There really is no rock bottom for how fucked this situation is, is there?

No food individually "causes" obesity and health issues. Overuse of some foods can. If we want people to be healthier, maybe we should offer free accessible cooking classes, or (gasp) not put people in the position where they have to work so much to pay the bills they don't have time to prepare healthy food.

All this does is punish people who are already in shit circumstances. Maybe they want a treat for their kid, maybe they want to have a fun movie night, maybe it's none of your business?

I used to have a few of them. Everyone who saw them thought they were diseased, but they were just my cute mini vultures to me 🤣

So people are supposed to get excited about voluntarily scanning their eyeballs and giving the data to a private company to prove that they're a human, to theoretically protect themselves from AI imposters generated by... The same dude's other company. And people are actually doing it because crypto bribes.

Goddamnit, Black Mirror is supposed to be a cautionary tale, not aspirational. I'm so tired.

This is the corect answer

I feel so bad for anyone who lives there through no choice of their own

I've seen them recommended before and had been wondering about finding a trusted server to have it hosted. I'll check out Hetzner, thx!

Sorry to inform you this is real, we apparently are in the timeline where The Onion became reality

Damn you have some good nurses. In my liberal area the best they did was mention that it's optional (literally some people think it's not). We also have liberal relatives who did it to their son just so he'd "look like dad." Wtf

Link looks awesome, thanks! Do you also keep a separate cloud backup of your photos in case your server is damaged (like in a disaster or something)?

Once I bounced a check to our water company and they refused to take checks or credit cards from me for a YEAR as a punishment. It was a one-time accident after paying on time for around seven years. I literally had to drive my ass down there with cash. It's a small rural water service, not a big corporation - they chose to be complete assholes even after I explained the situation (we had a baby that month and forgot a monthly $ transfer in the chaos).

Same mistake probably cost us $120 in overdraft fees. Society financially punishes people who need money the most and rewards the people who have plenty. It's ridiculous.

Is raspberry pi pretty easy to set up? Or if you were starting over would you go with something else? I have a windows laptop and an android phone, so that's the extent of what I'm familiar with so far. But Immich does look so promising!

 

Slowly but surely trying to de google my life, but Google Photos is a hard one. I have a kid and seven pets, and I've come to rely on Google Photo's search abilities to actually find anything I want to see in the hot mess of disorganized photos.

I tried a trial of Ente and filled it up to the free limit with pics. It was able to recognize my toddler in THREE photos, no one else. I don't know how many or which photos are backed up because it doesn't seem to show them separate from my un-backed up ones. It doesn't learn to recognize pets as far as I can tell.

I'm too tired to learn to self host just to use Immich, even though I've heard good things, ha.
