Thanks, I use darktable, but will give it a try!

I’ve updated my OP with some interesting new details!

Thanks, I’ll give Digikam a try!

I’ve updated my OP with some interesting new details!

Thanks. I use Immich, but when I tagged a photo then saved it back to my computer, the geotagging was gone (but HDR was still intact). It’s as if it saves it to its own database, and I can’t find any settings to confirm.

as the politician voted against an amendment that would have forced the Justice Department to release the Epstein files.

When I see someone voting AGAINST releasing the Epstein files, I can only make the assumption that they are in it.

Seeing that we are talking about an already horrible person, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if Cruz is trying to cover his ass.

Well, none of the phone’s I’ve owned in the last 5+ years have been very “root friendly”, so I haven’t rooted since then.

But it gives you a ton of (not risk-free) options to tweak your system. Shizuku is a cool alternative, but it is limited by comparison.

I actually really like TrackerControl, but use Adguard instead for the same purpose (can’t use them at the same time, unfortunately, since they both work through a local VPN).

The difference, though, is that Blocker stops apps from even loading the component that would “call home”, where TrackerControl and Adguard try to block those connections after they’ve been sent by the app.

Yes, you kind of accomplish the same thing, but I would love to be able to prevent apps from using these SDKs in the first place :)

There’s a clear pattern with violence in the States.

Quick, find a way to blame Obama, Biden, or immigrants! /s

I’m not looking to delete apps, just stop certain components within apps.

For example, my banking app uses the Google Ads, Google Firebase Analytics, and Adobe analytics, and I’d like to disable those from running without uninstalling the banking app.

Basically, it disables the bad parts of an app :)

I used to do this when I was into rooting and custom firmware, but I really don’t want to go full root with my current phone.

It’s not permissions that I want to block/stop, but actual receivers, services, SDKs… components within apps. So, something like the analytics services can be disabled, rather than “blocked” like using an adblocker.

I used to do this when I was rooted years ago, and it was great!

Well, shit. It’s strange how so many places recommend Blocker when using Shizuku, but it really needs Root to be useful.

Synology. Whatever is in your budget.

Yes, they’ve done things to piss off the community, and sure, a DIY build is going to give you more control and powerful hardware.

But you can get support (though Synology or the Internet communities of users), and if any family member ever needs to take it over, it’ll be easy for them to pick up and manage.

The only ones who would harm her over this would be other Republicans. I wish she would let that sink in, because she’s spent her career propping them up.

I haven’t looked at the other links, but the first study was funded by WPLab, Inc.

WPLab, Inc just so happens to run https://www.preventautism.org/, so I can already see several biases at play, which could influence the conclusions drawn by such a study.

Yes, when you mount the external library (when setting up docker), you can set it as read-only. 👌

on charges of making a false statement

Trump had made no less than 50,000 false statements, so what’s this double-standard?

More importantly, it seems that Trump, as president, is quite literally going after anyone he doesn’t like. From comedians to former FBI directors.

Why is this OK?

My use case:

I use a Synology NAS to backup my photos/videos. On mobile, I use the Synology Photos app for 100% of the backups, because it’s been 100% reliable for me over the years.

I basically run Immich in read-only mode, and specifically for searches. The contextual search is incredible, and after putting it side-by-side with a very expensive Windows software that uses local AI search, it came out on top… no contest.

So in that sense, I’m very happy!

Hey, maybe every American should put Trumpstein lawn jockeys in their yard! 😂

This is hilariously on point.

That’s some sleazy bullshit right there!

Also no native Linux app so I could only use it on the app on my phone.

You can use their web interface to view/control certain models on your local network: https://support.reolink.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003981973-How-to-Remotely-Access-Reolink-Cameras-NVRs-via-a-Web-Browser/

I have the Reolink Home Hub (doesn’t support all my Reolink cameras, but enough), and I’m able to use the browser interface on Linux no problem. Of course, the app is more feature rich, but that depends on your needs, too.

I’m sure you can even access this interface through the net via remote proxy or something similar.

but in a recent firmware update they disabled the http and https capabilities

Yeah, they suck with their firmware. One of my cameras was locked out… literally unable to view, playback, or control it until I got in touch with Reolink tech support so they could force an update through. It took several days and a lot of effort to clear that up. Not cool!
