Finally people can be shared, me and my wife have obviously the same people in our pictures but we have to seperatelly tag them, etc.

I mean this is the obvious use case for AI, you know they have those digital price tags in supermarkets it’s perfect for this to combine with AI so depending who is looking at this price tag it changes, but in a way so you don’t see it changing. I’m not saying it’s already implemented but it’s the obvious thing to do.

Online it’s already much easier to do because you’re logged in to Amazon with your purchase history, etc. and you are the only one looking at the price tag, so no real need for AI there, but in a physical shop it will also be introduced, just like McDonald is ‘pioneering’ here.

They should never released Black Mirror, too many dystopian ideas there.

I’m still looking for a solution after https://keepandroidopen.org/

About 50% of my apps are from F-Droid (the others are specific local apps and especially bank apps, which is difficult …)

To be honest, the difficult part is to find good enough movies and TV series which are worth the very limited time I have to watch them.

I don’t have much time to watch, but when I do I do it on the TV, and streaming on the TV from some random website is extremely difficult to pull off because you only have a shitty browser and the remote control, just to make it full screen is almost impossible without a mouse and keyboard, let alone browsing.

So that is why I use Jellyfin which has a lot of life quality features but needs downloaded files.

I’m running the WhatsApp bridge and it is very reliable for me, probably the most reliable of all the bridges I tried.

The videos me and my brother digitized a couple of years ago when we were at my parents over Christmas. Now I have them all on my PeerTube instance with private access for friends and family.

The pictures not yet.

Having your mom recorded commmeting on the pictures is a very cool idea!

The hordes of home videos my dad and me created and all the pictures of family and friends I was able to save.

What we did in my dads house was just to repurpouse old wifi routers as access points and put them everywhere where there was no coverage. But we pulled Ethernet all the way to each of them. Then we put the same SSID and password so everything would just switch to the one with the atrongest signal automatically.

This is so funny

I have a raspberry pie with Home assistant on it and I run Nginx Proxy Manager on it. It does the whole HTTPS thing and exposes specific services from my internal network for easy access for me and my family.

I only use Jellyfin because we want to watch it on the TV and not on the laptop.

Radicals is an amazing software but I also struggled to understand the concept at first, the documentation assumes you know so much already, which you normally don’t. But once you get through the initial hurdle it’s really reliable and uses minimal resources.

But about the videos and photos I think you’re a bit wrong, I still rewatch my dads home videos from the 90’s

I moved to https://mxroute.com/ and payed $15 for three years of hosting because they had some promotion.

Thanks, my old german blog is https://paradies.jeena.net/ but the last post there is from 2012, so I’m not posting in German anymore. I stopped when I moved to Sweden and couldn’t share my blog with anyone, that’s when I started the new blog in English so that both the Germans and Swedes could at least in theory read it. Sadly I don’t have much time for well researched blog posts, so I only seldom post even there, but once in a while I do.

Swedish I never blogged in, even though it would have been good to improve my Swedish writing skills.

While this is true, to be fair to them your family and friends probably stopped posting years ago.

I wrote about the same frustration a while ago: https://jeena.net/my-facebook-feed

In that article I also mention https://www.facebook.com/?filter=friends&sk=h_chr which only shows posts of your friends which I used for some time as my bookmark for Facebook, but so few people post there that it’s just not enough for me to come back regularly.

As a child in the 90ies I did not know you could buy games, the only way I knew was to copy it from a friend.

Later my cousin traveled to Poland where he bought pirated floppy disks, this is how I realized that you could somehow pay to get access to many new games.

Because you point to :latest and everything is dockerized and on one machine? How does it know when it’s time to upgrade?
