Thanks for the reply. Makes sense. I haven’t had any jobs recently that would push us there.
CC is also priced low enough we can sign back up for a month if we need it.
One feature set of CC I’ll miss is the libraries functionality working across all the apps. Someone on the team needs a client asset in any app ? (AE/ID/PS/AI) There it is.
How so? Genuinely curious what’s missing as someone who tried it on a job, and loved it.
I just sent a job to print yesterday and the printer didn’t bat an eye.
Are we talking specific types of printing? Like booklets or runs with specific imposition needs or something else?
I think ultimately it will depend on what one needs printed. It would easily meet most common printing requirements as far as I can tell.
I tried Affinity Publisher 2 the other day and it convinced me to pull the plug on Adobe and switch on the Affinity suite. Everything was straightforward and far more intuitive than InDesign ever was (which itself was far better than Quark Xpress before it).
I bought the Affinity Suite, exported all my Creative Cloud libraries (they’re just zip files with a different extension), copied all my Creative Cloud files to our self-hosted Nextcloud and off we went.
I promptly cancelled creative cloud. As I’ve said before, I’ll miss generative fill in photoshop - it was very good.
It’ll also take a while to figure out / learn Fusion as a replacement for AE but having spent a lot of time with Shake in the past, it’ll be fine.

Yes indeed.
The last project I did with one was build a moon and tide clock - all written in python with a motor controller, external display and individually addressable led lighting.
They’re also great as diy audio streaming devices for whole home audio.
I’ve had lots of fun with the very affordable Pi Zero 2w. Will pick up a few more before they disappear.
Fluoridation is part of a communist conspiracy to sap and impurity all our bodily fluids.
Powerful men have been worried about it since the Cold War.
Great, if dramatic, video on the subject: https://piped.video/watch?v=J67wKhddWu4
I’m on iOS and do the same thing.
The WireGuard app has a setting to “connect on demand”. It’s in the individual connections/configurations.
You can then set either included or excluded SSIDs. There’s also an option to always connect when you’re on mobile/cellular data.
I imagine the Android app is similar.
Great podcast called The Gun Machine covers how the ATF has to work with both hands tied behind their backs (just one of many great episodes about Guns and American society).

UTM will run full fledged linux just fine on Apple Silicon.
Sharing host file systems is still tougher than Virtualbox, but time and adoption will remedy that.
I dislike slack more than anyone I know. Awful tool that’s nearly impossible to use well at any scale.
But if you’re seeing gendered pronoun slack bot text (ex. one about avoiding using “guys”) those were added by someone at your org.
I was at such an org.
I was at another where slackbot and the ability for anyone to modify it was completely disabled.
Didn’t make slack any better though.
Neat, I’ll have to look it up. Thanks for sharing!
Nextcloud isn’t exposed, only a WireGuard connection allows for remote access to Nextcloud on my network.
The whole family has WireGuard on their laptops and phones.
They love it, because using WireGuard also means they get a by-default ad-free/tracker-free browsing experience.
Yes, this means I can’t share files securely with outsiders. It’s not a huge problem.
I wake up every day living the dream of delivering more value to the shareholders.
We really can vote with our dollars. The issue is that we don’t (I’m point right at myself here).
Don’t buy the things, we probably don’t need em.
We use simple, cheap motion detector bulb sockets for our closet lights. Open the door light goes on, close the door, light will eventually go off.
Many of our closets have had their doors replaced with curtains, and the solution works just as well.
Even the cheapest motion-detection sockets have a configurable sensitivity and timeout.
While we’re all-in on home automation (conditional everything including heat pumps and lighting) the closets were a case of “simple is better).
Otherwise I second the recommendation for the bathroom fan timer.
Braces for the downvotes.
Teslas are SaaS on wheels. Most EVs are sadly.
