In the following, I discuss the software and hardware I use in my setup. Choices are made with simplicity in mind. Cross-platform software that follow the UNIX philosophy are preferred (also compliant with the XDG Base Directory Specification). As for hardware, support for UNIX-like operating systems is essential, with the focus on per-second and per-watt performance.
