Lofree Flow 84 (V1)
I find it utterly fascinating how a $119 mechanical keyboard has managed to bring me more joy than, say, cars I've spent 1000x as much on. Life isn't linear.

Try
Varmilo Minilo75
For a silent keyboard, the best I've found is the Varmilo Minilo75. Super nice. Upgrading from an MX Keys to that will feel like going from a flying coach to stretching your fingers in first class.
Akko MU01
This Akko MU01 keyboard is made with a real wooden case. What a funky look and feel!
KEF LSX-II Speakers
KEF LSX-II. They're sublime.
Humanscale Liberty Chair
The Humanscale Liberty chair is the greatest office chair ever made. I've been using it for 15+ years. Probably bought five of them over the years. Total GOAT 😄
Brother HL2340D
There's something hilarious about the fact that my Brother HL2340D printer has never worked as well under any operating system as it does on Linux. No drivers needed, instantly detected, prints every time. World is turning upside down!
KEF LSX II
These KEF speakers remain one of my favorite upgrades to the workstation. Wish I would have known earlier just how incredible small desk speakers like this could sound. And how easy they'd work with a USB-C connection. Can't recommend them enough!
Goggle Desk by Babini
I've had this desk for 7 years now. Not only has it held up insanely well, fingerprints just aren't a problem. It's the Goggle Desk by Babini.
Acoustic Fabric Panel
Acoustical upgrade to the home office, so those podcast recordings don't bounce straight off the concrete. Turned out really well!
Huawei MateBook Fold
Omarchy on that wild Huawei Mate Fold! I just got it hooked up yesterday as just an external display for a laptop. The 18" screen is glorious. Love to see this! Hopefully we can get a full install possible soon too.
Dell XPS 13
The keyboard on the $699 XPS13 has no right being as good as it is. Same goes for the overall build quality. You're not going to zoom through a compilation of the Linux kernel, but what a combo for the price when paired with Omarchy!
Elgato Cam Link 4K
This is exactly my podcast and screencast setup too. Just also need a Camlink 4K dongle and you're totally set: Like so many things, I just bought what @tobi told me to after seeing his superb picture quality on a call 😄
Ubiquiti U7 Pro
Ubiquity is so ridiculously good. Just did a full apartment upgrade. Cloud router, three U7 Pros. Added a local admin account for an agent. Had Claude optimize all the radio channels, tune mesh settings, and ensure all devices roamed ideally. SCI-FI!
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8
Samsung Fold 8 as an on-the-go agent terminal is pretty compelling. What a delightful form factor.
AirPods Pro
I even still use my AirPods Pro with both Omarchy and Android. They work perfectly fine. Although I hear that Samsung now has a new Buds version that's even better, so will try that next. Still, Apple does make nice hardware.
Beelink SER9
I still think @Beelinkofficial is king when it comes to mini PCs. Big fan of the SER9 HX370 on the high end and the EQR5 on the lower end.
Framework 13
The Framework 13 is sublime and under $1500. For 64GB + 1TB! My favorite laptop for a very long time.
Sony FX30
Sony FX30 w/ 14mm lens. Great camera for podcasts! No drivers needed, just USB C connection to Linux, and it's good.
Lexus LC500
I love the LC500 so much that I bought the same car twice (Malibu + Copenhagen)! It's got one of the best GT interiors of any car at any price, it sounds incredible, looks like a concept car, and drives great. One of my all time favorite cars.
Porsche 911
Two 911s. The ultimate daily sportscar!
Tesla Model Y
I've been a Tesla convert for years. Model X, Model S Plaid, Cyberbeast. But the Model Y we just got still blew me away! It feels so tight, so well built, so right. Unbelievably good car and good value. It sending an Aston Martin DBX 707 and Taycan Turbo S out of the fleet!
Grand Seiko Spring Drive UFA
Yes. The Spring Drive UFA. Great watch!
Ura Watches EON
These Casio remixes from Ura Watches go perfectly with a well-riced Linux distro 🤩
Casio W-34 (1983)
Ended up loving that retro Casio A168 so much that I tracked down an original ancestor from 1983. This is the W-34. It's got a metal case instead of plastic, even better bracelet, and virtually the same module! Less than $200 in near mint condition. Vintage LCD is 😍
Casio A168WA-1
Totally smitten with this Casio A168WA-1. What a gorgeous watch, all the complications you'd ever want, 7+ year battery life, and NO NOTIFICATIONS or other junk. Super light too. And it costs less than $20 😍
Starlink
I'm a @delta Diamond Medallion flier, and I'm generally happy with the airline, but the one thing that could make me switch to @united is Starlink. It's just so much better. Crazy to deny your customers the best just because you don't like Elon.
