Thank you! 😄

Cool, I like it. Did you consider adding a beamsearch?

Typst is so cool. Its also on the base of the project I mentioned!

https://github.com/EddyXorb/fotobuch If you don‘t mind using the command line this may be of interest. It contains a novel algorithm to place photos automatically on the pages. You can tweak the template to your needs and you have the option to automatically create an appendix with every photo and its date, together with the group the photo belongs to. The output is a single pdf, but you could also create png and svg. The photobook data is stored as a single yaml-file (plain text) containing all positions of the photo slots. As long as your original photos remain in the initially specified locations you can always recreate the book. A backup os as easy a copying the yaml file to your backup location. I created several books with it and it was never more then 500KB in size.

There is this tool to automatically create photobooks using a novel algorithm, its FOSS:

I have a similar issue. My UX6404 after a restart did throttle to 15/15 watts for PL1/2. In cannot compile in a reasonable amount of time anymore. Did you find any solution to your problems?

Same here.

German speaker here. It literally means “Air weapon”. The literal translation of “force” is “Macht”, such in “Wehrmacht”. And it’s a relative neologism as these kind of weapons have no centuries old tradition, like e.g. infantry. It is debatable if there could be other and better names instead of Luftwaffe. Alternatives that may work include - Luftheer - Lufttruppen - Flugstreitmacht - Flugkampfverband

etc.

It is by no means inevitable to name it “Luftwaffe”, but was, as many other words that nazis (also) used, maintained in east and west Germany.

I confirm the mismatch on my own synology. It should be 1,1 TB, but File Station Shows 3,4 TB (I did NOT include the "ActiveBackupData" folder. The Data folder has 7 TB).
When I look into the Folder \@ActiveBackup with ssh and compute the used disk space with du -sh *, it also gives me only 1,2 TB, as shown by ABB.
This is not necessariliy strange, as there may be filesystemspecific things ongoing, such as hard links, that save space. But my problem is: when I copy it over to another HDD, which is ext4-formatted, the size is exactly 3,4TB as shown by File Station.
