Two screens. One is dedicated to the IDE, the other is everything else: browser, mail and chat clients, docs, maybe another IDE with a REPL to play with stuff.
I find I need a large code window. I know devs that use a 4K monitor the same way, but I don't have one.

I use MX, and it's very good, but technically it's based on Debian.

I went on a vacation trip last week. We took the ferry fron Connecticut to Long Island, rode our bikes from Orient Point to the Hamptons, took the train to New York City, hung out in Brooklyn for 4 days. No car the whole way. It was awesome. Brooklyn is super cool, biking in NYC is the best way to enjoy the city. I am full of ideas for the next trip.

I did. It was perfectly fine, got a new condition, slightly older model phone for about half price. Unlocked.

You can, BTW, enable systemd on MX, no problems. I do. It's a good distro besides that.

My wife is having cardiac surgery right now, I am staying at a hotel near the hospital, working remotely, trying to keep busy and not think about it too much.

Specifically, good things on the World Wide Web: research. The amount of good information available is incredible, compared with pre-Internet times. Weather forecasts, what the space telescope is looking at, what's happening in other parts of the world places in their own voice.

Sure, there is misinformation as well, and some people will cast doubt on anything they don't like or try to drown it out, but get past that, and this is a golden age of knowledge.

Pushing a tricycle around the yard. It was too big for me to ride. About 3 years old. I know it's my real memory because it's very sensory, the grass was tall and tickled my legs, and the trike was rusty and squeaked. It feels slightly alien, I can't quite understand 3 year old me.

The first time I did a web site that was any use to other people, was exactly like this.

Only on a VM. Like a lot of less common OSs, drivers are a problem.
