I had the LG Genesis that was the spiritual successor to the enV. Loved the form factor but the battery life was abysmal at like 2 hours of use. Yay Android 2.2 lol.

Gemini PDA
Is that the one from PlanetCom? I've been looking at both their Gemini and Cosmo Communicator. Both were out of stock when I ended up going with the Minimal.
I've been rocking a Minimal Phone for about 6 or 7 months now, and man am I excited to have options for QWERTY phones again.
just plain boredom with glass slabs
This. So much this. They're all boring, too tall, and too skinny with about as much personality as a used up dryer sheet. It's like they're designed solely for scrolling an endless feed of mind-numbing slop. I remember being able to actually do things on my older smartphones (RDP, SSH, editing documents/spreadsheets, etc). You can still do those things now, but you basically have to break out a bluetooth keyboard to do anything more than the most basic things and it feels like trying to look at a panorama through a keyhole.

Edit: Oh, goddamnit. My dyslexic ass read that as Michael Langdon. I'm gonna leave this up for a laugh at my expense but disregard.
the segment has been shared widely on social media
Not widely enough.

Even if they do eventually air it, it would be enlightening to play "spot the difference" between what they didn't want to air and what they finally do. My guess would be CBS doing something like sed s/Trump/Biden/g to the script.

I've used MaryTTS semi-recently. It's older but works well enough for my cases. I have it running on a server (locally) and my endpoints make a call to it and playback the returned audio file.
On Android, I use SherpaTTS which has good voices, but I'm not aware of a desktop/Linux option. It mentions using voices from Coqui which you linked, so I would guess that would be the way to go for desktop.
Not sure if ADHD specific or a symptom of being "on the spectrum" or a bit of both (have never been diagnosed either way but show all the signs), but I have a very low capacity "social battery" and am very sensitive to noise. The end result is I crave (relative) solitude and quiet or else I'm useless at getting anything done.
An unmanaged switch is just a single plane where all ports are equal. All ports share OSI layers 1 and 2. Anything you plug into port 24 can always reach anything you have plugged into port 3.
Managed switches (also sometimes known as "smart" switches) provide additional features on top of that. The most useful is VLANs (virtual LANs) which let you segregate traffic. Two ports on different VLANs share the same physical layer (layer 1) but are separated at the data link layer (layer 2). This lets you create up to 4096 different networks on the same switch; each network is isolated from the other. If port 24 and port 3 are on different VLANs, then they will not be able to communicate unless they can reach a common router at layer 3.
Additionally, managed switches let you do things like disable/enable ports (for security, power savings, etc), enable port mirroring, and combine multiple ports into an aggregation group (e.g. bond four 1 Gb links into one 4 Gb link).
The available features on a managed/smart switch vary by manufacturer and, often, by the license level (sadly common in enterprise gear). VLANs, port control, mirroring, and LAGs are usually common "baseline" features, though.
Which begs the question why not magnets at the top of the building to help pull the electricity up?
I'm really starting to feel like Android 11 is the "Windows 7" of Android.
