Employer on a job meeting on an employer device that is. Clients? Not so much ...

It seems like a no-brainer but actually no.

Quick test would be for example if there are:

• at the beginning of the music library a lot of "no artist name" "no album name" entries, so the foldername isn't used at all.
• a lot of artist with their own entry with just one album and one song because the actual albumartist collaborated on one song with them and the mp3 resides in the same folder but they got split in the library.
• if the player doesn't show music which isn't part of Playlist.

So my conclusion is their are even 3 types and corresponding mangement:

• Folder based requires file management
• Meta data based requires tag management
• Playlist based requires Playlist management

Often players make combinations also I guess.

A music player which "just plays whatever is in a directory". Very handy for people having a media folder with artist folders and album subfolders. For the type of people, like myself, who focus more on tidy and disciplined storage of files instead of managing ID3 metadata etc

Not for Photos specific but F2 seems to fit some of your use cases. https://github.com/ayoisaiah/f2

Even can use Exif fields as variables in the naming scheme. https://github.com/ayoisaiah/f2/wiki/Built-in-variables#3-exif-variables

I don't know, but I guess the reason why it isn't done yet is because nobody perceives it as a problem. It would require a repository plugin to install plugins I think. But it all comes down to plugin distribution and deployment. Mostly if you want something outside the default repository you can just upload it to your own install / stack. If a developer provide alternative download ways. Like a github release for example.

Can only be done by default ... also means there are other options.

Matt disappoints but their plugin repository isn't a vendor lock in like Apple denying other app stores (without acts enforcing it etc).

If an historical timeline uses this labeling system it can't omit the NT part though. Windows NiceTry came out in 1993 but also long after that MS had MS-DOS based editions (up until Windows Me iirc)

Also ... not knowing you're in a race is a sure way to lose it ...

I'm fairly new to Linux also, Debian with Gnome.

I need CLI filemanager when doing something outside home directory etc.

For example fix a desktop shortcut and you can't start Nautilus "as an administrator " afaik. Or it won't ask for root password.

I use OSMand website to prepare and plan: routes and POI in folders for certain trips. Then I sync that to OSMand to have it on mobile. I think it's part of the paid subscription.

I guess that's on a PC? Or isn't there any iOS or Android app on your smartphone which is either showing in-app adds or just simply hooked up to adtech by trackers?

If you put it like that I would prefer production, casting and direction like Narcos (Mexico / Griselda etc). Sublime in picturing another era and pure nitty gritty of real life back then. Without fake glorification.

Isnt CAPSLOCK case for screaming? 😁

My understanding is roughly, for example:

• Microsoft Word desktop application: not SAAS.
• Microsoft Word online: SAAS (just like any other service accessible by browser but not a "localhost")
• Onedrive: SAAS, storage with local explorer integration.
• Exchange server on prem: not SAAS, increasingly diffucult to do.
• Exchange server by MS: SAAS
• Microsoft Outlook Classic for desktop: not SAAS.
• Microsoft Teams for desktop: SAAS although local install but its just another frontend instead of browser.
• Office365: SAAS but really a container for every tool in the MS online toolbox together.

Some caveats: Word handles spellchecker in their cloud and clippy 2024 (Copilot) integration blurs the line.

SAAS isn't about subscription perse although they have them of course. Its about "not needing to take care of". It's software on "someone else's computer" just as with public cloud. In a SAAS construct a provider does the hosting, computing, connection, install, configuration and maintenance. Absolving clients from that burden.

Comparing proprietary desktop applications (even with a subscription) with FOSS alternatives is useful, it's just not SAAS.

I prefer FOSS as much as possible and didn't read all comments on YouTube but ... desktop applications are not SAAS. eg LibreOffice and Adobe apps. But I guess it only requires a different title as the list itself is useful

I like the way you assign different attributes to friends and family.... 😁 Computer idiots, friends and family or ... Computer idiots friends, and family ....

That's what my friend Giskard said. 😁

Got this site once stating "passwords can't contain parts of username" icw a 64 character pw.

And usenames like "daneelolivaw" block passwords with

da an ne ee el...

dan ane nee eel ...

dane anee neel.... etc in them

I think poster meant dark pattern (asking for bogus consent while collecting more data then user agrees upon) as a way of cheating by Google.
