Hey guys, just a little update: this still hasn't changed.

Fast Factoring Integers by SVP Algorithms: “This Destroys the RSA Cryptosystem.” [pdf] - https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/232.pdf

Maybe I should wait buying that new Thinkpad? Here's an interesting take on a more sustainable laptop: https://frame.work/blog/introducing-the-framework-laptop

This sounds ingenious! The great bubble barrier, keeping plastic out of the ocean:
