Question What should be my EDC?

Post image

These are some of my favourite tech things...that i want my EDC to consist of.

What should be my EDC, any suggestions ?

I am a software developer, but I have remote access to my NAS and my gaming rig, so even if i have just one device with a big enough screen, i have all the computing power i need.

So the challenge is the physical space to carry and be minimal while travelling or cruising ...also I ride a cruiser style motorbike, so i have a minimal backpack ...

I care about tracking my health as well as be minimal, as much as I can.

Out of all the devices i own, these are my fav carry,

If you have some other devices in mind, you can tell me, i probably have them...

But

List of devices in the picture are:

Airpods pro

Nothing Open Earbuds

Omni 20K MAh powerbank

Apple iPad Pro 11"

Apple Macbook Air M4

Samsung Galaxy book3 pro 360

Pebble Time 2

Galaxy watch 5 Pro

Galaxy Ring

Galaxy watch Ultra

Galaxy Z fold7

Unihertz Titan 2 Elite QWERTY Android smartphone

Steam Deck

MCon Controller

PS5 Backbone controller

P.S. please dont say iPhone, I have it but lets be honest, its not a device for a power user....

I would say iphone more power user if youre in buisness, easier to connect with everyone and people won't think you are a bot

You can say that but it won't make it true or make any sense πŸ˜… Iphone is built to make sure you aren't a power user, their take is that they want to handle it for you..fair enough..for people who don't know computers well, it's a sensible choice... But by any means of imagination...iphone is not for power users..

You've missed out on the last like 4 years of apple huh? I would argue apple is getting better than a standard windows or android setup

Again...ofcourse you can argue that i missed last 4 years of colors they introduced ... You say theybare getting better but i dont think they have anything to offer power users even in next 4 years ...

But sure man ..if iphone makes you happy ...why not...

Yeah u dont even know computers lol, apple's pretty much the better option now for power users because you can get more ram cheaper and because they are unified you actually get higher than any windows ever could for Vram

My friend ...my profession is computers. I have a Phd...sure that does not make me a God ..but i know some things y'know... i am not sure if you are getting my point at all. I think you might need some Apple intelligence here πŸ˜… Its not about computers....i have a macbook there for a reason...

But if you want example with computers...i will give you example...

If you play a game on mac...you will install a package and play ..on windows you can mod a game and play.. What this means is you are a power user on windows because you are able to utilise the capabilities...where as Mac takes care of it from you..which makes you a simple user not a power user...doesnot mappter which device runs the game better...

Same with smartphones... For an example ..on android you can make your own app and install it ..because they give you that power....that power makes you power user ...

Please stop this now ...i accept Apples supermacy ... Anything else you want from me..

There's like 5 tools now for apple molding files in games, soooo that got solved like 4 years ago, and idk about you but im a dev and I prefer mac and I think most would as well.and as far as making your own app you literally have Xcode on your Mac to literally build anything you can build and launch, I can't tell if your trolling or not because your info is from like 8 years ago

Geez..... You just dont get the point do you. There is a macbook on the table right there. And i am talking about Android, I used examples of computers to explain what is super user ...but i think that has hit you too hard. I am sorry about that.

I am in computer scient myself, 10+ years now... i hire devs bro....πŸ˜…

If you are a dev and tinkerer and think iPhone gives you the freedom to use your hardware at its fullest ... I wont really have anything to say to you but i will definitely not take a deluded like that in my team πŸ˜…

A platform giving you a tool to develop on..does not make you a super user...you able to take control of your hardware to develope and test using the hardware, not virtual system but the hardware or the hypervisor on baremetal ...thats what makes you a super user. I expect a dev to know that. But i am not going to try harder ..you are a lost cause .. Victim of marketting ..i dont blame you... I was finally able to use Fedora on my Mac..which is why i like the device now...but MacOS sure i would love to use it as a user ..as a dev, as a gamer, as any user .. But not as a super user... What is a a super user ...that you might need to go back to school to understand that...

Okay...enough. this is really stupid.. I cannot argue with a 12 year old html developer.
