A massive effort is currently underway by undersea mining companies to dredge the life out of huge swaths of largely unexplored seabed, including Antarctic and Polar regions. It's the same insanity that allows industrial fishing fleets

Yep, a DisplayLink hub is the way. I've also been using one for 6 months and while it is perfectly stable, there are annoyances. For example certain protected video streams won't decode, and F.lux doesn't quite work on all mo
