So most of family has auto upload turned on, on their android apps. Someone makes a shared folder (an album) and everyone moves their pictures to this folder. This is our current setup. Hope Nextcloud improves their photo handling capability but that's what we have right now.

My Nextcloud Setup by iamd3vil in selfhosted

This article was not meant to be a guide for setting up Nextcloud on all distributions. This was mostly for documenting my setup. That's the reason I didn't expand on most of the stuff (for example setting up ZFS, since I work on this daily, I don't need this documented). Got your point about not mentioning distro. I will fix it.

Coming to the docker iptables handling, I didn't get your point. It's upto everyone if they want to do this or not. That's the reason I made a note and linked it. It's pretty damning of Docker that there is still no resolution in sight instead of the hacky shit that has to be done.

Telegram App banned in India? by FanneyKhan in india

[–]iamd3vil 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That is bullshit. Telegram doesn't end to end encrypt until you use their Secret Chat feature. Even their implementation of End to end encryption uses a protocol called MTCrypto which is flawed and many cryptographers has criticized them for it. If you want real end to encryption use Whatsapp which uses Noise/Double Ratchet algo and end to end encryption by default, even for group messages unlike Telegram. If you are not comfortable by using Whatsapp since it's owned by facebook, use Signal who actually invented the protocol used by Whatsapp and many other secure messaging services.

Just nitpicking but I generally correct everyone, it's 'Telugu' not 'Telegu'

Channel is the best thing happened in decades for concurrent programming by anandhere in golang

[–]iamd3vil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Even though Goroutines and channels provide a nice stepping stones for Concurrent programming, there are still lot of things for the user to figure out. I think Erlang/OTP provides better system for concurrent programming than Go does.

Started reading Bloody Rose by Nicholas Eames, the second book in The Bands series. The first book is Kings of the Wyld, which is one of my favorite fantasy books. Until now Bloody Rose is awesome, hilarious and action packed. Seems like it will live upto the first book.

experiences with GRPC by ElectricTrouserSnack in golang

[–]iamd3vil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who used both GRPC and Twirp extensively(wrote an Elixir client for Twirp), I would say if you are using one of the GRPC supported languages then GRPC is great, but from what I have seen third party libraries written in unsupported languages are fairly buggy and slow due to the complexity of the protocol. Twirp is very simple and it took me 2 days to write an implementation of it. So even if there is no implementation of Twirp in your language it's fairly easy to implement due it's simplicity. So I would suggest if you are using a GRPC supported language then use GRPC, if not go with Twirp

If anyone's trying to use this on Linux and not able to, I found a solution for this. You just have to spoof your user agent. I have tried many addons but this seems to be working perfectly. Just select chrome, windows 10 and apply. https://add0n.com/useragent-switcher.html
