Fuck Sony overpriced crap. I'm still salty with their v2 update that damaged the battery.

Just another unimportant potatophone.

Where's the console.log('here') ? That would be the equivalent of a "you are here" on a map.

Their greed is my fuel. Arrrrr

I vouch for Syncthing as well. I enabled storing in my own remote hosting provider marking it as untrusted, so my files are encrypted there.

They're not oblivious, they just don't care because they know there won't be any consequences. And those few who dare to say anything are "antisemite" for not supporting genocide.

I'm not sure if you're referring to just the functionality of being able to pay by tapping the phone, but there's Google Pay, which does exactly that and is mostly accepted wherever apple's solution is accepted. It works in any Android phone with NFC.

The app is called Fennec F-Droid and is maintained by Mozilla. Just clarifying so it can be found.

There is no reason a camera cannot be on all the time... Why couldn't it?

Sensor wear, mechanical parts (if any), heat, etc. Essentially wear and tear. Just like nothing lasts forever, using it in a way that it's not intended/tested/quality assured, may reduce its lifespan.

Basically: "is the device intended to be on and recording 24/7?"

• yes: good, the device should last and perform for its purpose
• no: well, let's gamble and see how long it lasts

Glad to know. 2-3 years is a good lifetime, especially when compared against keeping the phone unused and stored in a drawer.

The camera is on all the time

That's what I meant: I don't know (as in I have zero clue) the camera is designed to operate that way. Is a naive assumption on my side and I'd be glad to learn this is not the case.

PIR sensor

No, I didn't expect a sensor, that's what I tried to say: the hardware is not there, so (on my mind) a constant image analysis/monitoring would be necessary in order to perceive movement and start recording, as in writing video to storage.
