Yeah . Sounds like horseshit to me to be frank.

I have a udm se, 10 g3 cams, 4k bullet+ai, door entry + cam +ai, couple of the display viewports running all day and a nano hd access point and symmetric gig with intrusion etc turned on. I also have wireguard users connecting in remotely.

No problems with performance whatsoever at this point.

Ok its not enterprisy its just a small business with 20 people but seems fine to me. I run synology servers.

Is nextcloud the good one and owncloud the inferior one?

To see if it’s a ‘shop.

So does this mean if in the eu we get only the default dumb siri and wont get the new upgraded siri? Apple will need to keep old siri working? I never use siri because it it completely useless. It doesn’t understand a word I say.

:)

i do agree the interface can be a bit odd in places, but it takes about 5 minutes to learn, really. Disabling all the plex crap helps a lot so i see only my own content.

As for the tv apps -- yes exactly you already had an android tv box but if you didnt? Then you have to get one, set that up, now you are 2 steps removed from what you are trying to acheive. And what about if you wanted to share your content with grandma or family elsewhere in the country? it's not easy.

Also you just unlocked horror memories of set top boxes etc. I remember years ago i used to run a decent setup with audio, hdmi matrix and various inputs, like a firetv, or a popcorn hour, as well as PC, consoles etc . ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE getting family to be able to use it. they could never get the input right, or the audio right or something. god i forgot how mauch i hate plugging stuff in to the family tv. Thank goodness for smart apps lol! WAF is through the roof. Never thought Id say that.

Now I have a Wiim Pro with ARC HDMI and a Sony android TV. never need to touch anything. all controlled on the tv remote, audio, source and it all just works.

Is there any long form articles on the GIMP UI? I see it time and time again people complaining about Gimps UI. Personally I've used Gimp on and off for like 25 years but i find it hella clunky and I often need to google how to do basic stuff. Also been using photoshop since v3 and I know it well enough to get by.

I see some discussion on the copy paste. Funnily enough i was copy pasting stuff yesterday in Gimp and yeah there is something funky that I couldn't put my finger on. It makes the app feel really janky clicking here and ther doesn't work, renaming the pasted layer. do i click once ? double click? hit enter? I coudln't work it out as the behaviour seemed inconsistent. I also couldn't work out how to get a pasted layer to align to top left. I had to align it manually every time. sigh.

anyway is ther any decent articles that discuss this anywhere that someone could link me?

hard R = ends in 'a' soft R = ends in 'er' ? or am i wrong

thanks for the context! Any of which was completely absent from the article or the comments when I posted originally.

I read the para as saying $16 is so cheap, anyone can afford it! That is nonsense. Also subjective. Closer reading reveals the scenario is a restaurant having picture of its food taken. Presumably the restaurant is making money, and so can justify the expense of only $16. (or paying the photographer, who can then pay for the sub.)

Billy the 12 year old who wants to 'play with photoshop' now and again (as many of us did when we were younger back in the day) can't afford $16 a month for that.

> you're basically part-time "starting out"/"fresh", you most likely can afford it,

yes - you are agreeing with me.. 'starting out/fresh' refers to making money? i.e. professional use. A professional is merely someone who makes money. Frequency is irrelevant.

nobody will ever find it. That's the beauty.

huh. thanks for the info. i did buy a pass about a decade ago so this recent change did not affect me.

there's 2 (or 3) broad groups of people who 'might' use plex. and it seems that neither group can understand the use case of the others which leads to massive confusion.

group 1: somebody just wants to watch a movie they've downloaded. They either double click the movie file and maybe connect with a hdmi to a tv. Advanced group one users might eve use a usb drive / stick and plug it into a TV for computerless playback. Usually only a single user, or users who don't mind doing it 'manually'

group2: has a 'collection' is concerned with the 'library' of content possibly has a nas or media pc that handles playback. Jelly fin works fine here, and these guys who haven't used plex DO NOT understand why people would use plex given all the objections. (i'm including you in this group, as 'the interface sucked' Possibly a technical user that wants more than just a directory of movie files. I'd say usually a solo user or a shared setup on family tvs within the same network.

group3: These are folk who may be technical, but don't want to waste time pfaffing with linux configs etc . The shit really hits the fan here because this group will also likely want to share their library with family and friends, and perhaps use apps on their TV/devices to access the content, from different places. Plex is AS EASY as netflix to setup in this way. You invite your users from within plex. They create a plex account for free and they download an app on their TV or tablet from the app store, Sign in, and start watching. It (your server) tracks users, progress, between devices and everything just works in a nice way, there is basically zero configuration required.

of course there's overlap and this is broad strokes, but I see these issues pop up on these discussion all the time . The comment above that said 'just use jellyfin' is like saying 'just use linux 15 years ago' is on the money. Jelly fin is cool, but it's needs heavy dose of polish and more TV apps. Half the TV's in my house don't have a jelly fin app but they do have a plex app . I don't even need to check what my freinds and family have, plex app availability is a given.

pretty sure you just add the list of networks that should be considered local to the plex settings in the admin page and it's done. Works for me.

> relatively cheap subscriptions (on a month-to-month basis at least), where the cheapest plan is like 20EUR/month or something, even if you just work part-time as some social media "take picture of food for restaurants to post on their social media after editing", you can easily afford a Photoshop subscription,

Sorry what? This is nonsense.

> as long as you have one or two gigs per month which more than covers the subscription already.

ahh there's the rub.

So if you use photoshop professionally/commercially then you can afford to pay for it.

So what about the folk who don't use it professionally and have no access to cracked copies anymore ?

Capture the flag the only expansion of CTF that i know but even if it is capture the flag this still doesnt make any sense. Like Quake CTF?

Someone aid this last time but it should have ben named textpad++

I just turn off desktop icons. Bam! Problem of messy desktop goes away.

What does this do? Do i need it? What was it about the managers running the boards that was hated? Why does this solve that issue? So many questions

It just looks not focused to me. Dude needs to check which lens hes using and check if he has macro mode enabled. Hes using a 17 pro max shouldnt have any problem. The iphone air doesnt do focusing close so taking pics likenthat needs distance

How to locate (almost) any photo using some data sets and free tools online

So is this like phpmyadmin but runs locally and talks to postgres not mysql/maria?

I guess tico fruit is just an asshole. Being sued is usually bad. If you can sue your competitor even better.

I gave up after about a 1/4 It didnt seem to be going anywhere. Is it a shaggy dog story? I didn’t read the punchline.

Isn’t it just their AI llm thing?

Better to proclaim on the internet that you are special and ADD than just doing the work. I mean, who even are you if you dont have an ‘ism of some sort these days? (Almost always self diagnosed)

Is the poster sure or have they checked that the gains and perceived higher level of focus are not just because of the Change? Rather than the actual change? Maybe in a few months a bigger monitor will suddenly work better not because its bigger but because its a change?

Personally i love a big monitor, i use 32” screens (but only 1 at a time) on my Mac, pc and gaming pc. But in reality i do most ‘real work’ on my 16” mbp. And i drop the res to make everything bigger snd nice to read on the laptop.

“USING AI TO GENERATE DIAGRAMS

Click the AI button in the toolbar to copy the Grafly format reference. Paste it into any LLM (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini…) along with a description of the diagram you want. Copy the JSON the LLM returns. Click the Import JSON button () in the toolbar and paste it in. ”

Super user friendly as well! I don’t even understand the instructions on how to use it.

I didnt even notice.

The only way to interact with the account is via a specific variant of an android app ?

Next try CMD+H to hide instead of minimising, like in Windows Land.
