I am a senior software developer and on call pretty much always (1st line half the day, 2nd line half the day, it’s OK, emergencies are very rare, months pass between two). Before this bag, as recently as a year ago, I needed to carry a laptop backpack with my regular 14″ inside everywhere. But now, I can just take this baby. Also? Since it’s only 9″ high I can stand it up under a plane seat, lengthwise, so it is taking practically no space. A laptop backpack will steal invaluable space where your legs would go.

Home of the Unicorgis: https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/Squidbrains the patches specifically are https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/570922520/banjo-and-luna-the-unicorgi-iron-on
The first real performant 7″ notebook (not Atom but real Intel Core CPU, non-eMMC storage but a real SSD and NVMe at that), what we wanted since the Toshiba Libretto, the Sony Vaio P, oh so many years: https://www.geekbuying.com/item/One-Netbook-One-Mix-2S-Yoga-Pocket-Laptop-M3-8100Y-8GB-256GB-Silver-406887.html
eReader/tablet/monitor: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/not-ereader-first-e-ink-mobile-phone-monitor/x/5633299#/ yeah it has its quirks but it _works_. Hot
. I keep an eReader anyways to read, the previous one was an only slightly smaller Aura One and if I could get one that doubles as an emergency monitor, that’s a big win in my books.Waterbottle: https://www.rubbermaid.com/en-US/design-series-bottles yeah, nothing special.
Lächen Mini Irrigator: Google for aliexpress 33018370414, won’t link it because of spam filters. Not only it is the smallest portable oral irrigator (waterpik) but it stores the nozzle inside.
Travel Washlet: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005FDJ8SM totally SFW video on how to use it: it’s basically portable civilization.
Nuts holder: I am reasonably sure it’s https://www.uline.ca/Product/Detail/S-18215/Tubes/Clear-Retail-Tubes-1-1-2-x-6 and I just found it https://www.dancopackagingproducts.com/our_products/prod_161.html for smaller quantities. I’ll actually get a spare or five
Micro-Mini HDMI cable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01NC2X1DM/ it’s _hard_ to find a cable of this kind this tiny.
Stand: https://www.niteize.com/product/QuikStand.asp it does hold the tablet up, barely so, but it does.
DM-1 wallet: https://decadentminimalist.com/ you can’t find a smaller, lighterweight card wallet.
Phone to taste. The bag can hold any monster of a phone.
When flying I also add: Glocalme U2 https://www.glocalme.com/CA/en-US/cloudsim/u2 international mifi with pretty decent rates but also the possibility to just slot a local SIM. Did you know giffgaff UK sends a SIM anywhere for free and allows using their packages EU wide with really nice rates? It’s literally half the price of a T-Mobile USA International Pass.
Dual USB Output Super Slim Power Bank Ultra Thin, Attom Tech 3000mAh https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07JZCZSH9 it’s enough to give a phone or the mifi a little bit of extra time.. It’s ridiculous from something this tiny but it actually can (slow) charge _both_ at the same time.
There are some small extras in the last photo:
Olight UC Magnetic USB Charger https://olightworld.com/olight-uc-magnetic-usb-charger to charge the AA battery in the washlet. Again, it’s neigh impossible to find a smaller battery charger.
Mu One https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N1PK1RP/ impossibly thin 45W USB C charger.
Elecom WRH-583BK2-S travel router. https://www.ebay.com/itm//183769814553 dual RJ45, dual band, micro USB powered.
