I've been doing the same thing, but as I work with Docker often I had to waste a bunch of time compiling a custom kernel[0], which I ended up trashing after about a week because who cares? Instead, I just have my Chromebook and a VPC on Google Cloud that I SSH into for work. Theoretically I wouldn't be able to work if I didn't have internet access, but I've never actually run into that problem. I still have dev mode off, but I don't think turning it on is a huge risk. Steam games though? I didn't know you could do that. [0]: https://gist.github.com/christianbundy/ba62890a7c2f8128bcbb https://gist.github.com/christianbundy/ba62890a7c2f8128bcbb

Awesome link, thanks! Docker is actually the one thing I was never able to get working properly in my chroot! Re: Steam games, yup it's powerful enough to run most indie games that support linux (which is an increasing number, recently). The biggest constraints are GPU and disk space. I've had a few good runs of FTL (Faster than Light) on long-haul flights. You just gotta make sure you keep an eye on the battery, since if it dies you accidentally wipe the system :/
