Are you familiar qith Qubes? Because I suspect you'd like it. It is designed to offer seamless desktop integration while every
application runs inside an isolated container.

The drawback is hardware requerinments are very very bad.

They're taking the piss now with all this "containerisation" now, yes?
Surely its a bad joke.

Truthfully, I think that I was on to something. I'd quite forgotten about my post, but in the meantime, I spun up virtual machines based on personality dimensions.

1. Openness -- For Web research and RSS
2. Conscientiousness -- For email and LinkedIn
3. Extroversion -- For BBSing and other stuff that I don't do yet in this category

The real question is what OS is each VM running?
