The [email protected] community has a lot of information on how to do this. I got into it a couple years ago because I felt weird about google listening in on my lightswitch activity (and to steal TV). Now I have a nice set of services running that have nothing to do with media (and actually help me do more things legally, and in some cases better than before).

There are also software communities like [email protected] to help with tools to manage software better. I am not a fanboy or anything but I like that GrapheneOS allows any app to be installed without network permissions.

Other good ones to check out:

If movies have taught me anything, it’s that this photo should be way more yellow.

Those morph suits from A Scanner Darkly are looking less and less unhinged lately

“Good news, Judas. You’re off the hook! We found a new guy to do it.”

Also, you will need to do some preprocessing of your files before importing to immich. Something like this to fix the metadata. I can’t remember which one I used, because there are a few out there.

Well, you won’t like it. If you have very fast internet and a managed downloader, then you may be able to get all of the files. Google seems to throttle the speeds to make large takeouts almost impossible to download in the limited time allowed.

For this size of download, your best option is to get a subscription to a compatible service (Dropbox, etc.) To transfer the files, which will happen much more quickly than downloading yourself. Then download the files from that service at your leisure, and then cancel the service.

It’s pretty backwards, but it’s really the best option for large takeouts (over 5 gigs or so).

Cmon bro, just one more datum. That’s all we need. One little piece of data and that’s it. Cmon, please?

Like I said, you are nta in the situation. She put you in a horrible, life threatening situation. You acted out of fear and you did no harm. I just think it’s important to recognize the harm that could have been done. Consider it a lesson learned and an opportunity to move forward as a wiser, and perhaps stronger person. Sending you love.

NTA it sounds like she has a very poor sense of humor and doesn’t care who she hurts. Taking of a condom without your partner’s consent is extremely f-ed up. It’s a form of SA.

The only thing you did that rubs me the wrong way is asking about her citizenship as leverage. I understand you were acting out of fear due to a situation she created. Still though, it’s pretty scary to be Latin right now and even more so if you’re not a citizen. Still nta.

It’s called a scribal O and it is absolutely true.

Perhaps they did not fully appreciate the implications of their actions. Much as Oppenheimer observed upon the completion if his life’s peak effort, perhaps the people truly did not know what it was.

I am become irk.

Can Elon hurry up and put a chip in my brain so I can erase this knowledge?

But… you get paid for it, right?

A warrior learns the language from the cries of his fallen enemies.

Wow, so they forgot about Dre?

This is apparently why some modern words like love or come are spelled with an o instead of a u. The o is much easier to read when followed by a v, n, or m, so the scribes changed it sometimes and the spelling stuck.

I just recently learned that this is the historical reason why eyes have dots.

Broken link

I’m more expressing frustration that they have been approached multiple times about fixing the broken blocking by either renaming it muting (what it actually is), or creating an actual blocking feature. The excuses they provide are nonsensical.

Blocking protects users. Why would a federated platform not want to protect users?

Well, the devs are also the major community moderators and admins on the ml instance, which was the largest for a long time.

They still treat it like their private walled garden.

I may be overreaching with my assumption about their motivations, but then again I may not.
