I never understood these things until I went back to university. Now I totally understand having my life on my laptop and just being able to sit down and plug in for a gaming experience.
I don’t like using my desktop that much anymore because I spend so much time on my laptop, and syncing files over nextcloud is meh.
Stg some colleges regressed in their network. I transferred colleges and at my old college, I occasionally struggled to stream steam games from my desktop in my dorm. The university I graduated from last had proper gigabit. I knew some people form my old college and it somehow got worse.
It’s like a few mb best case scenario. Most people were getting really bad dsl speeds. For me, my game streaming was horribly compressed and almost unplayable.

The smart thing is to build a powerful desktop, then just use thin clients and tailscale to remote into it.
I mean sure, but I’m not always connected and my cell plan has a limit.
I mean if you routinely and for long periods work in areas with no WiFi, that could be a problem.

You don’t need a fast connection…

Edit: this was 2023/4
OCuLink is kinda rad, I wish it were more widely used. (Maybe I’m just looking at motherboards from the wrong generation.)
It looks like the top of a barcode scanner, or 3/4 of a spaceship.
