alt Hacker NewsDo... people drag a full iMac to a public workspace like that? I feel like this would be ridiculed since even most co-working spaces provide monitor hookups. But if I saw you order a single coffee at a tiny shop and are set-up with an all-in-one desktop then me and everyone else will be giving you a side-eye
Slightly less worse would be one of those fold-out multi-monitor attachments that I've never seen in the wild either

I feel comfortable asserting most freelance professionals have outgrown a fear of "side-eye".

I saw a guy with a Commodore PET at a coffee shop in Toronto once.
And more than once, I've been that guy with a TRS-80 at a Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf shop in Las Vegas.
A TV reporter who stopped in for coffee seemed interested in what I was doing, until he saw that I was just playing Monopoly.
definitely saw a few in starbucks around the world. no one cares
People still occasionally wear Vision Pros in public, so I don't think the normal social etiquette applies here.
That said, truly not caring what strangers at a coffee shop think about you is probably a great step toward a great life.
