I don’t think you’re in the wrong to say that code nobody has reviewed has not proven safe, and a brand new project (of any kind) is not proven reliable. A brand new big project that’s purely vibe coded is every red flag of unsafe and unsustainable.

Yeaaah not to mention Immich already exists and is proven software.


Yes exactly, my potentially hot take is that twenty years from now we’ll look at immutability as the tipping point that sent Linux mainstream on desktop.


I think Fedora Kinoite is the best distro for someone coming from Windows due to KDE’s flexibility and similarity to Windows and it’s immutability. Default Ubuntu is great for people familliar with MacOS, and it can even be themed to be basically indistinguishable.
Signal is more like WhatsApp, Element/Matrix is aiming to be more like Telegram or Discord.




Unless you’re driving a vehicle from the 20th century, the car itself is going to be tracking significantly more information than even the most nefarious possible use of something in the picture.


Is this voice assistant something I can install on Android? I didn’t realize there was any alternative to Google or Siri (or Bixby).


Well except they’re not asking poor people are they? They’re asking everybody. And it’s just an ask. If you don’t want to accommodate the request then you don’t have to, but going on the internet and publicly discouraging people from advocating for the needy just because they’re wealthy is not helping anyone, especially the needy.


Yes exactly it’s about their power to influence


There was a Ted Talk a while back (I can’t remember who) where they said “I have always wanted to give a Ted Talk… but when I got selected to do this I realized that what I really wanted was to say I had given a Ted Talk”. Meaning they want to be known as someone who had given a Ted Talk, not actually go through the process of writing and delivering the Talk.
People who write open source code do it because they like the process of writing, just like an author enjoys writing books. LLMs are for people who just want to be able to say they have written a book. People who slop-code aren’t actually interested in learning how to code. Which is a fine toy for them to play with, but not sustainable (or reliable for others to use).


Yes exactly and I always consider Steam (and to a lesser degree the Kindle ecosystem), which make it obvious to me that interoperability and convenience are something consumers are willing to pay for.
everybody needs to be on their best behavior for the next few weeks ok

Nothing will change until we can get the pro-climate change people out of power, and if that means having “conversations” about the price of eggs and healthcare during election years then the reasonable strategy for fixing climate change seems to be talking about the price of eggs and healthcare.


50 upvotes and yet half the comments here are “it worked for me OP must be using it wrong” and the other half are "Using Plex is worse than bombing Palestinian children "


Fedora has two immutable distros KDE (Kinoite) and GNOME (Silverblue) and both are excellent and very stable.


I’ve seen that but it’s a weird vibe coded app and doesn’t actually work


ShelfMark is the go-to option now. It’s also far better than Readarr was and works seamlessly with both Prowlarr and Anna’s Archive.


I think CWA is the most robust option out there. BookLore was vibecoded and behaved in the typical weird/unexpectedly way vibecoded apps tend to. I haven’t tried the Fork of it, but CWA checks nearly all the boxes and is actively developed.
I’ve played around with Lumo… it uh, generates some text.
Maybe I’m missing the point of why someone would pay for that?
