Yeah maybe I got so used to SSD’s that I can’t remember the leap between SSD’s and HDD’s.
An as you said the difference between M.2 isn’t that much of a difference in game. There probably lies my bias.

Does it really make that of a difference? Sure I use SSD’s for a long time now but haven’t seen that much of a speed improvement over HDD’s in games. Even with a m.2, haven’t seen any improvement.
However data transfer speed is another story !
Thank you :)) ! I have the same question as @umbrella if your have any other insights to share !
how is varlink better than dbus to justify that change?
Someone a short ELI ? I read the article and the comments… But I have no idea what this is about.
Maybe someone has an article that explains for someone not being educated as computer scientist ?
Nobody ever talking about lychee ?
Yes okay it’s not GPL or written in a fancy new language (PHP is still alive xD). But it’s simple, elegant, no UX bloat, no ML or IA stuff… Just a plain simple self-hosted photo manager.
One thing I really liked about it, you can import you external photo’s with .xmp files, just one checkbox away.
The tag feature is simple but working as expected. Nothing fancy but it does best what’s it’s supposed to do !!
Call me old boomer but I really like the simplicity of lychee. It’s a bit like how reading an article from miniflux or wallabag… Simple html files without bloating your eyes or your brain…
Just my 2c, nothing to see here !
For those interested, John Hammond did a video a few months ago about .lnk
extension (and other 16 hidden extensions on Windows).
He doesn’t go to much or to deep into the subject, but you get a general view how this could be exploitable.
To expand on my previous comment I dug a bit deeper the rabbit hole with exiftool to showcase how powerful meta tags
are over conventional tags
. I was curious how It would work and find an “universal” embedded tag system that works nearly on any software.
First thing first,from my personal research there are 4 important types of metadata fields:
It’s also possible to copy one over to the other. The most important ones are IPTC
and XMP
which are read by most image manager. XPkeywords
and MDItemUserTags
are OS specific to windows and macos respectively.
After some reading and fiddling around I used the following commands:
exiftool -IPTC:Keywords="Phil's Exif" Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
exiftool -XMP:Subject+=one Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
exiftool -XMP:Subject+=two Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
exiftool -EXIF:XPKeywords="tagtest" Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
exiftool -MacOS:MDItemUserTags+=tagging Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
I spun up a lychee docker container to test if my tags are automatically recognized:
What does that mean ? Does are embedded meta tags that works with every software capable of reading the IPTC or XMP metadata. Those tags will follow your pictures rather than being bound to a specific software database. So your tags are portable and embedded into you files which is in my opinion a better long term solution.
There’s probably way more to it and something that could be further explored is to export your metadata as .xmp
file, add those tags into the OS (XPKeywords, MDItemUserTags), bash script to manipulates even further…
Hope it helps to give you a sneak peak on what exiftool is capable. I’m a noob with this tool but it already shines and shows it’s power and capabilities with some basic commands.
Here are some resources if you want to give it a try and follow my trails:

An other solution could be exiftool by Phil Harvey. Don’t judge by how the website looks… It’s probably the best and most complete tool to edit the metadata directly into your images (and way to much other formats xD).
Even though it’s very well documented, exiftool is very complex and there’s a lot to read and grasp before getting comfortable with it. There’s always the forum if you have any question, but before asking the forum go through the FAQ (yes I know it’s huge… But as starting point look at number 11) and search a similar question in the forum.
Here I found a topic that looks like what you’re a looking for:
wow ! Not OP, but thank you for such a dedicated answer ! 🫶👍
The AI was cool! The way they would flank was pretty good for the time!
So truee ! Yeah I remember that was something really unique to FEAR ! Never had seen a similar AI in other games :/
F.E.A.R (the first one only) was absolutely scary and psychologically nerve wrecking…
The multiplayer was amazing though, the nail gun was something else !
Edit: Thank you, found it on your shared link ! 😄
Oh wow thank you ! Would it be to much to ask for a dark mode version? If there’s a one hit button to change into a more eye friendly color mode :)
Either way, thank your for sharing your work :))
Also, on your SMB server you need to add a specific configuration to play nice with OS X…

So yeah that’s on OP not reading through the documentation.
@reminder 20 years
Yeahh that’s the best IMO ! But I get most of the time stuck with some testOFtest001
files/directory… cause I’m lazy…
But I always ALWAYS regret it afterward… :/
Not a linux project, but OpenCamera for android is probably the only exception I know of. It’s still getting updated and does best what it’s supposed to do.
Here, look at this link :)
EndeavourOS is growing 👍 !!
What’s more impressive is the sudden and massive Manjaro drop out! Something bad must have happend during 2020-2022.
Same here :) switch from a 2 day Manjaro testing into EndeavourOS without the hassel of native Arch install.
Manjaro looks like a really good distro from the outside, but heard a few strange things about that specific distro I didn’t like at all. Also they messed with the boot up logo, add their personal bookmarks in new firefox install…
Had a really strange feeling about that non-authorized intrusive installation. I’m no expert so I won’t rant over Manjaro, but my moto says to always follow your guts !
I hope this is a smooth release, I do not want to bork my EndeavourOS. It took so much time to customize it to my personal taste !!
