What I do when setting up a new computer - 2023-11-12

  • I'm setting up a new computer soon, and I found myself with some spare time. I thought I'd jot down what I'll do when I eventually set it up and (if I remember to do so) also update it as time goes by.

    For reference, it'll be a Windows gaming laptop, so I won't be setting up a Unix OS or performing any dual boot shenanigans.
