This was before the EU forced them to implement RCS.

Thanks for mentioning GalliumOS! I’ll be putting that on my SO’s old Chromebook now.

Interesting, when I took Waymo, it was cheaper than Uber and Lyft, pre tip.

Going off what fishpen0 said, Waymo actually has sensors on it to detect things and can “understand” its surroundings much better than Tesla cars can wish just cameras.

I’ve ridden in Waymos and they are smooth riding. After the initial “OMG! There’s no driver!” You kind of forget about it. You get to your (limited area) destination safely and without much hassle.

I can go more in depth if ya want.

I bought a couple of these for around the house. https://a.co/d/5vjsVs3 Works very well but mostly at night.

Also to make sure you regularly do the dishes, take out trash and clean up any food sources for the flies. After using the above and doing the above, mine went from insanity to maybe 1 or 2 around the house in about a week or two.

Awesome! Thanks so much!

I have a boat load of stuff thru nginx. Using nginx-proxymanager. Dunno if I need to add any special parameters for Jellyfin. Tailscale Funnel is working fine for now.

If you could share your settings for your nginx setup, that might help me.

If and when Jellyfin “needs” revenue, 100% agree. But with that post they’re saying they’re not worried about it, unlike FUTO/Immich.

Hopefully one day Jellyfin will be big enough and stable enough to warrant that kind of funnel.

Right now, I use TailScale funnel for Jellyfin. For some reason nginx just bogs it down too heavily.

My biggest question to FUTO/Immich is if they’re worried about a revenue stream, why not do something similar to Home Assistant? You never have to pay HASS a dime and never see anything to “shame” you. All you get is essentially a forwarding subdomain with some “easier” ways of doing cloud related things. There’s zero “shaming” or calls to pay. I pay HASS/Nabu Casa monthly cause I’m lazy and it makes my life easier. FUTO should consider doing something similar.

If you’re talking about the “Cop City” protesters, that was Georgia State. Not Federal government. It’s 100% bullshit but it’s not Biden’s fault. It’s the Republican lead government of Georgia and their AG.

The iMessage lock-in is too real for some of us. I know some iPhone users who won’t even install FB Messenger (I know, I don’t use it either. Fuck the Zuck) because it’s not Apple/iMessage. I finally got my family on Signal and “OMG! We can send videos and pictures now!” Yeah, been saying it for years lol.

Got myself a Logitech G502X and the Powerplay charging mouse pad. Now I can have my wireless mouse charged 24/7 and never have I think about plugging it or docking it.

It’s definitely the blue vs green bubbles. Your average user doesn’t even know iMessage is E2EE. They also don’t care.

Google photos is just cloud back up like iCloud backup for iOS devices.

Google photos is also on iOS devices, so you could have your photos on any of your devices.

Late to the party but this why I like Ventoy. It only looks for removable drives and then all you do is drag and drop your live images onto the removable drive. Pretty hard to mess anything up.

I mean, technically you could build it yourself and just use PS/X controllers. I know it’s a lot more work than just buying it premade but at least you could fulfill your own dream in the meantime.

I would say off only with the capability to view temps. IoT devices are shit when it comes to security and turning on remotely just scares the hell outta me. This is from someone whose whole house is decked out in IoT stuff.

100% agree with you. It’s why I use Privacy.com and set a limit to what it can charge. Stuff gets more expensive without me noticing, welp. I gotta decide if it’s worth it to keep paying.

(Sorry, sounds like a shill. It’s just saved me multiple times in the past.)

Sorry, I look 12 without it even tho I’m well over 30. To each their own. 🤷
