I like Krita. But to be honest, after years and years of using GIMP, I ironically have nothing but trouble trying to rewire my brain to do things any other way. The same problem that many people have when moving from Photoshop to GIMP.

Also, i fundamentally need DDS files, which Krita (AFAIK) doesn't handle.

"Right Wing" doesn't automatically mean "MAGA", to be fair.

I hate that idiotic narrative they keep pushing.

You've got 90% of the guns? Correction..you have 90% of the civilian guns. The military, who work for the legal government have far more than you do, as well as drones, bombs and tanks. So fuck off with your "We have 90% of the guns" bullshit.

So barely a couple of weeks after stating that despite Intercept Games being shuttered, Private Division would still continue to support KSP2, now we are told that that was basically bullshit...

I'm thankful I never bought KSP2 and continued to rock KSP.

I am the laziest man on earth and even I gave serious thought to planting a garden this year...that's where we're at.

I'm going to out myself as a horrible person here, but I find Rosie Jones painful to watch, for the obvious reason. I'll accept the downvotes, because I don't like that I feel that way. But it is what it is.

I have no issues with her disability. I'm sure she's a smart, funny, talented woman who just happens to have been dealt a shit hand. And she (and by extension anyone else suffering from her same condition) are strong and amazing people who live productive lives because of that and deserve all of my respect.

But watching her struggle to speak even the simplest sentence is just painfully bad television and I personally just accept the fact that I'm a somewhat terrible person who just can't subject myself to it without cringing.

Holy shit that would be brilliant....Andy as the assistant. It's basically been their schtick their entire career...fucking hell I wonder if anyone has ever actually approached them with it when they were trying the american version..

I'm not talking specifically about McDonalds.

Up here in Canada, One of our largest retail grocery chains has been under fire recently for those same practices. That's more what I'm referring to.

There is a limit to the amount prices can go up before people stop buying altogether.

Not when those items are necessities, like food. Damn us poor people and our need to...checks notes...eat.

We also have to remember that prior to 1917, in order to get their cooperation, The British and French promised various Arab states land and independence after the fall of the Ottomans. Only to THEN turn around and form the Sykes-Picot agreement divvying up the land amongst themselves. This is where the idea of a Zionist state first began to be discussed and various Arab groups were betrayed to make it happen.

I'm not saying terrorists aren't evil. But everything in the middle east is the result of "the west" fucking the people over there over for more than a hundred years.

Minimal Menu? (lemmy.ca)
submitted 2 weeks ago by Adderbox76@lemmy.ca to c/kde@lemmy.ml

So....I updated my Manjaro to Plasma 6. Any chance that Minimal Menu (or something similar) exists?

I was not happy to find it gone. It's been a part of my system for so long that I honestly just forgot it wasn't default.

Now it doesn't even show up in the widget search and I'm honestly not sure I can live without it, largely because I can choose to centre it in the display on launch rather than having to choose either a) full-screen or b) right above the icon.

I can't even describe how upsetting it was to reboot after the update....

...but its robot designs were well ahead of the curve for the time.

Open Creative (lemmy.ca)

Just popping in to post about a community to discuss FOSS creative software like GIMP, Inkscape, Scribus, Kdenlive, Blender, etc...

https://lemmy.ca/c/open_creative

I've used them all at one time or another. Since moving to FOSS as much as possible ten years ago, I've learned a LOT about most of the programs, and consider myself a near expert in some (Kdenlive, GIMP) and fairly competent in others (Blender, Scribus).

I feel like having a place where anyone who uses FOSS creative software can both ask questions, share advice, and celebrate each others works, would be a nice addition to the Fediverse.

So feel free to join and post your work, your questions, your news or your tips and tricks.

I'm a one man band as far as modding and maintaining for now, so thanks in advance for your patience while I learn how it all works on the back end.

The tl;dr bot that pops up on every link to an article on Lemmy is depriving those websites of clicks, which deprives them of ad revenue.

The only thing that will accomplish is forcing those websites to do the very thing that we rail about; replacing their writers with crappy A.I because they can't afford to pay for actual content.

We rail against the enshitification of the internet, but when there's a legitimate way to fight back by giving these websites a page view/read/click etc... so that they can attract advertisers, we would rather have a bot summarize it for us, giving them nothing.

Stumbling a bit on how to get some animations to work correctly, (gauges and gear doors where the local axis doesn't line up with the global axis). But making some good progress on getting the details modelled in.

Does Jerboa's search function only work for communities or am I don't something wrong?

On the web, as well as other apps, a search brings up the choice between communities, users, comments and posts.

Haven't been able to make that work on Jerboa.

When is a level of detail considered "obsessive"? Asking for a friend.

Airspeed, Vertical speed, manifold pressure, RPM and fuel flow are all working as expected. Night lighting on the GPS and audio panel is working fabulously. There is night lighting on the center stack, but it's too subtle and will need some adjustments.

Manipulators are going to take a bit longer because I built a lot before really understanding how manipulators worked, so I have to go back and correct some things.

Been taking advantage of a longer-than-expected stretch of under-employment to get some work done on a pet project.
