If you use the GNU Image Manipulation Program, there is something wrong with you mentally.It is the only thing preventing me from using a Linux-based OS on a permanent basis. I need Photoshop to work and WINE is buggy as shit. The GIMP is a shit alternative.Prove me wrong. Why would anyone deliberately use this garbage?

This filter I made ships with GIMP 3. When recoloring text use solid color. Multiply only works on recoloring white text. Solid color works on any color text
even the background stars are made of GEGL nodes chained in very complex ways. Download that plugin here. In default it draws a normal sky, because It has 3 modes, select nighttime modehttps://github.com/LinuxBeaver/GEGL-GIMP-PLUGIN_Clouds/releases/
If your device could use eye tracking without camera video or identifying you, how would you feel? I'd be fine with it. Seems like a cool new way to interact with users
>>107709311fuck retards who use this for UI designthey always test on people who have never used an application/computer and optimize for the first time experiencefor people who have spent a few minute using the application they dont give a fuck if usability is bad as long as the drooling retard eye tracking test disagreesgnome and mozilla devs are some of the worst offenders here
>>107716557>I always switched channels whenever there were commercials.Damn this guy's good
>>107709311>eye trackingLead by example, shill. Make sure to wear an eye tracker 24/7 so that your employer can monitor your productivity at all times.What possible reason would you have against this? It's "pretty cool" and encourages employee interaction.
>>107717218This, faggot fuck tech shit will always be used against you in the end. Everything is for the purpose of making you better goyim.

do you people really wear like a medium in one tip a small in another and a large in a even more other set of tips?
>>107717113no I don't, it fucks up the L/R balance as different tip sizes typically have different bore diameters which encourage treble to varying degrees - hence offsetting the balance.

>>107716832Well, this is still a new pool and I still have the original copies of its data, so I suppose I could destroy it and see if btrfs raid 1 does any better.

Welcome to the Daily Programming Thread. What are you working on, /g/?Previous: >>107690624
>>107717260for what purpose?
>>107717283extremely high>>107717290that's what I am wondering. I want a to learn a low level language that enables me to create whatever software project I want without being limited by the language
>>107717065Sorry but white man is individualistic, supporting your fellow man is inherently Jewish.
Playing with auto-vectorization. Changing a boolean/u8 to u16 doubles the speed according to llvm-mca. Okay then.
>>107717307>to create whatever software project I wantRequires less a mixture of assembly + high-level language and more knowledge about the kernel/user split and driver format/architecture. As long as you can output a proper module with the language it doesn't matter what it's called (for that purpose).Assembly in userspace exists is mostly there to change the behavior of existing code (general assembly), or to *really* optimize algorithms (specifically SIMD instructions).

Microsoft should just hand windows over to a non-profit, goverment or some different non-commercial entity. They aren't making any money from it, they don't care about copyright infringement either like here lithuanian feds went after some skiddies for being skiddies not for 'illegal activation of windows'.It's not even an open secret at this point, it's just a common fact everyone is aware of.https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/hacker-arrested-for-kmsauto-malware-campaign-with-28-million-downloads/

Only reason i stick with obsidian.>ctrl f joplin>>107707598>>107714292>in comparison to Obsidian from the perspective of sheer plugin/being able to do various things.ah ok, yeah last time i tested joplin was years ago and was lacking, think it has excalidraw but its the barebones one.>ctrl f logseq>>107708652this one has whiteboard, think they're still migrating to new database thing
>>107715932>this one has whiteboard,It didn't, last I tried it. But I just checked the site and it apparently was just added.The thing with Logseq is: Why use it when you can just use Obsidian? The only claim it has is that it's open-source and not proprietary (IIRC) but it's so much slower in getting features and competing with Obsidian that you're better off just using Obsidian unless you're a Stallman-type.
>>107715959Obsidian having files be the basic unit sucks, I would much rather have paragraphs be the basic unit which I think both logseq and notion do
Logseq just ditched MD files to go full database.
>>107706860Cons: can't drag notes into each other to link them together; instead you have to select each note and type some shit to create a link. Extremely cumbersome and defeats the point of the app in the first place.
/g/ thought on tech nigga?
He's just part of the hype machine for cyclical phone and tech releases his videos provide very little insight and are very surface level almost sounds like he's reading a brochure provided by the manufacturer plus he's a nigger doing 120 miles on a school zone.

>>107716759once a channel makes it over 100,000 subs (sometimes even less) they sell out and become corporate shills, bought and paid for. They all start out making content on something they really enjoy either as a hobby or whatever, then start getting popular and monetize. Then the money starts coming on and their greed takes over to the point they sell out and become untrustworthy.The psychology of the average viewer is that - the more subs they have the more "right" they are. This is why I watch smaller channels who have nothing to lose and tell you straight up what they think, found, or experienced.
GREAT DUDE

Why are these things still made and used? Most phones don't include a slot for them, and they're the only device small (if modern phones can even be called that) enough to justify using them over a full size card. I know the Switch and Steam Deck use them, but those are also big enough that they surely could've made them with full-size cards in mind
>>107715504Touch controls blow for playing games that are meant for buttons and sticks, and I've yet to find a phone controller that doesn't suck and isn't awkward to hold. Most of them feel like playing on a Mad Catz controller, and either clip awkwardly on the sides of your phone or hold it up so it's topheavy in your hands.
>>107709349TFW I use a 1tb card to hold all of my roms for my steamdeck.
i have like 10x 512 GB sd cards from my work was tossing. I took them all and bought picrel and use them as extra stroage on my phone for movies and shit.
>>107709425>hurr let me share my private stuff with the government and its corporate dogs in the cloud oops some jew irl got mad at a meme and just deleted my files with a similar name after docking my credit scorezoomers love their chains. they brag about them.
>>107709349I got a 256GB Sandisk for Christmas and I filled it up with anime to watch on my phone in bed. They're stupid cheap nowadays, mine was $25. My phone's a $150 Motorola though.I like it because it reminds me of the Sony Watchman in concept.
Thinking of buying a used HDD off ebayIf I do a hard wipe with DiskGenius will that 100% ensure there's no malware slipped in there? What do I do to make sure there's no hidden malware?
>>107716862buy used cable boxes from the salvation army and grab the SSD from that. they are usually 1tb and only used by retarded boomers if you are that paranoid
>>107716996Actual good advice? I think I'll try that.
There is zero filling software out there that can do a whole whack load of passes but most of that is a waste of time. Macrorit data wiper free and pro will do the trick. There is something called killdisk too that you can search for online. It does the same thing. Zero fill the entire drive is usually good enough. You can then do a random pass the next time. There is 35 passes but it takes forever... Blah blah blah. Usually just wiping the entire drive including all partitions will do the trick. Then reformat the drive accordingly. Doing a full check disk to see if any sections of the drive are failing is a good idea to do on used drives also. You may have bought a dud. Better find out now rather than when it fails with all your data on it.
>>107716862No such malware

>>107716703It is a isolated circle, that asks for one more trilli bro, but still haven't created any potentially profitable product yet.
>>107716703The circular part is in reference to the GDP circlejerk that has been taking place for decades now. The llm bubble is just making it more widely discussed since it's about as transparent as a window.
