Meanwhile in reality installing Nvidia drivers is literally just a checkbox in a Drivers menu in system settings. Unless you are using Arch or something.

Yes, what's your point? Airplane mode turns off the cellular, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. You can then turn Wi-Fi and Bluetooth back on if you choose to, which only leaves the cellular network disabled.

I don't know your threat model, but if airplane mode is not enough, then I wouldn't trust wrapping it in tinfoil either, as that would be less reliable. There are of course better ways than both of these methods. Like leaving your phone home.

I've never had a phone that keeps Bluetooth or Wi-Fi on when enabling airplane mode, but sure, if yours does that then of course also disable them separately.

Airplane mode is supposed to stop any radio transmission from your device. GPS does not transmit anything, so there is no reason to disable it.

So does, you know, airplane mode

Why? Does it offer a better experience than self-hosting Ente?

I only used Ente so I'm genuinely asking. When I open the Immich website, I am met with a big warning:

Expect bugs and changes. Do not use it as the only way to store your photos and videos!

Which doesn't look to me like something I'd want to rely on, compared to Ente which is stable and feature complete.

I use Nvidia on Linux for over a decade now, never had a problem. Using the official closed source drivers. I don't know if AMD is better because I never tried it myself, but in my experience Nvidia is working as well as on Windows.

This is on desktop, I don't know about laptops. My experience is also limited to gaming, maybe it's bad for CUDA or something.

Not saying it doesn't happen, but I'm triple booting Windows 10, Windows 11, and Linux for a few years now with GRUB, and Windows never broke it.

***Workaround only works for checking a hardcoded list of apps, and can't check all your apps

Informative article, but damn the clickbait

Yeah self-hosting is not hard if you are technical, but the average person won't even entertain the idea.

I haven't tried Immich, I'm currently happy with Ente, and I'm planning to move to Immich (and see how it compares) once it's declared stable by the developers.

I suggest Ente Photos instead of Immich, if self-hosting is not something for you. It's also more feature complete, as Immich is still actively being built and bugs are expected.

You are driven by hate. Rowling is not going to get any more "enabled" than she already is with her bottomless pit of money. If you are truly an ally, suggest better media to support, rather than being combative and alienating everyone in the proces.
