Stuff like a pretty case with slots for optical drives, a laptop with a shitton of ports and all-day battery life or anything else that seems to go against the trends.

This thread is for complaining about how you can't find it and (maybe) finding it thanks to someone else.

I haven't used a laptop for many years now, I mostly code from an android tablet, into a remote machine. You can find ones with great battery life and keyboards.

Oh wow, I'm always surprised to hear about the coding habits of prolific devs. So you dont use a local IDE? You run termux and the code in vi/emacs on server?

[-] dessalines@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago

Yep, I've coded remotely for many years now.

I used to use vim, but now helix, as my main rust and javascript/typescript IDE. So I mainly use termux+ssh .

Unfortunately for android dev you pretty much have to run android studio, so I use an android VNC client for that.
