Using the charger on route will more than likely be determined by your bladder
This article claims that a 22 kW charger in a public place may provide 80 miles of range per hour of charging. A 5 minute restroom break would thus provide only 6.7 miles.
I washed dishes for two summers to pay for my first PC.
Someone may not be able to follow you in that if his or her parents and principal aren't willing to sign his or her work permit, which the law requires of all workers under 18 at least in my home state. (Source: Indiana DOL: Child Labor FAQs) The excuse my own parents gave for denying me a work permit was "Your education is your job. You need to concentrate on that." The aforementioned FAQ document also mentions that "schools have total discretion to refuse or revoke a work permit based on poor academics or attendance," and I doubt that most high school students have a 4.0 (A) average and perfect attendance for the entire preceding school year.
In addition, someone may not be able to follow you in that if all restaurants within walking distance have a blanket policy not to offer jobs to minors under 16 because all available positions have at least one duty that federal and/or state labor laws prohibit for children under 16. (Source: Indiana DOL: Prohibited and Hazardous Occupations for Minors) For example, a fast food restaurant may give the duty you mentioned (washing trays) to someone who also has the duty of cooking, and the law requires those who cook to be 16.
When I was in college, my parents made 13 trips a year that involved me. Twelve were to college, one at the beginning and end of each of 6 half trimesters, and one was to an amusement park. To amortize the twelve across the general population, one might take into account the number of children per family, the fraction of children who attend college, how many years, how far away, etc.
But if you'd just stay for lunch, you can probably top off your EV enough to make it back without issue.
True, the process to move the subset of my belongings that I used during both weeks when classes were in session and weeks when they weren't took maybe a half hour. And perhaps colleges have installed EV chargers near each residence hall since I attended.
Have you checked that there are no chargers on route or just assuming none because you didn't see any?
Using what search engine do road-tripping EV users typically search for chargers before a trip?

And how long it takes to charge once the vehicle has stopped. How many miles' worth of charge can an EV draw in just the time it takes to number 1? If a pee break charges the battery from (say) 50% to 55%, that might not be enough.
Back up automatically to as many cloud providers as you can afford
Which isn't many if you have a lot of GB of data to back up, such as video or lossless audio, and your home ISP doesn't provide a lot of GB/mo. (Satellite ISPs tend to limit data, and cellular ISPs tend to limit hotspot data.) Or if you don't want yet another utility dipping into your checking account via your debit card every month.
I looked for Time Machine equivalents on GNU/Linux, and Cronopete at least appears to have been worked on in the past year.
You appear to claim that only a "naive child" would believe that extension suggestion in Firefox, which is distributed as free software, does not exfiltrate your habits. Of the following scenarios, which are you claiming is the case?
A. That the published source code of Firefox contains code to exfiltrates your habits B. That the executable contains code to exfiltrate your habits not present in the published source code

Arguably few consumers need to be able to travel more than 300 miles in a given day
I've encountered a couple of these use cases in my life:
Trips to a theme park
A 180-mile (290 km) drive to an amusement park without a charger (or with a usurious parking surcharge to use the charger) and a 180-mile drive back already exceed 300 miles (480 km).
Trips to and from college
A college student lives on campus during his third and fourth years of a bachelor's degree, after having completed the first two at a community college. Parents are picking the student up at the start of vacation week and dropping him or her off before classes begin again, with some fraction of the student's possessions (wardrobe, computer, game console, TV, etc.) being moved for the duration. This move doesn't last nearly long enough for a charge.
Or is there a practical solar charger for such trips?
I see your point about prefetching most of your environment to disk cache. That's why Microsoft added the "SuperFetch" feature to Windows over a decade ago and Canonical added "ureadahead" to Ubuntu. But there are three problems:
First, many tablet computers and compact laptops lack slots for 32 GB of RAM. Second, even on those machines that can take 32 GB, loading 32 GB when booting or when waking from hibernation takes a while before the prefetch stops being a source of read latency. Third, when a file is written and flushed, the application that you are using still needs to wait for the data to be written to spinning rust in case the power fails or the kernel panics. That adds several milliseconds of latency.
Who the hell cares? Replace it and restore your data.
The data on a failing drive might be a newer version than the most recent weekly backup. I see value in backing up the newer version elsewhere as the first part of replacing the drive. But SSD failure modes allegedly make this newer version inaccessible sooner than HDD failure modes.
had a 2gb memory card once. A Day One fault of one 512 mb block dead. Windows could not recognise this fault nor fix it. Instead writing to the card had corruption (obviously) when the faulty block was engaged.
Then Microsoft messed up by not offering a "try writing to all unallocated clusters" mode in the surface scan in chkdsk.

Also the fact that city zoning codes often prohibit productive gardening, as in the case when Oak Park threatened Julie Bass with jail time for growing a victory garden. What Internet connection are farmers supposed to use to upload large files to their crop advisor?
I assume that LostMyBeaver was assuming that taxing authorities would use hiring a CDN to prove "nexus" for taxation.
Servers: could be multithreaded, but in practice many loads are not.
At least for web servers, PHP runs in a multiprocess model, and the PostgreSQL or MariaDB server runs in a separate process.
Browsers: JavaScript.
Script is multithreaded by operating in multiple documents, and even script within one document is multithreaded through Web Workers.
I sometimes wonder when the MacBook Wheel will actually become a reality.
Apple released it in April 2010 under the name iPad (1st generation). This device, in essence a 9.7" iPod, turned out not to be an April Fools joke.
Say you're 14, and you have [no] computer.

I don't think your question is realistic. It's not 1970. They likely didn't lack access, they lacked interest.
Say you're 14, and you have a hand-me-down iPhone, a game console, and interest in learning how to program a computer. What's your next step?

You always have the option of renting a gasoline car for long trips
Renting a car can prove cost prohibitive for liability reasons before you turn 25 or if you're crossing state or provincial lines.
If the SSD is replaceable then you should simply just use your backup
How many days old is your backup?
restore to a new drive
How many days of shipping away is the new drive?
What, you don't have at least 32GB of RAM?

I doubt that most home PC users have both the case space and the cash for a RAID. A user of a mainstream laptop sure doesn't.
Then read it as "Samsung would not ship the replacement until it received the returned unit." This still implies a week's downtime.
