.

• Razer DeathAdder Left-handed Edition

  One of the few left-handed mouses.

• iPhone SE

  A small portable phone. In fact, I prefer Android phones, but Google only provides three years of security updates for Pixel phones. For example, Pixel 4a will not receive any security updates after 2023. I also prefer the first generation of iPhone SE, which is lighter and smaller. However, the first generation uses the A9 chip which is vulnerable to checkm8. Thus, I chose the second generation.

Software #

• Debian

  Under WSL at office and Ubuntu at Home.

• Firefox

  Firefox sucks. But other browsers suck more.

• LunarVim

  With Neovim native LSP, GitHub Copilot, and LanguageTool, under Alacritty terminal emulator.

• VSCode

  I use VSCode for ReScript, since the official vim plugin is sitll based on coc.vim, and its language server is outdated compared to the one included in the VSCode extension.

• Dolphin

  Probably the most functional GUI file manager in Linux.

Wear #

All casual clothing, mostly H&M, Uniqlo, Decathlon, and Lululemon. I have no formal, semiformal, or informal clothing, thus usually ignore any dress code, and never go to places enforcing a non-casual dress code. I usually wear sneakers and prefer vintage style running shoes, those revised models originated from 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, light and comfort.
