This is amazing, although I would prefer to use a self hosted alternative to this. Nonetheless, I'll be eager to try it out

I do the same. Then group them in Digikam. Cull aggressively and put the best photos in an "external library" in Immich. Easy way to make them avaliable to my phone, without cluttering up my iCloud photos with duplicate JPEGs.

The last issue with my workflow now is figure out a better way to cull my iCloud photos, as they are a mess, and it's a bit annoying doing it on my phone.

Honestly, it doesn't really matter what you say. It's mostly about body language and not seeming like a threat (smile). You can talk about whatever. Tell them about a movie you just saw and ask them about recommendations. Ask them for restaurant or dinner suggestions. Tell them about that article you just read which you found intereting.

If they are open to small talk, they will drop some tidbits that you can spring off on. Conversation is a two way street. If they don't seem interested in keeping the conversation going, tell them to have a nice day and carry on with yours.

Also, I was looking into London Review of Books. I like The Economist, but find it can be a bit lacking on culture. Any experiences with LRB?

Super interesting project and impressive engineering. It wasn't quite clear to me how he solved the problem with

> Their motors are designed for slow, dampened pans across a stage, not for tracking a jet moving at 300 knots. The mechanical and electronics latency is significant; if you simply tell the camera to “follow that plane,” by the time the motors react, the target has often moved out of the frame.

Is he able to move the motors faster than they are designed to be moved? Is this the __Control (PID + Feed-Forward Loop)__ fix?

Unfortunately not due to co-living with the landlord.

I was recently evicted from my apartment in a city in Norway experiencing similar growth in short-term rentals. The rental on that apartment was around €750 (same for my roommate). Apparently, during high season in the winter similar apartments goes for ~€830 a night. High season is 3 months in the winter, but seemingly that is enough to outcompete longterm tenants.

Yeah, my bet is they are going downhill. Would love to know if anyone is archiving the work. I've contributed with a few samples over the years, and it't kind of annoying that this is now under Spotifys ownership.

Interesting read! And kudos to the security researchers for investigating

There is also Tromsø, Norway with a population of almost 70k. We're at 69 degrees north. I'm pretty sure we have a truck stop close by.
