I agree but use docker-compose instead!

I'm not sure any game will ever top Bastion for me

I'm using Immich at the moment. Its not perfect but it works, which is more than I can say about some of the other self-hosted options I've tried. It has both a Web fronted and ios and android apps. The auto backup works well for me on android. You can easily set up user accounts for family members and your photo backups are kept separately and you can share photos and albums between the users.

There are still some smaller issues, like handling live photos gracefully, the native apps are not perfect (swiping photos could be more fluid), and some weird limitations where you can't seem to further share photos from shared albums.

However it is actively being updated and can run as a docker container meaning its easy to set up and maintain once you're familiar with docker.

You will still need to set up some form of dynamic dns so you can find your home server from the Internet. DM me if you need any help.

Generally in the west (US/Canada, and most of Europe) tap water is safe to drink. I've been to Iceland and don't remember tap water being a concern. This is something you should double check before every trip though. A good rule of thumb is just going by how developed/rich the country is that you are visiting, with more developed countries usually having potable tap water but this is not a guarantee. (And some countries are far too large and diverse to apply this rule efficiently)

Also asking the locals is not necessarily a good idea either as there immune system might be accustomed to the different bacteria and pollutants in the water. For example drinking tap water in some places in the Middle-East might not be an issue for the locals but as I haven't grown up there I probably wouldn't risk drinking tap if I can avoid it, not to ruin the trip with getting sick.

TLDR: check with your country's official travel recommendations

Edit: someone mentioned bottleded water just being bottled tap water. While this is not uncommon in Europe (not sure about the rest of the world), the water does go through extra steps of filtering and cleaning meaning it might be a bit safer to foreigners.

I know I've found a great community here if this is the top answer.

I'll believe that once I see it.. We have been told the era of next gen batteries is just around the corner every year since the iPhone came out now. We're still using some version of lithium based tech in most applications where power density is important (phones, laptops, cars, etc.)

This is very neat! I wonder how this is going to impact almost all phones these days having some sort of ingress protection. They glue the phones together to keep the water out, it would still be nice to have the option for water-resistant phones, but the manufacturers just gonna have to figure it out

Was it more involved than sign out -> factory reset -> set up as a new phone? (I'm just curious, have been on android for a few years now)
