I mean, sure… But a whole lot of people use Photoshop professionally without a license.
Krita is great, though. Their Android version is even fully featured, so you can use a tablet with a digitizer if you don’t have a drawing pad for your desktop.
But then you need to know enough about the topic already to know what is stable and what changes with newer versions.
Like, the “web dev boot camp” course I got from UDemy a few years ago as a guide for building a web dev high school course: I recently went back to to look something up, and the whole thing has been completely redone start to finish. Makes sense, considering that it’s updated to the newest versions of Bootstrap and other libraries (and who knows what else).
I know nothing about Rust, but I would assume there are at least some libraries that have major new versions in the last couple of years which might change best practices somehow? idk. But the harder part is not knowing what you don’t know.
JFC. Stand-up meetings with people dialed in to the speakerphone. Buzz-screech all meeting every meeting.
Not the one. I love it, but it’s not a good first game suggestion, ha ha!
Does NewPipe use the YouTube API, or is it a scraper? Also, how will this fix Vanced, that’s using the actual YouTube app?
There are also browser extensions that just play the ads, muted, at like 100× speed. It might as well just be a tiny buffering hiccup at that speed.
I guess we’ll need to see, but I’m not too worried.
To add to what the other person said, I think it’s a PEBKAC problem. I’ve only used Linux occasionally, but that website was very clear to me.
I’d still depend on someone else telling me if I should use Gnome or KDE, but I wouldn’t expect KDE to compare themselves to another option.
Whoever is the subject of the verb “did”. Whoever did something.
Whomever is an object, so whoever did something to whomever.
In other words, “whoever” does things; “whomever” has things done to them.
My jaw literally dropped reading that.
I think it’s time to go outside.
Grading in red is generally avoided, nowadays. Red is closely associated with failure/danger/bad, and feedback should generally be constructive to help students learn and grow.
I usually like to grade in a bright colour that students are unlikely to pick: purple, green, pink, orange, or maybe light blue (if most students are working in pencil). Brown is poo. Black and dark blue are too common. Yellow is illegible. Red is aggressive.
Anyway, I’m guessing they just graded everything in green. The only time I’ve ever graded in more than one colour was when I needed to subgrade different categories of grades, like thinking/communication/knowledge/application. In that case, choosing a consistent colour for each category makes it easier to score.
That’s because of the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon.
I was looking for someone to mention “opinionated”. I’ve been using computers since the 386 days, mostly on Windows, granted, but with some Linux tinkering here and there, and I have no clue what that means.
Still, maybe I should just jump into Bazzite regardless since gaming performance is a consideration for me.

Changing the names would be easier, but if you’re not comfortable lying, try only making friends with people named Alice, Bob, Carol, etc.
XKCD isn’t complete without the alt text.
I feel attacked.
j/k. I’m happy in the education sector. The code I write won’t be seen by anybody but me.
Yes. I know some of those words.
Seriously, though, I’m not a programmer, but I picked up enough from context cues and background information that I think I got most of the big ideas. It’s fun to read about computer science.
I wonder where my life would have gone if I’d made a different career choice, away from CS.
What a great article. Practical and poetic.
It would have been nice to have a connection made to Flow, since that’s what was being alluded to throughout, but maybe excluding Flow was deliberate in some way I’m missing?
It’s not a flagship, but I’m really liking my Sony Xperia 10V. It’s lightweight, narrow, has amazing battery life (I’m at 80% after a full day of light use, 1h37m SoT), has lots of RAM, microSD, and 3.5mm. Its processor is weak, apparently, but I haven’t noticed; I don’t do heavy gaming on mobile and it’s snappy enough for web browsing and has enough RAM to keep lots of apps running.
So, there are good compact phone options. Hopefully other people keep buying them to keep them profitable for companies to support!
The idea is also that a compromised system will remains compromised after all storage drives are removed.
The Alldocube iPlay 50 Pro is the best tablet I could find for under $250CAD with 8GB ram, 128GB storage, microSD, and a good processor.
Edit: For software updates to the latest Android version, you can install LineageOS or any other GSI ROM.
I need an old Kindle. It’s the only way to strip DRM from books so I can use a good TTS app instead of the Kindle app.
I’d just email the CEO, media relations, and legal (if you can get all their email addresses), inform them of their non-compliance with the GPL and ask them to resolve this swiftly before it needs to be escalated. Then if you don’t hear back in 2 business days, reply all again CCing someone they might care about: local media to their jurisdiction, the FSF, the EFF, etc.
