Purely from the point of view of a museum visitor it's a unique and exceptional experience being able to see so much of the worlds history and culture in one place. But at the same time it takes away something that could be really special about travelling to another country because that's the only place where these things are on display.

Any company that tells you to 'get used' to something has massively overstepped the mark.

People you buy things from are not your boss.

Unless you are addicted to them, in which case they are.

Churbleyimyam ,

This is basically why I don't buy anything that I don't think I can protect from being fucked with.

That's all ownership is really.

I agree that they are effective programs for getting work done. There are some drawbacks in a professional setting though, the biggest being the data scraping that has been introduced. It's hard to explain to clients that any licensing of their images has been violated before it has even been applied. Either Adobe are going to get away with exactly the kind of IP infringements that they are so against when it comes to their own work, or they're lining up a buggerload of legal problems for themselves further down the line.

Then there's the price-gouging that they've gotten into with their online subscription model and instability on some hardware.

How to trust them?

For people starting a new business in a creative industry I don't think Adobe is the obvious choice that it once was.

Sounds like that Austrian guy who was caught having taken the covid vaccine hundreds of times.

Churbleyimyam ,

almost anything else

You mean photoshop right?

  1. File > overwrite yourimage.jpeg

  2. Ctrl+Q

That's 2 mouse clicks and one keyboard shortcut.

You can even make number 1 keyboard shortcut if you want. How is that any more laborious than photoshop?

Churbleyimyam ,

File > overwrite
Bind it to Ctrl+s if you want.

It only saves as an xcf project if you choose save instead of overwrite.

Churbleyimyam ,

Tux Paint is feckin awesome. Not even photoshop has sound effects when you use a tool.

People don't mention it much but I think it's actually the most powerful thing about Linux (and open source more broadly) that it's free to use. It doesn't matter if you're down on your luck, were born in a poor nation through no fault of your own, or are working class and getting crushed by the capitalist economy. It's a leveller and, in my view, represents power, resilience and dignity in solidarity. It's literally one of the few important things left in the world that we have like that.

Churbleyimyam ,

I totally agree! I wish I could contribute more to these things that I use, but it also (and maybe more importantly) makes me want to be more free and generous with all the things I can do. Looking at how most things are today, superficially it seems far-fetched to imagine economies of generosity but actually I think it's got a lot of power to perpetuate itself.

Churbleyimyam ,

Wait until you see how people talk about closed source projects they have paid for.

Same thing, except you will owe them something.

Churbleyimyam ,

I'm actually thinking of pranking my girlfriend some time by editing her bash aliases so that:

alias update='sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && hollywood'

Churbleyimyam ,

Why? Looks basically the same as photoshop, which everybody seems to love.
