Having to commute daily attending #qcon really makes me appreciate working from home while still being a 15 minute walk from the office if needed. I can’t believe I used to do this everyday for years. Has it got worse or has it always been this bad?
It’s incredible how difference a commute can be when changing the leaving time by 10 or 15 minutes.

This is the best evidence, that Google is going too far.

I got email, that my 200 GB Google One plan is being phased out (with wife we have shared sub for Google Photos), and I have to choose between 100 GB (too small) or 2 TB (too expensive).

Wife, who not even 2 weeks ago asked me how to open file browser on her MacBook, asked me if I can make "some server thingy", to have our photos locally, and not in Google Photos.

So here I am, configuring Immich locally!
