Humans have evolved to be very energy-efficient. Humanoid Robots only come close when you completely ignore that aspect.

But what browser do we use then?

Shuffle uses a limited list that rarely gets updated, but not just the 100 most recent ones. You can force it refresh by turning off shuffle and force closing the app.

Yes and that's why you stick to popular FOSS stuff.

Because it's at the end of the update lifecycle. Android 13 is the last feature update so it'll maybe get a year of security updates. No one should ever use a phone that no longer gets those so they become cheap.

Last time I checked, the secret chats had some severe downsides that make them unusable as normal chats.

And if you want to bring open-source to the conversation: Signal is AGPL licensed, both the apps and backend. Not that it matters because of the E2E encryption.

Telegram doesn't have proper E2E encryption, so why are you using it for text messages at all? Asking this in privacy seems a bit weird to me.

60TB is a lot. My library almost fits on a 4TB drive, but I don't play modern COD or Battlefield. All the huge AAA games nowadays are huge in storage cost as well, so it's probably be possible to fill it all up.

Edit: Fixed 4GB typo

The people who make a /s like this necessary should be banned from the internet for a month at a time.

“The problem? It’s not clear he’s a hypocrite. If he’s not a bigot, why is he being outed?”

Because every issue has exactly two sides nowadays. And this guy uses twitter, so he should have noticed that by now.

I have DSlite on my home internet connection, which makes DDNS pretty much impossible. OP should check for that.

DDNS is only required for when you want to share it with other people. For accessing your own stuff from anywhere, there's tailscale. I set aside 30 minutes to read into it and set it up, but found myself with a working VPN between my phone and PC after just 3 minutes. And it's completely free for this use case.
