Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Better than waiting for GIMP to load fonts, I'd wager.

    Gimp sucks.

    And ps works with wine if you have it on windows already and drag over some system32 dlls

    I've been using Gimp for simple things, and it's been OK once I realized that whatever I want to do, I should look it up first instead of just trying to figure it out through trial and error.

    When I first used the Adobe suite it was on a Mac, I assumed it ran best on non-Windows machines. This was in 2005... Why would they have to make it so hard to use on Linux?

    It's a conspiracy, orchestrated by Big Adapter

    I'm just about to windows myself back again but use Chris Titus mini windows version

    Edit: I will really miss KDE though... Edit2: so far the Chris Titus mini windows is quite good for a windows. No junk except for the junking install. Edit3: someone needs to make KDE for windows. I don't know or care how but I need it.

    How do I run Paint Shop Pro 9 on Linux?

    [–] jelloeater85@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

    Or just run it in a Windows VM and save yourself a ton of grief? Win10 LTSC works just fine.

    [–] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

    Meeh, I dual boot.

    Me running from DP to HDMI to ~~DP~~ DVI on a family members computer because I had those cables/adapter.

    My answer to things like this is "why would I want to do something like that?".

    [–] kitnaht@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

    Just use Krita or the Affinity line of software (works under WINE pretty much flawlessly).
