I self-host Immich, and run the iPhone app to back up my photos. I used this guide [0] for the initial import.

And “honestly” in the way it is used in this piece
> "cool" parents who are ok with sharing unsuitable content

Or simply parents who won’t agree with the government on what is suitable for their children.

We already have parental control on all mainstream operating systems, why cannot this simply be the responsibility of the parent as are so many other things regarding what children do, watch, eat etc?

At least for Hungary most of these are totally random websites with no connection to the government at all. 4/4 of the "region" websites are very random and all "district" sites seem to be pointing to a single decomissioned/archived site. The other lists I only spot-checked but they contain a mix of government sites and local news sites.

I don't see how such thing could go out in the public calling out government security when they didn't do the bare minimum of checking if the sites they "monitor" are truly governmental sites.

Why is this in the license?

What kind of discounts? I have never heard of this
It was great! And in MSN Messenger you could assign any string to be replaced by the smiley (which were basically any image including animated gifs) so some people’s writing was totally unreadable as letter or phrases were replaced with these images. Fun times

Re:Slack has raised our charges by $195k per year on Thursday September 18, 2025 @02:47AM (#45286333)
Hey! I have an open-source project for browsing an exported slack archive, it may be useful to you so you can see and search the history: https://github.com/pkarolyi/slack-archive-browser

I haven’t maintained it in a while since it works for us, but PRs are welcome :)

A good first one would be adding non-slack authentication as currently it only supports Slack openid for logging in, but it uses next-auth and should be simple to extend

This sounds like a great idea, does anyone know a tool like that?
There was a post I think here on Hackernews by a university professor (of philosophy, maybe) about how student's performance have declined a lot recently and how he cannot do anything about it. Can someone help me if you remember it? I cannot find it for the life of me

Disabling text selection is not just worse UX, it is actively user-hostile

And how do they define “on-time”? In Switzerland a train is considered on time if it reaches its destination with less than three minutes’ delay.
Re:Tell HN: Firefox Is an awesome browser right now on Friday February 03, 2023 @08:12AM (#34640578)
I use Firefox as my daily driver but I really miss user profiles and tab groups from Chrome. None of the tab related extensions for Firefox give quite the same ease of use as the built in tab groups do in Chrome.
