I was seriously considered just getting portable monitor and peripherals for my SD when my laptop died, but I ended up with a laptop again.

I mean you have to buy a dock, oR basically any usb-c dongle with HDMI and it works great. I wouldn't say you should get it for that express purpose, not if you already have it, it works great.

Using a phone charger on a laptop just means your laptop will charge slow but should absolutely work. Cat toy should also just work. As long as a charger is halfway decent it should support USB-PD and then it just kinda works on everything.

FOSSE kinda sucks for a bunch of reasons, but the simple fact that you can navigate it entirely by keyboard shortcuts means you can go really fast once you get used to it. Of course those shortcuts can change from screen to screen. Exit, for example is sometimes x, sometimes e.

Can somebody please explain to me that if I were to download a movie and watch it, that's piracy. If OpenAI does it, it's perfectly fine.

I've had apt so basically this far too many times. Taught me a lot of how Linux works though, lol.

Bitwarden makes them easy (in my experience)

For some stupid reason I've decided my opinions are good enough to put them on the internet. This is probably a bad decision, lol. darkstorm.tech

Go Packages - Go Packages Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.

One of the most underrated things about Go is pkg.go.dev. Every other language I've used has comparatively garbage docs. As with everything it's not perfect, but 98% of the time I find the docs I need very quickly.

Look into Waydroid on Linux. You have jump through some hoops to get Google Play working, but Minecraft works great.
