We got a tiny hoodie for the car's gear shift lever.

Drivers? I don't even have the scanner connected to my PC because it's not even necessary. It just scans and saves straight to the disk where I want it (network share).

Nah, nothing abusive, just totally oblivious to others trying to make a move. I need big neon signs.

Depressed. I could have had so much sex, with people who cared for me.

I... needed to read that a second time. Yes.

Marie Kondo approves. The picture has done its job and may retire. Toss it.

Honestly, I'd like to suggest that you get a real document scanner like the Brother ADS1700W. I got one used for less than 200bucks and it was the best purchase I made in several years. It scans double sided in color at about two seconds per sheet, straight to pdf on a network share, no computer involved.

I still have an AIO inkjet (also Brother) but only use that one's scanner for things that can't go into the auto sheet feeder.

Friends help you move.

Real friends help you move bodies.

But your route taught you to research!

Your second-to-last word missing.

This is old news, and perfectly normal for stage work.

YNAB = you need a budget

YNAB is a web app and mobile app. It's beauty is that it helps you look FORWARD, instead of tracking your PAST spending.

It's not much use to see that you spent too much last month, again. Instead, YNAB helps you know what your average expenses are and lets you set aside meaningful amounts for each kind of expense = that's what we call a BUDGET.

Yes, it has a cost. Yes, it's ironic to spend money on a tool to save money. But here's the thing: it really works! For me, it's easily worth the cost.

Congratulations! I think you'll love it. There are some things to set up. Let me know if you have questions :-)

I've commented elsewhere on this page:

Brother ADS-1700W
Tiny,fast, scans double-sided straight to a network share. It’s the most amazing thing I’ve bought in years, literally.

The printer has a web interface where you set up destinations, and I set up a file path there. Separately, on the printer itself, you can set it up to do one action automatically when it detects material in the auto sheet feeder, and I used that so it auto-scans to PDF/A and saves it on that network share.

Then I have Paperless check that path once a minute. So my workflow is literally, drop the paper in the scanner, and 5 seconds later put it in a box, then a minute later I see it in Paperless. It’s bliss.

What are those concerns? Why is it relevant to self-hosting?

Is it like the rumor that the Lemmy devs are pro-Russia or whatever it was about?

Honestly asking, here. Not trying to start a flame war, just want to know whether to bother to care about this.

Google oppice apps are not fast, that's true, but they are blazingly fast compared against Nextcloud or Synology. Only Office 365 can keep up (and is functionally better) - but eh, you know.

I have tried Photoprism but was not as impressed by it as Immich.

That cleaning tank sounds like an Achilles' heel. Is there really no solution to that?

;-)

If you want to tinker with the printer, get a Bambu or Creality. They are cheap, and sometimes really good - but it's often hit or miss on whether your exact unit is fine or a lemon.

If you want something that just works, spend more to buy a Prusa. On a budget? Get a Mini+. Bigger budget? Get a Mk4. Or get a Mk3 used.
