Here's some of the stuff I use and how I use it.

Hardware

Not counting my homelab.

• Framework Laptop 13↗ (NixOS | i7-1280P | 32GB RAM | 1TB NVMe). This device actually started out as a Framework Chromebook Edition↗, but I swapped the mainboard and input panel to turn it into a real computer. It runs Bluefin↗ and I manage the configuration with my Chezmoi dotfiles↗.
• MNT Pocket Reform↗ (Debian | NXP i.MX8M Plus (Cortex-A53) | 8GB RAM | 128GB eMMC). This chunky little laptop is great for computing on the go, and the open-source hardware design is just begging to be hacked, modified, upgraded, and repaired. Plus it looks crispy in the dark.
• Bambu Labs P1S 3D Printer (with AMS)↗, a significant upgrade over the franken-ender3 I'd used for years.
• BOOX Note Air3 C e-ink tablet↗ for reading and (hand)writing notes (more on this here).
• Weatherflow Tempest Weather Station↗ to help me get my Wx nerd on.
• Valve Steam Deck↗ (512GB LCD model, 2TB SSD) in a dbrand Killswitch case↗ to handle all of my gaming needs.
