Thanks! I really like the looks of what people put together with the minimalist tiling window managers. I have tried to play around with them a bit. But I just can’t do it. I’ve got 30 years of floating window manager and mouse focused computing experience that makes tiling only managers rage inducing to actually use. Perhaps if I were a programmer, it would be more appealing. But as an artist/photographer, I will stick to what works for me.

Thanks! Yes it’s Zen browser. Took me a bit to adjust to vertical tabs but now that I’ve got it customized I’m pretty sold on it.

It’s probably advanced Excel users, mostly. Also, people who heavily use the collaboration features of MS Office.

It’s too eye searingly bright for my personal preferences. But it is a clean, beautiful desktop. Good work.

Pretty unlikely anyone will want 50yr old WiFi tech for normal use. If the capacitors even last that long. I know vintage computer collectors have to recap a lot of machines to keep them going. As a camera collector myself, the early electronics in cameras are often dead already, or ticking time bombs for failure.

Well the not paying taxes part checks out with Musk at least.

Could be a verse from the orange catholic bible about the butlerian jihad.

A Stalin/USSR/CCP/North Korea and sometimes Putin apologist. Authoritarian communists.

I created !camera_collecting@lemm.ee as a replacement. So far it’s just me posting.

Its only a sin if you feel empathy for the other gods.

Its most likely fiberglass with a faux bronze finish. The budget option when you can’t afford real bronze. Its the cheap dictator special.

I had no interest in this movie either way, but now I want to see if its even remotely as bad as people are claiming it is.

The USA is supposed to be a “free country.” Everyone within its borders should have the right to criticize the country, or anything at all, and not face repercussions from the government.

That doesn’t mean they won’t face repercussions from everyone else in the country, who also have the right to criticize them.

I’ve noticed it too. I seem to have to disconnect and switch servers at least once a day. The capchas are getting out of hand too, but I wasn’t sure if that had to do with the intense AI company scraping going on in general or my VPN use.

The only way to use Adobe products on Linux are the web apps (which are limited) or in a windows virtual machine (slow) or by dual booting into windows (annoying).

You can run really old versions of Photoshop via Wine. But if your needs are that simple, you can probably just use Photopea.

For my use case of Lightroom for accessing and editing final photos across my computer and phone, and occasional photoshop use (mostly for printing) I am able to get by with the web apps, and windows virtual machine.

I would love to drop adobe. But the Lightroom Mobile cloud storage sync feature is too invaluable to me right now and there is no other option that comes close to that feature.

It should be locked at 50 cents per square foot. So a studio apt would be like $500 a month. Its close enough to what prices were in recent memory before the insane jumps in rent cost the last decade.

Yeah, he was just watching that some today.

My kid insists on watching. So I encourage him to like the real heroes like Marshall, or Rubble.

Yeah… Convincing Americans to buy American made goods is supposed to be the whole point of tariffs.

Avoiding buying anything not strictly necessary is probably the best move. Maybe also try to buy non essentials used at garage sales and Craigslist.
