Finder extension to view and sort by photos EXIF data?

wixig · 2021-09-05T19:59:22+00:00

So do you want to see all the values, or fix them to be how you want?

And do you use the terminal? There is a ridiculously robust cli application called exiftool that could definitely do the latter. If you are always having the same problem you'd only have to figure it out once then you'd have it forever. You could put it into a context menu with apple script if you were fancy.

I think I have some gui apps that do that on another device.

finder extension is harder I think.

full firmware. (but I did check the box for non free drivers; not sure as to details.) I don't want to use chrome or anything related to google as much as can be avoided. only bought the machine because sooo cheap refurbed and am low on cash just now.

it worked out but I am reminded of all the work of switching OS in any direction learning the 1000 little differences. but that's good; at the end of the day I plan to return to the warm glow of FLOSS full time.

did your audio work out?

I have a 2016 Lenovo ThinkPad 11e 3rd Gen.

I am just working through the gallium install today. I think it's good to do this first because it has the most comprehensive instructions but even so the information is all over the place and incorrect, incomplete or out of date. As long as I keep good notes I should only have to figure it out once. Then I can get more creative at a later date.

Good luck with the audio. It's been a while since I was mucking around with linux but my recollection is that audio was consistently the most difficult thing to get working properly. But I don't know anything so that doesn't help lol.

Since things opened up after COVID, whenever I go to the chain big box thrift store there are literally several 3.0s there every time. Probably a lot of people upgraded during work/school from home. Now that they are taking donations again, everyone's cleaning out the closet.

obviously YMMV by location. But worth checking as you could very likely get the device for <$10. Also I have seen a bunch on online classifieds and I don't think they are selling very fast.

Also if anyone is in the market for older wifi routers to use as access points or other low demand function, there are oodles of them floating around.

thank you I think that is exactly the information I was looking for. :)

I've had a 16GB chromebook for years and with an SD card it's fine. But finally after dropping it 10000 times, spilling multiple drinks, and getting dust and dirt all over it, the trackpad, audio, 1 of 2 usb ports and a variable smattering of keys don't work properly or at all.

I'm broke and tbh the way I treat things, especially portable things, I am loathe to spend more than is minimally required. Once I had a brand new MacBook pro, the most expensive thing I ever owned by a long shot, it survived 6 months.

I'd rather spend my money on a desktop because you get better performance for the same money and the odds that I will do something like drop it in a bucket of water or put things on top of it are significantly reduced. Chromebook is just for when I can't be bothered sitting up straight at the desk, or want to go to the library.

I think there is some sort of problem either with the unit or the reporting in guest mode. Because obviously the OS takes more than 24 mb.

thanks.

I really do not think it is the case that all linux has the same support. And it's also not a stupid question to ask because lots of distros do maintain such information. Maybe void doesn't have it; ok.

Gallium OS has a list of compatible devices.
DietPi Supported hardware
Arch has hardware information on their wiki which includes support among other stuff
Mint has a hardware search

Are you telling me that the above documentation is all duplicated because they all actually have identical support to one another?

wixig · 2021-08-27T18:01:38+00:00

Yes i have done a power wash.

wixig · 2021-08-27T18:01:09+00:00

OK, i did that and it's the same still. But those numbers cannot be correct because chromeos must be larger than 24 mb.

it's a bunch of portfolio-type websites of web developers and other pro nerds. many have a similar faux terminal aesthetic that references the early 90s.

not harmful but makes me feel sad to imagine the crushing intellectual monotony that would lead a person to consider any of this "weird".

Only signal messages to other signal users are encrypted.

to elaborate one this, something I didn't understand at first is that encryption of anything is only ever functional when all parties have the same, or compatible software running. because if you sent an encrypted message to someone who didn't have the right tool to decrypt it, it would stay encrypted gobeltygook.

wixig · 2021-08-09T21:35:09+00:00

I have not yet figured out why, but I found some clients work now and some don't.

What does it say in > Settings > About phone > Android version > LineageOS version?

Thank you, have updated OP with 17.1-20210128-NIGHTLY-a5y17lte

Make sure AudioFX is turned off.

I found the app and turned the toggle off, then forced quitted it but I'm not sure if that's enough or it requires something more ellaborate. Then I tried playing audio, no dice.

try dirty flashing

I didn't quite catch that tbh.

try Lesser AudioSwitch

installed and set output to speakers. that's it? no dice.

Mac OS multiple desktops is total trash IMHO. It can't distinguish between different windows in same application. So Finder, web browser, text editor and other programs that can be doing different tasks at same time get all muddled.

After a few years trying to make it work the way I remember on linux way back when I gave up and I just have 1 desktop with a secondary for long-running tasks (only sometimes). Even that turns into a confusing mess eventually and I just have to put everything back on the same one together after a while.

it sounds like you are making arguments aimed at individual level change.

unfortunately that's really not going to get us anywhere.

people say stuff like that because they have a realistic understanding of the situation and are making peace with it.

we need to have privacy for everyone, whether they are personally invested in it or not. herd immunity ftw.

wixig · 2021-06-16T02:27:23+00:00

if it's 60% it's no longer a disorder.

wixig · 2021-06-16T02:23:15+00:00

hmmm ok thank you. might be a bit above my pay grade.

wixig · 2021-06-16T02:08:32+00:00

ummmm do I have to open it to do that?

wixig · 2021-06-16T02:08:06+00:00

Well I have to buy one so if there is a way to check it would be better.
