My cameras are wireless. Some I recharge every 3-4 months, the others are powered by solar.

My city has both benches and these. I like these because I can lean on them without removing my backpack. I think it really depends on the City whether their hostile or not. I also noticed McDonald's has them in their order waiting area too.
Thing is. Good chance your neighbour was probably a victim of crime. A few nights in a row I was making supper and someone was trying to get in my place by trying the handle. My packages also started to go missing and a few years ago someone walked into my apartment while I was trying to wrangle my cat because the fire alarm was going off, pretty sure they wanted to rob my place because they left without saying anything and got freaked out when they saw me still there. It's nice having it because I can see who is at my door Without putting myself in the line of fire, and it deters people from pulling any bullshit while I'm not home.
It's understandable that it's a bit annoying it's pointed right at your door. Mine doesn't face anyone's door. Just the hallway, you could ask your neighbour to install an angled adapter so it's not facing your door. Personally I treat my building hallways like I would treat any public place, and always assume there's a camera somewhere. There's also a very good chance there is CCTV in your building already if it's a larger building.
Portable gaming Pcs. I would love to have my entire library of games accessible offline. My emulation folder alone is like 500gb. I also wouldnt call myself a normal user though. These definitely have a niche market and probably a price tag just as niche.
