Possible alternative for Whatsapp is to run matrix and a WhatsApp bridge, then all of your messages will be stored in the WhatsApp bridge, and you can access them via a matrix client. Pretty long winded though. As for Android auto, I can't afford a fancy new car with a screen in it so I just mount my phone on the dashboard and use it like that with no Android auto.

Strikes me that there should be some kind of provisioning tool similar to Ansible for Android devices, what does industry do when they need to automate provisioning of thousands of devices for POS, retail, barcode scanning, delivery drivers, etc.

Remove the battery, take the motherboard out of the case. Plug the motherboard in, and voila you have a larger and more powerful raspberry pi. You could use it as a second node for control, management, observation purposes, etc.

I've run laptops before without batteries a few times and never had issues, is there a reason for the slowdown?

Interesting, never had that happen to me, but then perhaps you are using a laptop with a dgpu? I have not been. My laptop generally consumes 4w at idle and up to 15w under load, so I don't see this ever outpacing the 60w charger. The CPUs with the highest tdp are only around 100w anyway right? And in that case the laptop comes with a higher wattage charger. But you're right I guess it could happen depending on the hardware, never personally seen it however.

What is the purpose of the device? I'm almost certain that there is another option, which is just a small PC running whatever software you need.

I've used odoo before, it is a large piece of software and can be modified to do lots of things. Most likely you will be able to get it to do what you want. You'll probably need the e-commerce module, there is probably some sort of mode for subscriptions. You can also add the CRM on top for marketing, etc. there is also the booking module (iirc) which is maybe useful for sessions with trainers etc. maintenance might also be useful.

So have many others, except they didn't start a company based on it. As soon as it is part of a company, it is no longer free and open

tbh I'm scared of the power the gov already has. I am worried if I join any communist org, it will endanger my partners immigration status. I also don't see the orgs around me doing much useful stuff it seems, mostly just selling newspapers (that no one buys cos they cost a fiver)
