Why do you expect the landlords to be smarter than anyone else? When things are bad for the landlord things become bad for the tenants, it is only natural, look up the situation of the landlord before you rent if you want to avoid this.
It was in response to the implication that it would be nice if all the new companies that big businesses acquire have everything (like ipv6) "ready to go" upon acquisition.
I was making a "joke" that it's as likely as us getting to another planet and it being already setup to be habitable by humans.
This is just about as close to how I handle most note taking currently.
You can't beat computers for quick searching and Onenote is both "GUI" enough to be friendly to people I have to share with and also does all those other things you mention. (Plus a lot of other cool stuff.)
I also use Sublime/vim in a similar way you mention, although I tend to use that as "RAM" in the sense that I don't save my snippets -- if they're not important enough to document elsewhere then if something really bad were to happen where (at least in Sublime) if a non-saved tab didn't show up at start automatically "oh well". (I've never had that happen though.)
Where I'm failing lately is any kind of physical pen/paper note taking since just the feel of that is great so I've added that into my TODO's of 2017. :)
It's a roll-your-own solution, but tt-rss has been an exceedingly great replacement for Reader when it closed down. (And as long as RSS exists, I never have to worry about my service going away.)
Computing expands, then it contracts, then it expands, then it contracts.
For every pro in any solution there's usually a similarly weighted con, both of which need to be balanced against the users technical ability, requirements, "infrastructure", etc.
There's no such thing as a silver bullet, but it's what makes the game fun.
