Dang, that’s incredibly cool. Hadn’t heard of this!

Very nice! Was looking at the exact same frames after doing some more research, a 10 inch frame for about as cheap as some empty frames I’ve seen, with documentation on the process provided by Immich Frame themselves.

Your private mesh network is an elegant addition to it as well, I may consider something similar. As mentioned in the post, Immich Frame doesn’t recommend being exposed to the Internet, and just has support for a simple single password system. I still feel better about that than being in Frameo’s database I know nothing about and would be paying suspiciously little for, but it’s not exactly ironclad either.

Definitely let me know how it goes if you tackle it in the next week or so!

Correct! This would be going out to family that doesn’t just live close enough to see her and take their own pictures, so being able to add more remotely is the whole point!

Haha, I found myself thinking the same thing, and then caught myself, realizing all the other LLMs on this page had lowered the bar immensely for what I’m considering impressive.

Yeah, basically the only thing I really use the terminal for is ujust, a series of scripts maintained by Bazzite themselves. And ujust does have a script to install a GUI fan controller app, btw, which I’ve used to setup my own fan curves, and found it pretty darn usable despite it being the first time I’ve done such a thing.

The OS is immutable, so you’re probably right that lower level tasks are harder, but Bazzite themselves have stepped in and created a dedicated command for pretty much anything finicky I’ve thought to do in the past year or so.

I missed out on Nicole, pleased to be part of the Illuminati! 🔱

Wow, what a mess. Personally, I’m fine with this degree of telemetry, trying to understand how many people are using your app has obvious value and isn’t a huge concern for me compared to what telemetry usually refers to. This feels like a bit of a “mountain out of a molehill” where the overwhelming quantity of feedback has aggravated the primary dev into being very jaded about the whole topic. I assume he got a lot more flack for this than is still preserved in this thread.

The big thing about Bruno is that nothing is synced to the cloud, so I can use it without worrying about it being a security risk. In addition to being pretty great, and letting me easily distribute a collection in a git repository. For that, it definitely still earns my support as a good tool, whether I’m logged as a “daily active user” or not.

Still, hopefully the main version does get that opt out added, mostly just to remove the black mark from its name and to be properly GDPR compliant.

Good point, 4K text for programming is pretty fantastic, if you don’t mind small text and use a big monitor, I could see 8K bringing some worthwhile clarity improvements to some productivity workflows. It’s probably better for monitors than it is for TVs.

Yeah, legitimate 8K use cases are ridiculously niche, and I mean… really only have value if you’re talking about an utterly massive display, probably around 90 inches or larger, and even then in a pretty small room.

The best use cases I can think of are for games where you’re already using DLSS, and can just upscale from the same source resolution to 8K rather than 4K? Maybe something like an advanced CRT filter that can better emulate a real CRT with more resolution to work with, where a pixel art game leaves you with lots of headroom for that effect? Maybe there’s value in something like an emulated split screen game, to effectively give 4 players their own 4K TV in an N64 game or something?

But uh… yeah, all use cases that are far from the average consumer. Most people I talk to don’t even really appreciate 1080p->4K, and 4X-ing your resolution again is a massive processing power ask in a world where you can’t just… throw together multiple GPUs in SLI or something. Even if money is no object, 8K in mainline gaming will require some ugly tradeoffs for the next several years, and probably even forever if devs keep pushing visuals and targeting upscaled 4K 30/60 on the latest consoles.

Bit of an odd answer, but for me (and my wife), the last piece of the puzzle was really budgeting. The invisible, constant financial stress is a lot, and adds to that feeling of “pretending” when you’re not even sure if buying groceries will cause a bill to bounce, let alone hanging out with friends who always seem to comfortably have the money to do whatever it is you’re doing.

It’s been several years now (early 30s, started budgeting in late 20s), it took us a while to figure it out and progress was slow, but I can “see the line” now, towards retirement, towards home ownership, we have no more credit card debt (just student loans left, which we’re working on), and we budget “fun money” that I save up to make big purchases like a 7900XTX without any guilt or credit.

We’re also having our first kid soon, and at least financially, I’m not stressed about it at all, which would’ve been impossible in our twenties. Getting our financials in hand and headed in the right direction has just done massive work in helping me feel like I know what I’m doing, and that our life is actually getting better rather than stuck in place.

I’ll give two answers to this question, from the perspective of a Christian reading the Old Testament/Torah.

Wouldn’t it be effective to convince followers of a religion if a religion could accurately predict a scientific phenomenon before its followers have the means of discovering it?

This is interpretative, but if there is a God, he seems big on free will. Why give humanity the option to sin in the garden at all? Why not just reveal himself in the sky each morning? Why even bother creating a universe that can be explained without him? There’s an abundance of easy ways God could make himself irrefutable, and yet in the Bible he makes us “in His image”, and offers us choices like that tree in the garden.

Furthermore, why even create us to sin in the first place? My interpretation of the Torah is that God is big on relationship, and that free will is a key part of that. Just like a human relationship based on a love potion is kinda creepy, and a pale imitation of something real, it seems like God doesn’t want to be irrefutable.

I think that’s the more relevant answer to your question, but I’ll also give the only example that comes to mind of the Bible seemingly imparting “scientific knowledge”, which is to look at the laws around “cleanliness”. Someone else already mentioned some “unclean” animals, but if you read more, they pretty consistently seem like good advice around bacteria. Some examples of times you need to “purify” (essentially take a bath) that seem like common sense now:

• being around dead bodies
• touching blood that’s not yours
• having your period
• etc.

Reading this as a modern person aware of germs, many of these “laws” seem like they would have kept the death rate of faithful Jews a lot lower than their neighbours in that day.

Exactly what I’ve done. Set my settings to hide NSFW, blocked most of the “soft” communities like hot girls and moe anime girls and whatever else (blocking the lemmynsfw.com instance is a great place to start), and I use All frequently. That’s how I’ve found all the communities I’ve subscribed to, but frankly, my /all feed is small enough that I usually see all my subscribed communities anyway.

Honestly, I’m a bit relieved at the current situation, because I wasn’t nearly as certain he was done. With incidents like January 6th, all the claims of voter fraud, his clear abuse of systems like presidential pardons and executive orders, I really thought Trump had a genuine chance of overturning the 2-term limit and twisting the US into a bona fide dictatorship.

I’m relieved to see his astounding incompetence finally reaping results in his polling numbers again and again, because it’s breaking the spell he seemed to have over half the country. Hell, it’s even breaking the allure of fascism in the elections of other countries at this point. His gross incompetence during this presidency is single-handedly moving the whole world a little more to the left.

Ugh, this is what our legacy product has. Microservices that literally cannot be scaled, because they rely on internal state, and are also all deployed on the same machine.

Trying to do things like just updating python versions is a nightmare, because you have to do all the work 4 or 5 times.

Want to implement a linter? Hope you want to do it several times. And all for zero microservice benefits. I hate it.
