Shots fired
I tried this but I always got some form of homesickness when using a laptop while I'm not at home which made me feel frustrated while using the laptop. Using a laptop always felt like having spotty internet: Just enough to get something done, but bad enough to get very frustrated while doing it. (Writing this makes me aware that it might be a very personal issue, lol)
However, I have to admit that I still own multiple laptops and I don't want to miss them.
I think it's very handy to have a laptop at hand. But I try to avoid using one as much as I can. The ones I have are very cheap Thinkpads that I bought used from eBay for less than €100. They can't do much but that fits exactly my use case for them: I am not even trying to do much with them, lol
Mhh, makes sense. Sounds like different lifestyles. But the question might be if your laptop is adapting to you or if you're adapting to your laptop. At least that's what I always wonder when I notice the impact some technologies have on me. Smartphones are the best example.
