-I'm a [university](https://www.fmi.uni-sofia.bg/en) student and general computer nerd. Currently, it seems that operating systems, browsers (how they work, not webdev) old tech and a teeny weeny bit of server administration and embeded systems interest me.
+I'm a [university](https://www.fmi.uni-sofia.bg/en) student and general computer nerd.
+My current interests include: operating systems, functional programming, webdev (without **any** libraries, pure JavaScript), old tech, some amount of server administration and a teeny weeny bit of computer history.
-I have a good amount of [projects under my belt](https://gitlab.com/users/Syndamia/projects), although very few are actually useful. I've put down the more notable ones [here](/software), but [filite-list](https://github.com/Syndamia/filite-list) and [min-youtube-element-blocker](https://github.com/Syndamia/min-youtube-element-blocker) seems to have gotten the most attention (if any).

-As for what exactly you can expect in the future, anything goes really. I've done professional-ish web development (back-end + front-end), embeded programming (ok, it might've been a singular Arduion, but thats still embeded!), a whole lot of scripting (even a bit of Batch scripting), more server and system configuring that I would ever want, I have even written in [Haskell](https://gitlab.com/Syndamia/algorithms/-/blob/master/Haskell/LINQuistics.hs) (yes, I'm still proud of this code, yes it can be improved, shut up). So, who knows what's gonna be next.

+I've done a lot of low(er)-level programming, a bit less functional programming, professional-ish web development (back-end + front-end), a whole lot of scripting (even a bit of Batch, not Bash, scripting) and more server/system administration that I would ever want.
+So, who knows what's gonna be next.
-However there isn't too much I can show now, especially as content on this website... But hey, you gotta start somewhere!

> Setup
-I have a desktop (old dude, Intel Core i3-4160, 8GiB RAM and AMD Radeon Sapphire RX256) and a laptop (Lenovo Yoga S730), both running Linux.
+The machines I use on a daily basis are a desktop PC from 2015:
-My current distribution of choice is Funtoo (for desktop, Debian for servers), but I used to main Linux Mint and Fedora.
+- Intel Core i3-4160
+- 16GiB RAM, DDR3
+- AMD Radeon Sapphire RX256
-As for desktop environment, I don't use any. I always start from a blank, terminal-only install and setup my stuff from there. More notably, I use Openbox as my window manager and lightdm as my display manager. Also vim as my text editor/IDE. You can explore my dotfiles [here](https://gitlab.com/Syndamia/dotfiles) and the applications I use [here](https://gitlab.com/Syndamia/dotfiles/-/blob/main/README.md)
+and a laptop from 2019 (Lenovo Yoga S730):
+
+- Intel Core i7-8565U
+- 16 GiB RAM, DDR4
+
+both running Linux.
+
+My current desktop distribution of choice is Gentoo, but I used to main Linux Mint, Fedora and Funtoo.
+For servers, I use Debian, though I have used Ubuntu.
+
+As for a desktop environment, I use Openbox (which is a WM, I know) alongside mostly Gnome applications.
+I've publically shared the [exact (Gentoo) packages](https://gitlab.com/Syndamia/dotfiles/-/blob/main/.b/etc/portage/sets/openbox-de) as well as a [more general package list](https://gitlab.com/Syndamia/dotfiles/-/blob/main/.c/Application%20Stack.md).
+
+
+My primary text editor is [vim](https://www.vim.org/) and shell is [zsh](https://www.zsh.org/).
+My dotfiles are available on [gitlab](https://gitlab.com/Syndamia/dotfiles).
