Shuffling and instrumental music are bad; people talking and instrumental music are worse.

Did you mean 'people talking and vocal music are worse'?

white noise.

I have an app for that. Phone batteries are a precious resource, so maybe I should look for some white-noise MP3s for the laptop.

Anker (www.ianker.com) or other phone battery block for effectively endless phone battery (just really long between needing charge). I have a 12000mAh charger that I find difficult to beat in wake-vs-sleep time. (if it charges when I sleep, it usually is full by when I wake) for comparison your phone battery is probably between 3000mAh and 5000mAh. http://www.gsmarena.com/ to check the size of your native battery.
