No, I didn’t expect it to. But it does." Does it? My wife and I have been married 7 years now and it doesn't feel a single bit different to when we weren't. (Except for the extra €50 or so of tax breaks.) “Yes, it does make a difference. No, I didn’t expect it to. But it does.”

Never hide porn / NSFW because it will inevitably lead to embarrassment, whereas clear labelling will keep you safe. I use CAMERA/YYYY-MM-DD[-EVENT]/UNIQUE-TRANSFORM Where "CAMERA" is usually the camera model, but also "Scanned photos", "Scanned APS", "Scanned slides", "Portrait photos". Each collection of images is in a subfolder that sorts by date, "YYYY-MM-DD", and optionally an event name like "The Zoo". Every original image should have a unique filename provided by the camera. All my scanned slides begin with "AAA", "AAB", etc (you can have up to 676 2-letter folders, 17.576 3-letter folders - I use the first letter to denote different collections of scanned or collected image folders). I add sufficient characters to ensure that every filename is unique - fdupes is a great help. The final part of my filename is "-TRANSFORM", typically "-S" is selected for print, "-R" is rotated, and "-M" is any other modification (usually a little sharpening and levelling). The command find photos -iname "*-*.jpg" will list every modified image. I also store a small "00index.txt" in directories and use txt2png to create an image of the index text, so this image appears first when using a thumbnail viewer (I use GThumb), to show a description (camera, lens, date, event) in each contact print.
