Okay I must admit that the Geometry nodes + Grease pencil is a powerful artistic style

I liked the soft gradient XP icons, though maybe that's just the nostalgia talking

It really isn't. I do agree that for most purposes a static network with some central public nodes is the answer, but I want something more dynamic

I was also wondering about this. Flatpaks apparently come with more libraries to interact with other Flatpaks, whereas AppImages tend be purely app-specific and their libraries are compressed for their usage only.

Its very easy to use and my goto image editor, but I say that from a position of familiarity of having learned where everything is and what all the keybindings are over many years.

In contrast, Krita seems like a far better image editor, but because the interface is bewildering to me, I've shied away from it.

xfce4. Stable as hell. X11. Can move windows around using just some keypresses.

I genuinely believe that Apple's fan culture is just as bad as Tesla's fan culture... with the caveat that Apples founder wasn't visibly trying to sway an election with misinformation.

Again, I see a cyber truck, I point and laugh. I see a Mac user, I raise an eyebrow but say nothing.

Despite how he's painted in the article, I actually quite like the guy. He bought an overpriced product but genuinely seems to like it and is a bit annoyed that people are laughing at him not because the product is expensive, but because of the association of the product with the manufacturers shitty politics.

It'd be like laughing at someone who bought an Apple Mac after the founder of the company has repeatedly been seen washing his feet in a toilet. Despite how overpriced and unnecessary the Mac is, people seem to like it and no one is making toilet associations with them. He's asking for the same concession to be made for him.

Well I would, but I really hate the manufacturer, so I'm guessing I'm standing with my fellow mob of pointing and laughing. Sorry about that, my dear.

Similar situation growing up. I asked my mum once how she coped with it all, and her answer still freaks me out sometimes.

She said she didn't know she was a person who had choices, or could think about the situation she was in. She just did as she was expected to.

She's in her 60s now and is far more in tune with her emotions, thoughts and feelings than I remember her when I was a kid.

Can you just imagine? Being virtually catatonic in autopilot most of your life, because no one encouraged you to live? It chills me.

I watched Westworld recently, and I can definitely draw some parallels behind the theory of a bicameral mind it hints at, where automatons slowly start to awaken and take control of the voice in their head telling them to do things...

 

Any recommendations for low-impact tools I can use to better understand the activity of expired processes?

Ours plays the 1979 hit Music Box Dancer which is weird because it's definitely not public domain.
