Unbelievably corrupt


I think they're believably corrupt. In the old days we were okay with about 10% corruption in the states. But that was the old-school "bribe me to get something done" type of corruption. We've moved past that now and have more of a "we're only going to tell people we like what the true requirements are so only they will be successful in their bids" type of corruption. The problem with this style is it's hard to measure the financial impact. Maybe that's why we do it that way.

(clearly talking about the states here... my exposure to illicit payments to government officials in the UK is limited.)


There's an iPhone app


Personally I keep the last 365 days in my Google Photos

Everything else is in Immich

Pictures and videos I take get backed up to Google Photos

Once a year I do a Google Takeout and import into Immich

This way I get the best of both worlds


how do you get the photos out of Google Photos (and delete them from there I assume?)? I started on a CLI that could track photos across different accounts and make it easy to move then between them i.e. from GP to s3 or to a local drive etc. Was going to include duplicate detection. But if there is already another tool...?


Didn't they say Google Takeout?


Do you lose the EXIF data in the photos when storing on Google Photos? That's my biggest annoyance.


This is the correct answer honestly

There's a handful of games that are good on mobile - Bloons Tower Defense 6 comes to mind (does have micro transactions but they can be easily avoided to be honest)

But the fact that you can get Retro Arch and play any game from like the PS2 and older is amazing

If you get a controller like the Razer Kishi for example you can have a Switch-like experience

I've yet to try it, but I was gonna play Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask using my phone and Retro Arch

Should work well
