The problem with those is that the picture quality is not the same as traditional TVs.

I suspect what you are looking for is a gsm gateway. There are many standalone implementations, some ready made, some a bit more DIY
- Comment on Pi-hole client filtering without DHCP? 3 weeks ago:
Just so you know, you can run pi-hole as a container as well
About dhcp, I don’t know about unifi, but I guess in the firewall you can configure static dhcp leases. So son1 devices always get same ip. Then you can configure a hairpin port forwarding, so any requests for ports tcp/udp53 from his devices get forwarded to pi-hole. That is assuming that in the “general” dhcp config you assign an external dns.
Otherwise you could try creating two different dhcp pools, one with pi-hole (and make sure son1 devices get a static lease in there) and one for everyone else.
As a side note, I recommend looking into self hosting your piped instance, so even son2 can enjoy YouTube without all the ads! (And the tracking)

To each their own man. I just would not have enough memory on my potato servers to run all those VMs 😅

Why all those VMs instead of containers?
- Comment on How would I repurpose a work laptop? 5 weeks ago:
And your words show your lack of experience in the matter. Usually work laptops have their bios locked down, so you can’t access it and change the boot sequence and install what you want.
Some just put a password that sometimes can be reset, other times there are full on lockdowns by dedicated security apps that are very difficult (if not impossible) to circumvent.

I think you mean Jami (single m).
It’s a nice concept but I’ll try to get my xmmp server nice and secured.

Ah, I host my own instance of piped, that solves a problem 😅
- Comment on Jellyfin/YT/Twitch TV box (Raspberry pi 4) 1 month ago:
I use a rPi3 for this stuff exactly. I have about 300 movies in the folder (I know it sounds like a rookie number but I keep only stuff I know it will be watched) and kodi (through jellyfin addon) only takes a few seconds to load. My jellyfin server is not on the nas itself, it’s on a separate docker server for hw transcoding on the fly (and the nas has hdd drives).
I used the piped addon for youtube.
I use kore app on my phone to control kodi. Been working like this for about 7 years.

- Comment on I don't like the Linux clipboard situation 2 months ago:
Hum, what’s the “second clipboard”? The one where you only highlight a text and then I can paste it with right click?
To me that’s amazing, I can (and do) use ctrl-c for some stuff and highlight for other.
As always, I like the flexibility.
Also I use vi 😜

On buses the card payment system is (usually) not real time. The card info is processed overnight. This assuming the network connection between the bus and the processing system is up. Mobile networks towers do have batteries, but only for few hours. Only in remote areas they have generators (I’d expect a few in cities but mostly not).
