Amazing! 16 years with Ubuntu, and now I know!

I thought that dogs were boys and cats were girls. No idea why.

Its funny, my niece made it to like 8 thinking that aunts were adults and uncles were kids. She had one young uncle, and me. Called me “Auntie Phanto.” I still haven’t lived it down.

Wait… Someone explain things to me!

He was the worst! Zuckerberg levels of pseudo-humanity. Of course, he got promoted up and away.

Ugh. There’s a book about how to be a better boss, and one of the things it says is that adding a mild curse to otherwise normal speech will convince people you are being sincere. My boss read it.

“Well, this damn job isn’t going to build itself!”

“Aw shit! Lunch is over! Back to work!”

It was so awful.

The two things that popped into my head are Immich and Nextcloud. I think Nextcloud is generally more useful, but Immich is more specifically targeted at Photos. As for how to synchronize it… Syncthing? Personally, I hate setting up Syncthing and so I don’t really use it myself anymore, but once it’s set up, it really does take care of itself. Poke the computer once a month to make sure it’s still alive, and you’re set.

You could probably host Nextcloud at one site and just have a client computer at the next site set to auto sync everything.

Been running NextCloud for a while, not for photos, but for just general Google Drive replacement.

Commenting to register my interest.

I will confess that I was tempted to throw some snarky comment about Linux, but I got over the urge.

Yeah, I did try that. Basically, if I doubled the memory I allocated, I gave it half again longer before it crashed, but it still crashed, eventually.

It’s no big deal, this was last year, I may try again one day. Loving Searxng though!

I tried running yacy for a while but it just ran for a bit less than a day then ran out of memory and crashed, over and over. Tried to figure out the problem, but it’s niche enough that I couldn’t get anywhere googling the issue.

Mid Forties… 20 hour flight. Agony. No sleeping, got up a bunch of times, didn’t stop joint pain, back pain… Ugh. Some people can’t sit still for that long without issues.

My local library has a tech mentors program where you teach people how to work computers. I do it once every two weeks. It makes me feel like a rock star every time I go. If you’re on Lemmy, you’re qualified.

Changed everything for me!

Also looks good on a resume.
