Most of the cameras like this that I’ve seen have an app that lets you transfer the photos too. The issue is that you need to connect to the camera with Bluetooth, which then turns on the camera’s wifi for the full connection. The apps do this automatically.

I’ve been wondering if there’s a way to run the app from a computer, and connect to the camera through that, but I don’t know how you’d get it to wake the camera to allow the wifi connection.

There was a TV show in the UK called Crimestoppers, where they would show reenactments of crimes to try to find witnesses. I used to wonder why they didn’t just arrest the criminals while they were filming.

I just used Swift Backup with Shizuku to move an app from my old phone to the new one. It had an apk, but had some other files with it too. I don’t know enough about it to know whether the app can be used without those files, or if they’re linked to me at all, but the app works on the new phone :)

Illike your style 😁

At least two people in my friends list have posted the ‘It’s not Happy Holidays, it’s Merry Christmas’ meme on Facebook. Unsurprisingly, they’re both white guys in their 60s with bald / shaved heads. Both decent guys who help their friends and community, but are sliding more and more into this bullshit.

It’s fucking depressing

There’s only one cleaning supply, that’s why their family complains

Mr The Grinch? I can see it. It would probably at least partly explain why he hated everyone too.

‘The grinch had a heart that was three sizes too small.’ It gets ambiguous very quickly

I’ve had to post to Instagram for a music festival that I’m involved with, so I used Bluestacks on Windows to run the mobile app, or the Meta Business Suite in either a separate portable browser, or in a VM. I found that I rarely used the app, as I was posting information as opposed to proper photos, and just answering the occasional questions.

As much as it pains me to say it, Meta Business Suite is pretty good for this, and allows you to post to Instagram and Facebook at the same time, or schedule a post to one or both of them from the same interface. e.g. if it turns out that you get more views at 12 on Facebook and 1 on Instagram, you can schedule the same post to go to each service at separate times.

I mainly use it from the desktop, but it’s available on mobile too with at least the same basic features. I don’t tend to use anything more advanced than scheduling, so I don’t know what that’s like in the app.

Another reason I prefer the desktop over a separate phone is the data collection. I can set up ad blockers and VPNs more easily than on mobile, and there’s no location data other than where I keep my desktop, I’m not carrying my desktop with me when I’m out and about :)

I hate it when the numbers affect each other too, so if you roll back on the minutes, the hour changes too. It’s awful.

This heathen dares to suggest that The Hand causes collateral damage!?! The Order Of The Deliberate And Benevolent Hand finds this extremely offensive!

The Most Pointiness From Above only Squishes those who deserve to be Squished!

Ah, that’s a shame. Thanks for letting me know :)

Maybe a daft question, but have you tried a factory reset? I’ve got a Xiaomi Mi 10t Lite 5g that’s having a lot of the same sort of problems, but a reboot tends to fix them temporarily. I’m hoping that once I get my new phone at Christmas, I can completely wipe this one, including the cache, and see if that helps.

I will certainly do my best 😊

Thanks to some fantastic help from @[email protected] and the other awesome commenters on my help request, I got some of my self hosted services running externally, and was able to backup my phone photos while I was away :)

Completely agree. OP is a troll. They pop up every so often claiming this nonsense. Chav is not, and never has been, a slur, towards working class people or otherwise.

Source - I’m a working class man from a working class area in the UK and in my mid 40s. I was in my teens when chav became a thing, and it only ever applied to a certain subset of people.

Just a heads up, OP is a troll. They pop up every so often, sometimes with different accounts, claiming this nonsense. Chav is not, and never has been, a slur, towards working class people or otherwise.

While it’s nothing like the same degree, as nobody was hurt, we already had black Friday in the UK too. It’s the last Friday before Christmas, when the factories would close for the holidays and the workers would typically hit the pubs to celebrate.

Now we’ve got black Friday, black Friday season, and even black week being advertised to us, all based on an American holiday in November 🤷🏻‍♂️

Sorry, I didn’t get a notification for your reply until this morning.

Thanks for the offer, I’d be happy for any notes or advice :)

I managed to get Navidrome and Immich set up last night through subdomains, like music.domain.com and photos.domain.com, using the existing Cloudflare tunnel. They seem to be working properly, but I’m going to check them when I’m out later to make sure that nothing was cached rather than being served live.

One thing I want to look at in the future is local domain names, so music.local etc. and possibly set up certificates to get rid of any warnings about insecure sites. I might switch from AdGuard to PiHole to help with that.

Something that might make you laugh, I got stuck for an hour or so last night trying to connect to Navidrome through the domain name. I could get to the login page, but couldn’t get it to accept my credentials. Substreamer wouldn’t log in either. I looked through pages and pages of search results, forum posts, and manuals, but couldn’t find an answer. Just before I gave up, I copied the address from Firefox to try in another browser, and realised that I’d forgotten the s in https 😫

Please don’t apologise, you and the other commenters have been a massive help :)

It’s sod’s law though, I was supposed to have two pretty much free days yesterday and today, and they’ve turned out to be two of the busiest days I’ve had for a long time. Networking is one of my blind spots, I can never quite get my head around it, so gave myself two days to try to get up to speed and seem to have jinxed myself :D

I’m going to spend an hour or two now playing around with Cloudflare and Navidrome and see if I can get a better grip on it all.

Thanks again for the help :)
