Just run both Google Photos and Immich on your phone. Open Immich once a week to sync all your recently taken photos.

There was a time I was worried about them doing this (during the touchbar Macbook era) but I think the Mac is once again viewed by Apple as extremely important. I think it's more likely we see a split of the iPad line in the next few y

Mozilla should start exploring a subscription business and tout its continued support for the full uBlock Origin among other extensions. I would pay a small amount annually to support its development and I bet I'm not alone.

This is how I use them but you have to admit that this assumes 3-4 things about a user just to save them the hassle of supplying two factors at login time. It's also unclear to users if passkeys can be migrated from one password manage

I am a big user of the multi-account containers extension. It is nice to keep banking in one container, Amazon in its own container, social media in its own, and so on. Syncing across device and always reopening a certain site/domain i

Physical disks were one of the last differentiators that consoles had. 20 years ago, you could buy a game, take it home, put it into the console, and begin playing straightaway. Now it has to be installed first to storage, which of course t

If I were Sony, I would worry just as much about the people who bow out of playing games altogether, or just retreat into retro games especially with all the new Android handhelds targeting them.

The problem with the physical media for today's consoles is that it is the game in name only. The version on the disc is quickly outdated by launch day patches, follow-up patches, add-on content, etc. I do think there is a market for a

My only disappointment with this release is that the beta version of workflows does not have the ability to sort photos into albums by face detected (yet). That’s what I’ve been waiting for as both Google Photos and Ente support smart album

This is not end to end encryption. There is nothing stopping you (or Hetzner) from accessing your family’s data, as one the disks are mounted to a host they are decrypted and available for use. True E2EE would be that all data on those disk

You can use something like Immich Public Proxy to only expose the /share path of your server and keep the main /api path that has everything else behind VPN

Yeah Immich and Ente are going for two different use cases. While Ente can be self hosted, I view it as more of an escape hatch if they ever enshittify vs how I would start off using the service. I like not having to manage ingress for a ph

Valve has an incentive to keep being benevolent because consumers have the option of using other stores on the same hardware. If you have invested into Sony platforms and games, you're stuck. You either write it off and move now, buyin

From a business perspective, I understand this. The physical games sections of most retailers are pitiful these days - take a walk down the PS5 aisle in Target or Best Buy for example. They also have a need to shore up margins if they want

The Macbook Pro jump is probably the most meaningful, as it now puts the 16GB/1TB configuration of the 14" at $1999. That is now more than a Framework 13 Pro with Intel Core Ultra 3, 16 GB/1TB, whereas the Framework looked mo

The 2013 Steam Machine is as different from this device as it could possibly be. Proton didn't exist back then and Steam Input was still in (relative) infancy.

Our team at work uses all three major public clouds and our Google Account Team is by far the worst of the three. Nothing like having to explain the same problem I’m having from the start again on every monthly cadence call because they don
