Google Photos has identical duplicate detection, where if you have uploaded photos to Google Photos already, it will not re-upload the same photo (each photo file has a unique "Hash" that allows us to determine this).

Hence, Google Photos avoids uploading duplicates, when different upload methods or devices are used, as long as the photos aren’t edited. There is no easy way to remove duplicates, but some of the following may help: 

A faster and more efficient way of moving your photos to another account is by sharing a link to the photos between the two accounts.

1. Log in to Google Photos using the account from which the photos have to be transferred.
2. Select the photos you want to transfer as explained above. Alternatively, move them to a new album and share that album with your second account.
3. To create an album, click the '+' sign on the top right after selecting the photos you want to share.
4. From the options that appear, select 'Album' to move the photos to an album.
5. You can move the photos to a new album or an existing one. For transferring photos to your second account, click the 'New Album' option.
6. On the next page, you can add a name to your album, such as 'Shared'.
7. Once the album is created, click the share icon on the upper right side to view the sharing options.
8. Google Photos will suggest a few contacts with whom you can share the album.
9. At the bottom, you will find a 'Create Link' option. Click on it to create a shareable link.
10. Google Photos will notify you that people with whom the link will be shared will have access to the album. Click the 'Create Link' button to continue.
11. Once the link is created, copy it manually or click the 'Copy' button to share it.
12. Now, sign out of this account and log in to your second account, or log in using a different browser.
13. Paste the link you copied into the address bar, and you will get access to view the album.
14. Click the 'View Album' button to view the photos in the album.
15. Now, select the photos you want to transfer to this account and click the '+' sign to create an album here.
16. Finally, create a new album and name it something like 'Transferred' as you did with the other account. The photos will be added to the album in this account.

Note: Make sure the upload quality for your second Google account is set to 'Original' so photos are uploaded in high quality.

In the same manner, you can select and move all your photos from one account to another. ///

Google Photos is smart enough not to duplicate pictures. So transfer albums like this, then start selecting ALL the pictures in the old account. In the new account, create/add them to the same album ("!Old account" for example). These will show up in your new account.

Once they are all transferred, you can delete the "!Old Account" album; the pictures will remain.

Is this really where we’ve come to in this world? You can have a depraved opening ceremony with bearded men in dresses dancing alongside children, you can mock one of the world’s major religions, and no one is fired, yet a sportscaster who's been doing this since the 1980s offhandedly makes a joke about females putting on makeup and his career is over? This is Wokeworld, and normal folks aren’t welcome here. //

The 2024 Paris Olympics has gone full Woke dystopian.

The opening ceremony was filled with transgend*r mockery of the Last Supper, the Golden Calf idol, and even the Pale Horse from the Book of Revelation.

The Olympics has made it clear that Christian viewers aren't welcome.

If you look at what the left has done, they have radically taken this out of context and, in fact, aggressively lied about what I’ve said. The left has increasingly become explicitly antichild and antifamily. They’ve encouraged young families not to have children at all because of concerns over climate change.

Gowdy attempted to trap Vance by pointing out that numerous Americans, including former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Senator Tim Scott from South Carolina, and Founding Father George Washington never had biological children. By highlighting these people, Gowdy aimed to challenge Vance's views on the importance of family structure, suggesting that childlessness does not diminish one's ability to serve the country effectively or possess strong leadership qualities. This rhetorical move was intended to put Vance on the defensive and question the validity of his stance on the matter.

Here is a shocker: Vance agreed with Gowdy's assessment because the Fox News host completely missed the point of what Vance was saying in 2021 or purposely misinterpreted it.

Vance said:

Vance agreed with Gowdy’s assessment that “direct offspring are not necessary to be fully invested in the future of this country,” but went on to say being a parent “really does transform your perspective.”

“So this is not a criticism, and was never a criticism, of everybody without children. That is a lie of the left. It is a criticism of the increasingly antiparent and antichild attitude of the left,” Vance said. //

"I’m going to keep on calling that out, because I think it’s important for parents to have a voice,” he said. “I’m proud to be on the ticket with President Trump, a real defender of parents and families."

For the next 100 days, every conservative should focus on the Word-Salad Queen and her defense of Biden. The focus must be on her and her full-throated covering for Biden. She claimed that Biden was brilliant. She claimed he ran circles around staff and policy wonks. That was a pernicious lie. She knew that Biden was a cognitive mess. She admits that she met with Biden on an almost daily basis. She hid the undeniable, inescapable fact that Joe Biden was a shell of himself even four years ago. She hid his decline for political profit at the expense of the country. She lied. Repeatedly.

Next, conservatives must repeat her policy positions. Her policy positions are not moderate, they are a leftist’s wet dream. Harris is not a moderate. She never has been. She is Bernie Sanders in a pantsuit and not nearly as adept at presentation as Bernie.

And, finally, Kamala Harris is a deer in the headlights without a teleprompter. She will implode when she tries to defend Biden’s record and her own positions. Harris is sentient, but she is stunningly bad at public speaking. Her word salads are albatrosses around her shoulders. //

It’s been often stated that whoever is the focus this November, that person will lose. Biden's administration was a trainwreck. Let that be the talking point. //

Offense all day. Take any interview and as soon as they ask their ridiculous question. Pivot and attack Kamala. Accuse her of the worst economy ever. The worst treatment of women ever. The worst treatment of muslims blacks and gays . The worst treatment of kids. Blame her directly for the stabbingdeath of nutiple girls. Dont worry about details/facts. Let them play defense and when they do ask them why. Every repub needs the memo. You dont go on shows to answer ridiculous premises only to attack. //

Inflation was 1.4% in January 2021 when Joe Biden took office.

What’s hilarious is you just admitted you’re making it all up. If you can make all the inflation claims you have, shouldn’t you know all those numbers?

You want to do spending, moron? OK, let me point you to more facts.

From 1 January 2021 through 31 December 2023 the Biden cabal spent $19.23T. From 1 January 2017 through 31 December 2020, the Trump administration spent $19.09T. That means Biden spent more money in three years than Trump spent in FOUR YEARS!

By the way, the Biden administration started their spending binge in March 2021 with the American Rescue Act, following that in August 2021 with the Infrastructure Bill, and continuing with the Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022.

Here’s where I do what you never do; I provide a source reference. I’ve told you before that every time you try to lie about an objective fact, you prove you’re a lying moron. 🤡

Providing a reminder of that was an incredibly bizarre and concerning scene on Monday. Standing on an airport tarmac next to Air Force One, Biden was asked about his newly proposed Supreme Court "reforms" being "dead on arrival" in the House of Representatives. The president then quipped, "That's what he is," referring to Speaker Mike Johnson. When pressed for clarification, he doubled down, saying, "He is dead on arrival." //

Given the mental fog of dementia and reversion to childlike outbursts, I sort of (mis)understood it as someone with no intelligent counter saying the equivalent of "well so are you".

But a) it is not impossible that another Crooks/someone takes it as marching orders and acts. And b) it clearly illustrates the unfitness for office of Mr. Brandon. //

They’re not bothering with the drug cocktails anymore. He’s going to be completely off the rails from now on. The doctors who were treating him in DE every weekend probably told the party he can’t survive anymore of their speedballs and the party said, “f— Joe, he’s served his purpose.”

Ever since my little boy came into the world, I've steadily become a different person than I was before he was around. The more he grows, the more I do, or at the very least, the more I notice my perspectives change. //

Imagine being 42, child-free, stress-free, and being this happy.

The right hates this.

Is being child-free less stressful? Absolutely. At nearly two, my son is a gremlin who has two modes; asleep or going wild. When he's not in the house, I feel my muscles relax and my focus return.

But ease does not make for happiness. The question isn't whether your life is easier, the question is whether your life is filled with joy. That little gremlin is a joy to have. He gives my life far more purpose than something beyond myself and represents something much larger than me. Watching him grow is like watching a slow miracle unfold right before my eyes. My life is harder with him in it, but far better overall.

I don't need to use the "when you're on your deathbed, you'll want to be surrounded by your children and not your cats" argument. I can tell you that the joy is in the present, turning these little gremlins into proper people.

But the grandest of childless takes are the ones I see in positions of power. I'm amazed at how often school boards are made up of childless bureaucrats.

Four short episodes I would like to share of his month-long internship for Kamala Harris:

Senator Harris vocally throws around “F-bombs” and other profanity constantly in her berating of staff and others. The staff is in complete fear of her and she uses her profanity throughout the day.

As Attorney General, Senator Harris instructed her entire staff to stand every morning as she entered the office and say, “Good Morning General.”

Never once during the month-long internship did Harris introduce herself to our son (as he was only in an office with 20 paid employees) and staff was too intimidated by her to introduce him. The only acknowledgment was a form letter of “thanks” signed by Harris given to him on his last day of service.

Gregory was also given instructions to never address Harris nor look her in the eye as that privilege was only allowed to senior staff members. //

Variations of this quote have been attributed to a number of individuals:

"You Can Easily Judge the Character of a Man by How He Treats Those Who Can Do Nothing for Him."

Trump is well known for being exceptionally kind to low-level employees and perfect strangers.

Happiness is not achieved by the conscious pursuit of happiness; it is generally the by-product of other activities.

-- Aldous Huxley (1894 - 1963), Vedanta for the Western World, 1945  

Prank your friends, family and co-workers into believing their workstation has crashed!
Simply follow the instructions below!

When a device is deleted, the files associated with it and no other device are deleted as well. This is usually desired behavior, and in fact a common reason for deleting a device is to free up space in the account. It is not possible to restore a deleted device or its files, so before deleting anything you might want to review the details of exactly what files will be deleted. In general terms, that would be those files that both (1) originated with the device being deleted and also (2) are not associated with any other device.

To delete an entire device, open the Manage tab in the SpiderOak One or Groups application. Next, select the device you would like to remove and then click the Remove button. When prompted if you would like to remove the device, choose yes. This will remove the device and those files that are associated with it and no other device. For more details, see What Files Are Deleted When You Delete a Device.

It is not possible to restore a deleted device or its files, so make sure that this is what you want.

You may find yourself with a SpiderOak backup device that is no longer associated with a computer that is available. For example, you may still have a particular device in your account but the physical computer associated with it was disposed of long ago. Best practice is to delete a device that is no longer needed. This will make your account's journals less complicated and improve performance.

You might however need to retain the device, perhaps for compliance reasons or to retain the associated backed up data. In that case, you should update the device to our most recent version for ONE or Groups.

Keeping One updated and connecting to the server

The very first thing we recommend to everyone experiencing issues with One is to update the One Backup software for ALL devices on the account. One needs to be able to communicate with all ‘active’ devices listed, even if those devices are no longer being used, or are not in your possession anymore. Please make sure to remove devices from the account that won't be updated or used going forward- One is not meant to act as a cold storage service, and using it that way can unfortunately lead to problems (see Deleting Devices for removal of devices from the account).

In accordance with the 2015 Electricity Law of Liberia (ELL), LERC is empowered under Section 3.3 to issue Regulations designed to implement the law. Therefore, the Commission prescribed these Regulations:

“No, not at all,” Vance told a Fox News reporter in an interview that aired Sunday. “It doesn’t hurt my feelings.”

“Look, the price of admission — meaning, the price of getting to serve the people of this country — is the Democrats are going to attack us with everything that they have. I think it’s an honor,” Vance continued.

“As Harry Truman once said, ‘if you can’t take the heat, stay out of the kitchen,’” he said.

The fact that Democrats even went with this strategy reveals a remarkable inability to read the room. If you think men can get pregnant, dress up in explicit costumes, wear African garb when you’re a white woman, and call other people “weird,” then perhaps you might consider taking a look in the mirror.

The reality is that there is weirdness in each political movement. Indeed, one has to be at least a little weird to run for office. But when parts of your political party resemble a Ringling Bros. circus, it is not a good idea to call other people “weird,” especially when social media is a thing.

Search 20-46075 and you should be able to see its most recent flights; RCH046 on June 29 and July 1.

Departed from McConnell June 29 around 21:00Z headed west. Left the CONUS near Ft. Bragg, CA and dropped from tracking. Picked up a brief blip as it passed over Hawaii.

The July 1 RCH046 flight track picks it up again over the UAE, through the Persian Gulf to Turkiye and across Europe. We see a loop off the coast of England north of RAF Mildenhall for refuelling.

It appears again with a brief blip off the coast of Iceland and disappears again until it re-enters the CONUS over Lake Superior.

I searched through all the 16-46.., 17-46.., 18-46.., etc Pegasus aircraft’s in the fleet and any flights around July 1 to try to figure out which one it was.

Once I landed on 20-46075 and googled it I found a good write up on Twitter/X by “MeNMyRC”

The funniest part is it also couldn't refuel itself - and instead had to rely on the 135 that it is supposed to replace to keep it in the air lol. //

The boomers hate them because the remote boom ops are complete garbage. Latency and precision issues. They've been plagued with design and electrical issues on multiple fronts and the entire fleet has been grounded more times than the max. Read up on the history - the 46 and the 35 alike are the most hated aircraft in the af. The funniest part is it also couldn't refuel itself - and instead had to rely on the 135 that it is supposed to replace to keep it in the air lol.

We love the KC135 as it only requires three man crew. The 46 needs 8-10 men to do the same job
