Apparently there is an even larger orange that isn't ripe yet. I will follow up later with pictures when we pick that one.
The first picture doesn't really capture the scale of this orange, but how about the fact that it can wear an N95 mask.
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/

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.
