I work in oil and gas manufacturing and we are slow dinosaurs when it comes to adapting or using new technology.

Recently we've hired a few startups for PoCs regarding to data analytics and they all get deeply frustrated at the pace it takes us to even agree basic details.

I concur, they know their target market too.

I have a custom domain setup and I can share an album with people without Ente, they can add their photos too.

The ML for facial clustering/recognition is definitely a step behind what google does in the cloud (especially on kids). But with a small amount of massaging it's a very good product.

I went with Ente for this reason. I have 5 family members on my plan. They'd have likely joined my immich.

1) I don't want their photos on my server in a form I could view. My brothers a stand up guy, but you never know what people are into. 2) I've spent the last 2 years convincing people the cloud is someone elses computer and google can access your photos if it's not E2EE. To then get them using my server.

There was another reason which they solved in the latest release (my wife and I share an album of our daughter automatically via facial recognition).

I guess while I'm at it, the final reason I went with Ente even though it's paid was due to not wanting to be the failure point of my families photos, doing backups etc.

Yep! Posted elsewhere, with LLoyds you get Disney+ With Ads.

If you block a single domain at the DNS level you never see those ads either.

I get disney+ with ads via my bank. We use it for my daughter and just blocking *disneyadvertising.com at a DNS level has meant not a single ad is shown.

I can relate to this. I run a whole network DNS adblocker and my wife made me whitelist her phone so it's freeeee

I'm not wanting to dispute or tell somebody what to spend their money on. I see this take a lot on reddit especially.

You bought arguably the same phone with marginal gains to CPU score and a little better battery. Paying €650 for that privaledge doesn't seem like a great deal to me...

Not going to happen, but also not every company will "win" so all of this revenue doesn't need to be recouped, just the revenue of the market leader/leaders.

That first poster example is exactly how every poster at my kids school looks. If theres ever any carton people they have extra fingers or are reading books backwards.

I did a GDPR request to KIA and I was amazed what they collected.

Here's some examples: How long I let the car warm up before driving, G force around every GPS corner, acceleration rates, max speeds, every GPS datapoint etc.

I don't deploy anything, I don't make money.

V4 flash latest has been great for me. It's so cheap it's almost free.

Can't answer this question as I know basically nothing.

I'd be perfectly happy with less headline speed increases and just a real world busy tower speed improvement. That or efficiency gains.

I'm more bewildered that they've limited our service as paying customers, restricting Kagi Translate. They have, however, not given any information on what our "free" limit will be.

I feel like it'll be quite restrictive. I use Translate maybe once every two to three months, but for those one or two days or a week I use it a lot. I'm not signing up for the translate service simultaneously just for that.
