Yea, honestly this pencil (and eventually a metal version of this) was like the BIFL of all my school supplies.

I’d get one, maybe a 2 pack, at most once a year. College, I had a metal version that lasted me all 4 years.

Give a kid one nice pencil or 2 pencils, and they won’t lose it. Give em an abundance and they’ll most definitely lose em.

Why might it not be for me? It looks sharp!

“voting in elections or organizing revolution? this is a fake choice, neither lead to freedom. the only way to attain freedom is using linux.”

That explains why since joining the fedi my cell phone has been slowly looking weirder

Day 1: signed up for hexbear

Day 2: downloaded duckduckgo browser

Day 3: thought hexbear was maybe a little too friendly towards north korea, left

Day 10: signed up for beehaw using duck duck go browser

Day 11: saw through my first wiki edit to ensure it remains

Day 12-14: got into an argument on the discussion section of a Wikipedia article

Day 17: left Wikipedia, downloaded f-droid to be able to download a new keyboard on my.phone

Day 18: enabled 7 day duckduckgo trial for VPN

Day 25: really started thinking about communism and if pure societal focused decision making was best

Day 26: wondered if capitalism could be defeated by driving property values up by beautifying your own rental

Day 27: deleted dumb apps because duckduckgo said they made lots of requests

Day 28: started looking for best way to share photos without google, settled on service needing end to end encryption, decided against self hosting solution after research (but still researched). Downloaded new keyboard and started looking into expanded version of fediverse, liking that w3 had something to do with it

All of this makes sense and you were dead on with assumptions! Thank you!

Its looking good to me! I can’t figure out if the 5 family members is the max that could upload pictures or if 20 or so people could occasionally upload pictures to designated folders. Do you know?

What would be some of the benefits of Immich? Is it just a lot of upfront tinkering or constant tinkering?

Thanks! With both of these, can anyone with access add pictures? Predominantly its coming from my fiance and I, but I could see up to 20 people wanting to upload their own pictures of our baby.

Also, is there any service that allows for comments/light social media features?

I love the end-to-end encryption!
