> Terrible search without AI is a bit of a stretch.

How so? I was looking for a photo of a grave I took some years ago. In Google photos I just searched for "grave" and if found 2 photos, including the one I wanted.

Without AI I would have to search all my photos. Maybe I could narrow it down by date and location but it would take a lot longer.

I have 100s of grave photos. Browsing by location would be way simpler

Thanks. I would gladly take away the "convenience of AI search" for the privacy that your service provides.

I used Ente once, and it was great, but I am poor, so I just store my images locally now. Not that your service is expensive or not worth it because I think it is.

I work on a similar product, and honestly the AI parts dont really matter wrt privacy. Its uninteresting. The EXIF information is way more private and useful, but exif data is also what makes the product usable. If you strip exif, you might as well chuck all your photos in a single folder and call it a day. We also dont sell your data to anyone and we dont run analysis on your data

This is giving too much credit to the competence of the same political leadership that has spent the last 30 years dismantling the European war machine(that was pretty solid up until the mid 90s) while Russia and China has been arming themselves to the teeth.

I concur, the slow drip feeding is adequately explained by coming from a place of war ineptitude and domestic priorities rather than a conscious strategy.

This happens in other countries too. Some people theorize that it's done because of internal rivalries between dependencies/political factions, but I suspect local governments are just inept at logistics.

Its also a difficult problem. They need the right digger and the right crew at the right time and possibly the right weather to get the job done. Many times there will be weeks of juggling around schedules and suddenly the digging started three weeks after the road was finished

"Infinite Growth Forever," - that onion-y sign off made me laugh.

Everyone in JS-land seems to have an opinion about how tooling should work, and because the platform (well, Node at least) provides no opinions of its own, everyone goes ahead and implements it. So you end up with a thousand-and-one competing bundlers, linters, formatters, test runners, etc, with all the associated churn and cost in learning it all and getting a new project up and running.

Compare that to something like Go which includes all of that stuff out of the box—by and large everyone has just said "yep that seems to work" and stuck with the defaults.

I think the second problem is the browser still fundamentally wants to be a displayer of documents. Yes there has been continued additions of new APIs over the years that have made the SPA pattern much easier to work with, the fact of the matter is you can still save yourself about an order of magnitude of complexity if you can get away with your app being an "old school" multi-page affair.

Well, Go bundles its own runtime with the executable. JS has to work on probably millions of different combinations of versioned runtimes.

Why is it gtk3? No Gtk4?

Almost feels like a right of passage when you inevitably google something like "kill self" (in reference to killing the current process) and get a popup telling you about suicide resources.

"Kill orphaned child process"

The GP mentioned it working for pictures viewed in safari

Yeah, i was thinking more about why it looks like it works so fast when you browse your photo library

> easily prevent mass-scraping due to sheer processing costs.

my 2018 iPad Pro does OCR on images in Safari instantly. People only think OCR is slow because Adobe Acrobat still uses the same single-threaded OCR algo it’s had for decades now; then consider how blazing a GPU-based impl would be…

It pre processes your photo library while charging
