I don’t do photo editing (Gimp) or drawing (Krita) but I have followed many aggregated blogs such as Planet KDE, etc over the years.

I got the feeling that most people have a hard time moving or transiting to Gimp. I have seen some posts from people who love Gimp but they seem to be a miniority. On the other hand, I got the feeling the drawing community love Krita and think it’s worth learning. Krita even shows up in unexpected places such as Godot tutorials on YouTube.

Maybe he loves Hitler so much he’s trying to revenge against Mother Russia?

Here is what I can find about this mysterious fellow. I was wondering why a Russian was helping Ukraine fight Russia and how a Russian became a Neo-Nazi. He is part of a group of Russians that do oppose Putin and part of a group based in Ukraine called “Russian Volunteer Corps.”

In 2001, when he was 17, Kapustin’s family moved to Cologne, Germany.[5] According to Der Spiegel, the Kapustin family received a permanent residence permit as Russian Jews. However, asked about her ethnic background and her alleged Jewish origins by the Spiegel journalists, Kapustin’s mother simply described herself as “a Russian woman”

During his time in Cologne, Kapustin was radicalised and became a well-known far-right figure who was associated with the far-right hooligan

His reach was limited in 2019 when Germany issued him a Schengen ban, or European-wide ban for “efforts against the liberal democratic constitution”.[8] This also applies to Switzerland.

If someone wanted to do an actual Nazi takeover of Ukraine, it would be this guy. Calling this guy a double edged sword is an understatement.

At this point the EU should just set a timer for complaining that Microsoft uses Windows’ large market share to force services on their users. I do like efficient governments.

It actually makes me realize that I should ask for the service fee ahead of time to make sure I can afford to eat at such restaurant.

That’s what a service fee does. Hides the true prices.

Do you live in a place that gets lots of snow? I hear a car is practically immortal in California; unlike Ohio where the salt/brine destroying the car slowly every winter.

It’s kind of like using DRM to combat piracy in regards to multimedia. The Linux kernel is under a certain license and the kernel developers feel NVidia is encroaching on their IP in a way that is against the copyright. They won’t give NVidia an exemption despite their obvious importance in the hardware industry.

It may seem aggressive but look at how Nintendo, Disney, etc. regard those who break their own plans/trademarks. If you don’t take your own IP seriously, the law won’t either.

I would have never gotten that, when did the racists get so meta?

Paying an optional subscription fee is a great idea. It helps pay for servers and personal.

Paying to give special rewards is a horrible idea. The wealthiest can now decide which opinion is best. Everyone wants to reply to the rewarded comments to be more visible for upvotes. It’s terrible.
