Maybe try travel? Bring your laptop / deck / switch so you can game on the road. But do it from some place new. If you can work from home, maybe try moving around on short term rentals. Doesn't need to be anything exotic, could be the next town over.

Anything to break up your routine a bit. Don't look at it as a means to an end. Try and enjoy the journey itself

Open source alternative to Adobe Lightroom

3. doesnt have time, unassigns themselves

Because someone else took over, as the person even says in a comment.

4. Priority gets set lower

Priority got set back to the priority it was at 4 minutes before. The priority being changed was clearly a mistake.

5. A guy wants to work on it
6. That guy doesnt work at Mozilla anymore

OK?

7. The bug went from priority P5 to P1 and doesnt block anything anymore

It got retriaged. There are processes for this and it's totally normal.

This is really bad. Especially as it seems like not that big of a change.

No it really isn't bad at all. And it's a massive change, the linked bug is a meta bug which means it is simply used to track the actual work. See all the bugs in the depends on section? That's where the real work happens and there has been a ton of progress made.

Also believe it or not, lots of discussion happens outside of bugs. You really have no idea what is going on just by looking at bug activity.

For that use case, go syncthing. Nextcloud would be overkill. I run both, I use syncthing for my personal files and Nextcloud when they should be shared with others.

I don't hate Apple in terms of privacy. I hate Apple for a myriad of other reasons. Mostly related to locked down ecosystems.

Certain events like marathon swimming and triathlon can't be done in a pool.

Ah, yeah I guess you can't browse your photos using a file system view. I just meant that it won't automatically reorganize your pictures on the file system.

However you can create albums via an API call. You could probably write a script that adds each folder to an album or something.

It definitely can, it's called an "external library". I just added my entire photo collection and use Immich as a frontend to view them all

Yeah that's fair.. Bad example :p

It's like a vicious cycle:

1. People are tech illiterate
2. Tech companies design things for the lowest common denominator.
3. People don't need to learn anything new and become even more tech illiterate

AI is going to make it so much worse. You'll soon be in the top 5% if you have a keyboard app installed on your phone.

Ugh

To be happy

Yeah exactly. I'm calling BS that the thrill of the chase is the main motivator. Maybe it is for a handful, but for the most part people just like to be dickheads.

As soon as you decide to decentralize your platform it ceases to belong to any particular group.

Then why not prove you can do it and then shut the bot down?

I dunno, I suspect most human alt texts to be vague and non descriptive. I'm sure a human trying their hardest could out write an AI alt text.. But I'd be pretty shocked if AI's weren't already better than the average alt text.

Iirc it peaked at around 30% market share. I think IE was around 60% at the time. So never dominant, but definitely very very widespread.

Same reason most non technical people using Linux today do so on the Steam Deck. If you want to spread Linux, trying to convince individuals is going about it all wrong.

You need to convince Canonical or Red Hat to spend more on partnerships with manufacturers. I'm not sure if anyone else has deep enough pockets.

Oh man, I love adaptive cruise control. I also don't agree that using it in the left lane is bad. If there's a line of cars going too slowly, the person in front is the asshole, not the three using ACC behind them. You really shouldn't pass on the right anyway, would definitely not call doing that driving safer.
