    In about 5 minutes I get a complaint her storage is full.

    I have unspeakable amounts of pictures of my cats saved. No, I will not delete the ones that are nearly identical.

    Nothing? She already has access to it all anyway…

      This is the way, don’t hide shit, be open. If you feel the need to hide stuff from your gf/bf get out of the relationship. Them having full access is a trust thing and shows you’re mature enough for a serious relationship imo.

        100% my girl doesn’t want to know and I don’t want the headache if she did. It’s okay to have privacy in a relationship

    I’d start by wondering how in the hell I got a girlfriend, then my wife would do the same.

      My girlfriend would break up with me as she finds out that I’m married. Doesn’t matter; imaginary score is still score.

      Technically, your wife is still your girlfriend. You two never broke up before getting married.

    It’ll take her so long to scroll through all the movies and TV episodes that she’ll never get far enough down the file tree to find the niche porn.

        That explains the question in the OP ;)

        Trust is the basis of any relationship. No trust, no relationship. At least not for long.

    She would be disappointed in how untidy my files are.

    "Why is the final version of this project called “test1_b_new_reworked_draft_2_prefinal_dif_font_b_temp_FINAL.png”?

    She would then forgive me because her filing is worse than mine.

        For image files? I know you can save image files and git but I just don’t know what it does with them.

              Idk, but not anything that uses delta compression like git does.

              Game developers use Perforce and Plastic scm which is (supposedly) optimized for images and other binary assets. I’ve never used them, but I’m sure a less-overkill and open source alternative exists somewhere.

                That’s the thing, everything that I could find is a huge project made for storing huge projects, costs a lot of money and requires effort to install and even use. Yeah, naked git basically stores new version of an image for every commit, but nothing beats the fact that you need like two commands to use it and it just works, and storage is very cheap this days. And if you add LFS, it even does some kind of storage compression.

            Not in many. And usually it happens whenever a programmer does non-programming stuff.

          I’m not a programmer and I agree. Only after getting into 3d art I started hearing about it and I don’t think I’ve ever used it, let alone understand it, it’s the sort of thing the technical artists know about. Nobody ever suggested me to use it for my images or 3d models.

          As a visual artist I can confirm the “image_final_final2_b_final” trope is as real as it gets

      My wife is my ex-girlfriend, but we’re still dating. She gets mildly amused when I point this out, but she might just be humoring me.

    If she’s my girlfriend, she’s not going to judge, and instead lend me some of her clothes, help me with makeup, and discover that she’s not 100% straight after all

    She’ll get bored as going through those files. Meanwhile I’ll be trying to figure out if her sudden presence in my life means I’m now bi or homosexual

      VR porn needs to be at least 4k for immersion and you can only get that quality with a paid account. But that’s a waste of money so you pay for one month and fill a hard drive before you cancel.
