I needed a new laptop for quite some time as the current one is almost 10 years old. I have been using a 2012 Thinkpad T530 which is very capable and built like a tank. It has survived two drops from 3-4 feets with only minor damage. Unfortunately it weighs like a tank too. The speakers on it were terrible and I had to constantly look for headphones every time I had to attend a meeting.

Screen is a program that runs in terminal and allows you to create multiple terminals with one ssh login. It runs in background so that you can attach to the same session if ssh disconnects. Its particularly useful when you are using mobile data or have to leave some process running in foreground.
