Some of the wording on nilch’s “About” page is concerning to me.

“I run nilch myself in a not-for-profit style”

In the style of a not-for-profit? What does that mean?

“nilch doesn’t really track you”

Nilch doesn’t really track me? Does it kind of track me?

I agree, but my point was that the source ia available to see and assess, which is important to me and why i am using Immich.

I used to use photostructure. I like its appearance and feature set (and the developer is a super nice guy), and really like how it leaves my asset files alone but works with sidecars, but i stopped using it because I only use open source software now.

I currently use Immich* and really like its appearance, features, self-hostability, but dislike how it manages the asset files. Even if i add my assets as an external library, which immich will theoretically not manipulate, the immich apps on iOS and Android will only upload images to a sifferent library that Immich manipulates. I’d have to ignore Immich’s upload feature and roll my own, which is annoying.

*I realize Futo’s license is not really FOSS. Disapppointing, but at least not peopeietary and secret.

If you’re wanting to share all files, many of the methods already mentioned work well. If you’re wanting to share specific files, CopyParty is a good way to go.

Sounds like a nice idea, looks nice. I’ll check it out in more depth soon. Thanka for sharing.

FYI, i don’t see a license on your repo.

Datetime.app is a self-hostable web page with a bunch of time-related tools. I don’t think it has an alarm clock so it won’t help you with this need, but i mention it in case you have other date/time tool needs.

I asked chatGPT:

Good question. I couldn’t find any 1980s song by a solo female singer with the exact lyric “nothing really matters” (or “nothing truly matters”) that matches your description. Here are a few thoughts and possibilities, plus what might help you narrow it down — and a guess + next steps.

💡 What the Searches Turned Up

1. “Nothing Really Matters” by Madonna — but that’s from 1999, so too late for your 80s vibe. (Wikipedia)

2. “Nothing Really Matters” by Gabrielle Aplin — also way more recent (2019). (Wikipedia)

3. “Nothing Really Matters” by Fiona — this one exists, according to Shazam. (Shazam)

   • But Fiona’s “Nothing Really Matters” seems to be a reggae-style song, not a high-energy 80s disco/funk. (Shazam)

   • Also, Fiona’s own career peaked more in the late ’80s rock/pop space — her album “Beyond the Pale” was in 1986. (Apple Music - Web Player)

4. I found no credible matches for an 80s dance/disco track where a female singer sings exactly “nothing truly matters” (in that phrasing).

✅ My Guess

Based on what you remember, it’s possible the lyric is slightly misheard. The Fiona song looks like the closest title match, but the style doesn’t align well with what you described (if it truly is her song).

🔍 What to Try Next

To track it down more precisely, you can:

• Use a song identifier app (like Shazam or SoundHound) the next time you hear it in a store.

• Ask the store (if they play a fixed playlist) — they might be able to check their in-store music list.

• Try humming the melody into a “hum to search” tool (some modern music apps do that).

• Think about other lyrics or fragments: maybe there’s a line before or after “nothing really matters” that stands out. Even a few more words help a lot.

If you like, I can dig into 80s female disco/pop songs with similar-sounding lyrics (bass line, synth, etc.) and send some top candidates. Do you want me to do that?

Asio on the cwtch website itself:

Cwtch /kʊtʃ/

Cwtch (/kʊtʃ/ - a Welsh word roughly translating to “a hug that creates a safe place”) is a decentralized, privacy-preserving, multi-party messaging protocol that can be used to build metadata resistant applications.

…nature of reality is a timeless ocean where every possible bundle of qualia - first person sensory experiences - exists within it? Time doesn’t actually exist, but the illusion of it could…

Isn’t that an oxymoron? If every possible first-person sensory experience exists, then time exists (we experience time).

“Supposed to”? That originated back before desktop publishing existed, when typed communication (as in typewriters) were only monospace, and adding 2 spaces between sentences made text easier to read.

In modern times (as in the past 30 years or so, i think), while adding 2 spaces between sentences might remain as a preference or in a style guide, you haven’t been “supposed to” do it.

Maybe now that markdown is so commonplace, it’ll make a return?

When I experienced the same symptoms, i eventually found out if was because ROCm didn’t support having an AMD GPU as well as an AMD iGPU (iGPU is an integrated GPU, on the motherboard). Once i disabled the iGPU, those symptoms stopped.

l don’t remember how i disabled the iGPU. Might have been in the bios settings, might have been a kernel parameteretc in /default/grub.

If it doesn’t fix your issue, you can just re-enable the iGPU.

What about the trope of lighting up after sex?

Update June 2024: this issue is no longer updated. Progress on federation can be followed from:

• The dedicated federation repository which includes a roadmap

I don’t know about adoption - I’d guess about $1k. But please be prepared for the cost of pet ownership. Wellness health (exam, vaccines, preventatives) will cost from $500 to $1k per year. To prepare for emergency health issues, set aside $1k to $3k per year (FYI: some common emergencies cost way more than this). Then there’s food, toys, supplies, grooming, cleaning, etc. And if you have to get a pet-sitter or leave them at a kennel, you might be looking at $50+ per day.

I hope you can afford to do it. Dogs are wonderful.

I like Tesseract, but haven’t tried the others you mentioned so I can’t compare.

Sounds like you already know what you need to know to host Ollama in a Docker container. Ollama is an LLM “engine” - you can interact with LLM models via a CLI or you can integrate them into other services via an API.

To have a web page chat like ChatGPT or others, I installed OpenWebU. I love it! A friend of mine likes LMStudio, which i think is a desktop app, but I don’t know anything about it.

Yup! Though that’s Adam Sandler doing the bit in the Rob Schneider movie, the original bit on SNL was done by Schneider (originally in 1993 i think). 🙂

Movie quote? I recognize it from a recurring Rob Schneider character on SNL. What movie was it in?

Ah. Thanks for pointing that out, @[email protected]. I was considering an OLED screen to be a modern LCD screen.

I thought that with OLED screens, and a dark mode that supports it, black pixels are actually not backlit, meaning they use less energy. Is that not right?
