I thought everyone called them shoelace condoms.

Now let the shrimp ask a Frenchman the same question.

One browser tab holding a few YouTube visits consumes about 350 MO of memory. I think we have added enough functionality to the browser

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.

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.

It’s because Microsoft was trying to steal mac’s shine.

Subliminal messaging.

You will never get a sharper tip than with a cutter blade.

So this is the time slice in which we get scolded by the machines. What’s next ?

Does anyone know what’s happening to the tariffs ?

We should be able to bootstrap activityPub to GeoCities websites. WordPress integration is taking a long time.

What most Linux advocates hate to admit is that the abundance of distributions discourages software makers from supporting Linux. Because then they will have to deal with bugs specific to each distribution, desktop environment, window manager, x.org or Wayland, and thousands of other variables. Imagine having to spin up a different virtual environment for each use case. It’s a nightmare that isn’t worth it for them.

There are a few GUI programs that let you do that without ever having to interact with the cmd or run a script. + a lot of GUIs are self explanatory and come with a lot of guardrails to not let you mess with your system.

To be real Linux is far from ready to be an all in all viable alternative to windows.

The fact that it has a hundred desktops. An absence of major software like ms office. Adobe and autodesk suites, and not being able to avoid the command line when shit hits the fan. Will make users choose to purchase new hardware rather than make the jump.

I bet Linux will make a 2% after win 10 end of support.

Ads free but with ads ! So words included in a contract don’t carry the same meaning as in the dictionary ?

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.
