  • Need a self hosted solution to offload old Photos's from iPhones to make space in iCloud for new ones

    Jump

  • Aha! I'm starting to get the picture. icloudpd to download to my server and Immich (or something like that) to use these downloaded images.

    Oh boy, this is not going to be a 1-click whambalam fix is it? 😃

    Ah well, gives me something to do and look into, it can be considered fun as well of course!

  • Seems Immich is quite popular and also seems like something I could start to use.If only we could point the Photos app to Immich or have Immich download and remove images which are older and could be moved to Immich.

  • Immich seems a real good option! And I am starting to believe that moving pictures from iCloud to another solution to free up space might have to involve another type of system/service unfortunately. Also seems that the Photos app on the iPhone has no options to use something else as storage, it uses local storage and iCloud storage.

  • Ok, I understand. How did you manage the pictures taken on phones after the move to ente? Perhaps once in a while bulk transfer them manually? Or perhaps tell the camera app to start using ente (if such a thing is even possible)?

  • Nice, seems viable!Does immich also take care of taking the pictures from iCloud and then remove them?

  • I was considering nextcloud but was not sure if it would fit my needs, hence I asked the people here as I have seen a lot of people talk about nextcloud so I wanted to see if their experiences fit my needs.

    Is nextcloud taking the pictures from iCloud and then delete them or dou you need to instruct nextcloud to do this or do you need to do that part manually?

  • This is an interesting one. Seems this one has has the backend and frontend covered. Does ente take the photos from iCloud and then remove them to free up space on iCloud?

  • Does this chain need another service to make the photos 'usable' for all the family members? I am not seeking just a safe place to store photos I will delete from iCloud, these photos are (ideally) also still available to view on the phones of all family members.

  • Thanks for the suggestions! Like you said in another reply, there does seem to be other options that might be simpler. But still, good to know these tools you mention!

  • Thanks, I will take a look!Am I right in thinking this will get you the photos but it is up to you to place them somewhere and put a service/app in front of that storage to make it usable? Usable as is; the family members can all access their own photos and view them as if it was on the Photos app from Apple?

  • So we are finally progressing towards a Series 4000 with groinal attachment, i.e. Kryten!

  • Pretty sure I just bricked my Mk4 during the mk4s upgrade

  • Thanks for that bit of laughter! 😂You just described the Buggy Whip metaphor pretty darn good.

    Guess you liked the matrix printers (or perhaps type writers?) better then these newfangled laser printers with their fancy 'lasers' and whatnots? Not a real question, just a fun tease at your expense.

  • If it was a bambu you would be buying a new printer without an upgrade path, and since a new printer came out, your old suddenly stops working right like some Apple product. Believe it or not, bambu printers have connectors, likely from the same global supplier too.

    So, where did the Bambu touch you, can you show us on the doll in front of you? 😀

    Come on man, this is a post about a Prusa being f*cked, not an invitation to vent on how you dislike Bambu.I want my 3d printer to just work and Bambu fills that category just fine. More than fine actually, it (P1S) has been nothing but a pleasure and joy to work with. The quality it produces is mind boggling (to me at least) and it never, ever gives me headaches about hardware or nonsense like that. I do not like to tinker, I want to print and Bambu does that perfectly imo.

  • This is tiresome, you are not here to discuss and exchange ideas but you are here to antagonize and ridicule. For some odd reason you think you are above me. It's odd. You will deny, of course, and perhaps I am not 100% right but I have to do with what you give me and that is the attitude of an obnoxious child trying to rectify others by the power of imaginary higher morals. Let's not beat around the bush here: you are behaving like an confused asshole.

    As long as you keep using that tired trick of "both sides are the same" we will progress nowhere in this thread other then you polishing your imagined sense of superiority.

    So no sensible attempt, however good or bad it may be, from my side anymore. You are just here to waste my time.

    And to put a cherry on your arrogant cake you close with some meaningless quote.

    Here, I will close with a BS quote as well:"Those who profess anyone can enter politics will end up being ruled by the incompetent".

    And that's it, I'm done with you.

  • So I respond with words yet you condemn me as being the same as how others are actively destroying democracy. I look for answers but you cannot help yourself in mixing it all together as one, it’s all the same. Nihilist my left foot…

    To be honest, you are just here to antagonize, not to discuss, or so it seems.

    For the record, I am not American so no running for office nor should I if I were eligible as I have no answers nor solutions.

    Well, back to my insignificant corner I go, this leaves you the space to project your version of ‘what is right’.

  • So if I read you right we can just about do nothing with what we face. We can all see what is happening and any action to remedy it is worrying and potentially a dictatorship, a decline in freedom of speech even.

    Sometimes you can clearly see what is happening and normal counter behavior is not working. The 'other' side is not adhering to your standards of democracy and is in fact using your standards against you. This sounds like the playbook from the right: they can do and say shit all day long as they are not held to the same standards as liberals are. Liberals need to be pitch perfect or else they face internal backlash. Conservatives on the other hand can literally shit in the halls of the capitol and face no consequences. And that is the least of our problems, they also use democracy to eliminate it, to turn lives of others in a dystopian hellhole and they will not only succeed, they are cheered on by a large portion of society.

    But whatever, this is what America wants. There was an election and they won, end of story. I can't even get mad anymore, if this is what the people want then by all means, this is what they get. Who am I to say people voted wrong? It is a free country where you get to pick you representatives, even if it means these same representatives will use that gained power to erode the same system they used to get elected.

    I don't blame conservatives to be honest, I blame the rest for allowing this to happen and who are repulsed and get morally conflicted when counter measures are suggested if things start to go south. In my opinion you do need strong actions to preserve democracy, measures that are sometimes in conflict with the whole idea of democracy. We need to learn that preserving democracy is sometimes an ugly business which requires dirty hands once in a while. But if that is not palatable then we are doomed to lose it because guess what, the other side has no such restrictions or moral conflicts, they will take it away from you.

  • Or block someone who has a disproportionate platform to communicate his views?

    I suppose the Fairness Doctrine tried to handle that but was thrown out. Perhaps time to bring it back? That way everybody gets equal air/message time?

    Question for me is, why is it important to 'protect' a foreigner to meddle with a country where he does not belong? And why does this person want to meddle with foreign elections? I would argue that a country has every right to assess, evaluate and take action whenever it decides that person has an influence on its election process. He (Musk) is no citizen of Germany and therefore should not be allowed to interfere. Expressing an opinion is fine until that person has a platform where this opinion starts to sway and influence that election. In that case I refer to my statement above about the Fairness Doctrine.

    Fair warning: I do appreciate a discussion on this but if it will involve words like 'woke and the likes then I cease to be interested in that discussion
