I'm an artist, and I have that version too, running it under qemu/Win10 (it won't run on Wine), under my Debian-Testing main OS. However, I have actually moved to Gimp 3 recently for all my work. I use it to make collages ( https://www.instagram.com/eugenia_loli ) and edit my scanned watercolor paintings: https://pixelfed.social/EugeniaLoli The only problem is that Gimp can't read my old PSDs that have adjustment layers correctly, so I load them first either on that old Photoshop, or online on Photopea, and then export them as TIFFs, to load them back to Gimp. For my newer work, I just use Gimp all the way.

No, advertising is useful to small businesses and big. What needs to happen, is actual thoughtful regulation, as with everything else.

ARM was bought by the Japanese, it's no longer European. RISC-V is the future.

The US is led by Peter Thiel. Putin is there for convenience.

So you're telling me that he's strengthening Ukraine's military numbers?

Our cat comes to our bed, but she wakes up my husband, and not me. So he's pissed that I let the cat in (she usually sleeps in the stairs between two different apartments, she has a bed there).

In Greece they still smoke there, even if it's banned.

Anticheat is kernel compromise. No one should be using games that use that, or OSes that allow it.

As for fulfillment, unless you need very specific apps to do your job, I'm sure it can be fulfilling with the right DE and distro. For me, I'm using Linux since 1998, and I still prefer Mint over Arch, for example. It just works.

That was true in the past. But in the last 10 years people have stalled their PC upgrades. That's the real reason why they don't move to Win11, because they don't want to buy a new PC. And that's where Linux is going to get that market from MS.

He's not a Russian asset, he simply feels that if the whole world is run by tyrants like him and Putin, then he would somehow he could do whatever he wanted, because it would just be as simple as cutting a deal/buying the privilege (same with the Trump mentality). Musk is the embodiment of why becoming a billionaire needs to be outlawed.

Actually, Musk is not running the day to day operations at spacex, so removing spacex is not really a big need. He was driven out successfully from there a few years ago. But he's still wrecking havoc at tesla.

I have installed Linux Mint 22 in a DELL laptop with a buggy ACPI implementation (the kernel complains about it during boot). The laptop hangs if it goes to sleep (I tried various Linux distros/kernel-versions, the result is the same).

Because of that, I have disabled SLEEP in the firmware (latest version for that laptop btw). So basically, when you close the lid, nothing happens (it just locks the screen).

However, sometimes you might be in a hurry and you close the lid to do something else, and then you forget about it. The result would be for the battery to run dry, which eventually destroys the battery.

My question is: what would be the best way to setup an audible alarm if the battery reaches 20%?

I have 9 more such paintings on the topic, but every time I try to upload something in the "body" of the post, it fails with an error... so I just uploaded just this one. Enjoy!

 
 

More of my art at the open source, federated site https://pixelfed.social/EugeniaLoli (only about 1/3 of it is gouache).

 

This used mostly a payne's gray, raw umber (the "yellow" you see is actually raw umber), and burnt sienna. The clouds were done with M.Graham's Terra Rosa watercolor.

For more of my art you can follow me at PixelFed (I only post a few on Lemmy): https://pixelfed.social/EugeniaLoli

 
 

I painted this using Holbein gouache with only 4 colors: titanium white, yellow ochre, Chinese orange, and primary black.

I paint with both gouache and watercolors, so to see the rest of my artworks you can check my PixelFed page: https://pixelfed.social/EugeniaLoli

 
 
 

Painted with handmade mineral watercolors on 100% cotton paper.

BTW, if anyone's on Mastodon or Pixelfed, you can check the rest of my paintings here (I only post a few on Lemmy so I don't clatter the feed): https://pixelfed.social/EugeniaLoli
