You can get an old version of the software without the features blocked.

On the Fediverse, you can go to a different instance.

Yet.

It’s something like

Help > About > Check for updates

My 7.6.0.3 won’t auto update. Says there are no updates available. I’m trying a manual install.

They can sell colors and themes as DLC! Cosmetics for your home!

I would make sure the firmware can’t be updated. Uninstall the Hue app for sure.

After they make the change, someone with an old Hue bulb should go to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Making this decision retroactive is clearly false advertising and anti-consumer. I don’t really give a shit what their terms of use were.

They can do what they want with their future bulbs. The old ones need to be grandfathered in.

I’m excited for the push this is gonna give Godot. Wouldn’t mind it becoming the mainstream engine.

Yeah, this will insure I never use Unity. But at least they can collect from their existing games.

You do have to turn off battery saver for the background process. Phones tend to not like background processes. That would cause the behavior you’re seeing.

Settings > Apps > App battery usage > Immich > Set to “unrestricted”

Also I have mine set to a ten minute delay, maybe that’s why I haven’t noticed. Maybe try adding a small delay to the load?

(Primarily I wanted a chance to delete photos before they uploaded.)

Immich is working pretty well for me. Even the search does a decent job of recognizing the things in the pictures.

I’m not sure what Google photos has that Immich doesn’t, and I’ve been using Google photos for years.

This is me, laughing at your comment as a bald eagle clutching an assault rifle flies over and shits simultaneously on my head and the idea of public transit.

If you’re a European citizen. They’ll fulfill this request (after 30 days) regardless, but I don’t believe they’re legally obligated to for US citizens.

It’s just easier to comply with EU laws for everyone than it is for them to figure out if you’re a European citizen or not.

Do you have a portable video camera that supports raid 1?

The use case for these drives is always a single point of failure. It’s camera footage out in the field. You have to get it home before you have proper storage.

Do you have a dashcam for your vehicle? Do you have backups before you get the footage home?

Oh, I’m sure they were all doing stuff. It just wasn’t necessarily stuff that’s easy to monetize.

There’s a reason Reddit’s reliability has shot up over the past decade despite ever increasing popularity. Plus there’s all the dumb shit they added like the bullshit awards.

The way to make big money for the past 20 years hasn’t been to sell better mousetraps. It’s been to attract venture capital. Your revenue didn’t matter as much as your size, and your size was determined by your employees and how much you spend.

It’s why Uber, whose business model is entirely skimming off of taxi drivers who provided their own cars, wasn’t profitable…

With the interest rate hikes, the investment money is drying up, and all these places are discovering they actually need to make money from their users now, and all that bloat is now a negative instead of a positive.

Basically we’re all paying the price for the stupid fucking investment bubble that’s existed for two decades. An investment bubble that existed because nobody was at the wheel driving the direction of this economy until now.

And of course the billionaires don’t want to sacrifice shit, so they’re making sure it all rolls downhill to their employees and their customers and doesn’t touch their profits in the slightest.

The content has gotten significantly worse.

Maybe we should find an ad agency and crowd source funds to make slick advertisements for Lemmy and Mastodon. I feel like you should promote a specific instance for each though, and avoid the “join-mastodon” page.

The way the instances are split does not generally make much sense for the user. It’s extremely arbitrary. We all know why, and that it’s not a bad thing altogether, but it’s bad for the user experience. That aspect of federation is not something we should promote.
