If I’m not going far, not driving or not planning on spending much then yes, wallet stays at home.

Otherwise, if I’m driving then I’m taking my driving license with me (you never know), if I’m making a purchase over the contactless limit then I need to take my actual card with me anyway, or if I’m away for a longer period then I might need cards that I don’t have linked to my phone (like my corporate card - like fuck am I putting that in my phone).

And for all that, I’d rather have a wallet instead of just a loose amalgamation of plastic in my pockets.

Apart from the times that the US applied export controls to encryption software.

You really gonna do the Blades dirty like that?!

Same, I set it up a few years ago and both me and my partner have been using it since then with no issues at all, it’s completely replaced Google Photos for us.

We’ve also set up immich-frame and repurposed an old Google Nest hub to use as a digital photo frame.

You are assuming that they have a personality to begin with.

Personally any game that requires a rootkit in order to play is not a game I’m interested in, from either a gameplay or a security point of view.

There are only two industries that call their customers ‘users’…

Hot take: Nintendo peaked with the Wii.

Well, I’m currently writing a service and frontend, both in C# (Blazor for the UI), and using docker-compose to build and deploy them to a Raspberry Pi running Linux. So not only cross-platform, but cross-architecture as well.

This is not a new thing either. Since .NET Core was released almost 10 years ago, it has supported cross platform development.

Right now none of the native clients support SSO. It is a frequently requested feature but, unfortunately, it doesn’t look like it will be implemented any time soon. As with many OSS projects it is probably a case of “you want it, you build it” - but nobody has actually stepped up.

For web access, stick it behind a reverse proxy and use something like Authentik/Authelia/SSO provider of your choice to secure it.

For full access including native clients, set up a VPN.

Oh fuck me, HOW in like 25 years did I not get that pun?!

We refer to it as kew-bee-cuttle

As a developer myself I’m not sure if I would trust any application to safely handle a configuration that has become invalid due to a breaking change, especially not an app that is still under active development! Better safe than sorry.

Immich has completely replaced Google Photos for me, love it!

My only bugbear is that it is updated very frequently (what a nice problem to have!) which in my case requires a manual once-over of my docker-compose file every time in case there are breaking changes.

Something to note: Tesla has two vehicle APIs, the Fleet API for commercial accounts and the Owner API for individuals. This change currently only impacts the Fleet API.

If you are an individual owner who accesses your vehicle data from the Owner API (usually via a self hosted tool like TeslaMate), this does not affect you. Yet.

Nah, the SWAT would have to arrest themselves.

You might have seen a quest, where if you stream a specific game to your friends you get a free in-game item, but these are not advertisements.

…

Advertising is the practice and techniques employed to bring attention to a product or service. Advertising aims to put a product or service in the spotlight in hopes of drawing it attention from consumers

I have no interest in streaming “quested” games, and whatever deal Discord has done with the developer to encourage users to engage with such games (and by extension the game’s microtransaction economy), and regardless of what they call it, is by definition an advertisement. If you can’t see that, then you are an ad campaign exec’s wet dream. Either that, or a troll.
