People want them to conveniently power their house during an outage. Plug one end into a generator, the other into a random socket, and poof! You have power (so long as your house isn’t drawing more than whatever breaker you’re plugged into)

Problem is unless you turned off the whole-house-breaker, you are now feeding electricity back upstream into the grid. This is very bad. The friendly linemen who are working to get your power back on can’t de-energize the lines they’re trying to fix and will have a hell of a time working out which house is causing the problem.

Usually you have to enter your old password on the same form in order to set a new one.

Alternatively they could run a bunch of common substitutions on the new password, hash, and check if anything matches the old hash.

It’s worth taking the effort to learn if you want to self host stuff. The neat part is once you learn it, you can self host basically anything. Think of a container like a little packaged application that can only interact with the outside world through pathways you give it, either through volume mounts (files) or port mappings (network).

Immich is one of the more complicated and intimidating docker-compose files out there. Try something like glance or miniflux to get a gentler introduction.

Damn this one made me feel things as a kid and now that I’m a dad it makes me feel them even more

Dudebro, I write software and run servers for a living. Admittedly I don’t work with python, but I have developed web applications that run both on bare metal and in docker containers and I’m telling you that the amount of fuckery required to spin up anything on bare metal will 99% of the time be more than what’s needed to spin up the same application in a container. The end result will be more brittle and more likely to conflict with other software on the same machine.

Also, sure it’s not hard to install HASS in a pyenv now, because the dev team specifically ensured it. Maybe that requires tradeoffs that they don’t want to make anymore?

Seriously quit being a dick to people in niche software communities, it’s pathetic

No it’s not and yes I do you goober. How are dependencies handled in each scenario?

From a fuckery standpoint? Docker is way easier, and it works the same way for everything.

Yeah, that’s my experience. The backend is an environment you control completely and has well-defined inputs and outputs specifically designed to be handled by machines. Front end code changes on a whim, runs who the hell knows where, and has to look good doing it.

Docker is so much easier to fuck with than python

Sure as shit does!

Oh nice! Does the fact that it’s an appimage mean I don’t need developer mode?
