I honestly thought it was common knowledge that these things were essentially free labor for training AI.

I am a huge fan of immich, been running it for quite a while, it started as just phone photo backup but it’s good enough that I’ve made it my primary photo repository (fully backed up of course). I will absolutely pay for a license but count me as one who doesn’t really like the terminology used.

I would happily put a donated or supporter badge to show off, but the unlicensed just feels a bit wrong. I have no trouble paying for software, especially as useful as immich, but in the enshittifying world we live in, such language gives one pause.

no shit, I feel most people can function in just about any framework, so long as everyone knows what they are building. I've seen agile (and other frameworks to be fair) as the 'solution' to missing requirements too often. Sure we can get to work without them, but to what end?

it’s like we have all watched these dystopian future movies and instead of heeding their warning, we all said “hold my beer”.

Ha! This is a glorious future we’re living in…

Oh, I’m totally kidding, it would be soul crushing (crusher?) to hear her voice coming from these nightmares.

This is not the AI I was expected after growing up with Star Trek. I’m trying to picture just what horrors the replicators would come up with if hooked to this abomination.

Then the other clowns go and steal scarjo’s voice instead of Majel Barrett. What a future we’re building here…

I have no opinion on the Star Wars/Dune debate but that is one fantastic comment. Kudos to the author, brought me quite a smile.

Just like their name, it’s just a slogan. They wrap themselves in flags and bibles and folks fall for it every time.

[–] 4grams@awful.systems 1 points 6 months ago

Duh, they want to be hardcore.

Not exactly reliable and less than easy rma process.
