I was made aware that at most its 5 years of security updates due to the QCM6490 and then software for the remainder. 5 years is still pretty good but at that price point I would wait to see what google has to offer and then use grapheneos if its an option.
Guess sim cloning is much more difficult to do since its embedded. Note that this is different from sim swapping scams. Also could be considered more environmentally friendly but not sure on this one
I dont mean to be rude or anything but if I understand correctly what youre saying is dont teach them anything but how to input questions into a text field, right? Its the same old statement as "Why learn basic math if calculators exist" do you not see the problem there? Sure you get the answer but you wont understand what any of it means which will hinder the knowlege that humanity gained through the thousands of years they been on this earth. Thats a horrible take and I pray you understand why. I do agree that technology is a great tool and should be taught how to be used in school, it shouldn't be the only method of getting answers, thats just dumb and hurts everyone in the future.
Havent read the article yet but guess teacher's best option is to go back to paper and do all of their work during class period. Not sure how they'll handle homework though or outside projects
Currently in transition. I have about 300ish accounts to change the email handles but i set myself a goal of at least 10 a day, more if I feel like it. Its a journey not a race take your time. In the mean time though you should be backing up anything important off of your account if you havent already like contacts, photos, files and messages. That should help with your nerves, at least it did with me.
Ooo cant wait to hear how long the device life support will be heard its going to compete with ios in terms of longevity. Just hope they wont go the fairphone route
Edit: afaik Fairphone is offering 8 years of software updates but due to the hardware the security updates will be limited after 5 years specifically the lack of baseband security updates. Still good regardless for sustainability but not security. This person's comment made me aware
For encryption I stick to veracrypt for local and cryptomator for cloud storage (has a paid mobile application but free on desktop). 7zip also has an option to password protect but not sure how resilient that is.
Can even get the apk from their website that has a self updater so no aurora store/playstore needed also available on ios. Simplex is another option but not as user friendly for older folk
Im pretty boring so probably at 10 or less
