About

A place for the technology, gear, and tools I actually use at home and in everyday life.

This page is for the things that otherwise end up scattered across notes, terminal history, or just my head: my setup, tools I like, and the technology I keep coming back to.

Quick navigation

I like technology you can understand, build on, and live with over time.

My name is Conny Abrahamsson and I work as a consultant and developer, with a broad interest in technology and a particular appreciation for solutions that hold up over time.

I enjoy work most when I get to combine structure, quality, and curiosity. This is where I collect the things I use, test, and keep building on, both from consulting work and from the technology that gets a place at home.

Home setup

This is some of the technology that is part of my everyday setup right now.

A mix of laptops, networking, storage, and small servers used for work, experiments, everyday life, and the kind of things that are simply more fun when you build them yourself.

I also write a small series about the home lab setup called Homelab Foundations.

Computers I use

  • MacBook Pro 14 M1 Pro 2021 512GB, silver
  • Lenovo ThinkPad T470s Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD

CalDigit TS4

The hub of my desk setup and the piece of gear that makes a lot of things just work without me having to think about it.
