No afaik but I’d bet there’s at least someone working on that - it’s needed asap, as car tires shed a quarter of all microplastics in the environment.

We are all so entitled.

That’s exactly my issue with GIMP. We are all so entitled, even GIMP devs.

You don’t want to include a feature to draw an editable circle/square/polygon? Fine, but then don’t get superdefensive nor “counterattack” when people ask you about this feature. All in all, pretty much every other image manipulation program has it, so it’s understandable people wonder why GIMP doesn’t have it. I for one still can’t wrap my head around why this is a no-no for some people. It doesn’t make any sense.

When I was majoring as graphic designer I used to use GIMP for a bunch of stuff, even played with python-fu and saved me some time I never would have saved with Photoshop or some shit like that, but even back then they always answered to everything some variation of “we are short on resources”. Well at that time Krita (which was even called Kpaint) had even less resources than GIMP and look at them now.

But after that they “were contacted by people who were investigating the case” or something like that and retracted.

I remember reading investigators on the case saying that it was indeed pre-recorded. Plus there’s the fact that this happened in two different TV networks within few hours where they showed the same video - only that in the first incident their engineers were around, understood what was happening and managed to overpower the pirate’s signal before the recording ended.

I know the Hammerhead Karoo 2 runs Android and would bet something like the one I use, the Wahoo Elmnt Roam 2, does too. Maybe Garmins too.

That being said, with the recent scandal about the Garmin watches I’d think twice before getting a Garmin and for the stuff I’ve seen the new Wahoo Elmnt Ace isn’t worth that much money. The main drawback about the Karoos seem to be their battery life but don’t take my word on that.

There are some other brands as well like Bryton or the new Coros, but I think you should take a peek at those to see if you like them.

All in all I guess almost any “big brand” can offer something you’d like. I ended spending my bucks on a Wahoo because (1) non-touch screen, and well thought hardware (buttons) interaction, which is great for rainy days that here are quite a lot; (2) its simple UI, specifically I love the numbers typeface (yes I know this is ridiculous, but still I find it beautiful and simple to read); (3) gets regular updates and (4) doesn’t involve microtransactions of any kind.

Though I wish in all of that sea of data you can get of them someone offered a field like “you’re in this street, intersection with this other street” to be available in their data screens so no needing to go to a map screen to see where you are at.

My parents are almost completely technological-illiterate (i.e. due to old age my father doesn’t even have a cellphone nor knows how to use it, and my mother barely can know how to do calls in her phone - both of them don’t know how to use a computer) but they know they don’t know about stuff - so hearing stories like that kind of make me be thankful they’re like that and that they will hear me when needing some advice or need to do something involving something tech-y

You know, besides the funny/cute/interesting videos that made it to its home page that I save to show them to my mother, the only other reason I haven’t deleted Reddit yet is the r/forhire sub.

Of course, not a Linkedin alternative per se, but it seems to me there have been people that has found full time jobs thanks to that sub. I’ve had the chance to get some small gigs and earn some extra bucks working for great people (and being scammed by awful people in other “similar” subs, but that’s another story).

I was bummed when I got here and found out there are some similar communities here but with almost no subscriptors and no posts whatsoever.

GIMP and photoshop have always been photo editing tools first and foremost

I mean, GIMP literally means “General Image Manipulation Program”.

Excusing the lack of proper shape drawing tools as “it’s a task for vector software” while at the same time having things like the ability to define vector masks is complete nonsense.

Or, this might blow off the minds of some people, not using transparency.

Honest question, what use has data transfer graphs?

Even Microshit tried and gave up because it was so hard

Not exactly. Yes a browser engine is one of the most, if not the most, complex pieces of software.

But if it was almost impossible to create a web engine then this, or KDE’s KHTML, or Servo, or NetSurf, or Kraken, or you-name-it wouldn’t exist.

Then how come (one of) the most powerful tech company in the world couldn’t make it, you ask? They already had a “functional” web engine. But what they had from the beginning was absolute shit that did not respect any web standard. And oh boy we people who fought against that shit trying to support it do know. Its baggage was immensely huge and shitty that after a while and the speed Chrome was taking over they found it was easier to yeet it altogether, and I do hope that piece of shit is burning in hell because it made our lifes so miserable.

Note that Opera did the same thing with their web engine - they gave up with it mostly because they found easier to jump in the Blink bandwagon, without realizing they were making Opera just another Chromium skin without much value, contrary to what Presto was.

Kinda what could happen if one day Microsoft decided to try make Windows to be as functional, fast and permissive as Linux.

More advanced forms of timocracy, where power derives entirely from wealth with no regard for social or civic responsibility, may shift in their form and become a plutocracy where the wealthy rule.

Yikes

I love Gentoo precisely because of Portage, but I think the most badass package install/uninstall syntax has to be that of (the defunct?) Sorcerer Linux:

Sorcerer’s tool terminology is based upon magic words. For example:

• a tool to download, compile, and install software is called a “spell”
• to install a package is “cast”
• to remove a package is “dispel”
• a set of available spells is called a “grimoire”

I got a Logitech MX Mouse Master 3s. Not sure if it can fit into what you want or need because I’m no gamer (like, not even minesweeper) but it has more than 5 buttons.

I set it up with logiops so you could customize its buttons - for example I set up one of its buttons to open KDE Plasma’s overview.

Good mouse overall though the bottom cavity where the wheel resides can get dirty so I have to open it like every couple of months to clean it.

Falkon, because it’s fully integrated to KDE. Though I wish an actual Qt web browser running Gecko (or Servo, maybe one day) existed.

I mean, not that there have been tons of successive civilizations around here, so… And yet if that was the case, you’ll need to take in account that oral lore may have had a hand in the names of places, so it’s mostly improbable that a place has had completely different names with each civilization.

(Edit: people downvoting/replying to this thinking I was talking just about the USA is hilarious - reddit syndrome much?)

In my third world country the real issue is about costs. At this very moment cooking with gas is cheaper than cooking with electric.

The gas provider company mandates an inspection on every home gas apppliance and the installation every 5 years to check for good connections and correct ventilation (if a home does not pass the checks the service is suspended), so I guess at least it diminishes the risks to some degree.

But still since gas is going to be a lot expensive in the following weeks, maybe the tables will turn. But then you’ll need to get an electric stove.

I really wish we could actually “rename” places as their original indigenous names across all America(s). For example my country had an internal turmoil just to keep the original name of its capital city because we love our native people, and yet we keep the incredibly stupid name of “Land of Colon” (imho most probably the most stupid name of any country, ever) because fuck our native people.

I still remember when c/android@lemmy.world scolded me for saying K-9 and Thunderbird were two different apps.
