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.
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:
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:
These people use very expensive soap…
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!
Almost every one of the fingerprint sensors in laptops are not supported by Linux due to proprietary protocols. Never managed to get stuff used by Dell or HP with Linux.
But the Grow R503 can be used over uart, what can be connected to usb with some minor additional parts.
Yes, it would be unfortunate for a new user to experience all the horror our distinguished friend EvilSocket is telling everyone today…
Keep up the good work!
Did you uninstall cups and avahi?
That’s my understanding.
And I think a small fee to get out of the googlyclaws. Paying $100 once, to host immich for the family and supporting development is a no brainer to me.
But I understand not everyone has the resources or is willing to donate.
Thanks for this. Finamp looks really nice.
Esp32Cam with esphome running a webserver, add frigate in the mix and you can have dozens of cameras for just a few bucks.
Completely open source (apart from the espressif wifi radio stack, but who’s counting) and low cost.
Yes, quality of the camera will never compete with commercial stuff, but this is way more fun. Add as much cameras as your frigate instance allows…
Gonna recommend this to all my co workers.
It is not vulnerable to Windows viruses.
:-)
Yes, physically getting bigger.
Dell XPS had a batch laptops going crazy and pushing the touchpad up.
You will recognize it :-)
This.
Using a CEC link will make things even more simple, but that might involve additional hardware. Those raspberry thingies have native CEC on hdmi. For x86 you might have to look at some extra hardware.
And of course, Kodi is an example of a 10 foot interface.

Great for small and large scale networks, add devices by entering ip and snmp credentials and all done.
Add alerting if that’s your cup of tea.
