Reply to comment by other_usernames_gone in PotatoP Laptop Aims for Two Years of Battery Life by diacewrb
Now that it's proven, I'd love to see a usable one, even still as a hobby project.
Something like a non-backlit tft display, perhaps in vertical orientation for coding, would make things much more usable, and there's room in that case for many times more battery capacity.
A similar soc should still have enough grunt to run Linux and an IDE, and now you've got a decent dev box with the same or more runtime.

Reply to comment by Writteninsanity in [WP] The aliens, it seems, do not consider us a sentient species because we are unable to 'keeneetaa'. We still haven't figured out what that means. by limbodog
Love it! And I hope I'm not spoiling anything, but I was expecting our Keeneetaa to be music! And the other species just hadn't realized it.

Reply to Does Vienna wait for us, or is life a race against ourselves? [Discussion] by TreatThompson
>I’m overwhelmed with the feeling to not spend any time leisurely. I feel guilty if I don’t spend most of my time building towards what I want.
But what you want is the ability to spend time leisurely. It's why we do everything. If you're already there, even for a bit, not taking the opportunity goes against your own ideal!
There's a balance... It's the child with a marshmallow experiment. Will the child eat the marshmallow now, or wait and get two marshmallows later? Eventually you have to eat some amount of marshmallows, or the experiment ends.
Taken to it's extreme, you can work all your life and retire with millions of dollars, and find that you squandered your youth and now have an old and broken body that can't enjoy the money.
Even if you had a billion dollars, you'd always be working toward something. Even if it was just spending time managing your employees, finances or charities. So there's always work. You have to blend the leisure, your actual goal, into the work time, the time that's spent getting to be able to enjoy leisure.
We all have a limited time here. Don't overspend it on the work side of the equation.

I would love for the narrator to have been a psychologist in life, and he ends up being Lucifer's unintentional therapy guy who ends up redeeming him and saving trillions of souls in the process. :)
