Technology@beehaw.org•Twitter's lost 13% of its daily users and its rebrand has failedEnglish
2·2 years agoI only have a Twitter so links are easier to follow.
As a noob to Linux: THERE’S A WIKI? Awesome!
As a mechanic: Everything I deal with comes with an instruction manual that has the steps written out simply… for a mechanic.
If I didn’t ask the simple questions when I first started, despite having the manual available, never would have learned the basics from someone who knows.
I’m not trying to sound combative or anything, just that sometimes a person needs a small stepping stone of an answer to progress.

75·2 years agoI can kinda see where you get the homophobia but the racism?
Calling someone a cocksucker is just an insult. Might not be used as much today, but watch Scarface for more examples.
And from Wikipedia:
Vatnik or vatnyk (Russian: ватник) is a political pejorative used in Russia and other post-Soviet states for steadfast jingoistic followers of propaganda from the Russian government.
So racist? No. I’m making fun of people who swallow Russian propaganda without thinking.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Which proprietary software do you prefer over their open-source alternatives, and why?English
4·2 years agoI found paint.net a much better experience than GIMP. Now, I’m not that into photo editing, but it’s a much easier user experience for me.
An example being that you don’t need a 7 step solution just to deselect something. You can just click outside of the canvas.
Does it have all the bells and whistles of GIMP? Eh, not really, but there is a forum where people make individual packages for it, and there are a lot.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•In which game did you spend the most hours?English
1·2 years ago-

-
Minecraft since 2011.
-
Binding of Issac with close to 1k hours.
-
Factorio with 850+ hours and currently rising.

I tried. I really tried to like GIMP. The main reason I don’t like it is because it’s trying so hard to be a professional picture editor and the UI.
Why can’t I deselect things? Why does something need to be selected at all times? Let me just click a button and remove the selection outline and deselect things.
No. I won’t help the dev team because I can’t code to save my ass. I turn wrenchs and fix things for a living.
I use other, simpler pic editors. Why should I learn to fly a Boeing 747 when a Cessna 172 will get me where I need to go? I’m making a shit post once every three months, not professional art.
