They don't care about you. They don't even want you as a subscriber, you're a pain in the ass. Most people are too tired and not tech savvy enough to pirate. A lot of those will eventually do something else, too, but they can cram ads into the streams faster than those people can find the wherewithal to leave.

In short, this is profitable, and no amount of raging will make it less so. Take care of yourself, but don't pretend you're making line go down.

He's clearly not aiming at you, he has the rifle at rest because he recognizes a noncombatant.

Race is relevant because it's the point of the joke (he's racist, but his racism is foiled). Gender isn't relevant. The picture is what makes this dude a lunatic. If I saw this shit and I worked with him I'd forward it to HR with the note "hey just file this one away, you don't need to act on it right now but you're definitely gonna want this receipt sooner or later".

They mainly want to know two things:

  1. Is it increasing or decreasing? This requires them to ask you multiple times over the course of treatment or multiple visits. For these purposes, the first number you choose isn't that important. Just stay consistent and let that first decision anchor your later ones. But,
  2. Can they diagnose you based on pain severity? They have a range in their heads that corresponds to "appendicitis", for example. If they tell you in advance whether you should be saying "8" for that, they'll bias the diagnosis; you just have to pick one. If they have a diagnosis in mind and the number you choose is wildly off, they may discard that possibility and look for a closer match for diagnosis. If you pick something slightly outside that range, they'll do more tests and exams and ask you more questions to see if the discrepancy is meaningless.

Bottom line, it's fine to choose whatever feels right in the moment. Probably stay away from 10's; a person with a 10 pain is probably unable to answer the question. You can answer "1" if they're examining the wrong body part; if you broke your wrist and they're prodding your leg, a 1 for your leg is totes fine, but make sure to give an answer that feels right when they poke your wrist.

(Besides, if pain severity is a factor in diagnosis, they can probably SEE you're in pain. People in a lot of pain flinch, and sweat, and stutter, and move gingerly, and protect the extremities that are in pain. They know that. They can see it.)

If you thought she meant "certain death" why would you go in

It's less that "white people never say the N word" and more that you absolutely should not be following someone if you believe they're as racist as that.

I would want them to let me choose the name.

I'm not saying Buddhists never have ambitions, but they're definitely doing buddhism wrong if they do.

I highly doubt they did anything remotely like "hacking" the seed phrase. I don't care for cryptocurrency, but I hate cop bullshit even more, so here's my 2 cents.

or just found it written somewhere in the house?

this one.

A seed phrase is just an encoding of a long binary number which can be used to derive the secret key. Trying all the possibilities probably isn't possible, and I think it's also unlikely that they found a way to weaken it. What they probably did is find it and type it in. They DID raid the dude's house, where he was probably keeping a copy of it.

"Twenty or thirty years ago, police did not hack, that was not a thing that they did, but that's very much part of the bread and butter of a modern police force nowadays," Mr Uren said.

LMAO fuck off with this. I don't doubt they have some tech guys on hand. I don't think they have access to the quantum computer you'd need for this.

Well did he smash the CD insert? He should do that. That would definitely make the whole thing worthwhile.

Thank god that was gonna bug me

Best I came up with is "Ataris" but I'm pretty sure that's not a Bible

 

I'm an immich user, switching from a standard u/p login to an SSO-based login.

I've tested the SSO login successfully, it seems to work, and I'm not having any issues with that.

However, the account generated by SSO login has a different email address and identifiers from the account I created earlier. I don't want to start from scratch with my photos, as I've spent countless hours updating metadata.

I think I need one of the following:

  1. a supported, tested way to merge an account with another account. I don't know if this is going to be similar to the "partner sharing" feature. I don't want to simply share the photos, I want to have full control over them; including, if I delete a photo, it's gone forever.
  2. a tested way to manually update the database to change all identifiers over to the new account
  3. a way to login to the existing account via my SSO portal. I can create any SSO user I want, for example.
  4. a way to export the entire library with metadata and re-import it to the new SSO account, structured exactly the same way. Ideally this would also restore anything ML has done with my photos, but it's not a disaster if I have to wait for ML to recreate what it already did in the new account.

Does anyone have information on how to achieve one of the above?

Followup question:

  • can anyone confirm with certainty that metadata changes I made in immich have been saved in the image files in /library/upload/*? I am already making backups (both pg_dump and the entire contents of the library), but it would be nice to know where the metadata is actually kept, in case I have to do DR.

I've been on Tidal for years, but it's frustrating to use for lots of reasons (they only pay their artists slightly better than Spotify, streaming services are flaky, works poorly with my DLNA home speakers). I'm looking for something I can selfhost with the following features, and I would appreciate any suggestions in this direction:

  • integrates with downloading services (nzbget and qbittorrent; or better yet prowlarr)
  • has a suggestions/radio/mix feature, or integrates well with something that does. I currently use jellyseerr for other kinds of media, so something in that vein.
  • has a mobile app which lets me download all the tracks I want, or integrates with one that does. Big bonus points if the mobile app can play to DLNA speakers.

A bit about my lab:

  • Proxmox-based, lots of VMs and containers on 2 different cluster nodes. Lots of underprovisioned RAM in the cluster. Nodes run Fedora and I'm partial to quadlets, but I can convert anything to a quadlet if I need to.
  • Airvpn port tunneling is available to me.

TIA!
