  • Norgur@kbin.socialtoAsklemmy@lemmy.mlIs "female" offensive?

    Let me break down the explanations given, because most of them boil down to this:

    As a noun, yes, because it’s mainly used in biology like that (“A hawk female”) and thus can come off as dehumanizing. As an adjective: No (“A female cashier”, “A male cashier”)

    As many others have said, only resaving the image with another jpg compression will degrade quality. What are you using to view the images with? Also, your workflow for looking at.those images/encrypting them sounds rather convoluted. May I ask why you do it that way? Is encryption important to you or is it something else? The constant zipping and unzipping sounds unsafe (so much copying, archives can corrupt) and insanely time-consuming.

    Just renaming them to PNG will change nothing at best and make your viewer unable to open the images at worst.









  • I’m always very wary of systems that require a user to deviate as much from the “usual” structure almost all other services use. HAOS has really weird configs and “all the functionality” that presumably breaks when you use docker and don’t have the supervisor for docker… well… If what HA did was the way to go… whi is it that tons of services use docker’s rather powerful internal networking features just fine but HA of all things can’t do that and requires weird addons that for some reason cannot live on any other system than a Debian with weirdly specific modifications (bye bye cgroupsv2)? This will break most other functionality of that host Debian. I mean… if only there was a widespread-way to provide a highly customized Linux kernel in an ephemeral environment that can just be plugged in and out of a host machine without changing the host machine itself… Nah, can’t have that, let’s cause more overhead with a VM…

    I’m not willing to make that kind of modifications to my whole setup just for HA and in the long run, this rift between “the way it’s usually done” and “The HA-Way” will become bigger and bigger, causing more and more problems.
