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.

Yes but then you’d need NATO’s approval. Remember how Erdogan put all sorts of 'but’s to Finland and Sweden, countries with way more wealth (and more arguments to be included in NATO) than one like mine

Me from lemmy.world and thought SJW was a good place to move:

Not true, there’s also we poor countries who can’t afford hanging around with the nice guys in the block

You just answered yourself. Just call it CUNAFHC - Collaborative Union of Not-Absolute-Fuck-Head-Countries

Friendly self-reminder to never open the comment section on Phoronix ever again.

I’m “stuck” with an Apple Thunderbold Display. Can’t deny it’s great, sturdy, integrated mic, camera, usb ports and ethernet are actually a great thing to have and everything in it looks great despite it being “old” - but I have a super annoying issue where at like 70% of the times I turn on the computer the display won’t turn on - I have to restart the PC with the REISUB thing, then turn it on, then press f9/f10 like wanting to go to the boot/bios screen, then turn the PC off, then turn it on again - it’s until that time the display turns on. All I just know about this is that this is most probably due to the Titan Ridge driver in the Thunderbolt adapter my PC has, an HP Elitedesk 800 g4.

So I was looking forward to this and, if they ever have success/luck and I have money, potentially getting a Mac Mini M4 new/second hand to replace the PC. But maybe I should be looking forward to another monitor brand that offers the same features and quality.

But at what cost

Though I understand your 4 point (and one point I was chewed here in Lemmy for pointing something like that on an opensource community), and I don’t know this Delta app, what features would be missing from WhatsApp? Maybe video calls for sure, but I’d think stuff like “statuses”, “channels” or this ai shit aren’t really needed to communicate with someone

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

Riding tubes in a so-called third world country, it’s been more than 10 years I’ve found tires with Schrader valves at local bike shops. Everyone and their grandma seems to be selling and getting prestas - for bycicles, that is.

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.

This is something that solves people’s needs, not only something that is eco-friendly

Sorry, but no. That solves just a minuscule problem in the litany of problems (good intentioned) venezuelans are having here. Rappi workers still are working for an utterly abominable corpo with ridiculous wages and no benefits. And third world tech bros, conservatives, so-called “enterperneurs” and the local oligarchy are lobbying against the labor reforms the government is trying to get approved trying to improve this situation. Loans for electric bikes are not a radical solution in this case.

Pick sells, but who’s buying?

Honest question, what use has data transfer graphs?
