The quickest and easiest solution would be to update your snapper config and reduce the number of snapshots you keep.

The only adobe software I used was photo editing, so Lightroom and Photoshop. I have no idea what their other apps do, or how they compare to linux equivalents

Ah, no, I use darktable for all of my editing. But sorting my photos, rating, tagging and flagging them for future editing is all digikam.

Digikam is built from the ground up to be a photo cataloger. Hierarchical tags that you can click on to expand or contract, the ability to jump from a given photo to all photos taken on the same date, or all photos in the same folder, or all photos that share a particular tag. Collapsible folders and tag structures, the ability to toggle child tag/folder recursive view on or off, image grouping (automated by filename/timestamp/burst). They also share metadata perfectly well through EXIF data, so anything I do in one is visible in the other right away.

This is digikam

This is the same folder in darktable

My biggest issue with darktable was the masking. It’s so different in darktable, but once I understood it, all the barriers fell away

I can’t find something that has a decent workflow. I’m not looking for anything fancy

I import, sort and tag my photos with Digikam, and then open them with darktable for editing.

I was one of the former. Photography isn’t my job, but it’s really important to me, and photo editing was a show stopper for me for a long time. Even after I moved to Linux full time, I was using remote desktops, VMs and whatever else I could manage to get Adobe stuff working, without having to switch back to Windows. I endured, because I’d finally hit a threshold where that pain was worth putting up with in preference to Windows and its built in ads and spyware.

But when I finally gave up on getting Lightroom working on linux, I figured I had no choice but to learn a linux compatible workflow… It was either that, or go back to windows, and that wasn’t happening…

In hindsight, I’m so glad I couldn’t get them working on linux, because it forced me to get my head around Darktable. I couldn’t go back to Lightroom now…

They look like Royal Terns!

Are you running it in docker, and have you allowed the container access to those folders? Is the disk formatted in a format that allows linux permissions?

Unsurprisingly, vulnerable folk being regularly and deliberately attacked by people “speaking freely”, tend not to see “speaking freely” as a gift, and are more inclined to see a space where they’re not attacked just for existing as a gift.

Or start your own!

Amazing :)

My IQ goes all the way up to 11!

Iceland?

Though prices are high in Iceland. Their wages are also high, which offsets that, but if you’re coming in with foreign currency/income, you’ll feel the prices more…

It doesn’t really match my experience though. I’m one of those rare ADHD folk who has zero issues with sleep.

I like themed instances and would enjoy them more if the All feed were personalized instead of the same for everyone.

That’s what your subscribed feed is for…

But choosing an instance that fits you best isn’t possible

It doesn’t need to be the best fitting instance possible. It just needs to be an instance that lets you use and interact with the fediverse in a way that works with you. That’s why a lot of people use generalist instances. They’re no ones “best fit”, but they are also less likely to be bad fits for folk…

Some instances are themed, some are generalist. Because multiple communities can exist around the same topic/theme, the user based ultimately ends up in a community hosted on an instance that fits their needs, because if it didn’t, they would simply move elsewhere.

Which ultimately means that if you get instance banned from an instance that hosts a community you want to use, there’s a good chance you weren’t going to last long in that community anyway…

It will compile and install the module for you. All it means is that whenever your kernel is updated, the install process will take around 5 minutes longer than it otherwise would whilst it compiles the dkms module for you.

If you use the lts kernel package, your kernel updates will be infrequent.

If you use the regular arch linux kernel package, it will update every few weeks like it does now, and each time, your package installation process will run a few minutes longer due to the need to compile the driver

I’ve got one already, with pedals. But I don’t have dedicated space to use it, so it never comes out :\

The PS5 lets me play Gran Turismo with VR. and turn by using the gyro function on the controller, effectively mimicking a dedicated steering wheel by turning the controller itself rather than stick steering. I could use a wheel, but without a dedicated space to keep the wheel, setting it up and packing it down is just too much of an issue. Gyro steering gives me much of the same control as a wheel does, but without the hassle.

So gyro steering and VR together was a game changer for me. They were so amazing that I can’t play racing games any other way now…

But VR on the PS5 is basically dead in the water, so hardly any games support it, and gyro steering is basically unheard of in most racing games. So it’s pretty much Gran Turismo…

In theory it’s technically possible to use the PS VR headset on my PC, and configure gyro steering, but so far, the combination of getting them all working and configured correctly AND finding a game that supports it all has defeated me…
