    No, v3 is a release with breaking changes:

    This release includes several breaking changes; read the full migration guide here. It’s worth mentioning that many of the breaking changes are updates to API endpoints and only affect third-party tools that integrate with Immich’s API. For the vast majority of users, updating works exactly as it always has.

    https://immich.app/blog/v3.0.0-release

    That’s why the major version was increased, it implies breaking changes in semantic versioning, which Immich is doing since v2 apparently:

    Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:

    1. MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes
    2. MINOR version when you add functionality in a backward compatible manner
    3. PATCH version when you make backward compatible bug fixes

    Well if you want the real basics of self-hosting then depending on your level of knowledge you may want to follow a Linux tutorial like this one: https://labex.io/linuxjourney

    This will teach a lot of basic knowledge and terminology you may need when setting up or maintaining containers and VMs. Admittedly, this is somewhat tangential knowledge to your immediate goals, but if you want to actually use your self-hosted stuff remotely later this will become critical to doing so safely.

    As for the map, for me it was something like:

    Local LXC/QEMU → Remote LXD over SSH on a RPi → Proxmox on a dedicated box through the webinterface

    In hindsight I would have started with Proxmox directly though I guess. One big downside is it doesn’t integrate well with Docker containers, you have to set up a full VM as your Docker host. On the upside though you can install LXC containers from https://www.turnkeylinux.org/ in a few clicks, so it’s very good for just testing stuff out and playing around.






  • Well the German Democratic Republic is unique among the former USSR countries in that it was unified with the Federal Republic of Germany. The latter already had a strong focus on privacy laws resulting from the Nazi time (meaning there was strong mistrust towards the state, but Nazis trying to hide in plain sight was obviously also relevant). But when the sheer amount of information the communist intelligence services were storing on their citizens became known after reunification this pre-existing privacy bias was put into overdrive, it confirmed all the worst fears west Germans already had about the state becoming too powerful.




  • Many popular projects written in Rust, including the UUtils core utils rewrite, are MIT licensed as Rust is. There have been people that purposely confuse things by saying that “the Rust community” is undermining the GPL.

    How would that ever be a problem in any case? I mean I’m not that versed in licensing stuff, but MIT explicitly allows sublicensing, so if in doubt just slap a GPL-sticker on the MIT code and you are good, no?



  • a low latency kernel (whatever that means. I’ll get there to figure it out eventually)

    It’s a kernel with real-time process scheduling enabled by default.

    In normal kernels a process can theoretically block all other processes from running for up to several seconds, which is obviously bad for time sensitive things like audio recordings or controlling a CNC-machine for example.

    In real-time scheduling all processes are guaranteed time slices in more regular intervals. This is good for time sensitive things like audio recording, but since there is some scheduling overhead it’s bad for single resource intensive processes or process trees like video games.

    You can read more about the difference between a real time and low latency kernel here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/RealTimeKernel





  • Must be some setting on your end, I’m getting offered translations on that page as well (stable release).

    Two things I could think of, either you haven’t set it to always offer translations or your browser is set to simplified Chinese.

    Another thing, you can select some text, right-click the selection, and there will be a translation option there. After you used that there will be a button for “translate the whole page” in the translation popup.

    Oh also you can download more languages through the settings (general settings page, right below browser language).
