  • So it's only browser-based? No download, no installation to local machine? Or did I miss something?

  • Sorry, but NO. Scribus is a page layout app. It is not intended for image creation/manipulation. That is truly using a shoe for hammer, or a hammer for a screwdriver or a screwdriver for a butter knife.

    You can use Word for page layout or image manipulation too. Again, screwdriver for a butter knife. Right tool for the job and all.

  • Yes, Munich, thank you! 👍

  • Permanently Deleted

  • Again? Isn't this the third time or something? Then Microsoft comes along with a briefcase of Euros and the "problem" goes away. Sombody please correct me if I'm mis-remembering.

  • System Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Windows

    Although I just skimmed the Rectangle front page, I think this about covers everything you're asking for in Cinnamon...? The default shortcut is Super/Win-arrow.

  • The Snap Store is run and controlled by Canonical and is not open source. The rest of Snap is open source, meaning the daemon and core software. [emphasis mine] How threatening this is depends on you POV and has been the subject of much discussion.

  • Thats a lemmy problem

    Hmmm...my link in the previous post works. More proof of why Linux has never really taken off with the non-spectrum general public. I guess just following format ([words](https://your.lousy.link)) or -- god forbid -- you select a word, click the link button and paste just isn't esoteric enough...?

    In any case, I see that you edited your post to cover your tracks fix Lemmy's error.

  • And speaking of completely flawed, your link doesn't work.

    Anyway, thanks for berating informing me about AppImage but it's the closest thing on Linux to app bundles which IM<HO is the sanest way to package applications.

  • Speaking of which, didja hear that for the upcoming Easter holiday, Amazon is offering a special gift basket of northern Israeli cheeses.

    They're calling it Cheeses of Nazareth.

  • Easy, tiger. I think you misinterpreted my original reply.

    I meant the whining about the two (systemd and flatpak) isn't strictly OR but may be AND. Have a nice day.

  • My totally unscientific opinion (with a double-your-money-back guarantee!):

    I'm not crazy about either Flatpak or Snap for that matter as there's so much backend baggage for both as well as certain hurdles regarding privileges and access to the file system (somebody please correct me if I'm wrong or working with dated information.)

    My other completely prejudiced, unfounded bias against Flatpak is that it appears to have been adopted by RedHat as "the one true way," and what with IBM's/RedHat's behaviour anti-FOSS behaviour lately, plus I've almost always have been an apt user, I find it a pill hard to swallow.

    Me, say what you will about the security issues and its other flaws, but I like AppImage.

  • The two whines are not mutually exclusive. ¯(ツ)¯

  • SE (scritto con i caratteri 2m alti dipinti arancione) gli instance del fediverso POTREBBERO opporsi, finora non vedo nessuna mossa in quella direzione, neanche un robots.txt. Reddit, monetizzando i dati contenuti, ha messo un cartello alla porta, "Il negozio è aperto!" Il Fediverso semplicemente lascia la porta spalancata, non c'è nessuno a casa e il cane di guardia dorme è morto. Effettivamente non c'è differenza di "quei dati che ospita" Reddit o Lemmy. Correzioni sono sempre gradite.

  • Thanks for this! Quoting from the first comment on the linked article's page&hellip;

    Wonderful story I can't believe I didn't know.

  • Ho visto questo articolo su un'altro sito, che mi ha fatto riflettere&hellip;

    Né Lemmy né il fediverso né Activity Pub fa qualsiasi garanzia contro il raccogliere dati dai terzi, AI o no. Qualcuno mi correga se erro, grazie.

  • Thank you for that.

    Blender 4.0 Problems pls help ;-;

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/10222248

    I recently switched from Windows to Manjaro because i tied it for some time on my laptop and really liked it.

    But now I have major problems with blender 4.0 Cycles HIP rendering on my PC. I tried amdgpu-pro-oglp, hip-runtime-amd and hip-runtime-amd-blender but i get strange shading with progl blender and hip-runtime-amd-blender, with hip-runtime-amd blender crashes when selecting gpu rendering. I use a "radeon 5600 xt" GPU and everything worked fine on Windows, but i really don't want to go back to Windows

    Everything works fine in blender 3.6 LTS I created a simple scene to show the problems on the left is simple principled bsdf, middle left is principled bsdf with full SSS the sphere is metallic and the cube on the right is glas:

    1. Blender 3.6 (GPU HIP, works fine thats how it should look)

    1. Blender 4.0 CPU rendering

    Lazy Police Work + Faulty Software = Eight-Month-Pregnant Detroit Woman Sues City For False Arrest

    From the linked article...

    A Detroit woman is suing the city and a police detective after she was falsely arrested because of facial recognition technology while she was eight months pregnant, according to court documents.

    Porcha Woodruff, 32, was getting her two children ready for school on the morning of Feb. 16 when six police officers showed up at her doorstep and presented her with an arrest warrant alleging robbery and carjacking.

    Piscolabis - A new OFL-licensed Sans-serif Display font!

    From the website...

    Piscolabis is a bold and condensed display typeface based on various hand-painted signs found across Europe. The project started as a sans-serif spin-off of the Picaflor typeface (with which it shares the same x-height) but it soon developed its own personality.
