I can't emphasize this enough: unless you can back it up and store it yourself it doesn't belong to you.

I lost my original iTunes account since it was tied to an AIM email. I didn't feel that bad since Google Play Music let me back all of those tracks up, except thousands of those songs are missing/corrupted when I pulled them back down, including ones purchased from Google.

Is it one of the Beelink minis? I had looked at some of them a while ago, but opted to just run most of my server containers right off of our NAS instead of getting a second box.

Only limitations are that some of my wife's old photos didn't keep their metadata so we're trying to manually assign some dates there, and the ML doesn't do a good job with pets like Google Photos can. I managed to a face assigned for our dog, but it can't reliably tag him with the free model.

We've been fully migrated for about a week after getting some settings tweaked for the server set up. I had an issue with the WSL 2 back end in Docker not allowing traffic for the ML to run off my GPU, so it was bottlenecking on the CPU in our server. Once that was sorted out it's been great!

The only issue is that the nearest PBS station is ~60 miles away, so I need an upgraded antenna and amplifier to pick that up someday.

No more waiting around for the CPU in our NAS to process each one individually, and we should be able to get better facial recognition from utilizing the models for the CUDA cores too.

This morning, I considered that Eve's error in the instruction might not be her own modification, but Adam may have failed to rightly handle the word of truth. (2 Timothy 2:15)

We need the second Adam to wash us with the Word (Ephesians 5:26) because the first Adam might have failed to do so.
