This kind of laptop bag is understated and practical, and it's fine if you're only carrying a laptop. But once you add things like a charger, cables, or a mouse, the lack of compartments becomes a real issue. Everything gets jumbled together, which not only makes it messy but also risks scratching your laptop. The practicality takes a hit.

OP uses a laptop sleeve[0] so scratching isn't a worry.

Some people are "pocket for everything" organizers and some just aren't. I throw it all together anyway, and at least this has a modicum of stealth and misdirection. Nice to have extra space to chuck in a few things, too.

For a hacker community (original definition) many seem to dislike actual hacks...
