Yeah, Adobe sucks major ass but while I’ve been meticulous for quite a few years to choose software that’s either FOSS or at least had native Linux versions, I can’t see myself doing the photography stuff in the alternatives. I’m moving more and more away from that work for moving images instead and the main programs I use for that do work (DaVinci resolve, blender). Thank you!

I’m a pretty advanced user on Windows and I sometimes use the command prompts but it’s pretty darn rare, and I certainly don’t have any commands memorized. I have a couple basic commands memorized for the run tool but even that rarely comes up. I don’t tinker with my machine for the sake of it though, ideally I want it to “just work” and I’d want the same thing from Linux. And I do want that but unfortunately there’s a few programs I need for my work that don’t run on it (namely lightroom and Photoshop). Spending time on Lemmy did make me want to install a dual boot mint though, I have a separate drive for it I need to move from my old machine, doing that soon^tm.

This particular program would work great in combination with old school German/Dutch toilets with the poop shelf, take a pic after the deed and let the program tell you how you need to adjust your diet.

Pretty depressing thread tbh, still the same old misconceptions and that sentiment that anything they have to do is a huge roadblock and means Lemmy is doomed to failure, like picking a server is such a huuuuge hurdle…

Pierogi?

It could indicate that investors don’t like these moves and see it as a risk for the future of the company. Or it could indicate that line goes up or down randomly, who knows, not the folks on wall street that’s for sure.

Right that sounds reasonable then. Switching boot order is a piece of cake and the Linux drive would be the only 128gb one in the whole array (I have a lot of drives, including a setup with stablebit drivepool, will that work?). After I’m done with this current gig in a couple days I should have a small window of free time, maybe I’ll finally get to it!

Caveat number 3 is the reason I’m still on windows, I take it that’s still not an option then.

Yeah is that completely safe? I’m really tempted to try out Mint and I have an old M2 from my previous machine I could format and use for it. The PC is my work/editing station though so can’t afford any risk. I can’t really make the switch since I’m still dependent on LR+PS (Adobe…) but most of my other software should work, and I’ve just always wanted to get into Linux but not sure if it’ll actually benefit me and my work or if it’s just gonna cause me even more hassle than windows currently does.

I’m familiar with messing around in the BIOS, changing boot priority and formatting stuff and whatnot.

So we’ll have to go to libre office to spell arse?

You mean dead cat bounce I think?

That, and the inevitable bureaucratic nightmare that awaits for standardising across makes and updating the infrastructure.

Well I don’t know if it’s a common thing but I heard someone from there tell me about this so I thought that’s what you were referencing. In their story it was even about how you were limited to hunting a certain number of squirrels per day, but maybe they were winding me up haha.

Man at least get your stereotypes right, the squirrel eaters are in Québec, they are not a common critter in Europe.

The only reason I opened the article was to find out what FSR meant. They never actually spell it out, you can understand it’s AI upscaling from the context but I guess they just assume you know the acronym…

OP sneakily making Lemmy do their homework, well played.

That settles it then, I’m getting an Aston (like I needed more reasons to lust after them haha).

Yeah I have to heavily curate my YouTube but if you do it’s still full of really great stuff. I also have to keep myself on top of it, it’s easy to let yourself slip into trash content now and then.

The comments are pretty universally bad though, even on the good content.

I can’t tell if that song is for or against the grandchild scam, it seems to just kinda state that it exists.
