The only reason you need a cold storage device is so you don't have to trust what your computer displays on it's screen.

Any device without a screen forces you to trust the display of an internet connected device.

The first reason you need a cold storage device is because you want a private key generator that you can trust. Second reason is because you need something to get bitcoin off the exchanges. How do we achieve this easily for the masses?

Storing your own Bitcoin keys isn't easy, but it's worth it.

You don't need private key generator to trust😉.

I trusted my dice (256 times).

Then I crunched numbers using pen and paper.

Dice are a trusted seed generator.

Great, let’s see how many want to spend time on this.

It's funny how much effort this is spending on manual effort to conceal the seed, and then just tells you to type it in a console that is saved by default in ~/.history ...

Technically not true if the screen is on a device not connected to the internet.

If you have an airgapped computer, then you don't *need* a secondary cold storage device.
