I love this. It kind of reminds me of the American Voices section in The Onion.

On-premesis file servers. That's it.
It's been three hours. He probably can't get a signal in the forever box.
Fairphone make headphones, slightly over your budget but worth a look. I've had mine for two months and they've been solid performers so far. More importantly, Fairphone places an emphasis on ethically-sourced and easily-repairable products with a long lifespan. Their new phone comes with at least eight years of support, for example.
Edit: alternatively, find a decent pair of dumb headphones with a detachable cables, either USB-C or 3.5mm, so you're less likely to damage the cable and, if you do, you don't need to replace the 'phones.
My new band name.
Loads of companies make the tower equipment, including Huawei, Cisco, Nokia... in those cases, size, cool running and low power draw aren't as important. Apple gives no shits about that part of the industry.
I'm not after a Steam Deck v2, but I'd love a v1.1 with Thunderbolt support. I'll buy a Steam Deck the moment it will happily play with an eGPU without a Dremel getting involved.
Isn't this a thing from Hitchhiker's Guide? IIRC there's a company that creates sentient, emotional AIs and installs them into things like doors and elevators to make them enjoy their jobs and make the appliances even more useful... but everyone just ends up hating them?
Seriously, go for it. In my old place, which was really well insulated, there were months where my energy costs were literally zero.
Not just loss. All of those glyphs are memes. Oh shit, waddup!
Your working day starts when you arrive at your contracted place of work, and are ready to start work. Not when you walk in the door, before having a cuppa or breakfast in the office kitchen. Not after your computer has booted up and is ready for you.
Kind of. The "ready to start work" bit is important. If your workplace has requirements that take extra time - such as a long walk from the front door to your desk, a computer that must go through a five-minute bootup process, a queue at the security gate, etc - those must be covered by the employer. But, yeah, arriving to work and having a panini in the kitchen isn't going to net you thirty minutes of flexi.
Imagine a parfait made of onions...
