maybe an android phone with usb-c to hdmi? would be very easy to use for non techie family members too.

i root with magisk and use afwall and adaway to block stuff. maybe not the most secure but it's pretty private, at least i know there's no weird network connection happening without me knowing.

it all depends on your threat model, but IMO your idea is decent. personally i'd rather have another lineageos phone for calls, since the iPhone's phone app sucks (no call recording) and it being connected to the internet means it can be tracked by apple. also it's impossible to install any apps on iOS without an apple account. (unless you jailbreak, which is a pretty different story. your iphone 7 can be jailbroken with checkra1n which is good tho)

maybe linus torvalds vs linus tech tips

the iphone 4s at that time was pretty good tbh except for that shitty glass cover (which was extremely easy to replace unlike recent iphones), galaxy s2 was awesome tho

phones were fun and good until about 2015, then only went worse since. SD808 happened and phones got extremely hot and bulky. also glass back and headphone jack, removable batteries..

do people really care much about the thickness? i'd rather have larger battery or smaller size.

reinstall lineageos, if it has gapps i consider it compromised

i just use a membrane keyboard, it's a pretty good one from 1998 i got from the garbage can in pristine condition. ("sejin skr-2233e") i don't think i can ever get something similar to this, so i'm seeking replacements.

That's a very nice machine. How's the screen nowadays? The one on my T60 is extremely dim and yellowed, seems like your's is still pretty good?

copyparty is extremely simple to run, no need for docker. just a single python file

on some places everyone including the active seeders have utorrent 2.2.1 (or something similar) so you'll be missing out sadly.

not really, i believe syncthing-fork existed even back when official syncthing supported android.
