TCL/Tk and Lazarus for programming.
Trinity for a desktop GUI and file manager.
VirtualBox for multiple testing environments.
VNC and SSH for managing remote machines.
VLC for playing videos.
Speedcrunch for calculations. Imagine if your calculator worked like a text editor... it solved problems I didn't even realize I had.
Right now I don't have a preferred text editor, having finally weaned myself off the one I learned back in the mid-1980s, that had to run in an emulator on modern machines. I've been switching between several GUI and text mode editors, but I haven't found anything I like enough to stay with.
A thumbdrive with Puppy Linux, which is my go-to "unhork the gestupfed computer" Swiss-Army-tool. There are other distributions specialized for that task, but Puppy has managed to do the job so far.
A Raspberry Pi with a carefully curated Pi Hole, so I don't have to configure multiple hosts files and web browsers across multiple real and virtual machines. The Web is a miserable experience without adblocking.
