I didn't understand that you ran it without hardware virtualization. This is really convenient, thanks a lot for making it!

I've never had the chance to work with the RAW format, but I think Photoprism should handle it transparently. Depending on your area of knowledge, the setup might feel a bit convoluted though.

I work as a professional developer in .NET on Windows, and in my free time I develop in .NET on Linux as a hobby.

Unfortunately I would say the .NET development experience on Linux (with VSCode) is slightly inferior compared to on Windows (with Visual Studio).

For instance there is no support for SourceLink during development, only during debug. And on VSCode the "go to definition" to third party assemblies works only for one level deep, whilst on Visual Studio it works for any depth level.

It is certainly still a great experience on Linux, but not «better than Windows» in my opinion. If you have any recommendations to improve it please share, I would be very grateful.

Ah I get what you mean, I used to share your same view. I used to think that the MIT license was more free than GPL for the reasons you mentioned.

When Google started working on Fuchsia OS and they said it will be MIT license, I started to get worried that smart products producers would start using it instead of Linux. Then they wouldn't need to release the source code to customers as the software would no longer be GPL.

The difference is that MIT gives more freedom to the producers, while GPL gives more freedom to the consumers.

Personally, my sympathy goes to consumers, not producers, thus I understood why people say GPL is more free than say Apache or MIT.

Licenses such as MIT, Apache, MPL, etc... are a double-edged sword. 😬

As far as I understand, you only have to make your changes to the code available to users of your software. You are free to make any modifications as long as you keep them to yourself and don't share the binaries (or access the service, in case of AGPL) with anyone. I might be mistaken, though.

Are you sure about that? That would be surprising for me, as I had never before heard about Electron running on mobile.

A quick dive in Element Android's dependencies didn't reveal any mentions of Electron, but perhaps it's referenced in some other way.

Could you describe the kind of glitches you are getting?

As a first test (and only as a test) I would try holding space bar during boot, then pressing E while focusing the Pop!_OS option, and removing quiet and splash from the line on the bottom, then pressing enter to boot.

In my very limited experience, when this happens the filesystem can (and will) still be mounted as read-only.

I have one. It does the bare minimum (show time, count steps, show notifications), everything else doesn't work very well, including the heart monitor. But the battery lasts for almost a month. And it's completely offline, no cloud services. I would still recommend it.

That's interesting. I wanted to try it not long ago, and downloaded a random build which didn't complete installation unfortunately. I'm not a good at searching I guess 😅 How did you distinguish it from the others?

EDIT: found it here.

It's an application that runs in the background and applies all sorts of filters and effects to your sound before it goes to the speakers. It's actually quite cool, it can upgrade a crappy set of speakers/headphones to a mediocre one by applying the right adjustments.
