A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

You can get something like a NexDock that has all of that built in. Just 1 cable.

Maybe I'm missing something, but how is this more convenient than a laptop? It has the form factor of one, so you're already stuck carrying around what is basically a laptop. Wouldn't a super cheap Chromebook or similar be more convenient since it's a full desktop experience with all you'd expect from a desktop environment?

Anyway, working entirely on mobile is a thing these days, so if that works for you, keep doing what you're doing. If all you need is a bigger browser, I'd also recommend a tablet with a detachable keyboard. If you want to keep the experience consistent between devices, honestly I'd suggest an iPhone and iPad (as much as I avoid Apple myself).

The point is management. As in managing apps and data. On a single device.
