Friggin’ GIMP 2 is sun setting. GIMP 3 with everything replaced in GEGL and non-distructive editing is the new standard. Who tf needs Photoshop?

Thanks Microsoft for spotting that, and thanks to Google and CloudFlare for blocking or redirecting Polifyll.io network traffic.
Credit where credit is due.
Beware conservative governments. They pussyfoot with nationalists, fascists - and worst of all - lobbyists, the backstabbers of democracy.
Poor Russians get the front lines, rich Russians get a new vacation home… why did they get rid of the Tzar again?
Biden 2024 - wear an union around your belt
We’ve been trained to react to sales more or less, since before Steam… but what, am I not going to get that AAA game for $8 that was $70 3 years ago? I mean it sucks balls, because all good AAA games don’t go down in value - in fact, if we look at Elden Ring, GTA, RDR2, they increase in price over time.
If we had a piracy statistic, we’d probably see how much money publishers are losing at this strategy, and that the only way they can ever prevent piracy is by promoting authoritarian regimes that will take away your rights if there’s as much as an R2R file on your system.
So yeah, the gaming market is dumb by default. When publishers cry their salty tears about their intellectual property being pirated, my eyes roll back into my head.
You’re telling me a program you developed 8 years ago, that receives nominal updates, is still worth full asking price, even when the teams and the developers have moved on to other projects and you’re not actually putting that much money into it? Gtfo here. Oh no wait, that was rude. Let me rephrase.
Awwwwww :3 piwacy owie, UwU? Maybe adjust pwicing? No? No sympathy for you, because I don’t have sympathy for grifters.
Here’s a careful reminder that “public domain” is not a worldwide thing ^^; in fact, very few countries have a public domain.
In some cases, if you try to publish something as “public domain” from a certain country, it is invalid - because their judiciary does not define public domain as anything.
It maybe considered public domain, until you die and someone wants that copyright, in which case the family takes precedent over the estate - full stop.
There’s a difference between countries that have common law (US and UK) and those that have civil law (the Nordics), so yeah.
But CC is valid license pretty much everywhere, with a few exceptions.
When it comes to creative work, Creative Commons is the way to go. I know a guy who exclusively releases music under the Creative Commons license.
Here’s a “Chooser” wizard, that asks you some questions and then suggests a suitable CC license for you.
I’m wondering how much of that is just due to misinformation. You have to account for the widespread Zionist influence campaign that’s been going on for decades and that has cost millions.
From Zionists traveling abroad, to Zionists flying people in. A family member got flown in some years ago and ever since they’ve been a propaganda machine in them selves.
It doesn’t matter how many times I tell them that their talking points are factually wrong and framed in a manipulative way, because they themselves don’t understand it.
Brainwashing, when done right, sets it claws into the human brain something fierce. This is more apparent in some countries than others.
It’s funny how people weigh workplaces and companies that suck balls because the money is good… but also understandable that they go somewhere else when they can get a good pay and a workplace that doesn’t suck balls.
And then there’s the burning of the recruitment offices… no, wait, that was average Russians lol
Also, the ridiculous notion that they shouldn’t when they are obviously need to push Russians back into their own country and keep the line there.
US congressmen and the executive office should have nothing to do with military operations and decisions what so ever, because they are a bunch of slack jawed yokels.
Shout outs to the Iraq war. Gotta be one of my favourite useless power vacuums for petro companies.
The intrinsic arc of utter corruption culminates in economic turmoil and ultimately the art of scapegoating. As the English politician realises that all the foreign labourers have been chased off and that they can’t just prop the economy up on ill gotten gains from foreign lands, that they must ultimately direct the ire of the masses inward.
Are you per chance a secret Chinese spy? Who knows?! Perhaps you are one, especially if you’re a member of the opposition party! Seen any red flags lately, hmmmmmm?!? Perhaps you like to dabble in electronics, like a little bit of maths, do we??? Even in our own party??? Moderate?!? You mean… possible collaborator…
McCarthy should be proud. The world was changed forever, and even though it makes no sense, most likely it’s the socialists, libertarians and anarchists who will be blamed, along with black and brown people, the gypsy, the jew, muslims, hindus and even possibly christians, whoever fits the bill, as hungry and angry masses are directed towards a new common enemy.
It’s the release valve of the leading class, the dog the elites can blame for hot air, it’s the scapegoat.

Wtf even is that boat… look at it… it’s like someone in post-apocalyptia managed to get an abandoned ship up and running.
Fucking Lemmy…
Don’t worry, I’ll fix. Re-read the edit.
Yes, yes. They’re all Nazis, and Putin will unnazi Ukraine, right? Because there is no ethno nationalism in Russia, whatsoever. But also, in Europe in general. So I guess Putin should invade and liberate the rest of Europe as well, right? He’s going to unnazi the world, correct?
Edit: /s for some of you. It should be blatantly obvious, at least it is to me, but maybe it’s just because I’m proficient in the language… somewhat. Anyhu, have a nice day, I hope Putin dies in his sleep tonight, byyyyeeee…
Edit 2: Or, isn’t it ironic? Don’t you think?
Pro imperialist news… pro Russia imperialism. Probably pro Chinese belt & road “central kingdom” imperialism also.
I wanna ask the author if boot tastes nice.
Show of force, or dog and pony show?
Really, can’t it be both?
Reach out to the young. Participate and volunteer in youth organisations to help teach them a little bit about society, history and politics at large - and take the academic, pedagogic route goddamn it. Be the wise man, or wise woman, or wise trans, or wise doggy…
“Oh wise one, what is your wisdom?”
Not me though. I’m far to gone to do any of that. I’d probably radicalise them in a different direction, unintentionally.
“Yeah, they’re libertarian comminists now for some reason - I dunno wtf I did”
Damn, these rpm-ostree distroes are taking off. I mean tbf, having a “cloud native” approach (a two buzzword combo) with system images is kind of great for testing, and it shows people can now actually carve out some systems in a relatively effective manner. Good show!
That is supposing it is rpm-ostree, because ostree can actually rebase to an entire different distribution. There’s people getting arch working as an ostree install, and eventually, we’ll have gone over to a new dawn, where you don’t need to reinstall, just rebase.
Goddamn open source is awesome.
