4·22 days agoNot for Photos specific but F2 seems to fit some of your use cases. https://github.com/ayoisaiah/f2
Even can use Exif fields as variables in the naming scheme. https://github.com/ayoisaiah/f2/wiki/Built-in-variables#3-exif-variables
If an historical timeline uses this labeling system it can’t omit the NT part though. Windows NiceTry came out in 1993 but also long after that MS had MS-DOS based editions (up until Windows Me iirc)
Isnt CAPSLOCK case for screaming? 😁
Also I’m very much cautious about them on anything browsing related. Discovered (after others also) they let their search-pages-in-a-shop get indexed.
Meaning I could go to Caterpillar, search for “Wabtec is better” and then this search url (with 0 products) would turn up in Google searches and that URL persisted. Text and all.
Basically one could spray-paint and tag sites with this graffiti. Shop admins didn’t even have means to remove it.
Problem ignored and stayed this way for months.
Can confirm, tested it with Signal forum, also discourse. Fireshot stops at the end of the current loaded messages (20 of 94) and doesnt scroll further by itself.
Not sure, search on “screenshot lazy load Fireshot” or “screenshot lazy load Linkwarden” does not turn up anything conclusive.
Do you have an example?
It’s also the use cases supported by Linkwarden:
Dont know if it’s illegitimate otherwise 😉
But my user story is like this:
I want to preserve and archive information I used because it’s a reflection of the things I did, learned and studied throughout life.
Then my use case are:
- Orientation about “events”: places to visit on daytrips or holidays (musea, nature, parks, campsites) and looking for practical information and background as well.
- Gather a “dossier”: info to help make a decision (buying expensive things, how to do home improvement etc)
- Building a personal knowledge database: interesting articles and blogs.
My current workflow:
- Browse
- Bookmark extensively
- Download pdf or other content (maps, routes, images) when provided.
- Open bookmarks.
- Fireshot every webpage to pdf and png
- Save everything with a consequent filename (YYYYMMDD - Source - Title)
I would like to automate the last 3 steps of my workflow.
This, but for a Fireshot like tool. Screenshot and pdf of webpages in their entirety by scrolling while shotting. In bulk, with CLI.
Restic Backup!
Wasn’t sarcastic at all! I do think the visual coding style can be an inspiration for cli also.
Let’s say … like a ScratchJr but for terminal commands …
I do see valid use cases for pc in a test-exam-facility (meaning 80 pc without personal login) or pc in kiosk mode.
One of the few times I miss Files-on-demand for Win11. Connect an Office365 library with 500 GB to my laptop with an 128 GB harddrive. Integrates with file explorer, only caches local what you open, after a while you can “free space”, meaning deleting local cache version. NextCloud has the same on Win11 because its an OS feature.
Did you over engineer? Yes! Also: this is very cool!!
For my family my setup slightly different for reasons in other comments:
- do change browsers away from Chrome or Edge
- do change search engines
- allow cookies
- drop tracking surveillance traffic at the network level with something like pihole or nextdns
Thanks everybody, I learned a ton these 2 days. Like a ’ jump’ in understanding. Not only the specific answer to my concrete question but also on a conceptual level as well.
The thing that makes Linux next level for me now is the extra ‘abstraction layer’.
Thing is, for me, digital files always were as tangible as the analog object they represent. A digital document is as ‘real’ as a paper document. An email as real as a letter. But untill now files where ‘real’ digital artefacts. And thats … a bit different with ‘virtual’ files, sort of.
Anyway, new concepts to explore which is great!
Yep, I learned they have ‘portals’ for file-managing on their own.
Its in the original post. To create a distraction less or more less environment to prepare for exams.
