i remember during that time Snapchat was big thing and there was no official Snapchat app only an unofficial one. Eventually Microsoft or Snapchat killed the app. So if you owned windows phone you couldn't interect with anyone else normally

Why is it such a crazy idea that the public should own the means of production?

on paper it sounds legit, but eventually it comes down to who has control of it.

Speaking of USSR, there's going to be responsible person assigned for that place, whether it was collective farm or any manufacutring plant. And everyone who is in that place will have an personal interest in abusing that power. Ordinary workers took whatever they could find to home, it was known that if everything is owned by everyone, therefore it is also mine. I think shared ownership goes against human nature and to live in altruistic and self preserving society would mean to overcome it. When we think of ourselves part of humanity and not part group/nationality/political view or individual maybe we will be one step closer

What android phones do you recommend and why?

Op7pro user here too. Its been 4 years already and at this point im just going to keep using this phone until its unbearable to use. Ive dunked it in river, smashed many back covers. At this point its not about being sustainable or something, but im genuinely interested how long can i withstand replacement. I dont mind having no 5g,since 4g with full bars is pretty fast already. All these phones currently in the market would be very incremental upgrade, unless you're going flagship range which is around 1k. I want to see smaller phones to come back. Sadly, phone manufacturers are pushing foldables, so it very rare to see any smaller than 5.5" phone for sale. If i were to upgrade now, probably id choose asus zenfone 9/10, pixel 8 with all these promissed 7 year updates.

All mixed up

In case anyone want to know why is that. Acid+water = bunch of hydrogen bonds form = heats up and starts to boil. Also most acids are much denser than water, so they sink to the bottom so they spread out and the heat dissipates better. If you put water to acid, it immedialety boils up, it can float on the boiling acid.

If you are not in a tech field, what got you into self-hosting?

The question is not why to start, but when do you stop, lol

I'm working in pharmaceutical production industry and I have started selfhosting few months ago.

I wanted to replace google photos with immich, cause my photo collection approached 200gb and I didn't want to upgrade to 2tb version. My gf also had same problem

Bought second hand mini pc for 100€ to test to see how it goes and if I had decided to go back, i would have sold it.

Initially I was following FUTO guide, but quickly noticed it was too extensive and complex for my setup. I managed to set up immich with reverse proxy, did few mistakes here and there, but when it finally worked, I got hooked. I now have:

  • local backups to external drive (borg-web-ui docker)
  • ntfy. To send noticiation to my phone after backup had finished
  • diun. To notify when docker update is available
  • dockgee. docker management
  • tailscale. Remote access

All of it comes gradually, I'm tinkering with home assistant vm now.
