I have 3 of them. Also, it has two small USB slots on the back, perfect for the Logitech dongle that talks to a m570 trackball. Three identical setups, 2 at home, one at work. Observe that esc and ctrl are in the correct place with the HH lite. Just right for Emacs.

Use it all the time for my embedded stuff. Even on a $2 bluepill. http://www.hrrzi.com/
Been doing rom fw for SoCs for years. I am 56. There is a near 100% chance you have used some of my code indirectly as these SoCs are ubiquitous. Young coders show no interest in this type of work, also, the c/asm code must be near bug free since respins cost $100'sk and schedule loss.
Done. Where's my money?
IBM 370 via punch cards. This was 1979. Luckily got a wilbur acct for the 370 assembly class or it too would have been punch cards. Imagine assembly on punch cards....
Before that if it counts, Ti 58C calc.

Leaving the HD at home. At least with audio it streams nicely to wherever, video needs a good LTE link and a NAS that can transcode (Intel).

Using punch cards on CUNY's 370. Max was about 3 runs/listings per day.
Switched to plex and never looked back. Works streamed to your cell, and then on to a bt stereo in the car also. Joy. Ripping though, I still use itunes, and then move the media to the plex server.

>Do you believe rehabilitation is impossible or do you want revenge?
I don't believe that someone who commits mass murder can be rehabilitated, no. It isn't about revenge; it's about public safety.
Someone once pointed out that hoping a rapist gets raped in prison isn't a victory for his victim(s), because it somehow gives him what he had coming to him, but it's actually a victory for rape and violence. I wish I could remember who said that, because they are right. The score doesn't go Rapist: 1 World: 1. It goes Rape: 2.
What this man did is unspeakable, and he absolutely deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison. If he needs to be kept away from other prisoners as a safety issue, there are ways to do that without keeping him in solitary confinement, which has been shown conclusively to be profoundly cruel and harmful.
Putting him in solitary confinement, as a punitive measure, is not a victory for the good people in the world. It's a victory for inhumane treatment of human beings. This ruling is, in my opinion, very good and very strong for human rights, *precisely* because it was brought by such a despicable and horrible person. It affirms that all of us have basic human rights, even the absolute worst of us on this planet.
This is precisely why I lost all interest in Oculus the instant I heard that it had been acquired by Facebook.
This is one of the reasons Costco is successful. You let them 'curate' by picking a subset of items they like and can get a good discount on. It's very well known to them that the paralysis mentioned leads to a more stressful shopping experience for shoppers, less selection => less stress. If you don't like that model, there are other stores eager to help.
