Come le BigTech vedono le vostre foto
  • Hi from All! I've been running Immich alongside my usual Google Photos to make sure it does a good job before making the switch. A year ago I would have said no. Nowadays I think it's a great alternative for some, if you're a bit tech savvy. Perhaps someday it'll offer something like Ente, which I have also heard great things about.

  • Hey Lemmy give me an album to listen to
  • Our musical tastes seem almost perfectly aligned, so I'll try and throw out a few curve balls:

    1. AJR - pretty corny, but fuck if almost every song ain't a bop.
    2. The Districts - A Flourish and a Spoil
    3. Mansions - Dig Up the Dead
    4. Stop Light Observations - oRANGE.
    5. Disco Elysium Soundtrack has been my go to of late when I don't want lyrics cluttering my head.
  • What higher/specialized ed do you have? How'd it help you get/keep your job?
  • Masters in Architecture. Required to become a licensed architect. Almost every facet of the job can be done without a degree/license. Most of my coworkers only have a bachelor's, if that. You typically just get paid more and can get more responsibilities (and, by extension, liability) with a license.

  • Selfhosted alternative to google keep/onenote/evernote/goodnotes?
  • Been using Logseq since February and it's been a game changer. My only gripes are a) inability to access via browsers, and b) lack of a quick note function. Sometimes I still use Keep to jot something down and transfer later. Logseq spends a solid 5+ seconds syncing upon opening, which can feel like an eternity when trying to quickly log something.

  • Concerns Raised Over Bitwarden Moving Further Away From Open-Source
  • It's not open source, but I got a lifetime license for Enpass over a decade ago and it's done everything I've ever needed it for. I think stacksocial occasionally has new lifetime codes for sale. I like the idea of Proton Pass as others have said, but it feels a bit like putting all my eggs in one basket, which is a mistake I already made with Google before (context: I use Proton for email). I think Keepass is the next best option if dedicated to staying FOSS.

  • Webflow says 2TB of bandwidth is worth $1,250 per month
  • Visual designer for websites. There are many others like it. I used webflow for multiple projects and really enjoyed it. Haven't touched it for a couple years though. Once I ran out of commercial projects to use it for, I couldn't afford to keep it for personal use.

  • In a sly move, Microsoft has removed the online help page that shows how to switch to a local account on its Windows 11 operating system.
  • First I'm hearing of CachyOS, very interesting! Have had my eye on Zorin, personally, as it seems like a pretty clean transition from a life of Windows. Haven't looked at how it does with games.

    Can't quite get past the hump of needing Autodesk and Adobe software to be functioning flawlessly and easily accessible. A VM might suffice but that also sounds a little clunky and need to test it out.

  • Why Do You Pirate Music?
  • I like the idea of using spotdl and yt-dlp but my eyes gloss over as soon as I see that there is no GUI. Lidarr kinda sucks but it gets me pretty close to what I need. Wish I was more comfy without a GUI but don't really have the time to get the hang of it. So it goes.

  • Renters' hopes of being able to buy a home have fallen to a record low, New York Fed survey shows
  • Lived in NYC and every time rent rose to where I couldn't afford it, I would have to blow my savings relocating. A few years ago I instead used the money to gtfo of the state entirely. Love that city but god damn if it isn't a huge trap.

  • Deleted
    Foundry VTT licence bypass?
  • Not aware of any cracks. I use the felddy image on my Unraid setup and the first window on a fresh install asks for the license. Same goes for when I run locally on Windows. I'm sure there's a crack out there, but I'm not aware of it.

    All I can offer is my full endorsement of Foundry. It's worth the money. If $50 is a bit steep at the moment, I think they do offer a small discount with an anniversary sale each year. Not sure when that is exactly.

    Switched from paying Roll20 an annoying monthly fee and it's more than paid for itself now. There is even a tool floating around to export active Roll20 games for use in Foundry. I remember it being pretty inefficient, but better than starting from scratch.

  • Architect here. How can I be the most helpful?

    I am a registered architect. As an active contributor to one of the most damaging industries to our climate (construction & building systems), I often daydream about pivoting careers into something more productive for the planet. I'm not talking about stuff like green washing or ~LEED accreditation~. Even sustainably-focused jobs are hard to come by and usually pretty regionally specific. Architects have a broad set of skills, and it's not always clear where I can take those skills and put them to better use.

    Any thoughts/insight would be appreciated as I hop into my mid-life crisis before 30.
