> Lastly, the US has got to start eating seasonally.

Fair. But the almonds and alfalfa would like a word, especially since the alfalfa is shipped around the world for others to consume in some way.

So while it's definitely agriculture as a serious source, it's not just the US as the driver of that source.

I take it you didn't read all of this, considering they tried to impersonate the moderators so they wouldn't get caught, set up heartbeats to find out how long they'd live, and used tor/AWS/DO to hide what was being done.

All of that sounds like more than a nothingburger, and much more like a system that is actively trying to conceal what its doing.

They're still doing ocean cleanup, too. Getting the fishing equipment out of the water is a huge improvement.

This is the CPU that I first learned to code on, first in TI Basic (TI-8[1356] ftw) and then Z80 assembler. Crazy to think that the CPU was "old" when I started, and it's still doing good work in those calculators even 20+ years later.

My immediate thought was that someone managed to get an access key, stuffed a ton of data in there, and then was doing a ridiculous amount of egress. That was the only way I could conceivably coming up with anywhere near that much cost.

Thinking that an AI generated image is somehow more efficient to make than a high res photo followed by a print is a bit odd to me.

My high school girlfriend and I played this game all the time; trying to build the pizzas to get the best score was always super frustrating. It always felt like I could be a single pixel off and get a really low score, but I loved building my "empire"

I notice at this time there are no comments about systemd. I figured there would be at least one comment about it and "it does not try to do everything".

Maybe it's just me, but everything about this announcement feels very I, Robot... and not in a good way.

Ugh.

Edit: Yes, I meant I, Robot the film. U.S. Robotics and the like.

New comment by dpcx in "Immich mobile app sync V2"

dpcx — Thu, 25 Sep 2025 18:38:09 +0000

This will be great. I only noticed two issues with the mobile app, and one of them had to do with performance - it would get "stuck" uploading an image to the server, and no amount of waiting would let it complete. So I'd have to restart the app, and it would always start over and check every image that was in the library before uploading would begin again.

The second issue is still related to timestamps from iCloud photos. The date that's on the photo in iCloud is not respected when uploading to Immich, meaning photos tagged from 40-90 years ago show up as being taken today.

dpcx — Mon, 08 Sep 2025 16:30:50 +0000

The only problem I've had with it so far is that the date on photos coming from icloud is when they were uploaded, not the date that the photo was created or even the date that I've marked the photo as being taken. Makes seeing photos from 90 years ago kind of strange.

macOS on arm, you can download the ios app and install it. That's what I did to import my wife's photos.
