MacBook Air 13"

M1 Base 2020, 16GB Memory, 256GB SSD

This MacBook is one of the best investments I've ever made. I bought the space gray version, and it's been more than enough to meet my coding requirements.

MacBook Pro 13"

Intel i5, 2015, 8GB Memory, 128GB SSD

My trusty old machine, now repurposed into a full-time home server for automation and media.

Raspberry Pi 5

Full Kit, 16GB Memory, 64GB SD

I got this Pi with a friend for my Final Year Project, but it's been very handy in helping us learn about Automation, Self-Hosting, and a lot more!

Xiaomi Redmi A27Q

27 Inch, QHD 2K

Probably my favourite purchase ever, the size, the colors, everything is perfect.

Logitech Pebble Mouse

White

This was a gift from my lovely girlfriend, so it's one of my most prized possessions. I love the minimal, sleek design, and how lightweight it is (do not scream at me about ergonomics).

Fenda F&D F580X

2 Tweeters, 1 Sub Woofer

I like speakers with good bass, and this one comes with a separate Sub Woofer. It's held up well, for over 7 years now.

Royal Kludge RK71

RGB Backlight, Brown Switches

Also a gift from my beautiful girlfriend! It's my first mechanical keyboard, and I've been loving it a lot. I'm yet to customize the full thing.

Bostitch Office Lamp

A must-have, provides adequate backlighting for my Monitor.

Kaloc Monitor Arm

My favorite gift ever (also from my amazing girlfriend). This single arm has changed my entire setup.

AirPods Pro (2nd Generation)

Can't really work outside without Lofi Jazz, or Yeat (no in between).

Transcend M3

1TB HDD

My primary storage for Media, Backups, and everything else. It's held up for over 5 years!

Hoco W35 Max

I made the stickers myself.

I mostly use these for listening to Podcasts or watching stuff on Youtube, as they're not really heavy on the Bass.

Scented Candle

Miniso (Vanilla Spice)

Sometimes when I really need to wind down, nothing beats getting on a call with my girlfriend, getting each other food, lighting up these candles, and binge watching stuff together.

Kuromi Plushie

My girlfriend won this for me at a claw machine game!

Roronoa Zoro

I got this action figure as a gift from all my friends on my 24th.

Portgas D. Ace

First action figure I ever got, a gift from my girlfriend too!

Arc

Daily Browser

My daily driver, coding browser, all in one. Arc's UX is simply unbeatable. Pity they moved on to Dia, but I'll be sticking to this browser till Zen catches up.

Cursor

Code Editor

Surprisingly, I've been using Cursor more than VSCode lately. I only realized recently that I hadn't opened VSCode in a month. I'm quite used to all the features Cursor has to offer, and I've been loving it. Might try out Claude Code next.

iTerm2

Terminal

Classic, easy, smooth. I tried Ghostty, but ran into a lot of issues when SSH-ing into other machines, so I haven't been tempted to switch.

Raycast

Spotlight Alternative

This is a must-have. The only software missing on Macs by default. I also use Raycast for AI Chat.

ChatGPT

Plus, $20/Month

The only AI toolset worth paying for. OpenAI's overall AI system and sheer number of tools make it a no-brainer for my daily use. I don't use it for coding though.

Cursor

Pro, $20/Month

I do pay for Cursor Pro, and it's been a game changer. The fact that Auto is just free and unilimited on the Pro plan makes it very valuable, and paid usage of selective models like Anthropic's and Google's ones makes it even better.

No other subscriptions, really.

I Self-Host all my media and use Open Source tools. I like the freedom it gives me.
