Slashdot Asks: What's Your Computer Set-Up Look Like?

I thought it'd be fun to ask Slashdot readers one of the same questions we asked Larry Wall: What's your computer set-up look like? Slashdot reader LichtSpektren had asked: Can you give us a glimpse into what your main work computer looks like? What's the hardware and OS, your preferred editor and browser, and any crucial software you want to give a shout-out to?
Larry Wall is running Linux Mint (Cinnamon edition), and he surfs the web with Firefox (and Chrome on his phone) -- "but I'm not a browser wonk. Maybe I'll have more opinions on that after our JS backend is done for Perl 6..." And for a text editor, he's currently ensconced in the vi/vim camp, though "I've used lots of them, so I have no strong religious feelings."

So leave your answers in the comments. What's your OS, hardware, preferred editor, browser, "and any crucial software you want to give a shout-out to?" What does your computer set-up look like?

They are computers that limit your access to protect you from yourself.

Sadly the hardware is also designed to protect the hardware from you as well. Very Very few tablets or mobile system allow you to have full control over them and install whatever Operating system you want.

Yes little billy, at one time we had real freedom where you owned the hardwware you purchased, not like today. But back then the populace had more education and actually tried to learn on their own. People tinkered with electronics and built things.

That was before the "restore consumer pride act of 2022" where making things yourself was deemed illegal. I remember when your grandmother actually made her own sweater, and I actually repaired a car once.
