Outpost

A desktop that my older brother built back in the day. It is the first computer I ever installed Linux on! It is primarily used for all of my music creation, half of my digital art, a bit of game development, gaming, and assorted computationally "intense" tasks.

Memories

Nov 24, 2020: "I have a weird little tradition that I do every time one of my computers breaks down or is hit with some serious error: I bake a pound cake, and fix the computer during the wait periods. I have no idea of how this tradition formed, but today is my younger brother's birthday, and he apparently loves my pound cake enough to ask me if I can make one for his birthday :D" (Source)
