Berlin's new police law, passed with AfD support, authorizes secret home entries to install spyware, mass location tracking, facial recognition, and AI training on citizen data. It's an unprecedented surveillance package as a dangerous erosion of fundamental rights, warning of a slide toward a security state reminiscent of darker chapters in history.

Bash scripting question


Hello everyone,

Hoping that this is a good place to post a question about Bash scripting. My wife and I have run into a problem in PhotoPrism where it keeps tagging pictures and videos with similar names together and so the thumbnail and the video do not match. I decided that rather than try to get her iPhone to tweak its naming it's easier to just offload to a directory then rename every file to a UUID before sending to photoprism. I'm trying to write a bash script to simplify this but cannot get the internal loop to fire. The issue appears to be with the 'while IFS= read -r -d '' file; do' portion. Is anyone able to spot what the issue may be?

\#! /bin/bash
echo "This script will rename all files in this directory with unique names. Continue? (Y/N)"
read proceed
if [[ "$proceed" == "Y" ]]; then
    echo "Proceed"
    #use uuidgen -r to generate a random UUID.
    #Currently appears to be skipping the loop entirely. the find command works so issue should be after the pipe.

# Troubleshooting
\#Seems like changing IFS to $IFS helped. Now however it's also pulling others., don't think this is correct.
\#verified that the find statement is correct, its the parsing afterwards that's wrong.
\#tried removing the $'\0' after -d as that is string null in c. went to bash friendly '' based on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57497365/what-does-the-bash-read-d-do
\#issue definitely appears to be with the while statement
    find ./ -type f \( -iname \*.jpg -o -iname \*.png \) | while IFS= read -r -d '' file; do
       echo "in loop"
       echo "$file"
       #useful post https://itsfoss.gitlab.io/post/how-to-find-and-rename-files-in-linux/
       #extract the directory and filename
       dir=$(dirname "$file")
       base=$(basename "$file")
       echo "'$dir'/'$base'"
       #use UUID's to get around photoprism poor handling of matching file names and apples high collision rate
       new_name="$dir/$(uuidgen -r)"
       echo "Renaming ${file} to ${new_name}"
       #mv "$file" "$new_name" #uncomment to actually perform the rename.
    done
    echo "After loop"
else
    echo "Cancelling"
fi

Haunted with the idea of being the least skilled at drawing, no matter the group I'm ranking myself in, I sat down and did some of the start of Draw a Box.

>time myself for half an hour since it's late
>extend it to 40 min
<time to accomplish the 50:50 split with unreferenced drawing section
>it's hell, trying to squeeze anything into that page

and more interestingly
>draw some ecchi ideas
>reproduce some memorable and simple ecchi pics I remember
>draw a part of the room and put a waifu in there
during each of these I popped a boner which leads me to the question:

Are ero artists OK?
