Not sure what sort of length on play you're looking for but wingspan and terraforming Mars are both really good board games that have good-to-quite-good mobile versions.

I have found synching to be very useful for making copies of files across devices. I have it setup to mirror photos from my phone, photos from my wife's phone, and various other things (to-do lists for todo.txt, notes and shopping lists for obsidian... stuff like that) back to my desktop and my NAS. You can set it to do one-way sync (which is more like a backup) or two way sync (where changes anywhere are propagated to everywhere else).

As others have said, it's not really a true backup solution, but handy to have immediately accessible copies of what's on your phone in case of phone loss or damage.

For photo viewing and sharing, I am more or less pointing the photo sharing app on my NAS to the photos I sync from phone. They all get dropped into an "inbox" when first synced and then can be organized from there.

You may also want an actual backup solution. There are quite a few and that's a different topic. The reason I bring it up, though, is that simply mirroring what's currently on device is not considered a real backup by most people, and for good reason.

Been using tuta with like 3-4 domains for years. It works fine.

Getting your own domain so you can keep an email address and move providers is the actual right move. Sounds like that's what you're going to do.

This probably factors into the resurgence of vinyl.

Speaking as someone who has gone through several of them from several brands... All the robot vacuums are scams anyway.

The batteries wear out quickly. They are consumable parts not covered by warranty.

The brushes wear out quickly. Also consumable parts not covered by warranty.

The filters eventually become clogged and render the device unusable without replacement. Also consumable and not covered by warranty.

And honestly I would be willing to put up with all of the above if they did a good job vacuuming, but they don't and won't.

While I agree with your sentiment.... millionaires and billionaires should not be lumped together. This conflation is actually a super useful tool for the billionaires (and mega millionaires) to use when convincing the middle and lower economic classes to vote in their favor.

Realistically, millionaire today basically just means homeowner. As ridiculous as it sounds, a million dollars is not an "enormous" sum of money in today's world.

Billionaire is something different entirely.

Better to say "super wealthy" or something like that.

You could try an hdmi audio extractor and pipe that into a raspberry pi with the appropriate hat and run a real-time volume normalization dsp then run from the pi to your sound system or BACK into some hdmi encoder.

Probably run into major issues with delayed audio though.

Have been happy with Tuta

I've had several brands. I'm sure none were privacy respecting. But beyond that they're all crap. They all break down and end up requiring near constant maintenance. They also don't do a very good job of vacuuming.

Better off getting a half decent vacuum (extra points if it uses bags because.... Bagless is fucking stupid) and for little clean up jobs get a manual sweeper like some restaurants use.

Yes that's a concern with all of them, Apple TV included.

That's what I'm using now and I like it.
