I use a Bigme Hibreak Pro eink phone, nix-on-droid/ssh to home server over tailscale, and a foldable keyboard, to have my coding setup with me and not be tied to where I can carry a laptop.
For foldable keyboards, if they are flimsy or stable matters.
Agreed. NixOS + Tailscale is 99% there for me. Using Claude Code to deal with whatever other package I need built with nix while I'm working on $day_job things helps get me to a fully working system. Besides the fact that running containers via podman or docker (your choice) is super easy via a NixOS config.
Combine that with deploy-rs or similar and you have a very very stable way to deploy software with solid rollback support and easy to debug config issues (it's just files in the ./result symlink!)
Ultimately I can memorise 12 words representing my private key. And when the dictatorship finally ends, or I manage to flee, no government can ever freeze my money.
No tax man, no dictator, and no other thief can distinguish someone who memorised 12 words from someone who didn't.
You might find it ever increasingly difficult to change bitcoins to real money if a country -- or multiple -- is against it. No such thing happens currently but there are constant efforts to bring KYC and so forth to exchanges.

GVIDO used to make them, but it looks like they shutdown production. According to the redditor there are still some devices available, but they are hard to find. Might not be worth getting one if they are somehow tied to GVIDO's backend servers...
Hi! I wonder about anyones experience doing full- or part-time van-life, with an electric van (idea sparked by seeing the Tesla car on YouTube) in Europe?
Been researching it for a while now. It isn't feasible yet. The best output I've seen is a thousand pounds of hauling on an electric truck. Which is about 200 pounds less than the most efficient truck camper I can find. Thats enough data to extrapolate to most forms of living such as this.
