  • Well, i got some feedback, most creative people don’t find gimp good, they won’t switch.

    Well dunno if it’s because gimp lacks good tool that ease up their workflow or because we teached them adobe suite.

    During my art course it was : adobe suite and autocad with 3d max.

    But i knew blender, gimp and scribus way before entering art school because i disagree with adobe’s licensing system and found it very expensive.

    Imho, the current best creative software on linux is Blender. There is also Darktable and Rawtepee for light, contrast.

    For inkscape, krita, i can’t compare, i never used adobe illustrator, nor corel drawer.

    Scribus is good, almost perfect but it lacks a very important feature that i can’t replicate. Adobe Indesign is far more easier because of the guideline that tell ya this item is correctly aligned and has the same size.

    Kdenlive, well featured but i find adding video effect easier on adobe premiere pro. And kdenlive had a lot stability issue, i lost my work several time and that’s how i learned to setup automated save.

    Autocad easily outmatched freecad, there were a huge difference in functionnalities. I don’t know if it has changed since 10 years. It probably improved a lot.

    I apologize for my english grammar.




  • Yeah you are right…

    Well i admit, first, i didn’t care about speed. But maybe for high quality, and smooth transfert, i should have chose the hightest.

    Hopefully i didn’t because the fiio device only accept unidirectional usb-c. It don’t accept bidirectionnal cable. There was an arrow. I thought biderectionnal cable should do the job…😅

    Well i didn’t expect ton of features. I just wanted a simple cable to transfer data. According to the cable notice, it should. But fiio sold a device with an proprietary usbc cable that can only transfert data in one direction. And no usbc-usbc can connect to it, i have to buy a fiio’s cable as apple’s lightening.

    Then i dig and discovered this whole usb-c mess. It breaks intoperability. That’s why i was mad. It’s inefficient and wasteful…and no vendors were able to help me when i asked which cable can work with it.

    They don’t know cable as you do, and i guess i have to take lesson on cable myself as i can’t trust manufacturer nor vendors that are as knowledgeable as me. I should have gone to the hacker fab lab first.


  • For me, i manage a minetest server and it was very diffucult, there were polish, turkish…lot players were young and couldn’t speak any english word. And it was crazily difficult because i wanted to help them, then explain why i decided and it was a very difficult experience to maintain a good multilingual community with young people along my server own rule.

    Very hard :( I hope i will succed one day.

    Yeah i discovered that and i was extremely furious. I bought a usbc cable around 10€ and it wasn’t working because the device only supported a certain type of usbc. Apparently, there is some info about information in the eu website.

    But i’m not able to understand any technical part…i just want a color : yellow charger/cable go with yellow port. Etc.

    Dunno, probably a new standard. Or a standarised battery ? I’m mot an expert in this area.

    I think thats a good opportunity to slow technology and focus on our earth ressource management and waste. We can wait 20 years before buying new machine and set up new standard ? Then every producers test and create new prototype in their lab along technological foundation to help with their research ?




  • Snoopy@jlai.lutoLinux@lemmy.mlWhy do you use the terminal?

    Because app manager doesn’t work well. And there are the feedback on terminal that tell you about missing dependencies or broken packages…The fact you get those verbose log help for doing web research and solve lot problems. On GUI installing app isn’t well done : it’s slow, they don’t tell you what they are doing nor why it fail.

    The only limitation of terminal is when you want to work with file system. I need to see the tree and typing ls -a everytime isn’t efficient. Example, i’m doing a git clone on a server throught ssh. But i have no way to know its structure and check if i downloaded it in the correct directory. I need a visual that tell me this folder is here, has those writing permission, is a tar archive… So i use both : filezilla and terminal, gui and cli. In fact, they are both very useful, so there no point comparing gui and cli, they both serve well their purpose.

    I’m using CLI and GUI. For example, if i want to chose the correct keyboard and check its mapping : gui. If i want to add sources and its gpg key : app manager gui. There is no way i would enjoy typing this huge command line with flags from my mind, and i do lot mistype. Or installing the stack lamp ? on windows it was amazing and faster than linux. next, next, done.

    Luckly we can copy-pasta those commands.
