The first picture doesn't really capture the scale of this orange, but how about the fact that it can wear an N95 mask.
@yaelwrites Time to follow more accounts!
Oh also I forgot to mention what opensnitch was. It's similar to Little Snitch on Macs, but for Linux. It tracks outgoing network connections and throws up prompts so you can allow/deny them. https://github.com/evilsocket/opensnitch/

@luis_de_sousa @purism We have a number of folks who use their Librem 5 with a simple USB-C dock and monitor/keyboard/mouse. If you work from a desk for the most part it would probably be the most convenient approach. I just do a lot of work from my couch so a laptop form-factor is more convenient for me.
It turns out that software is "curl | sh" all the way down: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/03/more-top-tier-companies-targeted-by-new-type-of-potentially-serious-attack/
3. I work from home, but if I commuted (and the Librem 5 could replace my work laptop) I wouldn't need to commute w/ a laptop *or* a dock. Hubs and laptop docks are cheap enough I could leave one at home and one at work. Any work in transit I could handle directly from the phone.
2. Keeping a laptop w/ you at all times when traveling is a pain. It's easy to keep a phone w/ you. When I travel again, I can safely leave my laptop dock behind in a hotel room. If someone steals it while it's unattended I'm also out much less money than with a laptop.
1. Having not just all your data with you on a single device, but having *running apps* using that data that can migrate to and from larger screens. Often I dock so I can expand an app I'm already using right then to the larger screen. Handy for multi-tab web research and email.
Maybe it's because I recently read Mrs. Dalloway and by comparison Woolf handled the same approach (stream of consciousness inside various characters' minds during a single day) masterfully. By comparison Ulysses is a self-indulgent slog in need of an editor.
