I would highly recommend buying a Samsung S10E second hand off of ebay or something for $100 and using that. Once you've used Dex and Nebula with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard it will all click. It's incredible.

A year in half in jail without bail for a person who may be innocent? Yes.

How many January 6th rioters are still in jail? How many tea party members were unfairly audited by the IRS. It’s a lot more than you think.
