Got a bidet as a joke gift for Christmas a few years ago, it has been an absolute game changer. Hate pooping anywhere but home now, I actually feel clean, and use much less toilet paper.

You still wouldn’t need to go inside the building. You can park and have someone come take your order like the old style drive ins, or even order ahead of time (app or mobile website) and park and just wait for your food to be brought to your car. Can still have the cost reduction of not having seating without all the drawbacks of the drive thru.
@selfhosted may be a good place to ask. Can run your own "cloud" photo backup on a computer so photos taken on phones can automatically be saved. Would also recommend a second drive at friend/family house so you can back-up off-site to follow the 3-2-1 rule (3 copies, 2 different types of storage, 1 offsite) for backups. For even better redundancy for drive failures you could run a NAS running multiple drives in RAID. Basically, RAID combines multiple physical drives into a single "logical" drive with different speed, capacity, and redundancy capability and the NAS allows you to access that over your local network or internet.
Great video from Not Just Bikes on third places.
Main issue is how we are/have been building towns/communities. More often than not, you'll see new builds on land solely for single family homes or only residential apartments instead of mixed used (commercial first floor, residential/office second+ floors) buildings. These all feed onto higher speed roads/highways where you have to drive to shop/eat/work/etc. Many older/pre-suburb towns may still have good third places, we just don't build towns like that anymore.
You could use the Steam link app on your phone and basically any Bluetooth controller.
