Sharing is caring and i thought it would be useful to share my setups and technologies, not an exhaustive list by any means, just the things that come to mind. Inspired by uses.tech movement.
Hardware
Laptop
Lenovo Legion 7 - AMD Ryzen 9 - RADEON 6900HX - 32GB/2TB
I simply love this machine, can handle heavy duties or deal with daily tasks like a charm and Lenovo is one of the few brands which still allows easy hardware replacements and have a very good compatibility with Linux.
NAS
QNAP NAS TS-253A
An old piece of hardware which gloriously still stands from the modern pletora of SOHO NAS. Still reliable, support wide hardware expansions and runs smoothly.
Monitor
27" Philips 272V8A
Just a regular monitor for daily basis tasks. Looking to upgrade to something more recent, dreaming a vertical one.
Yodoit 15.6" - Portable monitor
Suggested by a friend for its usability and simplicity, it’s an amazing EDC tool to keep on your backpack, especially when on travels.
ioT
Raspberry Pi Model B+
Back in time, when they was cheaper and i had more spare time, i got a couple of this tiny SBC to tinker a bit, especially to build some hardware tiny projects. Still running smoothly some of the core services of my home network.
OrangePi Lite
Can’t help myself about not trying one of the most famous SBC chinese clone. Needs some efforts to made it up but still serves some of my core services for my domestic environment.
