Use Immich.

Well, simply not possible. Might not be what you want to hear, but iOS simply isn’t for you if you’re not prepared to pay for pretty much everything.

Unlike Android there’s not a lot of good free stuff and you can’t pirate anything on iOS.

Well, that’s just a blog. WordPress comes to mind, though try not abusing it by installing too many plugins and transforming it to an abomination that takes 3 seconds to hack.

There are probably more modern alternatives, I personally wrote my own blog system that uses ActivityPub to synchronise with Lemmy and others.

Syncthing for files syncing, to replace stuff like OneDrive, Dropbox etc.

I use to sync files between my NAS, laptop, Steam Deck and phone, each with different dirs based on what I need synced there.

I’m weirdly excited that soon it will be a full year of daily screenshots.

I can think of multiple reasons a straight man could get aroused by seeing a dick.

First, erections don’t occur only because of arousal, they can happen from adrenaline as well. I guess if you’re a homophobe and are about to watch gay porn as part of research, you might get a bit of adrenaline.

Another reason I can think of is that most straight men see a dick when they watch porn, meaning their brain may make the association of “dick on screen = some hot nude lady is gonna show up”.

Critics like her say the very term “gold digger” reeks of misogyny.

No, the term itself doesn’t imply gender at all.

Anyway, I never really saw the problem with gold diggers, it’s a relationship like any other - you give your partner something they need and the partner gives you something you need.

So what if one of the parties needs money and the other a young woman to feel better? If there’s no coercion and no actual scamming, I don’t see the problem.

Well, I like my Fold.

So because you do it correctly, everyone else should get fucked or what? Like, you know how many people have bad parents?

So, congrats, your kids won’t suffer from that (or maybe they will once they have their own money because the path way of “spend a $1, get an in-game item, get an instant rush of feel-good hormones” is forming even with moderation). But other kids may, unless of course you think that it’s somehow their fault they have shitty parents.

So no, I really don’t want this around kids whose lives will be ruined just so your kids can have a fun time (which they can have in other ways, including other games).

Nah, I’m obsessed with corporations not ruining kids lives just to get few more dollars.

Also, please, stop putting words into other people’s mouths.

Cool, that’s why half the games you listed are just gambling machines in disguise?

Ah, the classic “world hunger is a myth, I have eaten today.”

I’m not saying there are not the rare gems in mobile games (just bought Don’t Starve on Android last month!), but like 99% of games for mobile are just s money making scheme using dark patterns to influence your brain to give them money.

And congrats on not spending on micro transactions! You do realize the world doesn’t revolve around how your perceive things, right? If young people are exposed to micro transactions like that, it alters their brains and not in a good way. And that’s science, there really isn’t much you can argue with.

Because the games are intentionally made with micro transactions as the main feature.

Like, if you play Witcher or Control or whatever, the focus is on you enjoying the game. If you play Fortnite, the main focus is on getting you pay. The game is probably still fun, but every single thing in the game is meant to make you pay.

Who would’ve thunk, young people with brains that are not fully developed tend to prefer games with addictive elements.

If it fits, great! If it doesn’t, you didn’t use enough tape.

Hmmm, tempting… Well, I might try creating one, should be easy*. But I seem to remember there being some bots like that already?

Well, it sucks that now you have to choose one or the other, but if you’re on LAN mode already, this should be the fix you were waiting for.

Though I haven’t tested it personally.

It’s not any more secure. The point that “installing random debs is insecure” has been running around for at least the last 16 years I’ve been a Linux user.

While it’s technically true, AppImages are as secure as random debs. Same with random repositories that are not provided by your system. Same with flatpaks.

And unless you’re an extremely basic user, you’ll eventually have to install an application not in your repositories. The method doesn’t really matter, it’s all equally (in)secure.

Well, NixOS is mostly for enthusiasts and it’s very much the opposite of beginner friendly.

The idea is that you configure your system in a configuration file, then run a command that makes your system match exactly what you configured.

So instead of apt install or similar you just add the package to your config, run a single command to rebuild the system and you’re done.

Which also means you’re mostly on your own, most guides for other distros don’t work and the documentation on how to do the things in NixOS are very incomplete. It’s nice and fun, but definitely not for an average user.

Glad you like it!
