  • Only when it stops getting views. These and similar types of videos can garner views, which can then in turn garner money. If it’s a low-effort/high-reward scenario, why not try it?

    I don’t like them anymore than you do cause they’re so predictable but it makes people laugh and thus want more. That 10 second dopamine rush is addictive.





  • My biggest question to FUTO/Immich is if they’re worried about a revenue stream, why not do something similar to Home Assistant? You never have to pay HASS a dime and never see anything to “shame” you. All you get is essentially a forwarding subdomain with some “easier” ways of doing cloud related things. There’s zero “shaming” or calls to pay. I pay HASS/Nabu Casa monthly cause I’m lazy and it makes my life easier. FUTO should consider doing something similar.



  • Less that they don’t want other companies using it and more so they don’t want other other companies translating it into something they can use.

    Basically, translating an instruction manual from German to Spanish.

    No one is breaking any copyright laws or IP to do this. It’s the same how Steam created Proton to run Windows games on Linux. It’s translating code from one language to another that’s readable.

    If Linux becomes the dominant gaming platform for gaming (not gonna happen, wish it would tho), there is no reason for a “Proton for Windows” could/should emerge.


  • Take every opportunity you can to learn and grow but don’t over exert yourself. Everything you learn can be used at a different company. Never know where your learned knowledge can take you.

    Don’t be afraid to ask questions. If you don’t know something, it’s better to ask and do it right the first time than fuck it up and have to waste more time. If they get mad for you asking, bail. People who can’t accept questions are people who can’t lead.

    Do your job to the best of your abilities but don’t be loyal as they won’t be loyal to you when things are looking down.

    If they offer any sort of benefits; PTO, College Funding, Health Care, etc; take advantage of everything that makes sense to you. Don’t let ANYONE make you feel guilty for using it. The company is going to use you. Use them right back.

    Leave work shit at work and home shit at home, whenever possible. Be chummy with your coworkers but don’t mistake them for friends. “We’re like a family” is bullshit. The company will throw you to the curb if needed.
