Alrighty, old Linux user from the earliest of days.

It was fun, really great to have one-on-one with Linus when Lilo gave issues with the graphic card and the screen kept blank during booting.

It was new, few fellow students where interested, but the few that did, all have serious jobs in IT right know.

Probably the mindset and the drive to test out new stuff, combined with the power Linux gave.

It is ridiculous fast and probably not really smart.

But, the fact that we (Europe) have labels for the maximum speed a tire is approved for even till 300kmh, does indicate it is not abnormal.

As others already mentioned, above a certain speed, in case of an accident, you will be held more accountable.

But folks with BMW, Audi, Porsches etc. do drive serious cars. Going faster than 250 is not an issue with most of the models. The biggest challenge is to slow down from these speeds in a controlled way.

I couldn't agree more with your stand about the need for devices to be smart.

It is all about data-mining and advertising.

Maybe this is just me (or wishful thinking), but I do notice more people being cautious about stuff that needs a cloud connection.

People around me create dummy accounts to register Android enabled televisions, prefer stuff by eufy over ring etc.

Maybe we -as a bunch of uncontrollable nerds- should educate people more or at least share stuff like the wiki by Louis.

People need to know, they are the product..

Oh! The IOT toaster, perhaps a really good analogy! That was a good read and fitting for this situation.

When was it published? 2019/2020 ?? Well, took just 5 years for the corporate greed to get on par.

The point here is:

• not all functionality is available as-is. You need to install a cloud connected app.
• a cloud connection is not per se one direction. It is more than possible, the people operating this cloud (for Bosch) have the means (read: api) to connect back into your network via the hardware.

You might take a good look at this work.

As long as the firmware of the dishwasher isn't audited by third parties (or even better: open source), who knows what it is able to do in your network?

And all of this is not necessary, before the cloud, dishwashers worked fine too.

Docker host running immich amongst other containers. Backups are done nightly to a nas device on location, the immich container has a volume mount to an external SSD.

Fire: nah, won't survive it. Planning to fix this in the next few weeks, setting up a Nas on a remote location.

Just for support purchased the '"license"', entire household moved from Google photos to immich. All using wireguard with the 'include these applications' option. Gave them access to jellyfin and satellite receiver too, so they are very happy to keep it up and running. No complaints, immich works great.

The statement from Espressif:

Love the way, you "rack mount" your gear. :+1:

No.

Your brain has to process stuff. And it is at it's best when you are sleeping. Having your kids sleep in is beneficial for developing their brains.

Society might think you are lazy, but instead your brain is processing new thoughts and information.

Getting exhausted is not ok for a normal sleep pattern. Don't overdo it.

These people use very expensive soap....

Pretty solid how to by Louis:

If it is too cold for the equipment, it is too cold for me.

This error is a nice indication for me that I need to turn up the diesel heater before starting the voron.

I totally agree with you, the wording could be more clear.

Reading this: we have enabled a way for you to financially support the continued development of Immich, ensuring the software can move forward and will be maintained, by offering a lifetime license of the software

Was enough for me to order a server license (..). I like the software and being a professional developer I totally understand you might need funds to do the job.

So this is just my €0.02 to keep the flow from caffeine to code flowing..

It is a donation. You will get a license key and when applied to your instance, it will report you are a supporter in the web interface.

For me it was a means to show some support.

Thanks for all the hard work, delivering a great piece of software!

Immich server key purchased a few weeks ago, was the least I could do.

Using the go application to import the Google takeout zip file is a really good way to improve the WAF.

Thanks!

Hell yeah! Of course, best Christmas movie ever. Multicasting it over the corporate network since last Monday and won't kill the process before 2025!

now i've got a machine gun ho ho ho!

Yes, as an alternative to klipper -this really is your end goal - use the firmware by mriscoc, it is really nice and robust.

Gives you more options and the results are better than the stock fw.

Blink the window-title and in case something like a taskbar is used, use the application icon to get attention.

But don't act like you are the most important and single application on the system. Be modest.

Every single application or popup window will always attempt to get the highest z-order and switch keyboard input focus from wherever you were working to this window.

More than once, this resulted in input into the wrong window, causing problems.

And running this piece of junk os in a triple monitor setup; why do new windows (mainly outlook related) open on a different monitor ? If my input is on monitor 2, why are new windows opened on monitor 1 or 2?

A straight forward install of a recent Ubuntu version is much friendly for the user. But, as stated by someone else, improving the product is not gaining any cash flow.

Can't he get the extremely terrible way of grabbing focus and changing z-order fixed? That would be great..
