   @shapr I have started using what I call the Nunchuck computer
   
   It's a tablet running a full linux with QoL tools to let it act like a tablet, and then it can be plugged into a dock (or just keyboard) to be a full sized laptop. And then I can stream a larger desktop to get more power, or offload to my servers for better compute or storage.
   
   I really wish that the main device was a phone with an optional larger screen though.
   
   
   For my wife we are placing Thinkcentres around the house, and then getting a nice portable screen, a small cluster of smart speakers, and a portable keyboard/mouse, making a lapdesk which is a full workstation, but plugs into compute that lives on places with good seating in our house, and uses Mycroft for voice control the rest of the time. The homedir on the users is stored on an NFS, so her individual data is automatically backed up, and the different devices have the same data.
   
   Reimagining computing is so necessary!

     I want my phone to work like Bluetooth headphones, but for my real actual computer.
     I want my phone to be no more than a graphical display of my own data being processed on my own hardware.
