Convenience? Ok. But safety? Are door viewers unsafe?

I should really switch away but haven’t had the money

Why just not ditch the doorbell camera altogether?

The light bulb form factor was created hundreds of years ago for incandescent light bulbs. In this form factor, it is impossible to properly cool the LEDs. I used 12 pieces of Yeelight Pro 8W in a 10 m² room, and this room was as bright as the sky.

The latest Chinese smartphones use new S/C batteries. They have a capacity of 6000-7000 mAh with even less overall weight.

Xiaomi 11i Hypercharge can go from 0% to 100% in 15 minutes. And it’s a 2021 phone.

I have battery powered fan from Xiaomi.

Enshitification in action. During 2024, Telegram declared war on rooted Android alongside WhatsApp and Viber. This means you can’t log in to your account if you have root access or if you don’t have Google services.

Ubuntu touch is dead. Are there at least native browsers for it?

Touch screen in the doorbell… What’s next? A doorbell that requires a mobile app to use?

It’s a video

Marketers manage to convince tech-savvy people that their device is almost unusable by manipulating percentages. For example, “50% brighter screen, 30% more energy efficient”. It even worked for me when I didn’t want to buy a previous phone model just because the latest generation had a 50% brighter screen. But then I realized that I was perfectly happy with the screen of my 4 year-old phone.

“Just Google it,” they said. So, you Google it. You find one result. It’s a forum post. From you.
