Yeah I admit I kind of prefer the Gimp site. Are you saying Lemmy isn’t an accurate random sample of normal people in reality?

So far the news and downloads pages still haven’t been updated
If I can’t download it, and the site says the latest version is 2.10.38, is it really released?
Or, you DO find it, but it’s glitchy/outdated (I think there was an issue with Steam). Or you search for the program, find the website, download a .tar.gz, wonder what the hell is this double extension abomination, double click it, doesn’t work, look it up, apparently it’s a type of container like a zip and not a basic program like an exe and instead of using the GUI like a normal person you have to type “tar -xcv” or something that might as well be black magic (I can’t even remember the correct letters), then to actually install you have to find the magic “make” “sudo make install” command, and it still fails.
Much easier to double click the .exe, accept the license agreement, and hit continue a few times.
You don’t have to get rid of all the stuff, it doesn’t break the system like missing sounds or whatnot. Some of its even helpful like weather and news. Plus it isn’t that hard to make a Microsoft account, don’t you need one anyway for Minecraft? And since when do you need drivers for an SSD, don’t those usually work out of the box?
Aren’t liberals and leftists the same thing? Everyone seems to agree that capitalism is bad, the government should provide more social services, our democratic leaders suck (but we should vote for them anyway because republicans are worse), etc.
Honestly Lemmy seems more like a circlejerk than a divide, the only divide I see is how far we need to go to fix/destroy the system. I don’t think I’ve seen a single conservative voice, which is pretty surprising considering Trump apparently won the popular vote, and I’d expect I’d at least see someone from the other side.

That’s why the Java programmer looks happier in the “after” pic. Not as much as Python but it’s still there.

Workers and Resources, as well as Factorio! (Space DLC of course.) I’m starting a new game of Factorio with my brother and already sucked in despite not even having green science yet.

Think raised crosswalks that function as speed bumps at intersections, narrow roads to reduce speeding, that sort of thing.
knexcar@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux continues to be above 4% on the desktopEnglish1·1 year agoEpic is developing Hyperspace for Mac, as well as “standalone” (access Hyperspace in a web browser). Plus many hospitals use Citrix virtualization, so I wouldn’t be surprised if Linux is theoretically possible (though unlikely due to jankiness).
How would they be able to do that if they were already out of the country? Or is it something that “everyone” should set up?
They specifically said they didn’t want that though.
Glad I’m on iPhone where I don’t have to worry about “launchers” and everything works out of the box.
I don’t know but Internet Explorer somehow managed to mess it up badly enough to be widely considered inferior by the vast majority of the population, despite being pre installed on Windows. So I suspect Chrome could fall in the same boat if it’s bad enough. Though I guess there are still open source forks.
