Hardware

+
    +
  • Self-built tower PC +
      +
    • Components include a Fractal Pop Mini Air case, an AMD Ryzen 5600 CPU, an Nvidia RTX 3070 graphics card, and 2 TB of Samsung NVMe storage
    • +
    • I also carried over the DVD drive from my old PC
    • +
    • Three monitors are plugged into my PC: a 32in Samsung M7 2160p smart monitor, a 24in 1080p Samsung TV from 2014, and a 24in 1200p 16:10 Dell monitor
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5-14AKP G10 +
      +
    • Currently running Windows 11, but I'm planning to install Fedora KDE!
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Logitech MX Master 3S mouse +
      +
    • Don't buy this. I kind of like the mouse, but the rubber is clearly taking a toll from regular use
    • +
    • Also, the left/right click buttons are cheap and WILL fail. I already replaced mine because the right click was far too unreliable (worked maybe 20% of the time). Replacing the microswitch requires soldering
    • +
    • Also also, it only has a 125 Hz polling rate, which is pretty low, especially when using a 120+ Hz display
    • +
    • As far as I read, the MX Master 4 is plagued by the same issues, except for the rubber, which was fortunately replaced with solid plastic
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Logitech MX Mechanical keyboard +
      +
    • I like this keyboard, despite the issues with the related mouse!
    • +
    • I should maybe have gotten the non-numpad version, because it is quite wide...
    • +
    • I do like having the numpad though
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro headphones +
      +
    • Love these headphones. They're not the most stylish, but they sound really good
    • +
    • They're best suited for indoor use though
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Anker Nano 100W USB-C charger +
      +
    • I carry this with me everywhere. Since virtually all my devices use USB-C nowadays, I can charge anything using just this small brick
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Bambu Lab A1 mini 3D printer +
      +
    • Very easy-to-use 3D printer! Produces good results too
    • +
    • I don't really recommend it though. Bambu is pretty much the Apple of 3D printing; you'll be locked into their ecosystem
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Samsung Galaxy S20 FE +
      +
    • Bought this in 2021 and have no issues with it. Don't feel like I need a new phone anytime soon
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Samsung Galaxy Buds+ +
      +
    • Reliable and good battery life despite their age, but one of the tips is starting to tear and the sound isn't that great anymore
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Sony DualSense controller +
      +
    • Gave away my PS5 but kept the controller. I like its weight and how it feels. USB-C is a big plus too
    • +
    +
  • +

+

Software

+
    +
  • Godot game engine +
      +
    • Switched over to this after the Unity runtime fee controversy in 2023
    • +
    • It's so enjoyable to use, I recommend it to pretty much anyone who wants to get into gamedev
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Blender 3D modelling suite +
      +
    • I'm more and more getting into 3D modelling, and Blender is really good for this
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Obsidian markdown editor +
      +
    • Switched over from Notion because I disliked having all my notes in Notion's proprietary standard and stored only in their cloud
    • +
    • Canvas is super cool for organising things in a pinboard style
    • +
    • The kanban plugin makes for a great TODO list
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Visual Studio Code +
      +
    • Great as an all-rounder code editor
    • +
    • This website is written using VS Code!
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Nextcloud +
      +
    • I self-host an instance as my personal cloud for syncing game assets and for tasks
    • +
    • I've been using tasks to organise myself a lot – since 2015 or so
    • +
    +
  • +
  • paint.net +
      +
    • A simple-to-use image editor that I've been using for a very long time
    • +
    • Windows-only unfortunately
    • +
    +
  • +
  • Affinity image editing suite +
      +
    • For more sophisticated projects and for vector art, I use this instead
    • +
    +
  • +
  • PCSX2 PlayStation 2 emulator +
      +
    • Shoutout to this amazing emulator – I use it to play Ratchet & Clank without needing my PS2
    • +
    • This emulator got really good in recent years and nowadays runs even difficult-to-emulate games (such as Ratchet & Clank) perfectly even on my laptop
    • +
    +
