    To make our laptops look clean and minimalistic, they made us buy a bunch of dongles and adapters.

    Screw it, I’m buying a rugged laptop with the thickness of a desktop PC next

        I would love one but spending that much for something I won’t use that often seems like a waste on money, especially since my current laptop got a decade of life left with Linux.

        I do like apple as a company over Microsoft and Google but that’s like saying you rather eat a frog over spiders and cockroaches.

      Sff desktop duct taped to a portable generator and mini projector.

      To keep the size down I will use my phone as a keyboard and mouse.
