WHEREZ DO SUBSCRIBE JELLYFLIN?

Jellyfin isn’t great, but it sure doesn’t have this problem.

No. I don’t think the smart patch tool works nondestructively. There are three nondestructive systems in Krita:

1. Alpha Masks. This lets you edit transparency for a given layer. A common use is to remove backgrounds. But you can also paint or use the gradient tool for soft transitions. Gimp has had this too since at least the 2.10 series. Perhaps 2.8.

2. Alpha masking of adjustments. This lets you paint or use the gradient on an adjustment layer, such as Curves or Levels. Again, to allow for soft transitions of adjustments. Note that GIMP 3.2 currently CANNOT do this. It does have adjustments, which are called ‘filters’ in GIMP speak. And like Krita, they can be reordered in an adjustment/filter stack. But unlike Krita (and Ps), an adjustment/filter currently only applies to an entire layer. The adjustment can not be edited within the layer itself on a mask.

3. Layer Styles. This is commonly used for nondestructively adding styles to text, like drop shadow, sparkle, glow, etc. Gimp got this in 3.0.

Gimp has made some real improvements with the 3.x series. But it still lacks basic functionality that Ps has had since 1997 with Photoshop 7.0, and Krita has had for something like fifteen years. But it’s getting there. And it does have better adjustments/filters than Krita. And it has had editing text on the canvas since 2.10 (I think?), whereas that’s being deployed for Krita 6.0 I believe.

I’m not trying to diss GIMP. I’m dissing GIMP.

This point is that Krita is pretty damned good.

Krita has a fully nondestructive workflow, including alpha masks for filters. It’s had it for fifteen years or so. GIMP is still trying to catch up.

Started on 1993 with Yggdrasil Plug and Play Linux. Before kernel 1.0! Before ELF binaries, even.

I’ve been running Ubuntu Studio for almost ten years. Before that it was Redhat variants. Before Linux, a short time with 386/BSD. But for work, SunOS, Irix, HP-UX, and a stint on a team supporting a VAX 8900 running VMS

I’m about to dump Ubuntu Studio. Thinking either Fedora or Debian.

You’re insane. It’s a brilliant film.

There was a competitor of Digg to flee to. Reddit, and the other social media platforms, solved that problem with anticompetitive practices to prevent a migration they previously benefitted from.

I remember when Reddit was run out of spez’s Somerville apartment on a little PC. No subreddits, just one top page. Terrible performance and no users. Everyone was at either Slashdot or Digg. Even Kuro5hin by then was dead. Reddit beat Digg because Digg got stupid and abused their community. Reddit is a million times worse now than Digg ever was.

It took a lot of customer abuse to break Reddit’s stranglehold, but they are perilously close to a Digg like migration off their platform. Spez can take a hike into bankruptcy.

DON’T BRICK THE DEVICE!!!

What’s the issue with the 10a?

Nautilus can move groups of numbered files, which is useful for image frames stored separately. But it has bugs. One of them won’t let you start a sequential move from any number other than 1. Which is idiotic.

Dolphin can’t even do that.

The command line can, easily.

YOU CAN HAVE NONDESTRUCTIVE EDITING OVER MY DEAD WILBUR!

Thanks for linking to an archive of a Reddit post. Fuck Reddit.

Good demonstration project though.

Been running GrapheneOS for almost two years. Ran it before long ago too. It’s a PITA to use, but it does limit tracking. So, pick your poison: ease of use in exchange for your personal data, or additional work in exchange for your privacy. I chose privacy.

Which version of resolve? Wayland? On NVidia? Do you have a link to a discussion at the blackmagic forum for resolve and Linux?

We’ll all be wirewrapping our own computers using discrete TTL logic soon.
