My recent findings is that it's better to not take any notes at all. Instead of adding some item to your todo list, do it immediately and don't send it off like some nasty surprise to your future self. The smaller my notes.txt the less complications I have to worry about and I can go on living a happy and fulfilled life.

Who wants to be patching the OS? Who wants to be dealing with package vulnerabilities?

Choose OpenBSD (and don't install stupid stuff like bash) and you won't have to deal with any of that.

I must strongly agree with this one. Just switched from DigitalOcean to Vultr myself. Vultr is the only decent one I'm aware of who'll let me run OpenBSD. No other OS is good enough for me. Strongest security in the world, and no need to update as frequently as with other OSes or distros.

Choose OpenBSD for your Unix needs. OpenBSD -- the world's simplest and most secure Unix-like OS. Creator of the world's most used SSH implementation OpenSSH, the world's most elegant firewall PF, the world's most elegant mail server OpenSMTPD, the OpenSSL rewrite LibreSSL, and the NTP rewrite OpenNTPD. OpenBSD -- the cleanest kernel, the cleanest userland and the cleanest configuration syntax.

OpenBSD is simply a lot better designed than Linux, free from fancy bells and whistles. As the the world's simplest and most secure Unix-like OS, any mobile OS choosing it over Linux would have a significant advantage.

Android has bits and pieces of it, but not nearly enough.

libuinet is a library version of FreeBSD's TCP stack. I guess there's a theme here.

That is excellent, considering FreeBSD's TCP stack is supposed to be faster and better designed than that of Linux.

Speaking about new features -- what I'd like to see is the ability to remove items from my public profile / activities list. Often I make mistakes. Often I do stuff I don't want the public to see, and I'd rather not have to email GitHub support asking them to remove them manually all the time.

There's also Donepezil, a drug similar to the one from the movie Limitless (2011).

    - Donepezil is used to improve memory function in Alzheimer’s patients
    - Children learn skills quickly as their brains go through 'critical periods’
    - Researchers found donepezil can revert adult brains to these periods
    - It increases the 'elasticity' of the brain making it capable of learning rapidly
    - Researchers rewired a visually impaired patient’s brain to process images
    - The drug works by boosting chemicals in the brain that reduce with age
