Hardware

Laptop

As of June 2022, I am now using a Lenovo Thinkpad E15 Gen 4 (15") with the following configuration:

Processor: AMD Ryzen™ 5 5625U Processor (2.30 GHz, up to 4.30 GHz Max Boost, 6 Cores, 12 Threads, 16 MB Cache)
Graphics: Integrated AMD Radeon™ Graphics
Memory: 16 GB DDR4 3200MHz (8 GB Soldered + 8 GB DIMM)
Storage: 512 GB PCIe SSD Gen 4
Display: 15.6" FHD (1920 x 1080) IPS, anti-glare, 300 nits

For the 1-2 years prior to this, I was using a 2019 Intel-based Macbook Pro (16"). Prior to the Macbook, I used a ASUS X751L (17") laptop for 5-ish years.
