I interpreted it as directed at me and my comment, because you wrote it as a reply to my comment, rather than a reply to the article.

The rest… i will leave you with that. I still disagree with your perspective.

Why not both?

I’m not sure why your response is so hostile against my support of the idea, or why you make so many unfounded assumptions.

How do you know I don’t raise my voice against those views in public? And I never said anything about such spaces being “zones out of sight”, that was your addition. I didn’t say that this article’s idea was the limit of what I support.

Sure it could be “even better”… literally any idea could be even better. But if you attack everything less than perfection, we will never get anywhere.

Would be great for more sports (and cities) to offer spaces like this.

The whole point of that phrase is that it’s a curse.

I like FeedMe (on Android). It’s really versatile to customise the UX to your liking.

Definitely fake. Funny idea though.

That’s all true (unlikely it gets wiped, but definitely technically possible), but i accept it as part of the ‘deal’. My personal data is automatically backed up, if the phone got remote wiped at any point it wouldn’t matter. I know i will need to give it back eventually, but i will have skipped a generation of device (and data plan) in the meantime.

The story with the lady is funny, not sure how she thought it would work.

I don’t use my work laptop as my personal one, i have a personal gaming PC and tablet. If i didn’t have my tablet i might temporarily use the work laptop for personal stuff when travelling, instead of buying a laptop just for that.

Reasons for using the work phone: i don’t need to spend a lot of money duplicating the hardware i already have for free; i don’t need to pay for a phone/data plan to service that second device; i don’t need to carry two phones around (since i need to have the work one anyway).

Any particular reason you have in mind why one should not use their work phone? Or why is this surprising to you? Also not meant disrespectfully, only trying to understand where you are coming from.

Yes?

Yes, why not? It arrived with separate profiles for work and personal.

No to the custom ROM option. It’s due to my employer’s security policy. I would also never pay for a phone that I couldn’t fully control and customise but… I didn’t have to pay for this one. The main cost is losing sideloading.

It’s not so much the phone (Samsung S22) as that it’s controlled by my employer’s security policy (which prevents sideloading).

Exactly what I’ve been looking for! Does it include photo editing tools?

I would need an app on the Play store though, my phone doesn’t allow sideloading.
