Install is the easy part. Nobody ever thinks about maintenance.

And that’s how you’ll be justifying it for the next 4 years. Awesome job. I sure hope Kamala learned her lesson.

Leftists: How could it get any worse?

Trump: Hold my beer.

I had the same thought - an entire 8U rack to hold a single raspberry pi with an external drive?

You’re making excuses for burning coal. I’m saying they shouldn’t be burning it at all.

Why the hell did they ban nuclear before coal anyway? That was just stupid.

We?

It was a stupid idea no matter who conceived of or implemented it.

Which is why it was stupid to start shutting them down! 🤣

Baseload is still needed now. End of.

Baseload is an antiquated concept that doesn’t work with lots of renewables. Battery storage may be not completely feasible yet, but look at California to see that it has the potential to be ready faster than we can build new npps.

“Baseload” is still needed. Renewables are great but they are simply not there yet. There is a world between “potential” and “available”.

Actually coal consumption is down to the level of the 1960s.

Yes, it’s down since the 1960s. If this is your level of understanding I don’t expect this to go well… 🙄

It shot up between 2020 and 2023 (4th chart here): https://www.cleanenergywire.org/factsheets/germanys-energy-consumption-and-power-mix-charts

Yes other things were happening, yes other values are moving up (renewables - yay!). But with no nuclear to fall back on Coal plants had to fire up to bear the burden of pressure on other fuels.

Nuclear is clean. Coal is certainly not clean.

This is brilliant! We should also teach people to not steal or murder too! OMG I think you’ve cracked it!

Do you have a book or newsletter I could subscribe to?

I never said that. But there are ways we have to do neither. Why not concentrate on those, especially since they are magnitudes cheaper.

FSS I hate discussions with people… You can do more than one thing. You could have concentrated on both nuclear AND renewables and stopped burning COAL - but no, instead Germany had a fucking uptick in coal power while dropping the much cleaner nuclear.

This was so foreseeable it hurts. Renewables simply aren’t up to the task of baseload generation yet in the way that nuclear is.

It was a stupid idea no matter who conceived of or implemented it. Nuclear is the only viable clean baseload power generation option we have. Solar and wind can’t do it, coal and oil are filthy, battery storage is nowhere near where it needs to be yet.

Go ahead and try to use it then.

The likelihood of a risk in this proxy might be medium or even high according to you

It might be zero. It’s “unknown” (according to me I guess).

I’ve dug into the code a bit out of curiosity - it seems to me that “proxy” is a misnomer. It’s a stripped-down “view” layer built on top of the API. But has the same endpoints as the main immich app for shared things so that you can create links that work with it so it kinda looks like a proxy. But it’s just a “simplified public view” of sorts.

Meh.

I like to judge software based on its actually merit and not on the theoretical possibility it is vulnerable

This is literally the entire justification for the project. It’s assuming theoretical vulnerabilities in Immich.

I am not saying I would trust this software in a security critical situation

Which is the point of this software (security critical situation).

just that your speculation means nothing

This project has zero community support. That’s not speculative, it’s a fact. “Every project starts somewhere” is just a tautology that means nothing. Every project that fails starts somewhere.

Do you often recommend people running single-developer maintained software that has existed for about a fortnight for “security purposes”?

It’s some rando’s project that has existed for “nearly a month”, has no community, is unlikely to have any rapid response to any issues, and probably won’t be supported for more than a year.

But sure - go ahead and run it for “security purposes”.

You can “reduce surface area” by simply putting in place nginx or apache (real supported software) and blacklisting the endpoints you don’t like.

Kinda - It’s the only reason I bothered to reply to anyone. :-)
