It’s comparatively easy compared to what it used to take to do this sort of thing. You only need basic Linux skills to get a full photo sharing system going. Everything can be installed from repositories and there isn’t much setting up to do.

I’m using Docker on a Raspberry Pi with a couple of RAID 1 SSDs attached. I’m running a DNLA server, torrent client, Immich, Webdav server, Pihole, and DDNS updater. It’s all reverse proxied using Traefik. It just chunters away, doing it’s thing. If you are careful about the setup and keep on top of updates, it’s pretty secure.
It’s not for beginners, but Immich is multi-user, so one person can set it up for their whole family and friends to use, share photos etc.


Just a reminder that self hosting is easy and fun. https://immich.app/


Yes, in a nutshell. Tenet looks lovely, but the time consistency is appalling. The physics is also broken, and the whole thing just becomes a mess if you start thinking about it. There are very few consistent time travel films. Back to the Future is good, and the TV series Dark handles it brilliantly.


They are already sucking at Microslop’s AI-encrusted teat. It’s a major UK university, and there used to be a mix of systems, with a lot of really good functional software written in-house. Over the past decade, as they have been retired, they were replaced with MS-based turd-rolled-in-glitter ecosystems that drive me up the wall. The old stuff wasn’t pretty, but it worked and did all you needed and no more. It now feels like some sort of Rube Goldberg machine with fireworks.


I have to use Jira at work. It’s fucking awful.


This is impressive technology which has the potential to benefit humans by having things like robot firemen who just walk into flaming buildings and rescue people.
But who am I kidding? Tech companies will just it to cut jobs in order to enrich themselves and make everyone else poorer.


Humour doesn’t punch down. That’s just bullying.


We have to get lucky every time. They only have to get lucky once.


It tastes like chicken.
The world is changing all right - it’s being slowly drowned in AI slop.
That psychopath needs reporting to the police.
