I’m a programmer and amateur radio operator.
Artemis Fowl (Book 1) (he’s the good guy in the following books)
Can I take one end of a cable with me?
What’s the max power I can get from the sockets?
Where does the eject button dump people and can it be set to dump things other than people as well?
Does time continue inside the pocket dimension if no one is inside?
What’s the internal temperature/humidity? Is it regulated?
Can I choose what I take with me, or is it just everything im wearing/carrying?
Questions aside, I would fill it with all sorts of stuff that I might need at some point, but leave enough space for a bed and a desk.
A small, cheap holographic projector (as in projects a glowing volumetric image into the air that I can wave my hand through). It would probably work using femtosecond lasers, but making the optics small and cheap would be difficult.
Not a classic book, but Artemis Fowl. Disney managed to confuse fans of the books and newcomers to the series alike by adding a McGuffin that was unnecessary, bringing the antagonist from the second book into the movie on the first book, and mangling the relations between the two main protagonists beyond recognition.
You can do this in VLC, though it’s not very practical. VLC’s equalizer has a preamp slider, it’s just not great if you want to change it all the time.
