Wires are life.
Learn to manage (route, store, wind, respect bend radius, etc) cables and reliability will be your reward.
Comment on Having to manage cables is a very 80s thing that we still have to do in 2025.

I hate devices that I can’t plug in and leave plugged in. Nothing but useless trash that I know will ultimately fail and need to be replaced, instead of easily repairing with a new pile of copper strands.
Cables or bust. I don’t even use wifi as my main Internet. Much prefer wired Ethernet for stability and extra security.

I’d like to imagine that you’ve found an ethernet cable that mimics the long coiled phone cords of the '80s and '90s so that you can walk around the house with your desktop PC chatting with your girlfriends all evening after school.

I wish lol, I loved hanging the receiver from the cable to untangle this mess

I don’t know, man, walking around with a whole desktop PC, with monitors, keyboard and mouse? that does not seem to be easy. but sure it adds to the fun factor of imagining it with the curly cable!
