I like the way you assign different attributes to friends and family… 😁 Computer idiots, friends and family or … Computer idiots friends, and family …

Loosing vast amounts of historical posts or would I say “cultural heritage” is a shame but I couldn’t trust the party hosting it …

So with Twitter I did the same, 13 years of tweets. Even took a one month payment on a bulk erase / unlike / unfollow / unretweet service to get it done in a reasonable amount of time.

I looked briefly through their site:

• Heavy on partnerships and ambition. Which is a good thing.
• Light on technical details and implementation.
• Hinting at former hype (blockchain) and current (AI)

But for me the biggest concern is development of a “new” decentralized protocol. IMHO there are enough protocols around to choose and pick from and help moving them forward instead of making one from scratch.

And like you said: all tooling for files works for this … For example I use F2 (highly recommended btw) for bulk editing filenames based on regex patterns. This could easily used to edit metadata in bulk.

I like this … a lot.

Is it new?

If there isn’t even a todo task manager that handles notes this way, it is. Because man are there myriad implementations of that stuff.

I have a floccus sync with NextCloud bookmarks but for long time archival and accessibility I use FireShot for pdf and png saving to local copy.

Your bookmark + pdf + image + html intrigued me but I is it possible to export in bulk these files for local archive and backup?

Got a work related variant, a 3 letter domain we really liked was registered by a person asking a couple of hundred bucks or so. Which really was a good deal and we were more then happy to pay.

Our IT department advised guiding the transfer themselves. Instead our marketing department went ahead anyway and just agreed to “you end your subscription and after that we register it” … instead of using transfer codes.

In the minutes between, a bulk claimer snatched it away.

I came across something like that in a proprietary “epub” format. Not because of formatting/styling but because of crossreferencing and footnotes it stored every word in a database with its position.

Is “choosing which files and folders” an upfront configuration thing, or does it happen “on the fly” when opening a file?

It’s a type of integration with local file handling:

• you see every folder and file in explorer / finder.
• they are just filenames but without the data
• they act normal and can be copy pasted renamed etc
• the moment a file is opened the first time, the data gets synced locally.

I use it to connect to rather large folders (bigger then my SSD) because it only takes up space of the files in use.

I deleted my comments seeing the ending side note about NC.

Does the MacOS NC app do files-on-demand?

For example, because its autocorrect in a multi-language setting is pretty bad (autocorrecting wrong language even if its manually switched).

Was wondering…

If I would invest $10 a month … How many computing power I could get … For an Adnauseam-As-A-Service server … And how many ad-budget that would vaporize?

Would it make $100, $1000 or more ad budget worthless?

Just curious what the numbers would be?

And the “we play nice” respons of IAB: https://iabeurope.eu/iab-europe-tcf-and-noybs-war-on-cookie-banners/

Yes https://techcrunch.com/2022/03/04/noyb-second-cookie-complaints/

4. It’s not gdpr compliant in the way shown here or IAB TCF uses it.

Legitimate interest is a sort failsafe which can be used to cover certain exceptions.

• the datacontrollor must have an exceptional situation, so not on a regular basis.
• the balance between personal and business interest must be considered carefully under case by case basis.
• the dataprocessor isn’t the one doing the consideration

Automating all this is kind off against all the above.
