Your friends should know that you can see their photos if you wanted to though.
Same is true if they save stuff at Google etc.
who every owns the server can see their media.Unless it has E2E encryption
- Comment on Photo management - storing friends' photos 6 hours ago:
Thats nice but I wish it had E2E encryption.
I don't like that I can see everyone's photos that use my immich server.
Not that I'd look, but I can if I wanted to, and that's why I only use my server for family

- Comment on Is possible to learn to swim, just by reading a lot about it? 1 day ago:
I think the answer is somewhere in the middle, and depends on your definition of "swimming"
Can a grown adult who can stay calm in stressful situations learn swimming well enough from a book so that he doesn't drown the first time he jumps in a pool. Yes
Can everyone do that, definitely not.
It also depends on the activity, you can probably learn bowling from a book good enough to hit the pins and then get better from there.
You could definitely not learn to fly a helicopter from a book.

ODROID allows 4 drives with sata, it's a really nice solution.You could attach even more with using nvme

Very much so, but I do enjoy gross overkill.
I'll build them into a future case then they won't be as overkill

The other HDD I have is a WD Gold, it's definitely the louder of the two, both of them are ~5 years old.
Now that I moved the databases off of them, they are quieter than my work laptop, so they don't bug me.But oh boy, it really did sound like a train yard at one point.

It's 3 SATA power cables yes, plugged into the H4+

It looks like a PSU, but it's actually just a case for the odroid H4+

The one is a Iron Wolf, the other is a WD Gold, both of which are ~5 years old, they were LOUD when I had a database running on them. They are now a lot quieter than my work laptop so they don't bug me anymore.
Thanks for the advice, I really like these solutions I'll definitely look into them

Thanks <3
I'm going to go with the Sovol SV06 Plus ACE , I'm a big advocate for Open Source, so anything that requires proprietary software isn't really a option for me.
I live in a tiny apartment, so my biggest hurdle with getting a 3D printer right now is space.

A lesson I learnt along the way:
HDD's on your desk are loud AF when you're constantly writing to a database

That would be amazing thanks, I've barely worked with Arduino but I just ordered a starter kit to play around with and learn.

- Comment on I've seen hype around the Minisforum n5 Pro NAS but I'm not sure how much is marketing. What does the community think? 1 week ago:
Not sure what it would cost, but it would likely cost double just buying a ODROID H4+ and making your own NAS

You'd ultimately be sacrificing battery size for that Aux jack you hardly use. For most that's not worth it

Resorting to insults really?
3.5mm Aux takes up a shit load of space to connect 4 analog wires. If a phone has Aux it should at the very least be 2.5mm.
It makes no sense to me why you can't just use an adapter.
More battery > Redundant analog cable most people don't use anyway.

Exactly this, that's a lot of space taken up to connect what 4 analog wires?
That's insanity when a AUX to Usb-C converter does the job

For the amount of space a earphone jack takes it really doesn't make sense for them to include it, when you can just use a cheap adaptor cable

- Comment on Bluesky is more open than you think. 2 weeks ago:
I like the wiki definition
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decentralization
Decentralization or decentralisation is the process by which the activities of an organization, particularly those related to planning and decision-making, are distributed or delegated away from a central, authoritative location or group and given to smaller factions within it.Based on this and other definitions I've seen, Bluesky is NOT decentralised.
I struggle to see how a platform of which 99.96% of it's users are controlled by one entity is Decentralised.
