First, I love you for this joke. Second, I don’t want to risk pissing off Ron Swanson.
I am a huge fan of immich, been running it for quite a while, it started as just phone photo backup but it’s good enough that I’ve made it my primary photo repository (fully backed up of course). I will absolutely pay for a license but count me as one who doesn’t really like the terminology used.
I would happily put a donated or supporter badge to show off, but the unlicensed just feels a bit wrong. I have no trouble paying for software, especially as useful as immich, but in the enshittifying world we live in, such language gives one pause.
That’s why one of the things I bought is a 3D printer.
Bought some of the old versions for backup drives. That was a mistake.
I love the promise of passkeys but it’s been painfully obvious the promises are just wallpaper over the actual intent which is vendor lockin.
while he will certainly lose the popular vote, he and the cult are busy setting the stage for Jan. 6th round 2. every trick to steal it will be tried and by how feckless our judicial system has been, I have very little hope of our institutions holding this time.
it's got to be an epic, undeniable drubbing, else we're all wearing red hats this time next year.

i am so glad i deleted all my posts. im sure they have backup hisory though :(.
You are right, apologies, I'm talking from the US perspective but we aren't alone, same could be said from several..
Looks good but still has the ai hallmarks, rotating legs, f’ed up gait.. impressive though and it’s going be wild to see what results from this latest pox on the tubes.
I’ve noticed the same thing but fortunately I still am crazy for peanuts. An interesting observation though and now you have me fearing getting sick of them.
It sucks because it’s beginning to feel like a life wasted. I got in early, my career pre-dates the 1st .com crash. My first browser was Mosaic, then shortly became Netscape with the big pulsating “N” animation.
I LOVED the early internet. I loved the personal sites, webrings, IRC and newsgroups. I remember the first time I spoke with someone on the other side of the world (hello to my Canberra friend, it’s me, your midwestern buddy). I felt part of something that was new and exciting and fun.
Then ads came and it’s just gone to shit ever since. To the point where I now hate being online, all my shit is selfhosted and I barely interact with anything besides lemmy and mastodon (they still feel like the actual internet).
I used to be slightly disappointed my kids didn’t turn out as nerdy as me. Now I am just thrilled that I was able to be a cautionary tale for them.
