B&O

Maybe they mean Bang & Olufsen?

I thought we were talking exclusively about desktops. My bad.

But not all of the data shows desktops only. The ones I linked for Japan and Africa are for computer ownership in general.

That's reasonable and I agree with that. I'm just pointing out that religious clothing doesn't necessarily mean that that person will do what you fear. As Instigate points out, their words and actions are what matters and what we should be paying attention to.

You took the ACTION of putting on garb that says your religion is above everything else

Incorrect assumption. A dominant religion in any given society will influence cultural and societal norms. Sometimes, perhaps even more often than not, the reason for wearing religious clothing is social conformity. That doesn't necessarily mean that the wearer is a fundamentalist or even religious at all. There are even atheists who wear religious clothing just because the community they belong to excepts them to do so and they don't want to stand out (applies to all genders). And that's just one of several possible reasons other than the one you assumed to be the only possible explanation.

Not India, but somewhat relevant:

It's been confirmed that the Egyptian government recently carried out a targeted attack taking advantage of a 0-day on a presidential candidate's phone: https://arstechnica.com/security/2023/09/how-the-iphone-of-a-presidential-candidate-in-egypt-got-hacked-for-the-2nd-time (Edit: Link was pointing to second page of the article; changed to first page)

Yes. It's even extreme in some places. For example, more than half of Australian households reported in a 2022 survey that they never accessed the internet from a desktop PC that year (source; also, paywall warning). In Hungary, desktop ownership dropped from 47.5% in 2014 to 39.2% 2019. It's safe to assume the downwards trend has continued into 2023.

Japan dropped from 81.7% in 2013 to 69% in 2022 (this is for PC ownership in general and doesn't differentiate between desktops and laptops) and Germany dropped from 64.5% (desktops) in 2006 to 42.9% in 2022.

Even African countries, which had depressingly low computer ownership to begin with, have seen a stagnation at around 7.5% (yes, it's that low) between 2015 and 2019.

These are just a few examples, but you'll see a similar trend everywhere you look. Looking at these statistics reminds me of this Apple ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfR_Jj4grZE

Edit: WTH, Spain?

Well yes, any E-Ink device should be able to open a PDF, but PadMu gives you the ability to sync two devices so you can place them next to each other and display two pages at once. I think it has additional features specifically for working with sheet music, like an infra-red sensor for turning pages by waving your hands in front of the device. I know the Gvido has that (Edit: But the PadMu actually doesn't; it's all software enhancements and the dual display mode).

This review showcases the side-by-side display (double mode) feature at around 4:20. Can Onyx devices do that? I haven't checked, but my guess is no.

I know about the Boox devices, but the double screen is the main selling point for me. As far as I know, there's nothing similar offered by any other manufacturer out there. The PadMu comes close, but it's two separate devices (no hinge) that you have to pair via Bluetooth and place side by side, and the pairing process is slow and cumbersome.

Something like the Gvido E-Ink tablet for working with sheet music, but without all the proprietary bullshit and closed software.

SWAG is great for overwhelmed Nginx beginners. It comes preconfigured with reasonable defaults and also provides configs for a bunch of popular services: https://github.com/linuxserver/reverse-proxy-confs. Both Bitwarden and Vaultwarden are on there.

Note that this setup assumes that you will run your service (Bitwarden/Vaultwarden) in a Docker container. You can make SWAG work with something that's running directly on the host, but I'd recommend not starting with that until you've fooled around with this container setup a bit and gained a better understanding of how Nginx and reverse proxies in general work.
