I typed the URL that was literally printed in the packaging of a [new] Logitech mouse, and the page didn’t exist! Like, how?!‽
PuTTY: “unexpectedly” disconnected.
Satisfactory.
The good news is that everyone is going to be experiencing that for the first time again in about a week’s time!

Wikipedia can also be useful to find software - e.g.:
or look at the Wikipedia page for whatever you want to replace and see if it’s in a category such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Audio_editing_software_for_Linux
You can even do this with things that aren’t software, e.g. Homebase -> UK home improvement stores -> Screwfix.
It might be a trope by now, but when you mention “rich tourists and digital nomads”… have you read For The Win?
When Cory Doctorow considers this question, … His character, an archetype of the subcultures you mention, voiced by the most cyberpunk author you ever read, chooses a cargo ship.
Looks like the main options are the things you’ve already ruled-out:
Maybe you can find a “tall ship” that’s big enough to have passive passengers (example), or pay the small boat to bring a higher ratio of paid crew to let the passengers sleep.
“Cannot contain your email address” - damn right it can’t contain my email address in 20 characters!

Literally a supreme court decision - https://www.nytimes.com/2005/10/06/international/middleeast/israel-bans-use-of-palestinian-civilians-as-human.html (yes it was official policy and the idf appealed being told to stop)
City builders, transport games, and factory games are basically “System Design” work already - you could probably disguise a CPU or circuit board design problem as an OpenTTD or Prison Architect or Shapez scenario, and get gamers to design boards for you.
That was so insane - “we need a unique number, let’s just use the MAC” - it was like people didn’t even think through any of the implications when making ipv6 address schemes.
Similar with the address proposals that ignored the need to minimise the size of core internet routing tables.
