Was organizing old photos and using a self-written script but then found out that `exiftool` works better and has more functionality. Reminds me to look around for a better tool before slapping together my own poor version.
```
exiftool '-Directory<CreateDate' -d sorted/%Y/%Y-%m -r photos
```

wild to me that sites will literally say shit like "looks better in our app! download now!" because I remember a time when having a functional site on all screens was the goal and immediately prompting your visitors to download something was very shady behavior

New Toyota car owners will need to pay a $8/mo so their key fob can remote-start their car. Cars before 2018 are excluded, because their internal 3G networks are about to go offline, disabling Toyota's remote control. https://arstechnica.com/cars/2021/12/toyota-owners-have-to-pay-8-mo-to-keep-using-their-key-fob-for-remote-start/

Looks like this whole #log4j debacle is going to be hard to address due to Java practices consisting in shipping binaries (jars) of unknown provenance.
Glad the one in #Guix is built from source, and now fixed:

@klausi yeah, with that detail it's in a totally different direction
@klausi you might be one of the few lucky ones. An unfortunately large number of tech companies have that at their core, and many many people coding are unknowingly contributing to their success.

#wire has made it into F-Droid finally. Might be a worthy competitor to Signal (no f-droid, thanks m0xie) and Telegram (FOSS version maintained by separate group long after the release; questionable encryption and not e2ee by default).

I had only ever read about this and never tried it before, but now I can say with authority that this is the correct method and all others are wrong.
