Don’t try to do client work bound to a deadline on gimp. Because the stress will make you close gimp at the simplest inconvenience. That’s what happened to me. But trying to work with it on my free time. And installing the photogimp addon helped alot. Gimp still has a long way to go.
Subliminal messaging.
Next. They should drop everything and solely focus on improving ux & ui . Every time I open gimp to try and get acclimated to it, I close it back out of frustration. Nothing is intuitive in that software. Not even the naming of the tools settings.
I don’t think it has that big of an impact. But most open source developers forget that it might end up being used by more people than just them .
Mastodon. Lemmy, do a web search especially for Lemmy on reddit and you are more likely than not to end up on threads about the singer . and don’t get me started on the many unpronounceable names of open source projects.
Adopt windows file system with letterer partitions as the root. Plus most people who use computers are used to this paradigm already. Who ever came up with Linux’s file system has poor organization skills
Are the lenses perfectly round. Or have you had to scan them before modeling ?
I like partitions to be at the root of my file system. And dedicate each one to a specific use. And even dedicate a separate hard drive for my personal files. When in need of transfer or repairs just move this drive to another PC and carry on the work while the former PC gets repaired or nuked.
This is one of my biggest gripes stopping me from switching to Linux. I just can’t give-up windows’ partitions. I find Unix/Linux file system to be incompatible with how I like storing my files.
Statcounter’s graph of iOS market share points to more than half 56% on Norway, so I bet if there is a need for replacing windows in Norway they will swing to apple instead of Linux.
Of all countries Norway might be among the last to switch to Linux.
Rich countries tend to go the apple way.
Oh shit. Now that I have checked, it was turned on by default on mine too.
What’s wrong with you mozilla ?? Firefox was supposed to be the alternative
It is easier to compromise a device than to try and compromise encrypted communications.
You are telling me this has been going on for almost a decade now, and no one ever noticed ?
So we trust open source apps under the premise that if malicious code gets added to the code, at least one person will notice ? Here it shows that years pass before anyone notices and millions of people’s communications could have been compromised by the world’s most trusted messaging app.
I don’t know which app to trust after this, if any?
Linux Mint is king. The rest are imposters 🤪
I know I shouldn’t dunk on free software. But I have never been frustrated by a software before like I was with blender. Everything seems half developed. And I always need hacks I never knew I needed to complete the smallest of projects. Modeling tools are half finished.
Like try to snap the knife tool to the midpoint of an edge? no luck. Try to constrain the knife direction to one of the vertex directions ? No luck. Try to make the curve profile width consistent in 3d? no luck . do proper precision modeling ? Impossible . snapping in unreliable half of the time. and on and on and on .
I am very grateful for the free software and the devs hard work. I bet trying to make blender do many things at once keeps it in a state with many unfinished tools .
Browsers are leading slower and slower
That’s because of heavy use of JavaScript and frameworks like React. Websites like Facebook are a nightmare to deal with.
++ social media has killed personal blogs. Which is one of the biggest losses to me.
It feels the same with this account. I don’t know if it is because of the update or because of this instance
Ubuntu. The whole interface paradigm puts me off.
This place shall not die. Keep the party going guys.
My comment wasn’t about specifically using gimp on Linux and dumping Mac and windows. But just about how to getting used to gimp in general.
Linux is still lacking many other professional grade software so even you find a PS replacement on linux. Other software problems might pop up.
