okay lemme grab my coat

Shit’s confidently wrong way too often. You wouldn’t even realize the bullshit as you read it.

The number of breaking changes has really gone down. I don’t think I’ve touched the config in a year. I don’t have it auto update though, just in case.

I’ve had to do very little work on Immich in the 2(?) years I’ve hosted it.

I think you’ve won, great work!

God I wish I had symmetrical upload. Gigabit down and like, 125mbps up.

Not so much for this but I self host stuff like my photos and I notice it’s slower when scrolling my photos outside the house. And using my personal VPN, makes my download limited to my upload speed.

My most uploaded file is a copy of Shrek 2 with Latin American Spanish dub, it took me over a month to download. I swear to God the only one seeding it was someone who would just open their client, download whatever they were looking for, then shut it off. It’s the only copy of that dub I could find in decent quality. Now I’m at ~50 ratio for that file.

If you can only find 0 seed torrents just chuck it in your client anyway, I’ve had several actually complete.

I’ve always liked their desktop. (As someone who quite likes the way macOS works).

I’ll have to see what the state of this on Arch is. I don’t much care for Debian anymore. Glad to see eOS is still going.

Clicking download on the site opened up a box that had a magnet link option. You can add that to your client. It’s the magnet icon next to the download button (after you click “download” on the choose your price page). I’ve included the magnet link below:

magnet:?xt=urn:btih:d52eea45cd83f947983192e1ce2ef723ce992fec&dn=elementaryos-8.0-stable.20241122rc.iso&tr=https%3A%2F%2Fashrise.com%3A443%2Fphoenix%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.com%3A1337%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80%2Fannounce&ws=http%3A%2F%2Fnyc3.dl.elementary.io%2Fdownload%2FMTczMjY3NTQ4Mg%3D%3D%2Felementaryos-8.0-stable.20241122rc.iso

For sure, 3 on one side and 2 on the other minimum.

Eh, it’s been a standard for nearly a decade now. We’d still be on DVI with this attitude.

But I already have peripheral devices with older connectors. This just forces me to buy dongles.

I already have a computer with USB-C - legacy connectors on peripherals force me to buy dongles.

Also, USB-C can only “do it all” on paper. In practice you have multiple sockets on any given device that support different subsets of the standard.

It’s definitely not as good as it should’ve been, but as long as PC manufactures include as many standards as possible it should play well with whatever standard the peripherals are using.

I’m good with it to be honest. One port that can do it all. Not proprietary.

The longer we keep including legacy ports the longer they’ll stick around on peripheral devices

Manufactures won’t change until forced. The transition period might be a bit painful, but worth it.

have ARM CPUs which means they aren’t PCs

Why on earth would architecture have anything to do with it?

only support UEFI booting so aren’t PC compatible.

Oh wow, I don’t think anyone using the term “PC” this century was referring to “IBM PC-Compatible” like it’s 1981. The only vestages of that is that the term excludes Mac even today.

For a lot of things yes.

However I do not want to use a browser developed by the US gov tyvm

Yeah I’m in a 5 person group chat, 2 Pixels, a OnePlus, and 2 iPhones. RCS works great for us so far

Immich (Photo backup), Vaultwarden (FOSS Biwarden server for passwords)

That’s not how bankruptcy filings work
