Yup, my thoughts on this subject exactly and its so frustrating watching both tech people and non-tech people alike, adopt it in the guise of better battery life. The tech people should know better, but they either aren’t “hardware people” so they don’t know, or they do know, and don’t care.

Its coming to light in modern times, that they realized they could grab land and money by accusing vulnerable people, and then just taking their land when they couldn’t defend themselves against a confession under torture.

Keep in mind all the advancements and progress humans have made in mathemathics and sciences over the last few thousand years. Those people weren’t stupid, if they were doing stupid things, its probably because they were evil (like burning witches for their own financial gain)

Ahhh, I see

Oorrr they’re pieces of shit, apparently.

If you go this route and its a semi permanent solution, would probably be better to get a ip camera or something instead of a smart phone, that way you don’t have to worry about the phone battery going bad from being plugged in 24/7.
