This page is not about my homelab, because there are dedicated pages for that. This page is for my daily drivers which I use. At first the hardware configurations, then the environment because it's nearly the same on all PCs. I have 4 machines which I use daily: dopey, grumpy, sneezy and sleepy. They're named after some of the dwarfs in "Snow White". I've bought a new TUXEDO this month (sleepy), which replaces grumpy (a little broken) and which I use most now.

Smartphone

I have a /e/OS OnePlus Nord Phone, which I don't use very often - Just calling and the occasional textmessage with Signal. And sometimes I take a photo. I never got into this smartphone hype although I need one for my bank account and I hate them for that! Although it's custom rom'd and nearly only uses F-Droid apps, I don't trust this effing things.

All in all - Have fun!
