What does "half Jewish half Irish" even mean?

One parent is Irish and the other is Jewish.

I've been trying to find some good examples of how to structure the files, and whether to combine the photos from everyone or to keep them separate. Obviously there's different systems for everyone, but your method of syncing, tagging, and displaying/sharing photos is almost identical to how I've been wanting to go about it.

Do you mind sharing how you structure the photo files and naming in your Gallery directory?

I was thinking of implementing the Copyright tag to keep the data of the original phototaker, and then combine all the photos into a Gallery/YYYY/MM structure, with the filenames being YYYYMMDD-CameraModel.
There aren't many events we go to, so albums aren't a big priority, but on the occasion, I was thinking if using a folder like MM-Event in the respective year folder.

I'm just putting my thoughts down because I don't often see this part of people's photo organizing.

What non-FOSS software have you been unable to quit?

For me, Google video search, Google books (Internet Archive is good, but doesn't always have the same stuff), Adobe InDesign (but in the process of learning LaTeX), and Typewise. As for the Google stuff, I liked Whoogle a lot, but almost all their instances seem to have been blocked or shut down. Also, apologies if this is...

Maps are for documenting the location of things in the real world relative to each other. It could be anything, like roads and buildings, or rivers and bodies of water, or electrical lines.

Then there is all the information that is added to all those objects; adding names to the roads, buildings having an addtess and what type of building they are, the direction a river is flowing and how many rivers flow into or out if a lake.

All of that is just information, where an what things are, it doesn't actually do anything. That is a map.

Navigation software takes the information about the roads and how they are connected together along with their names and combines it with addresses to show you how to get from one address to another.

You could also have software that simulates the ecological effects of rerouting a river from a lake, or damming a river.

You could take data from a map to show you all the power lines that are near trees that will need to be trimmed and give estimates to your employer on how many people to hire for tree trimming, and then combine that with a map of buildings to show how many customers would be without power if a tree branch triggers a circuit to open.

Navigation is just one part of what a map could be used for, and probably one of the only parts that most people would use a map for.

OpenStreetMap started out just being a map of streets, hence the name, but it has grown to be this massive collection of information. Then there is all of tools that decide what to do with the information. OsmAnd is a good tool for simply displaying the data. It can provide navigation but it's not the best.

0-100 is pretty survivable

I can tell you've never been outside when it was 0°F

Initially claiming she left her baby sitting in a partially filled bathtub for five minutes while she went to the adjacent laundry room

This isn't exactly a good excuse either.

Thank you for pointing that out. I knew Firefox had updated to enable desktop add-ons to work with mobile but I didn't see Sponsor Block when I took a quick look.
