The update announcement is precisely about adding this one feature. But reading is hard, I know.

Wild concept here. Raster as background and marking up as vector graphics on an overlay. Or use gwenview which is designed exactly for that.

Inkscape? Maybe.

Gimp is not a drawing software, so it makes sense it doesn’t have a dedicated “draw complex geometric figures” tool by default. It does have a shape selection tool. Anyways, it all depends on what you’re trying to achieve. Krita is for painting, gimp is for image manipulation, inkskape is for vector graphics. Paint.net is a weirdo that does everything but doesn’t do any of those things well enough.

But if your roommate says he isn’t a thief, however he always hangs around with the local gang and continuously brings used stuff that he has no way of legally acquiring since he doesn’t even have a job. I don’t know man, you have to start asking questions.

Mike is not a nazi, he just goes to the nazi bar because he likes the beer.

Yeah, because thieves go around making public statements of “we are thieves!”

No, but they are forever beta. They still lack a ton of features I use.

The only thing I dislike of heliboard is their swipe function requires Google binaries. Most FOSS keyboards either lack some feature I use or are immersed in wild controversies.

Why does every mobile keyboard developer have some controversial shit? I just want to text in peace.

Fuck cars

Because then you’re just describing Audacity. The concerning feature has to be intentionally activated by the user. And if you download and build it yourself then that part of the code isn’t even accessible. You hace to modify the code to activate it before you build it. I’m actually glad with the way they handled it. They listen to the user base and if you follow tantacrul he regularly consults changes with the users.

Ok listen. That is the way governments want you to think in order to get away with erasing your right to privacy. It’s the old “I have nothing to hide” argument.

But here’s the thing. You have a butthole. I have a butthole. Everyone in the planet has a butthole. Having a butthole is nothing to be ashamed of, it is not a crime to have a butthole. No one will prosecute you for having a butthole. But that doesn’t mean it is ok for the government to see everyone’s butthole. That’s your right to privacy.

If you want to protect children, you turn to social scientists to understand the problems and identify the ways in which to catch and prosecute offenders. Weaponizing surveillance on everyone in order to catch a very tiny percentage of population who might be committing a crime is hurting everyone.

Privacy is not about empowering pedos, it is about protecting everyone’s rights. Erode one right and you erode all rights. Once the system is in place, then political surveillance to destroy democracy and install fascism is what follows.

Ironically, the global fascism is currently run by pedophiles.

Neat project, shame on the basic premise. Just remember to delete your second brain once in a while, for the health of your first one, and actually use it for something creative once in a while.

Except, it is made up. All terms are made up. It still means something different to different groups of people.

The game industry was assaulted by the MBAs long ago. They have this financial concept of leaving money on the table. That if you aren’t skinning your customers alive for all they have then you are losing money.

Then there was that infamous power point slide that got leaked where, basically, the plan is to use games to bring in audiences then use gambling techniques to hook on whales then cash them for eternity. Thus “live services games” were born.

It feels like uncreative, predatory shit because it is. It’s a finance people idea, not a creative game developer idea.

I’m “excited about buying a new vacuum cleaner” old. Because I already bought the rugs.

Generative AI. Source is an instagram page that posts these kinds of memes daily. The image didn’t exist before October 2024.

In the Soviet Union, the Proletariat had taken control

Then why did they kill so many peasants and workers?

The outcome was quite positive for the Working Class.

Except for the ones who are dead.

[…] implementation of the dictatorship [of the proletariat] was clearly defined by Lenin as early as in 1906, when he argued it must involve “unlimited power based on force and not on law,” power that is “absolutely unrestricted by any rules whatever and based directly on violence.”

Leszek Kołakowski

Never idolize anyone. I think the lack of certainty in the number of deaths Lenin was responsible for adds more horror to his decisions. No matter how pretty his ideas were, or how cute he looked with a cat, an oligarch is an oligarch, and as soon as a revolutionary acquires power, they become the oppressor.

Fascism has no ideology. They will just take any varnish that makes them look acceptable in the short term. Just like fake tan, it’s just gold paint over a turd.
