You cannot unsee de oeuf.

  • I've used Photoshop professionally for 20 years and GIMP for about 3 and, to be fair, both of their default interfaces have have their pros and cons. After spending the 2/3 hours it takes to become proficient in one after being used to the other, the comparison mostly comes down to other things e.g availability of tools, raw performance, enshittification etc.

    Don't get me wrong, there are some things that annoy me about GIMP (like any software), but I'll be recommending versions 3.0 onwards over Photoshop every time. Adjusting to the interface is easily worth it.

  • Hoping there is enough time before the next GE for Trump to fall on his face and make the whole thing look less appealing for UK voters. And Farage should be getting hammered as a national traitor for siding with Trump against the UK.

  • Ok, so am I understanding correctly that for example the .py can be anywhere, as long as it is run from a suitable venv folder and the path to it is defined in the command?

  • Good question. I'm quite familiar with the terminal, but I still get confused by things in it that I'm not familiar with, if that makes sense!

  • Thanks for the help! For some reason tab autocompletion doesn't work for me but that's an issue for another day...

    put the .py file in the right place to run inside the venv

    This could be where I've been getting lost. How do I figure out what the right place is?

  • Great choice. And if you do ever find yourself in a hurry for the latest version of something, there is flatpak and appimage.

    It is a wonderful time to be a Linux user.

  • Things have changed in more recent versions of GIMP. Pasting layers is simple now and you can even drag and drop them between images. You can also now use any filter nondestructively, even which Photoshop can't do.

  • I think a bit part of it is that it's simply become harder to live with ADHD and for it to stay under the radar in your life. Rare is the person who can survive in the modern world purely on their wits. It demands that you persevere at jobs, careers and relationships over long timespans, and against an onslaught of things which have been relentlessly developed and refined over generations with the express purpose of hijacking your dopamine system and interfering with your free will.

  • I'm running a couple of smaller chat models on my mid-range new-ish laptop and they're fairly quick. Try out Jan with something like their jan-nano model on whatever you've already got and get a feel for what you can do.

  • What are your favourites?

  • Strange times when a government contract gets cancelled because the government themselves are hopelessly corrupt, rather than it getting cancelled because the company is atrocious.

  • This extremely cool.

  • you can expect 0-2% output from a panel in the winter time

    I can confirm this. My family is off-grid and there have been extended periods the last two winters when it has simply been too dark for too long to depend on the solar without installing 50x more panels.

    Also, the problem with having larger battery capacity to span these periods is that if they don't get fully recharged or cycled properly the batteries get damaged and eventually die. We learnt that the hard way.

    Solar is the undisputed champion for 80-90% of the year but needs to be complemented with something else for the remainder, if you want uninterrupted on-demand electricity.

  • Medical care is fantastic and should be accessible to everyone, but it's not magic. If you eat terrible food it will send you to the afterlife, even with the best healthcare in the world.

  • The only book reviews that get me excited to read a book are from BBC Radio 4. I have no idea why.

  • You can share screen and camera on Jitsi Meet, which is a video-conferencing app. Not sure if there is any recording function built-in but you could just record everything with OBS.

  • Guix has a cool logo IMO.

  • I love being on Debian, everything just working and not living in fear of updates. And any software that I must have the latest version of I just install via flatpak, appimage, distrobox etc.

  • The idea of the UK not having a 'sovereign' nuclear deterrent is based on supply chain stuff.

    There's nothing stopping us launching all our nukes if we wanted to, it's just that we'd have to order some bits in from outside of the country to replenish the missiles used to carry the warheads (which are made here). That's if any of the suppliers were still alive after we'd started nuclear Armageddon...
