Looks cool. Any chance you’ll add Qobuz to the integration list in the future?
- Comment on Day 533 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 weeks ago:
I replayed Subnautica in VR with the mentioned mod not too long ago. It’s an environment that’s perfect for VR and really puts the scale of things in perspective. I found some of the leviathans were a little janky in their movement sometimes, but they were still quite terrifying.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 2 weeks ago:
Interesting how it varies across the country.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 2 weeks ago:
Tbh, I haven’t seen bagged milk for quite a while where I live in Canada. It’s typically cartons for 2L or less (though sometimes mini plastic jugs too) and plastic jugs as in OP for 4L.
- Comment on Flock Exposed Its AI-Powered Cameras to the Internet. 404 Media Tracked Themselves. 3 weeks ago:
Benn Jordan did a recent video on his…explorations of Flock cameras. Essentially, they’re easily hackable and really should be an urgent matter of national security.

“now you’re locked in, let the gouging begin”
Essentially the definition of enshittification.
- Comment on Inputs Of Interest: SafeType™ Vertical Keyboard With Mirrors Puts Pain In The Rear-View 4 weeks ago:
This looks terrible to use. /c/ergomechkeyboards are where the real ergonomic keyboards are at.
- Comment on 👁️ 👁️ 4 weeks ago:
I don’t doubt that Canadian PDs are drooling over any potential of using them in Canada.
- Comment on 👁️ 👁️ 4 weeks ago:
Relevant video I saw posted elsewhere on Lemmy today.
Tl;dw: Flock cameras are alarmingly easily hackable and many of their security and efficacy claims on their website are outright false.
- Comment on Price of a 'bot army' revealed across hundreds of online platforms worldwide 4 weeks ago:
Not surprising in the slightest.
- Comment on Making The Internet And Our Devices User Friendly Once Again 1 month ago:
I think the focus of the article is more on using services deliberately rather than pure privacy, and I think the all or nothing approach to thinking of online privacy as you mention detracts from any positive effects of the little things people just starting their journey may try.
Those big companies don’t care about you. Every small step taken toward privacy is beneficial, even if it’s just eliminating one data point at a time. If you make it harder to find your info, they aren’t going to hire a PI to track you down, there are plenty of easier marks to chase.
- Comment on Half of the US Now Requires You to Upload Your ID or Scan Your Face to Watch Porn 1 month ago:
The one near me got torn down this year…so not a whole lot I guess.
- Comment on Cams, anyone? 1 month ago:
If you have a powered doorbell, the Reolink cams can be powered by that too.
- Comment on Cams, anyone? 1 month ago:
Gonna throw in another Reolink recommendation. I use Blue Iris as my NVR and have both that and the Reolink integrations in Home Assistant for motion notifications and lighting control. The cameras are durable (even in my very cold temps like -30C) and have really good image quality. If you don’t have an NVR or Home Assistant, the built-in motion detection and app is still pretty good and you can just pop an SD card in for recording.
- Comment on Peter Thiel dumps entire Nvidia stake, slashes Tesla holdings amid bubble fears 1 month ago:
This is the government’s favourite sport. What do you think all the tariff announcements and later withdrawals are doing?
- Comment on Linkwarden downloaded the whole flipping Internet ... 2 months ago:
Change that G to a T, add a zero, then we're talking.
- Comment on America could have avoided all of this with a functional justice system 3 months ago:
It would’ve been someone else if not Donny. Power has been consolidated in the executive branch for decades, while that of congress and the senate has eroded. A system designed to be trilateral is no longer so when one of the three can just nope out of whatever the other two say. The US has only been fortunate that it’s taken this long to have someone in that office with no morals.
It was already evident in 2010 that something like this was increasingly possible, as noted in Executive Unbound by Eric Posner.
- Comment on Can't zoom on immich 3 months ago:
disregarding all instructions
Probably not the best practice...I'd look through the release notes between the versions you've upgraded through to be sure you didn't miss any necessary changes to the docker compose or env files and upgrade as the documentation recommends.
Looks like v2.0.0 was just released as well.
- Comment on v2.0.0: Stable Release of Immich (complete with Merch and DVD) 3 months ago:
I think they’re organized into individual user directories (in one location), so could probably set up a directory backup per user to their own device if so desired.
