What are you all doing for android "provisioning"?

Hi! I'm swapping my daily android phone for the nth time today and going through my set-up "check-list". As apps are updating/installing, I thought I'd check in with the hive-mind, what are you all doing to make the process easier?

restoring the whatsapp chat history from its own backup worked every time i tried it.

Maybe the backup was created by an older version of whatsapp than the version you were trying to restore to?

A backup solution like "seedvault" which is built in to lineageOS might help. It includes settings like wifi passwords, app-data and the apk's.

Since seedvault is integrated as a system app in lineageOS, it doesn't require a rooted system like titanium.

There are some limitations though, for example some apps don't allow backups and seedvault respects that setting.

Then you could restore to the last snapshot. But you would need a live system to do that, if your installation is broken

i've used windows and linux on separate drives in the same desktop for ages and it's been working fine.

I'm using windows mostly for games that aren't available natively and don't work via wine/proton

Deep space probes are already nuclear power sources.

Right now this is mostly a radio isotope heat source and a peltier device to convert the temperature differential to electricity.
