I hear what you’re saying, but not once have I ever seen somebody with lots of tabs be able to find what they’re looking for in those tabs. They almost always click through several, then open a new tab and navigate to the content they need.
FWIW I wear active noise canceling headphones when shopping and it also helps improve the experience.
I also recommend Beelink. I’ve been running an eqr6 (ryzen) for almost a year and it’s been awesome.

Maybe I’m overlooking a lot of circumstances that I haven’t encountered. Good call on the open port feature, that’s a big one that I forgot about.
Seriously. I was recently wondering why so many choose tailscale over WireGuard.
In 1999+ you could sniff people’s passwords in clear text right out of the air on public WiFi networks. tcpdump port 110 and just watch them roll in.
In the late 90’s you could use a floppy disk to boot nt and dump the password hashes of anybody who had logged in, then run them through a dictionary attack which would take a matter of minutes before learning that your company’s top employees used their favorite football team or cartoon character as their password without even appending some numbers to it. Dude with the football password even had the password emblazoned in his office wall.
One time in the 90’s I got to a password prompt and just held enter, and eventually was just let past the password prompt.
In X windows if you managed to kill the screensaver password entry box you were dropped back to the desktop, and people found ways to crash the screensaver by overrunning the password input buffer by pasting input repeatedly using common keyboard shortcuts. (Pretty sure this same exact bug exited in early Mac osx versions.)
Before the cloud it was so hard to get a budget for anything, even necessary yearly upgrades. Sometimes I would have to scrap the least important server when a component in a more important one died. Then the cloud came along and suddenly we had so much money to spend! But now it was so hard to track who spent it, what projects it was spent on, and how we could dial it down. SMH. Cloud computing can be so ridiculous.

Reserve time during your week to leave your phone at home, and leave your house for 1-4 hours. Bring a paperback book, oe visit a library and check one out. Go out for coffee and pay with cash. Go to a park with your book and coffee. Maybe bring a sandwich. Promise that you will not leave for an hour even if you start to go crazy.
What’s Up Tiger Lily
Allen took footage from a Japanese spy film, International Secret Police: Key of Keys (1965), and overdubbed it with completely original dialogue that had nothing to do with the plot of the original film. He both put in new scenes and rearranged the order of existing scenes, producing a one-hour movie from the 93 minutes of the original film. He completely changed the tone of the film from a James Bond clone into a comedy about the search for the world’s best egg salad recipe.
Welcome to 2001, when we had 56k at home, and corporate broadband 802.11b networks never had passwords.
Read the book The Demon Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark. Or better yet, listen to Carey Elwes (Westley from The Princess Bride) read it on audiobook. It tells all about charlatans and conmen, and how to be skeptical and detect their bullshit. It’s the kind of book you can skip around in too, so it’s an easy read, not too weighty, but with lots of great info and stories.
Carl Sagan was amazing.
I recently heard this great phrase:
“A VM makes an OS believe that it has the machine to itself; a container makes a process believe that it has the OS to itself.”
This would be somewhere between that, where each container could believe it has the OS to itself, but with different kernels.
I always forget to bring my bidet with me when I go on a trip!
Imagine if vendors like Anbernic started shipping devices that had phone hardware supported with open software. That would be so rad. They already run android and Linux and have a vibrant community.
I’ll grant you that, but are you implying that a large fraction, maybe close to half, of my coworkers are disabled? Surely there are other reasons.
