You got it completely backwards: in Bitcoin the only thing that matters is the computing power of miners, not the number of nodes. That is precisely the problem that Satoshi Nakamoto intended to solve, preventing Sybil attacks [0]. In few w

Without any other information I must suppose you are talking about Bitcoin (BTC), which has limited scalability and therefore high transaction fees when there is high demand. Bitcoin Cash BCH has low fees, below $0.01 as I mentioned. You ca

Great! That means people will invest in cryptocurrency projects with good fundamentals and that deliver value, instead of the pure speculation that we've suffered until now.

I discovered ART [0] from other comments here, and it looks like it explicitly supports Digikam/Darktable metadata sync through XMP files: > Better metadata handling (thanks to the exiv2 and exiftool libraries), with (optional) supp

OP here. This is my workflow, it doesn't have to fit everybody else. If you want a single software to do everything then you should give Darktable [0] a try, it can handle all steps in my proposed workflow including importing, browsing

I'm glad you found something useful from the article. I have discovered ART [0] from the comments here, it looks like a better RawTherapee and I want to try it out soon. [0] https://bitbucket.org/agriggio/art

OP here. I do use Hugin for panoramas, and it's fantastic. I was going to write a bonus section about it but I wanted to get the post out of the way as I had been working on it for too long already. I will add it in a future update.

OP here. You make a great point, and I am that careful with my photo collection. I didn't put it in the article but I do copy my full photo collection into a USB hard drive about once a year when I visit my parents. This way they have

I had seen some mentions to ART a while ago, it looks like it has come a long way. I see several features that I was missing from Darktable (automatic perspective correction, improved shadows-midtones-highlights handling, masks...), I defin

+1! Darktable is simply amazing. I also use it, just on specific photos. RawTherapee gives me good results for the bulk of my photos in less time, which for me it's an important constraint. In the end it's just great having multip

OP here. I honestly don't worry too much about full sync between Digikam and other software. In my workflow I process all RAWs first, then edit all metadata in Digikam. After that I very rarely have to come back to RawTherapee/Dar

Blog author here. Would you believe I didn't notice the proper capitalization is RawTherapee and not RawTheRapee? I didn't think twice about the semantics, now I can't unsee it. Thanks for the comment!

Pro tip: run ssh <host> "tmux attach || tmux" to have SSH automatically attach to an existing tmux session, or start a new one if there is no session.

The private keys are usually encrypted, so the attacker would have to brute force the password, install a keylogger or use a wrench, to give some ideas.
