The following is a list of the different technologies that I use on a daily basis. This includes my computers, the software I run on them, how I host stuff and other miscellaneous stuff.

I've also added the names of my machines as I think these are fun to show. The naming convention I went for was different arcs/sagas from One Piece.

## 🐧 Hardware (+ OS)
#### personal laptop (water7)
My primary laptop that I use for all schoolwork and personal stuff is my **14" Acer Swift 3**. Its got an i5 processor, a 1TB SSD and 8GB of RAM. I bought this back in 2020 when I managed to spill some juice over my MacBook Air which sadly "died".

Recently moved over to Linux Mint from Arch. The laptop is okay, and looks very nice with the Minecraft GRUB!

#### gaming pc (skypiea)
## Hardware
For gaming and just mindless browsing at home I use a prebuilt **HP Omen 30L**. I bought this back in 2021, because my first gaming pc was kinda slowing down and I wanted the new 3080 graphics card hehe. On the OS side it's running Windows 11 because some of the games I play unfortunately won't work on Linux, but I might do the switch anyways some time in the future.

Actually my latest addition! I bought this **HP Prodesk 600 G3 SFF** from [bergenbruktpc.no](https://bergenbruktpc.no/) on sale for around 1300NOK with an additional 16GBs of RAM. I installed ProxMox on it after quite a lot of BIOS hassle. In short, the specs are an Intel Core i7-6700, 256GB NVME SSD, 500GB HDD & 32GB RAM.
