Hardware

Main

  • Computer: MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2023), 2023, M2 Pro, 32GB RAM, and 1TB SSD. This is the computer I use most of the time.
  • Mouse: Magic Mouse. I’m too used to using the gestures on the magic mouse to switch to a “regular” one now. I do think sometimes about getting a magic trackpad for the gestures and using a regular mouse like the Logitech Lift Vertical I use at work.
  • Keyboard: Keychron Q1 Max purple with Gateron Jupiter Red Switches and ANSI Layout. Using the knob is as pleasing as you’d expect.
  • Displays: Two DELL 27 4K UHD S2721QS with a 60hz refresh rate. I’ve never been able to see the difference between 60hz and higher refresh rates anyways. I use my mac on clamshell mode. Two screens are enough for me.
  • Speakers:: I alternate between the three below, but mostly use the Logitech ones.
    • Logitech Z207: They are ok. The bluetooth connection is a bit laggy when I start playing something new, but after it starts playing it’s fine. I don’t know if it’s a software issue or not but this happened on both of my computers, so I generally use it wired with my Mac.
    • Sony WH-1000XM5: I like the sound and noise cancelling but the smaller band than the M4s gives me a headache sometimes, also it doesn’t fold.
    • AirPods Pro 2: My everyday earphones.
  • Microphone: Razer Seiren V3 Mini. I don’t understand anything about audio, but they work fine. I like that it comes with a desk stand base. I don’t have space on my table to mount an arm for the mic.
  • Dock Station: CalDigit TS3 Plus. I love not having to plug a million cable everytime I want to plug/unplug my Mac. It’s the DisplayPort is a bit finicky, I wish I had the model with two Thunderbolt ports.

Gaming PC

2D Cars

  • Gaming Computer: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D 8-Core Processor, 32GB DDR4 RAM, NVidia GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER (12GB), 1TB SSD. It was the first PC I ever built.
  • Mouse: Logitech M650 L. I like it because the buttons are so smooth and quiet.
  • Rest: The other peripherals are the same I use with my mac minus the dock.

Software

Main

  • OS: macOS 26.5.2 (25F84). I try to keep on the latest unless I see it’s unstable.
  • Terminal: iTerm 2.
  • Shell: Zsh with Oh My Zsh and Powerlevel10k.
  • Editor: VS Code.
  • Browser: Firefox

Gaming PC

  • OS: Windows 10 Pro (22H2). I refuse to upgrade to 11 or higher with the keylogger that is Recall and AI slop all over it. I only use Windows at all because of game compatibility.
  • Browser: Firefox
