I would love the child of a Surfacebook with a Framework laptop; or A bare keyboard attached to a screen, that I could plug my phone (possibly running Phosh) and use it as a hardware for a laptop experience

Lever that sticks out under the toekick on a vanity sink base cabinet, that opens the cabinet doors.

Basically so you can put a trash can under the sink and access it hands-free.

In other words, a cabinet that opens and closes with the same mechanism as a step-to-open trash can, but without the trash can taking up space in your small bathroom.

You’ve got some floss to toss, no need to touch your cabinet door handle just step down on the lever, toss the floss in the wastebasket, release foot and the door closes again.

Also a phone that takes landscape video while held vertically.

Two pairs of headphones that join into a single jack, for friends to listen to the same stuff.

iphone with headphone jack

Laptop whose power cable attaches magnetically

Computer keyboard composed of material designed to be pleasant to the touch.

Computer with a battery I can take out easily.

Computer with a body machined out of a single continuous block of aluminum

mp3 player that present a simple file system interface when plugged in via USB to a computer. Want an mp3 on that mp3 player? Just drag n drop. Or use cp command. Or mv. Or any of your favorite methods for moving files onto a mounted drive.

Laptop with an escape key.

Operating system that doesn’t connect to and play my most shameful porn on a random TV somewhere in the vicinity that may or may not include the house of my parents’ neighbors who apparently have an unspoken agreement with my parents to leech off their wifi.

A mac that runs on intel chips

A notifications stream where all of the notifications that appeared on my screen can be found, arranged in chronological order from based on when they appeared on my screen.

Okay now that I think about it, I just want Apple to undo most of their design decisions from the last 15 years.

For your 2 headphones, there are 3.5mm splitters, small devices where you plug in 2 headphones, and plug then into one walkman. Works with any brand of headphones :)

I'm looking for the Bluetooth version of that. Connect the btsplitter to the phone, and two headphones to the splitter. Edit: found easily.
