Immich 3.0 20 days ago

Sure!

However, i also want the availability of my photos to be reliable, just like e-mail. It always has to work, wherever i am.

When i'm on the road, and there's some random issue due to power outage, database corruption, or whatever else, i don't want to have to wait until i get back home and make the time to fix things.

On the other hand, when i'm self hosting something like an RSS reader or Jellyfin to stream videos, it's less of an issue. That can wait a few days or weeks until i can fix it.

Thank you for the tip! Luckily there are some useful and thoughtful commenters on HN too, other than all the downvotes and negativity :-)

Apparently HN does not like "not self hosting" and/or "e2e encryption" ?

Meanwhile, i also found https://zeitkapsl.eu/

I don't want yet another self hosted service to manage (update, backups, possible hardware failures, energy costs, ups, etc.).

Unfortunately Immich is not end-to-end encrypted. If that would have be the case i'd use https://pixelunion.eu/

Seems like a great app though. So... i'm still pondering what to do :-)

Since Arch is hosting / facilitating the AUR on the archlinux.org domain, i think this causes less technical users to assume some level of trust. Even when they are aware that these are 3rd party packages.

Also i find it surprising that there's only very little/slow communication from Arch via their news channel. For example, how users can check for infections.

Yea, paru makes it really easy, i noticed the diffs are a little easier/different versus yay. Not sure though if it's a config setting, haven't figured out the details yet.

Also paru shows you coloured code syntax if you have `bat` installed, i think.

Noob question, but how do people know this is thrustworthy, since it's not from Arch / an official source?

There's a lot of voodoo in that script, i can't easily tell it's safe by reading the code.

I'd expect some reaction/solution from official Arch developers...

I don't see the "Claude" story. Did you change the filters? (i can clearly see a message that the AI filter is active in the top of the page.)

"GenAI" is not filtered indeed. Maybe it's not working perfectly, but it does work for most/many AI stories. Good enough!

PS. You can just add the word "GenAI" to your manual filters, in settings...

...so i think its just a cumulative view of the Hacker News front page, except grouped/ordered differently? ¯\_(ツ)_/

I'm So Tired of Ads 2 months ago

This reminds me of a time long ago when i first found out about uBlock Origin “Medium mode” [1] Daily browsing, searching, reading webpages and such is a lot better when using it.

It’s amazing to see how many webpages you can just read without any 3th party scripts being loaded at all. And in case you do need them, it’s a simple keyboard shortcut to load them (= Relax mode).

Other than that, i stopped “consuming” many kinds of media that have ads in them (radio stations, media streaming, etc.) If it has ads, i simply dont’t use it.

Left of the "Share" button there's a little arrow (pointing to the upper right) which opens to the original url... Right click it to share / copy.

Damn near impossible to find DRM free books to purchase

My method has always been to buy physical books (which is also better to support the author, because they get a bigger % of the price you pay.

And then, there are other creative ways to download the ebook... (without buying from Amazon, or other monopolists.)

For those wondering...:

"Blink is a browser engine developed as part of the free and open-source Chromium project. Blink is by far the most-used browser engine, due to the market share dominance of Google Chrome and the fact that many other browsers are based on the Chromium code."
