You're describing the world wide web, except giving others write access

OK 80 GB is for sure an edge case. Nextcloud won't even work for that due to PHP memory limits, I think.

Interesting problem. FTP is an option, with careful instructions to an untutored user. Maybe rsync over a VPN connection if it is always the same sender.

Not even sure what else would reliably work, except Tannenbaum's Adage.

Just looking through the features, things like their own VPN.

Good mobile game. I think I got through all four of them. Not all that much of a story but graphics and gameplay are good.

Lot of reinventing the wheel going on there. I will be interested to see how it matures.

Sending is someone else's problem. They have all sorts of different understandings and tools and I can't deal with them all. So the only alternative is to set them up with an account in (e.g.) Nexcloud or just accept whatever Google service they use to send you a large file.

Sending other people files is easy in Nextcloud, just create a shared link and unshare when done. Set a password on the file itself.

Got any links for howtos on this?

I dealt with a lot of time sinks like this running on consumer hardware. I got a Dell R720 and those problems all went away. Now I have a power and cooling problem. :D

Interested in this too - immich gets so much viral hype I'm a little suspicious of it

That's such a nice feeling

I run it on BSD and just use the pkg and never have any trouble. Clients are all in the Tumbleweed repos so are the latest which I think helps. Update, run occ update and it always works fine.

 

Just find your store, then search for whatever you can't find. Tells you what they have and what aisle it's on. IT'S AWESOME

It's pretty good even raw. Pils and golden malts,honey, some bitter and some sweet orange peel, cascade hops and coriander.

Just trying to get rid of these trash bottles ;D

And there are pretty active groups in Austin. It is pretty trivial to get a GMRS license for UHF walkie talkies and use of the GMRS repeaters around town, and not too hard to get the basic Technician license to get the real goods and talk far far away.

North/south roads are surprisingly icy while east/west roads are less so. Still showing a little. Definitely don't drive for a few hours if you don't have to although 35 seems OK. Saw some black ice too.

 

This beer was fermenting normally for about 16 hours then foamed heavily. I guess its infected but I don't know how, usual strict precautions were taken. Outgassing like crazy.

The Celtic Festival was Nov 2-3. It is still low key and a lot of fun although I liked it better at Fiesta Gardens. Ticketing was a little bit of a pain with the silly SI app.

Good bands, Irish dancing, the games, lots of good food. Beer was crazy crazy expensive, something like $20 a pint at the pour it yourself trailers. This was sad as I remember just taking a 20 and having 3 or four glasses out of that not counting tips. The whiskey tasting was fairly engaging.

Excellent bands, the venue is nice, and all in all my main conplaint is the beer price. Because that was insane.

 

Verdict: not great, not terrible. VIP probably not really worth it.

Had VIP for James/Marr. The rear VIP area is nice, but far form the stage and people line the rail so hard to see.

The stage VIP area is just about useless. If you aren't at the rail on the left side, you can't see a thing and even then the speaker blocks a good part of the stage.

A good spot on the floor not behind a tree or way back to the right or behind the sound booth or behind a tree has a great view, and the sound is probably way better.

Sound was mid. Couldn't hear the guitarist from James talking, and it was a bit muddy at times.

Inside looked just as I remembered it. Good for small shows.

 

Of all the things I did not expect, this is on up there. But it is pretty awesome.

Bad things have happened to me and next to me and behind me because of niceholes wanting to control the traffic flow.
