I already blocked updates and managed to stop the update nagging after the AI features were announced, I'm not undoing that.

I really enjoy my E-ink-based reader (jailbroken Kindle Oasis).
It's pretty close to printed paper with the option to use a front-light.
It has about the same weight or lighter than a mass market paperback so I can hold it comfortably in one hand.
It has physical buttons to flip pages so I don't have to screw around with touch gestures and just leave my thumb on the next page button, more convenient than turning physical pages.
I can essentially take as many books as I want with me in one small package.
I can use the dictionary function to look up terms I'm not familiar with.
And there's a display for how many pages are left in the chapter so I know how long I have until I can take a break or go to sleep.

Sure, but then you have to explain that fact in case people don't know, which takes longer.

...to call it DeepSheikh.

I've seen a few Ukrainian FPV drones that can explode on command, presumably Russia has those too, but most of them probably still use the wire that completes a circuit when it's bent mechanism that isn't even connected to the flight hardware, so I doubt they could make them explode outright.
In comparison to Iran that used 3rd party software on 3rd party hardware that they would have had no reason or knowledge to inspect too deeply, a drone manufacturer is probably actively developing the firmware and someone would have noticed a commit that added a killswitch.

1999, some books:

2001 A Space Odyssey
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
Good Omens
It
Doom: Knee-Deep in the Dead
Neuromancer
Space Opera

The Lord of the Rings
Y2K : It's Already Too Late

I assumed that's just called 'typing on a keyboard'.
When you hone a skill to a good level of proficiency you usually develop muscle memory that offloads the conscious effort from your brain, like knowing where to place your fingers on a violin, balance on a bicycle without training wheels, determine the doneness of your steak without a thermometer.
From my experience it just something that develops on its own, you don't have to 'learn' anything. With that said, I've worked with a guy who would did typing speed challenges on his downtime, seemed pretty silly to me because I never felt typing speed was ever a significant bottleneck.

How many times have you been in an elevator and thought 'I wish there was a guy pulling a lever for me here"?

Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked, have been sacked.

So you're saying it's being misunderestimated?

I did as well, but I put the extra free day in the middle of the week.
It was much nicer to have that break and I was actually looking forward to find out what I missed.

What about side by side with a newfangled autocomplete?

I just decided to transition to an all-SSD NAS due to a bunch of considerations like portability, low power consumption, low noise, fast access speed, etc.
I just received my Terramaster F8 SSD a couple of days ago, and it's essentially an Intel-based computer with 8 M.2 slots in the size of a paperback book.
My understanding is some SATA 8TB SSDs were around $350 a couple of years ago, so hopefully prices will drop near those levels so I can grab a couple in the near future.

I use my home computer to occasionally play games but also for professional applications for 3D, video, and the like.
Most of that software is written to take advantage of CUDA, so while GPUs from AMD might have advantages like sharing system RAM with the CPU, or Intel's new GPUs might be competitively priced, I guess I'll have to stick with Nvidia for the foreseeable future.
