One downside of running linux is that I have NO CLUE AT ALL about modern technology.
Like, I didn't know about USB-C laptop docks? I can run two monitors, ethernet, sound and a bunch of USB ports out of a box plugged into ONE hole on my laptop? And I don't have to buy a dock specifically for my specific make and model of laptop? And this is real?
The flipside of your software being so light it can run on a toaster is that you'll spend years quite happily running it on a toaster and then have no idea what's going on in the world outside, and this is like when I borrowed someone's truck and went to start it and looked all around the steering wheel and they said what's up and I said where's the bloody choke on this thing
