The challenge didn’t ask to disable ipv4 but it was (jokingly) daring people to expose all ports to public to see how long the system would last before being exploited by bots. It wasn’t meant to be taken seriously 😆

the reason OP was thinking of doing this, was saving disk space and avoiding buying another hdd. So if it’s a 1:1 full disk image, then there’s almost no difference with the costs of raid1. Setting exclusions, avoiding certain big files, and so on. In this case he’s talking about restic, which can restore data but very hard to do a full bootable linux system - stuff needs to be reinstalled

i was also thinking like this, then i had to restore everything from a backup when the ssd suddenly died. I wasted so much time setting everything back as before

Even with free labor I can’t see how it’s cost effective once you consider the price of shipping a cheap and perishable good like a tomato

In Sicily many tomatoes are picked by immigrants paid 200 euro per week (70 hours weeks), that’s almost slavery; because it’s cheaper to transport the wholesale price paid by the factory located in Europe should be similar to tomatoes grew by slaves in a desert 3000 km far from the nearest port. Unless the purees factories are located there.

Gave him a favor, delete his account and move somewhere else.

Anyone should delete their xitter account

It’s magic, it can automagically solve any unrelated problem. He claimed that tariffs would lower child care costs (of course the ramble doesn’t specify how it would lead to lower child care costs because I definitely can’t see it leading to countrywide tuition-free public kindergartens like in many European countries)

They blocked it for a pure political reason, not for a security issue

This said, it’s stupid to use an ad-infested closed source app that probably exfiltrates your data for ai training when there’s a very good foss alternative

I thought that maybe they had a free and paid version and they accidentally switched apk butvlast update was 8 months ago and all of their apps are “paid” but have the “100% off” promotion on rotation

So their business plan is to use the “wow, this is free for a limited time, better get it now” feeling to artificially drive downloads. Because otherwise people wouldn’t get it even for free.

Indeed, I was excited to get this, as a very first glance it seemed well done. I was searching for a quality (=manually created puzzles) game similar to this. Then, immediate disappointment as I saw the banner ad on top and all the ai slop on the self promotion button that’s so prominent.

I noticed that all their artwork in all their apps is also ai-generated, which is a testament of the hard work they did.

Why mobile gaming has become like this, everything is literal trash 😢

I tried it. It has ads. Ads on a (supposedly) paid game???

And it’s extremely buggy

I’m shocked! Totally didn’t expect this

They are doing it because they need to cut expenses and not because they care about the situation (having a factory there doesn’t necessarily mean they have forced labor from prisoners, just ultra cheap labor from ultra low wage workers)

Shareholders first

When I did it, I did it manually with thunderbird, which is a great way to delete clutter meanwhile

Just select 1000 emails at a time and drop them in another IMAP server folder

In the gbatemp thread they wrote that this guy flew too much near to the sun:

1. Reused his username everywhere to the point that his name and the fact that he was from Arizona was public

2. Sent back to Nintendo multiple switches to repair using that name with an Arizona address

It wasn’t hard for them to dox and sue him as he literally gave them his real address multiple times…

It’s dangerous and you can blew it if you don’t know what are you doing but by shorting two specific pins, it’s possible to turn on the PSU and see it it’s working or not

Did you use a vacuum on the fans and let them spin during the clean?

Yes, it depends. In my case my server is underpowered so I didn’t like how much resources other galleries used (not only immich but also librephotos, photoprism)

removed? I feel it never had that, a century ago i wanted to copy contacts to sim when i had to send my htc dream with android 1.5 to repair, but it didn’t have it, only import.

I really like Ente.

Disadvantages:

• the photos that you’re self hosting are encrypted so if you want to have good sleeps you need to do daily exports
• Videos are also encrypted so no transcoding is possible. Client needs to download whole file before starting play (they say they have a solution coming for this)
• ML stuff is done client side so if you had a beefy server it will sit unused
• Exact duplicates are catched immediately (hash comparison before upload) but visual duplicates detection is trickier. Clients have a feature to find duplicates but it’s not as good as other software

Advantages:

• requires very little resources. The web album is static HTML and you can host it anywhere, even on GitHub pages, for free. Photos are saved in any S3 server, I chose garage. Then it has a postgresql database and a very light coordinator service. In total takes like 100mb of RAM.
• All the ML stuff is done on the client side when you’re browsing your photos so you don’t need a powerful server (on mobile devices it’s disabled by default in order to not kill the battery)
• Desktop client can be set to automatically backup all your photos in background
• Desktop client can be set to bidirectional sync a directory. Add or delete files from gallery automatically
• Mobile client takes track of what’s uploaded and can remove local files if a cloud backup is present (not automatically, need to press the “free up space” button
• Because it uploads to S3 and S3 natively supports chunked uploads you can upload files bigger than 100mb if using cloudflare free (immich uses a workaround for this but only works on desktop)
• Uploads are resumable
• Doesn’t have breaking changes where you need to use specific docker images like other galleries

If you pay them, they host it for you: one copy on B2, one copy on wasabi and a backup on scale way.

If you don’t pay them, you need to provide a S3 compatible endpoint for storage, a postgresql database and a coordinator. Doesn’t need fancy stuff

I think 5 years ago, on Ubuntu

64 gb of ecc ram (48gb cache used by zfs) with 2tb drives (3 of them)
