A SBC with SATA ports, to use as a Plex server. I've only ever found one (the Zimaboard), but it's a bit pricey for something that I'd still have to find some way to house with an external HDD.

Shoes with build in wifi

the battery thing is real. I basically can not find a laptop with weak/low power cpu and igpu, but a huge battery. I get that we can not do more than 99whr, but for weak stuff, I can not find anything above 50 practically.

A cheap ARM laptop.
Pinebooks have been sold out for ages, and then it’s a massive leap up to MNT Reform or Copilot+.
I just started watching eBay for used Pinebooks, but nothing has popped yet.

There are plenty of portable second screens for laptops now. But it seems weird you can't just hardwire a second laptop without having to resort to internet based screen sharing solutions.

A way to easily remove dust and debris without busting open the tower

An drone that act as an ambrella

An app like Shazam but that shows me : this is the song you played and these are the songs it reminds you of because the melody is from here and the vocals melody is from here etc. I am mad that every other song reminds me of another but I cannot check which one it is.

if you're saying what i think you're saying you may be interested in something like a nexdock
Basically a laptop with no internals that acts as an external monitor, battery bank and peripherals for another device

Couldn't you just attach an umbrella to a drone?
-
well, if you carry around a bag anyways a battery bank could alleviate that

Something that’ll let me plug a raspberry pi’s micro hdmi output into either: the usb-c input OR mini hdmi input on an (already-powered) external monitor. If anyone has success stories, I’d appreciate it.

This one I just found last week. I’ve been trying to get my tv on my vpn without having to flash my router with openwrt. It’s a samsung running tizen so not customizable unlike an android tv. I discovered the GL.Inet Mango and Shadow mini routers that come with openwrt pre-installed. Now I have my tv and older devices that don’t support my vpn client connected to it. I can also take it along with me when traveling go use when on hotel or public wifi.

yes, but that is a separate investment

some cheap all-in-ones i've worked on have hdmi in and out.
one of 'em i have here is an old atom celeron dell aio with 1600x900 native screen but on its hdmi input, it'll run at 1920x1080. and yea, running that instead of its true native res sucks about as bad as you think it would--but it is still 'usable'. the real sucky bit, though, is the pc has to be on in order to switch it to hdmi in.

A low power 17 inch or larger laptop in a sub $1K price point. I have big hands and I use the fuck out of numpad, but i really dont need a gaming GPU or a higher end cpu in a laptop.
