  • The original story was slightly exaggerated.

    The agreement was that the service would only be enabled within Ukraine mainland. This was accomplished by automatically turning them off any time they left Ukraine mainland. Elon refused to disable or expand the territory limit.

    Which is absolutely counter to United States interests. And it's not like Russian submarines were filled with schools and hospitals. You can't name a better example of a military target.

    But it's not the original story that he turned them off in the middle of the attack.

  • You do have to turn off battery saver for the background process. Phones tend to not like background processes. That would cause the behavior you're seeing.

    Settings > Apps > App battery usage > Immich > Set to "unrestricted"

    Also I have mine set to a ten minute delay, maybe that's why I haven't noticed. Maybe try adding a small delay to the load?

    (Primarily I wanted a chance to delete photos before they uploaded.)

  • Immich is working pretty well for me. Even the search does a decent job of recognizing the things in the pictures.

    I'm not sure what Google photos has that Immich doesn't, and I've been using Google photos for years.

  • I'm already telling people to get out of Florida*. I expect multiple Katrina-level events over the next 15 years. "Florida refugees" is going to become a common phrase.

    Orlando might be more likely to survive than Miami or Tampa, but do you really want to be in the city surrounded by devastation?

    We, as humans, seem to have lost the ability to plan more than 20 years into the future. Florida is still building in areas that are going to be crushed, and the only reaction is from insurance companies.

    We're not trying to prevent it. We're not building any kind of defenses or contingency plans. We're not encouraging people to move out. We're not preventing people from moving in. In fact, we're building new and encouraging people to move IN to Florida. It's full on head in sand.

  • Yeah, the whole "this is THEIR software and we're just a few hobby people" struck me.

    Aren't the Lemmy devs in a pretty similar situation? I wouldn't be surprised if individual instances got more donations than the Lemmy project itself. (And to be clear, I don't expect any of that is a living wage for someone.)

    "Starting from scratch" is usually a pretty naive suggestion for a large project that seems to be functioning well in large scale production.

    I do get that there are problems, especially from a moderation perspective. But that's one scope of a much larger project.

    Pointing fingers seems less productive than pull requests and/or patience. And I'd be surprised if there were other, open software available that has the same functionality outside of the fediverse.

    I know of the issue with decommissioned servers, which has been resolved. I've seen the instances crashing less and less over time. I've experienced the software responding faster and more reliably. So I've seen some amount of progress. The project isn't dead. In fact you can watch what they're doing at their GitHub link. It's very, very active.

  • It's the biggest reason I've never gotten invested in traditional sports.

    I'm not paying $100/year for something I'm barely interested in to not even be able to watch the games I want.

    I just watch League of Legends. I can actually play the game, and it's free to watch with no blackouts.

  • Yeah, there's really nothing wrong with a 50 year old dating a 19 year old. Age is just a number. There's no power imbalance there or expectations. It's perfectly healthy for the 19 year old to get into a long term relationship where their partner is going to be 70 before they're 40.

    Or, maybe, half your age + 7 is a good rule. It's pretty lenient.
