The point of being a monarch is not being beholden to any rules.
Not really. Absolute monarchy is not the only kind of monarchy. There are also constitutional monarchies and various in-between. Even absolute monarchies usually are defined by some rules (e.g. succession of power in hereditary monarchies).
They probably mean Ukrainian citizens ditching a ‘democratically elected’ president who they didn’t like, because he tried to make Ukraine more Russian than European.
But that is still a democracy in work, when this is what most of citizens want. Especially when later democratic elections prove that (as it happened in Ukraine). Russia should not intervene, but they did and this destabilized the situation.
I used to use desktop computers both at work and at home (and laptops only when away), but that killed my back – too much sitting. Since then at home I use only laptop – I can lay down with that. I do hate touchpads too, so I don’t use that – just a regular mouse. Yes, one can connect a mouse to a laptop. ;-) I would prefer a full keyboard, but the one on laptop is not too bad.
Recently I have bought a powerful PC for gaming, but I only use it remotely, from my laptop (Steam streaming is great).
