There isn’t even a real photoshop competitor in the broader market, but you want to further split the hobbyist devs effort on linux as well?

I think instead it would be better to focus all the effort on a single solution that strives to cover all of photoshops features, with at least equal or better usability. Like has been done with Blender and godot for example. (And GIMP is sadly faaar from it still)

Just run photoshop on linux.

I don’t understand why nobody ever mentions that it just works.

Instagram locked my account and forced me to appeal and send a picture of my face, so I sent a picture of Shrek. They deleted my account

I’ve been a social media hermit for the past 3 years but recently I’ve given up and created a few accounts across different apps again. It’s unreal how strict the requirements are now....

Deckweiss, (edited )

lol good!

Fuck stalky social media. Instagram is just there for farming engagement for ads and make you scroll for hours.

If you want to look at truly great photography or art go to a museum or exhibition.

Why Your VPN May Not Be As Secure As It Claims (krebsonsecurity.com)

Virtual private networking (VPN) companies market their services as a way to prevent anyone from snooping on your Internet usage. But new research suggests this is a dangerous assumption when connecting to a VPN via an untrusted network, because attackers on the same network could force a target’s traffic off of the protection...

Use a killswitch then… no vpn, no internet

tldr:

  • fucking with configs for hours regularly
  • pip & venv doesn’t work on nixos
  • DE broke when installed new DM
  • not much community support

One monitor not working after sleep - “insignificant”

Thats the true Linux nerd mentality :D


Jokes aside, can you check for anything gpu or monitor related in journalctl after the wakeup?

Deckweiss,

Well, steam deck os is from valve, a big player.

The majority of users don’t make any fuss about it.

Deckweiss,

Reminds me of when they started printing “vegan” and “gluten free” on water bottles.

It doesn’t matter much what Linux you use. Rather what is your desktop environment? (KDE Plasma, Gnome, sway etc.)

On KDE for example there is a shortcut to restart the compositor, which might fix your issue.


But in general you might have luck “restarting” it by switching the tty. You do that by pressing CTRL + ALT + some function key between F1 and F8 (the standard gui tty number depends on the distro). Try to switch to a non gui tty and then back.

For example, on my distro I would do:

  1. CTRL + ALT + F1
  2. CTRL + ALT + F2

but on yours it might be F7 or some other.

Don’t panic, thats just me running it on PC, laptop, worklaptop, pinenote, pinephone, steamdeck and in multiple VMs for experimentation. (and don’t forget my randomized fingerprinting setup in the browser)

njal.la

created by the pirate bay founder Peter Sunde.

I had a great experience with the service so far, no hoops to jump through, no obfuscated pricing, no personal data.

Their VPN and Server options are very pricey, but the domain prices are great.

I may have misunderstood your question. If you are looking specifically for a top level domain, I think .org is a decent one, as it is hosted by a non profit organization (even though there were some sellout debates in 2020)

I did that and:

  1. The only file that is correct is only of the regular version, so there are a lot of variations missing - you wouldn’t be able to get the same files as by following the paid way. The upload is 8 years old and seems to be part of an opensource website.
  2. There is another upload from 4 years ago, where the files appear to be called by the same name, but it’s not the same font at all. Seems to be part of a website again, which shows a couple of fonts for comparison. Maybe they’ve put it there as a placeholder.

Thats why I wanted to ask how to safely upload them.

This community's stance on physical media ownership?

I might be asking a rhetorical question here but I was curious as to the overall consensus on physical media. Do support it because, unlike streaming, media can’t take away what you’ve payed for? or are you against because it’s a waste of money when you can “acquire” it through “alternative means?” I’m also...

Deckweiss,

Keep in mind that the average longevity of laser disks is 10-20 years. After that the data gets corrupted and will become unreadable at some point.

Thats why I don’t use cd/dvd/bluray.

Books on the other hand, I love as a physical media.

Fairphone 4 is making hundreds of unwanted connections per day, to the same addresses. (lemmy.world)

So I got Fairphone 4, with /e/ os, a couple of days ago. When I connected it to my NextDNS I saw that it was trying to connect to some weird addresses, like every 5-10 minutes. I searched Internet a bit and found out that it was something with snapdragon cpu and location services. I travel a lot and use Organic Maps for...

Deckweiss,

Banking, usable gps navigation with live traffic, workout tracker that can read and log gps and data from my Polar H10 and smartwatch.

Deckweiss,

I have a linux phone on the shelf, because in real life I need apps that are only available on android …
