Hey /g/, how do you document your shit?

Like say you had to reinstall your main machine right now. (malware infection, drive death, whatever) How do you keep track of what you'd need to set up again on it? Software to be installed, how its to be configured, and so on. Yeah some of it you can just back up dotfiles in your home directory, but some stuff is either too big of a clusterfuck (GNOME/GTK stuff, Firefox configuration/profiles), or it doesn't live there (e.g., I'd have to set up Samba, ZFS on Linux, fuck around with some things in sshd_config, etc) And I'm sure some of you have fancy riced-out themes and shit. I don't even want to think about the shit I'd have to do to rebuild the Win7 machine I use for vidya.

So how do you keep track of it? Right now I just have a folder full of saved configs and checklists for where to put them and settings I need to change, wondering if there's some better way to do this that I'm missing.

Is it even possible to find a 64 or 56 at or near retail price? Anyone actually managed to source one locally in a store? I'm tired of /wait/ing and I'm not going to pay a +30% markup when I can get similar or better performance out of a 1080 / 1080ti for the same price. I have zero brand loyalty, if someone else can offer me the right deal. Can it be done, boys? Or am I going back to team green? Is this going to be the state of the industry through the end of the year?

Does anyone actually use Halite? The wiki recommended it but I'm having trouble finding literally any documentation and it seems to have way less features than qbit or deluge.

Once again, analysts have predicted a grim, grim future for the PC.

According to the latest IDC forecasts, PC sales will fall from the 435.1 million units seen in 2016 to 398.3 million in 2021. That's a five-year compound annual growth of -1.7 percent.

According to Loren Loverde, IDC's VP for Worldwide Personal Computing Device Tracker, things could turn (somewhat) around, but that depends on a couple of moving targets.

"Shipments could pick up if accelerators like economic conditions, adoption of gaming, VR, and Windows 10 speed up," Loverde said, before adding: "even in the best case, overall growth would likely remain limited."

The only machine that could actually do well in the next five years is what IDC describes as a "detachable tablet," or in other words, the Surface Pro or the iPad Pro. Devices that can be used as a tablet, but do come with a first-party keyboard of their own could succeed. However, IDC has had to contain its optimism because manufacturers aren’t building them fast enough.

The developing world isn’t helping, either. According to the report, India bought less than two million PCs last year. This is a result of an upcoming legislation in the country, which has seen resellers postponing purchases.

IDC also believes ultraslim laptops could show growth. It expects commercial PC sales to pick up the pace again in 2019.

Besides sticking a 1070 from 670 into my computer this year I haven't upgraded a single thing since 2012 and really don't think I'll need to ever again since I'm not playing many games anyway.
