I dunno, laptops have gotten tremendously better - can run most of a day without power anymore. I certainly have charged my phone 3x as much as my laptop. And I already carry an external 10k Wh battery for my phone.
OP actually raises a good point about power consumption that I hadn’t considered in a while.
NeoBackup only works if rooted, unfortunately. Well, unfortunately users don’t have full control over iOS and Android without having to sidestep stuff.
Laptops are arguably potentially far more secure. Most mobile apps collect every bit of data they can (and have internet access for no reason) , and mobile devices have standardized ways of enabling it - how often other apps are launched, what other apps are installed, etc, etc. PC OS’s don’t have that stuff built in, and apps rarely have that kind of code. Plus they’re just easier to firewall (as much of a nuisance as it is to do. Hell, GCM was built to do most of this stuff.

I don’t waste money on new phones, or new cars.

Schedule such walks in your calendar.
If you know it’s going to be nice tomorrow, schedule a meeting in your calendar for the time you should walk. Then, since it’s your work calendar, it’s just part of managing your day, you’ll feel more committed to it when you get the notification.
My personal accidental variation on pomodoro - all those meetings I have to attend generate work, and interfere with my schedule. I always schedule time in my calendar for dealing with stuff from meetings.
So if I have a 1 hr meeting at 10a, I’ll add 30 minutes to it in my calendar (generally I only need 10 or 15 min). I’ll also schedule time in my calendar for work that needs doing, mostly to block time so meetings won’t eat up my day.
Sometimes those blocks are for specific tasks (e.g. Something that came out of a meeting) or just a general block so I can do some work between meetings.
No one needs to know why a specific time isn’t available in my calendar (no one has ever asked, and if they did, I’d say “I don’t know, I’d have to look” or tell the truth that it’s to work on something specific). Who could argue with that?
Interesting organic approach
It doesn’t seem to say it doesn’t affect ADHD meds, just gave a list of known interactions.
My takeaway: since it’s known to interact with some meds, it could have an effect on others.
You’re increasing available O2, which usually means an improvement in metabolism (reduction, at least, and perhaps increased cellular function), so it’s hard to say how it would impact a given med without understanding how it’s metabolized.
I would think any condition would improve if you increase O2 availability for someone who has anemia. Hell, increasing O2 seems to help anyone generally, part of why exercise is recommended for almost any condition.
Newpipe breaks often. It’s why I switched to Grayjay, it just works.
Though I do prefer Newpipe.

Best part with JMP is SMS is piped into XMPP/JABBER. So you’re no longer tied to a phone/Sim card for sms.
No 7 year old should have dad’s access code/password.
They should also know to not touch dad’s phone.
Would you let them use your work PC? Drive the car? Play with a Leatherman?
Meh, security isn’t one thing, it’s layers.
Everything always has risks. 0-days most notably.
Take a look at the NTLM risk that was just announced - every version of Windows is susceptible to it. Minimizing access to small groups is what has kept smart businesses safe from it. Along with things like isolating primary systems on a VLAN with no direct access, unless authorized by more than one person, and through well-configured, specific mechanisms.
Everywhere I’ve worked has had to run expired OS’s for one thing or another - typically CNC type systems that were built for DOS or maybe XP. Do we stop running those systems just because the OS is no longer supported? No - they either get air-gapped or run on a very isolated VLAN with very strict access controls.
Then there’s the person’s threat model. Who is likely to be after you? Do you run questionable apps or just basic ones? Do you have Google services (it’s a risk in my opinion)? Does your phone have a firewall? Do you block network access for apps that shouldn’t need it? Do you separate apps into user profiles to keep data from leaking across them? Do you use a VPN? Maybe a mesh network to your own systems, with all internet traffic going there, then filtered by that firewall or IPS/IDS?
Lots of ways to skin the cat, but most importantly is to maintain layers. Layering is why MFA is such a big thing right now - it’s another access control layer.
I run a bit wild, I admit it. But my threat model doesn’t include people specifically coming for me, or state-level actors. I do have some data-destruction mechanisms in place, just in case.
Oh, no, I can’t use the McDonald’s app!
Can’t remember the last time I spent money on McDonald’s over priced crap.
If nothing else can you use the browser?
I’ve used Hermit for years to present websites like an app, and am using Native Alpha on my new phone.
Use a browser like Native Alpha or Hermit, which present a website like an app.
And if you use Bitwarden/Vaultwarden for your passwords, it can be pretty seamless.
