I have two MacBook Pros that I use for most of my work these days; I bought one for my own personal projects a few months before getting a job at Vox and being provided with the same model.
I also have a Mac Mini that I bought in 2010.
Lastly, I have a set of Boston Acoustics computer speakers that came with the first computer I got as a teenager.
Communication
Right now I'm particularly proud of @ominouszoom and @all\in\cards and I'm working on a rewrite of Backtracks.
I also "write" a lot in Slack, which we use at Vox for work (we have over 650 channels as a company; I'm in far too many of those) and a number of other groups that I belong to with friends and collaborators.

Browser
I use Chrome as my web browser.

I signed up for Backblaze a few years ago and it's been a reliable backup service for both of my personal computers and knowing that in case of emergency I could easily recover all my data makes me feel a lot more comfortable.
