Since Fifths sound so great, why not just keep doing that? When we get to the next octave, then come back down. If we get to a place that's "pretty darn close" to another note, then stop. The Python explanation looks like:
f = 440
for i in range(13):
print(i,f)
f = f * 3/2
if f > 880: f=f/2.0
0 440
1 660.0
2 495.0
3 742.5
4 556.875

For simple prompts with little additional guidance, all the diffusion image generators I've seen/used will produce output about like what the author linked most of the time. There are always a few gems, and honing in via prompt engineering helps immensely.
My daily driver home machine is an i5-760 (Released in 2010!) with a GTX 1060, and it works GREAT. I play lots of RTS-like games in 4K via Steam (Stellaris, Civ, Timberborn, Factorio, Valheim, etc) and there's absolutely no problem whatsoever. The "pcmasterrace" mentality that makes you think nothing works without the latest & greatest CPUs & Graphics is just blatantly false.
I've always run Ubuntu on it as my daily driver, and I think that's part of my success. Windows machines of this age are seem to be more susceptible to long-term performance degradation.
As a comparison, I routinely use it side-by-side with much more recent machines (Intel 10th gens) provided by my workplace, and all the machines feel nearly identical in speed and performance to my 12-year old beater.
My only regret/hope is that my ancient motherboard doesn't seem to support more than 8G RAM, which is a bit annoying given how cheap memory is at this point.
Are you massuming a 3h40m trip for a specific time-based appointment? I think the use case of this kind of train is more similar to a flight with one or more nights at destination, so that the specific arrival time is not that important.

For example, I can use this as my terminal font on my Debian machine, and write code using it, but I can't post a screenshot of that terminal or code to Twitter.
SF Mono works great in any system (not just Fruit) but you'll need to use a few tools to dig down to get the OTF's out of the DMG.
Seems like "Planet Ix" (same pronunciation!) would have been a better name?
I've mostly replaced my online reading/discovery with HN, since I now have zero social media, and by reading HN and a couple of big-name online newspapers, I don't feel that I'm "missing out" on online news (a common feeling after deleting all social media).
This is what I've done with virtually every machine I've personally owned for oh... the last 20 years? Why is this not people's defacto way of setting up a new machine? It's obvious that preinstalls are full of bloatware and spyware. The only issue (primarily from the past) is that specialty hardware may not work without vendor-provided drivers. That's largely no longer true, especially for the big-name brands like Lenovo, Dell, Acer, ec.
