OpenBSD on the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Nano

Ultra portable is a definition of form, not function. I want to run the same Qubes on my laptop as I run on my desktop.

This applies to normies too. I mean, it's nice to have (web/g/hot)mail, slack, skype, messenger, element, discord open in the background while surfing the web and I doubt that 16GB will be enough for long.

What if I want to run photoshop and illustrator at the same time? Heaven forbid, they rewrite those power tools to run on electron.

I can run all of those workloads in 16gb of ram without issue without a swap partition or pagefile enabled on my windows partition, the only thing that might struggle is multiple vms, but that isn’t a typical workload, which is why more than 16gb is so rarely seen.

Normies use their phones for that.
