# Welcome
Hello and welcome, this is my personal website. It's fairly lackluster at the moment, but I plan to expand it as time passes with more interesting things whenever I see fit.
Hello, and welcome! This is my little playground for messing around with ideas on the web. It's fairly lackluster at the moment, but I plan to expand it as time passes with more interesting things.
If you'd like to learn more about me, you can check the [about](about) page. With all that being said, have fun exploring.
For the moment, you're able to check out the [about](/about) page which has a little more information about me, as well as the [machines](/machines) page for info on some of the machines I use (all run Linux!).

Who am I? I'm still not 100% sure, but I usually go by frosty (lowercase). My main interests are software development and anything Linux related.
Who am I? I'll get back to you when I'm able to fully answer. For the moment I can tell you this: the name's frosty and my main interests are software development and most things Linux related. I also used to do some photography, though I've slowed down on that. I do plan on getting into it again.
Most of my machines use some form of a minimal window manager, such as [dwm](https://dwm.suckless.org/) or [Openbox](http://openbox.org/wiki/Main_Page). These two are my bread and butter, and are my favorites to use. I recommend [Openbox](http://openbox.org/wiki/Main_Page) with the [tint2](https://gitlab.com/o9000/tint2) panel to new window manager users coming from a desktop environment.
Most of my personal machines use some form of a minimal window manager, such as [xmonad](https://xmonad.org/), [dwm](https://dwm.suckless.org/), or [Openbox](https://openbox.org/wiki/Main_Page). These are my favorite environments to be in and I often hop between them, mostly between my workstation and laptop. If you'd like to see my configurations, check out my [dotfiles](https://codeberg.org/frosty/dotfiles).
I have a few computers at home that I use for servers, development, and playing around. Most of my machines run a variant of either Arch Linux or Debian. I used to use Windows for most things, but I've stopped using it since then.
I've been getting into server management as well, though at a very surface level. Most of my servers just run some Docker containers and services. They're all for personal use and convenience, with services such as [Immich](https://immich.app/) and [Nextcloud](https://nextcloud.com/).
Other than that, I have a few other machines that I use for development and just playing around. Currently, my primary distributions are [Gentoo](https://www.gentoo.org/) and [Artix](https://artixlinux.org/) Linux. In addition to that, I also use [Void](https://voidlinux.org/) and [Devuan](https://www.devuan.org/), though for nothing serious. Check out my [machines](/machines) page for info on some of my machines I use! I plan to add more over time.
I like [gruvbox](https://github.com/morhetz/gruvbox), btw.

My primary laptop to take with me is my trusty 13-inch MacBook Air (Mid-2013). Check out the specifications [here](https://everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook-air/specs/macbook-air-core-i5-1.3-13-mid-2013-specs.html). Here's the important ones:
* CPU: Intel Core i5-4250U @ 1.3 GHz
* Memory: 4 GiB DDR3 @ 1600 MHz
* Disk: 128 GiB (proprietary) SSD
* Display: 1440x900 13.3"
* OS: [Gentoo Linux](https://www.gentoo.org/)
## What's it like?
Before you even mention it, yes, it's running Gentoo. Why am I doing this to myself? Well, this laptop is mainly a test bench for new operating systems I want to try. Currently, Gentoo is my primary non-primary OS. By that I mean, it's the current OS that I haven't installed on my workstation that I'm trying to use as a daily driver. Ignoring that, there's one issue. The Wi-Fi drivers are proprietary Broadcom garbage. Thankfully, both Gentoo and Arch have drivers available to install via their package managers, so there's no issues getting the system running.
How is Gentoo, then? Fantastic! The compile times for components such as my kernel or QtWebEngine (thanks, [qutebrowser](https://qutebrowser.org/)) are absolutely horrific. But, if you set your expectations right, it's really great to use. It's running both [dwm](https://dwm.suckless.org/) and [Openbox](http://openbox.org/wiki/Main_Page) as I often hop between them. I don't do much on it other than listen to music or keep up with this website. Though, I don't do much outside of those things in the first place.

My primary workstation is a MSI GF63 Thin 10SC-838. What a mouthful, anyways, you can see the full specifications [here](https://storage-asset.msi.com/excelSku/us/nb/GF63%20Thin%2010SC-838.pdf), but here's the gist:
* CPU: Intel i5-10500H (6 cores) @ 4.50 GHz
* Memory: 16 GiB (2x8G) @ 2666 MHz (upgraded from 8 GiB)
* GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Max-Q (4 GiB DDR5 VRAM)
* Disks: 256 GiB NVMe SSD (`/`), 512 GiB SATA SSD (`/home`)
* Display: 1920x1080 15.6"
* OS: [Artix Linux](https://artixlinux.org/)
## What's it like?
Nothing notable, it's all-round good, minus the fact it's using an NVIDIA card of course. NVIDIA and Linux go together just so well don't they? Joking aside, the real pain has been the fact it's using hybrid ([PRIME](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME)) graphics. I'm sure if I had a desktop with an NVIDIA card it'd be smooth sailing. Other than that, it's had no issues. No drivers (othe than graphics) require proprietary blobs or anything like that. Thanks Intel!
It's running the [xmonad](https://xmonad.org/) window manager, and I'm just in love with it! I'm extremely new to xmonad and Haskell in general, but it's not as scary as I thought! I'm always tweaking my configurations to both xmonad and [xmobar](https://codeberg.org/xmobar/xmobar), and it's been a blast setting my environment up just as I want. I get even more enjoyment out of xmonad than I do [dwm](https://dwm.suckless.org/) or [Openbox](http://openbox.org/wiki/Main_Page) (though I still love them both dearly).

This is my current setup for listening to music inside the terminal. Don't judge my taste too hard, please!

These are the various computers I use for different stuff. Not too interesting, but they have some cool software.
