  • The traditional way is man pages and howto guides, which contain loads of information. You can get man pages in terminal or html (but I can remember how).

    Next up is online tutorials like you are using, however with complicated setups, like a full mail server, the info gets very specific and can often go out of date.

    Then we have readthedocs, which are the project specific instructions which tend to be very good.

    How ever my personal favourite is the arch wiki, you’ll need to know how to change commands to Debian based systems, but it does give a lot of info and insight that is up to date.

    For moving from Goole photos look at photoprism, immich and nextcloud, there are others, but these are the ones that made my short list




  • The guy at work was mentioning immigrants and hotels today, I use him as a baseline as to what the sheep in society are thinking. He’s now actually blaming the previous conservative government and labour for the mess we are in., instead of just the labour government. It’ll be interesting if I hear about this tomorrow



  • With my cheap over night tarrif (UK) I pay approximately 2p a mile, I’m planning a road trip to Europe soon and have calculated with a pay for discount EV charge card, I’ll average about 14p/mile. I’m saving between £60-£80 a month compared to my old diesel car, which pays off the charger install ~£900 in a year. Diesel price have dropped in the UK since I got mine.

    For servicing it’s coolant every 3 years or so, and that pretty much it. We have a MOT in the UK, for every vehicle over 3 years old, then yearly, that covers more than what is needed on the yearly services for my car. Only thing it doesn’t cover is lubricate the charge port, but I think I’m ok with that

    Also the cabin noise is almost silent, no gears, constant predictable acceleration, and I can plug anything I want in to the 240v outlet in the back seat






  • Ok the only people that can help you are the council, noise complaints are the responsibility your local council unfortunately, given the cuts that have happened over the years this means that they are underfunded. What you need to do is get the local noise complaints number and call it every single time it happens. This is what is called a statutory noise complaint. Just Google it. At the same time you need to start a noise complaint diary,

    the columns are date, start time, end time, severity*, weather, and details.

    Severity is on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 been nothing and 4 been OMFG argh. Details need to include what type of noise it is and most importantly how it affects you. Headache? Lack of sleep, emotional distress? Got to town however remember that this is going to be a legal document that could get used in court eventually. Also important is to do it daily even if there is no noise. Include if you are away on holiday etc if it regularly happens on a weekend etc. The council should send you this info after the first couple of incidents

    Now for the nighttime banging on the walls and screaming, if it just randomly starts in the middle of the night that sounds to me like someone is or could be having domestic abuse. I apologise in advance if this upsets people. You should contact the police and let the know that.

    If any of your neighbours are affected try to get the in on it as well, it’s much more effective with multiple people.

    Eventually you will be asked to place a “noise recording device” in the room that is most affected, at this point you know something is finally going to be done about, eventually…

    If you have any remote possibility of moving house in the next year or so don’t go down this route as i believe that you have to declare it to the next house buyer

    The problem we have in the UK is that most of the laws, procedures and police are built around people not wanting to be complete knobheads. Unfortunately the people have realised this and also realised there are no consequences for their actions
