Does Immich auto update / breaking changes?

When I had static on headphones on Mint (20, maybe 21) then killing PulseAudio would prevent it happening again for a variable amount of time (minutes or weeks). I hope someone suggests something better but that might be worth trying that next time it happens: pulseaudio -k. [edit: tried that just now and had to re-select my headphones as an output device]

I’ve not had to do that for a long time and I don’t know what has changed (fairly sure it had stopped happening before I got new headphones). PluseAudio isn’t even installed on my Mint MSI B450 machine, I assume it didn’t install during boot. I guess my static issues are are hardware related: something causing inference.

One is to view free firmware as desirable but not necessary

I can’t make firmware but I hope the people who can make free (libre) firmware don’t give up, which is what that position sounds like.

HexOS makes using TrueNAS easier, is the claim.

I have never used TrueNAS so I can only say from what I’ve heard that I could easily break it (I have used Proxmox to ran some web tools and game servers but currently that’s borked project).

An OS on top of TrueNAS for self hosting media.

You probably would be wise to not enact that line of logic.

Windows 11

What’s that?
