At it’s heart, Krita is a drawing program with a few concessions to photo editing/manipulation. Whereas Gimp is a photo editing software with a few concessions to drawing.

Unless Krita decides to go the full adobe route and try to do both (which I doubt will ever happen), a feature like setting a white point (or any feature that isn’t solely useful for photography but not drawing) will ever be in it.

People making the comparison as though Gimp and Krita are both trying to do the same thing are utterly exhausting.

At first I was thinking, you know what…it’s a shame it was a flop, because at least it was a filmmaker trying something original that wasn’t just a sequel/superhero/crap action franchise movie that we’ve seen ad nauseaum.

But then I thought…no…that’s too easy. While that is true, it let’s Coppola off the hook far too easy than he deserves.

A better phrase would be, “It’s a shame that the movie turned out to be hot garbage”, because that is ultimately what made it flop, and we’re doomed to have even fewer investors interested in original content as a result.

Hey. It’s been a lonely year. Don’t shame me, bro.

Optimized Repositories for Cachy only have any real effect on newer processors (x86-64-v3 and up). Of course I can still use it on an older machine, but I was asking if my processor (AMD A10 “kaveri”) would be new enough to take advantage of those optimized repositories. (my research so far says no…AMD didn’t add v3 until the next years processors in 2015)

You’re link actually answered my question, though. So thanks! Don’t know why when I searched it wasn’t finding that page for myself. Maybe my Google-fu needs some retraining.

That’s another option as well. It’s between Endeavour, Cachy, or sticking with Manjaro.

Usually my primary consideration is community size and/or team size. Too many linux distributions seem great, but have low support and eventually just vanish, so I always try to stick to the “bigger boys”. Not saying Endeavour is that, but once upon a time it was the new guy on the block and that’s why I’ve waited to consider it. Same with Cachy. I wait to see if they’ve proven their staying power before considering them.

Clearly hubby got caught with a side-piece in the nest when mom came home early.

The big big exception to this for me is the guys at Red Letter Media.

Even once they got big, they’re still just shitty b-movie lovers who don’t really give a crap about an algorithm. And that’s why I love 'em.

FilmRiot

Used to be a fun channel about DIY filmmaking. They would replicated a number of things using DIY gear (how to make a dolly track, etc…)

After a while, it became entirely about replicating digital effects in After Effects and stuff like that, and when they do talk about hardware, it’s sponsored content about gear that is far out of any amateur filmmaker’s budget.

Whatever someone wants to do with their body is up to them (within legal limits)

To the people who say “she’s selling her body”, I say this:

So are you. So am I. So is everybody. A miner or oil rigger is selling their body to be used as labour for 10 hours a day.

An accountant is selling their body to sit at a desk and crunch numbers for ten hours a day.

We’re all selling our bodies to corporations every day in exchange for a paycheque. If a person is comfortable using nudity for it, more power to 'em.

That’s not a fail. That’s just french.

Season cliffhangers.

Young people will never understand me in 1990, banished up to my parent’s bedroom to use their TV because they had a movie on downstairs, watching William Riker calmly say “Fire” on a borg cube containing HIS CAPTAIN, and then the music du-du-du-du-duuuuu and the words “to be continued”

And then having to wait an entire goddamn 3 months to find out the outcome.

Ending seasons on cliffhangers was magical. It’s still attempted sometimes today, but in the age of binge-watching and in some cases years between seasons, most shows just wrap up one season arc and start a new one. Kind of sucks.

I honestly can’t think of anything less appealing than dealing with other people forever.

And rightly so!

I feel like the answer’s in your question…

I’d have to go with Virus.

Wipes out enough people to give humanity a chance to at least try something new from the ashes of the old world, but doesn’t leave a lingering threat like Zombies or Aliens or something like that. The survivors (ostensibly those immune to the virus) have struggles, for sure, but at least can rebuild without worrying about a constant existential threat.

Privacy. I don’t need Google recording my keystrokes.

Favo kills a lot of time for me. As does 2048 and any nonogram game.

That’s the hit song from my doctors weekend garage band.

It was the seventies.

Cool story, bro.

It has literally nothing to do with the topic. But hey, good rant there, bud.
