Probably any of the ThinkPads I had. They were sturdy and just ran everything I put on them. Second place would be the Dell XPS 13, I like it because it is very small and light, but in the one I have now they already had to replace the motherboard after a month and when holding it with one hand it bends and sometimes does a click on the trackpad, but I don't want to send it in a second time because I normally don't use it like that.

It's like 8 years ago or so, I had the InfinityBook with a skylake processor.

Bluetooth stopped working, send it in then it worked and stopped again, then send it in and it worked and stopped again.

The microphone had broken noises, tested it even under windows to be sure it's a hardware problem.

Discoloration where the hands are left and right of the trackpad.

Plastic bezel around the screen fell off, the tape was bad quality.

Ah I wrote it down last year here:

The thing is that they only need to release the source code to a user of their installer. Also, perhaps they got a special exception from the original author like dynamically linked Linux drivers.

I really wonder if they got any better, I had such a bad time with my tuxodo computer, had to send it for repair twice and replaced it with a used ThinkPad after less than a year.

I also really wonder, they say face recognition and ML categorization happen on the edge. I guess this would drain the battery quite a lot doing it for the 800 GB and it will take forever.

I have around 800 GB of photos from me, my dad and my fiance. That would be $ 20 a month. Ok, still not bad, I don't think I could get it much cheaper on a VPS.

For now what I'm doing is running https://immich.app on my laptop at home with a connected external USB drive. It's not e2e encrypted, just with ssl on https. But other than that it seems to have similar functionality.

I edited the post and added what our doughter wrote about her experience too. She gad a very different view on it compared to me.

 

We went to china town to eat some chinese breakfast. It was very doughy and savoury. The Koreans -where we live now - don't have any specific breakfast dishes, they just eat the same dishes as for lunch and dinner.

Hi, yeah I did yesterday and asked them to put their other Albums on Bandcamp too.

There are several reasons why I don't want a physical CD:

I have no space for it

I don't want to carry it when I move

It's a lot of work to sell it

I need to pay shipment around the world to Korea

The production and shipment creates unnecessary CO2, so it's even bad for the environment

I'm having a backup in a external hard USB hard drive, off site on a Synology at my parent's house, and then I sync the music to my two phones, two laptops and to my server. I guess this is enough ^^

How to buy music? (jemmy.jeena.net)
 

It's frustrating to live in a world where streaming is the main way to consume music. I found this German band from Berlin called "Von Wegen Lisbeth" because of their son "Wenn du tantzt" which has great music and great text: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2JRghbgeYw

So I was thinking, it would be cool to buy the Album so I can listen to it. I normally buy and listen to albums not singles. But where do you buy it digitally? I don't want a CD or Vinyl because I live in Korea and I will need to move and don't want to deal with physical media.

I thought, in the past I found music on Bandcamp, so I went there and found https://vonwegenlisbeth.bandcamp.com but there they only sell their first album which doesn't have the song on it.

On their website https://www.vonwegenlisbeth.de/ they link to a shop where you can seemingly buy all their albums: https://krasserstoff.com/vonwegenlisbeth#merchcat-vonwegenlisbeth-musik butonly on Vinyl and CD, not for download.

Then I thought perhaps I could just pirate it, but the band seems to be too small, they don't show up on The Pirate bay.

I checked Spotify and all their albums are there, but I don't want to pay a subscription every month.

Isn't it weird that you can't buy a digital copy of a bands music? Where do people buy music digital copies nowadays?

 

It's when the Americans already went to bed but the Europeans didn't wake up yet. I'm in South Korea and around lunch even sorting by "New" doesn't give me any new posts, sometimes up to one hour.

 

If you cannot pass on your ownership rights to your purchased games to your children, then you cannot pass on your copyright either, I guess?

 

Germany + Japan = Dance-Metal

 

Good price.

 

I think it's about this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXGoN6xBeD0

 

Are there pancake lenses for the A7C? While in Japan I saw a lot of older japanese guys with some camera which I couldn't identify, it looked like some digital remake of some older camera, but what struck me was that they all had this pancake lens which made the whole package very thin and small.

My A7C is also very compact already but the 35mm 1.8 lens is, while very compact, by far not flat, so I can't put it in my pocket for example.

It doesn't need to be very fast, because I will use it mostly outside in good light.

I really want to use AI like llama, ChatGTP, midjourney etc. for something productive. But over the last year the only thing I found use for it was to propose places to go as a family on our Hokaido Japan journey. There were great proposals for places to go.

But perhaps you guys have some great use cases for AI in your life?
