You mean there are no ideas of interesting things to do with GIMP ? I have PLENTY of ideas (but not having time to contribute them I prefer to STFU) :
- merge of scale, rotate and move, even perpective layer tools to on-canvas handles (even non destructive composition) - non-destructive layer effects (GEGL for real) - better font handling UI for text - non destructive cage deformation - better background removal options - palette based dithering - pixel art editing tools (tiling edition : modify all similar grid tiles, tileset edition) - better animation support (by example allow zooming in animation replay for spriting, ghost frames) - better palette sorting - better dithering for non-regular palettes - 16bit color or CYMK ? don't need them, but eh....
yup, here in France unlimited voice calls, unlimited VOIP to many countries incl USA / Europe - in your data plan, unlimited texting to many countries, 3GB data on 4G or 3G - throttled after that - , no minimal contract (you can leave anytime), open wifi where available : 22$/month, I'm stunned by your plan (not) - and this is just a random example on the best cellular network coverage, there are cheaper/larger options (28$ for 5G)
Interesting, do you have a source ? (Aka citation needed). I'm genuinely interested in getting such kind of study result. Of course the real subject is long term exposure effects of radio microwaves. For which I'm not sure many results (scientific ones) exist. And incidentally I'm going to install Ethernet plugs in our sons school next week to avoid this - not for me but by other parents demand (which I think will bring more reliable connectivity - win win )
Well, either you're on a standard platform say a raspi or any other one, and you don't need to recompile the whole operating system / gnu stdlib since there already is one ready and stable (raspian), or you're on a custom platform. In that case it's custom linux BSP (can be a pita) vs not supported, get lost. I'll take the first one.
Wow, pretty shameful. Can you specify where you're working at ? I've only worked at private companies (big & small ones) in France where using linux for office work was, well less than practical but accepted if you can sort it out (and servers on MS needed to be thoroughly defended if you needed to). From the people I knew in public research it was linux except in office works.
Or write one for whichever sse has interesting instructions and a fallback mode in C. For embarrassingly parallel image processing divide your image in nbcores sub image and call your engine with each. No need to provide more. And writing good simd code is still better done by hand. All apple core are ARM, write one with NEON also or better for one core. The cost benefit analysis isn't always go with higher level languages either.
I'm making an open DIY game console which is sold around $50. I solder them myself with 0603, based on custom made PCBs (in Asia unfortunately) for a few $ each. Soldering SMD PCB by hand is definitely doable (there are nice tuts on youtube, by example Dave Jones ones). Of course my "products" need a PCB, but they're far from needing a $50 PCB apiece (with no components).
OK - well I'm not but let's assume - Why not : - single out that this is not normal or moral (even if legal) and shop accordingly - let the bad publicity be asserted again and again until it changes (by example, just tell every time you talk about Amazon about their tax rate) - talk about the sociopaths ruling the place as such and isolate them socially until they change (you know, like in certain societies / countries it is not accepted to do some things but perfectly acceptable to do in others ? it works.)
until they pay like they ought to (even if they're not forced to legally)
and in parallel, talk loudly about changing the rules so that it becomes politically infeasible to not do it (then do it).
Yeah, sure, impossible for German and French to work together. Tell that to Airbus, ESA and its Rosetta and Ariane programs which are co-ruled by those two (and other countries, including UK, which French "hates" too, if you go that way). Besides, Bombardier is not French, Alstom (which is the TGV builder) is.
The Dutch railway company surely prefers to buy from as many different vendors as possible (who doesn't), but I fail to see how they would get a say in a hypothetical Siemens/Alstom merger. Just diversify by buying another vendor maybe (which they already do if I understand you well).
The fact that recently Siemens wanted to buy Alstom (failed bid, taken by GE) doesn't prove your point (maybe not the transportation branch, but well they "hate" all branches equal I guess).
Not necessarily. 8.2 means : ok we heard you, we fixed the mess, here is the correct version. 9.0 means : preceding version was ok, now here is a new one, which will be good trust me.
In cgi, what you spend your time doing is rendering limitations to make it look more "real". Lens flare, dirt, vignette, glare , scratches, de focus, even color grading are artifacts or wear out that make it so more real than clean, 100% sharp plastic images. We're seeing some elements through non neutral media and are accustomed to this filter. Look at how 100fps movies look like cheap video first. It takes time to change your habits. And if reality isn't a concern... Well just use flash games.
Ok it'll be awesome just for the nerd stardom and will raise Linux visibility again. But isn't it basically the Linux user land explained by the kernel lead ? Is kernel that important at this introductory level ?
Yeah sole of them can come by train.. Ah except the railroad network has essentially be killed by big oil. Besides, Try having big oil accept that we just use oil for logistics.
this reminds me of chemists after organic chemistry / atomic physics discoveries saying that basically, science was done.
well, TFA has it...
Before the arrival of quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of relativity, two theories physicists have not yet been able to reconcile, 19th-century scientists predicted that all major discoveries had been made, Sherrilyn Roush, an associate professor of philosophy at the University of California, Berkeley, pointed out.
Well, I think this might have to do with the level of basic science funding (of course I don"t have any figures to back that). Also, this reminds me of chemists after organic chemistry / atomic physics discoveries saying that basically, science was done. Just in time for quantum physics to be discovered...
So, that's great : saying this just means that we're on the verge of a big event in science !
And grr no they're not junk characters, you junk comment filter yourself. Please be damned to your 0xffff generation you filthy random bag of bits. What do you want me to do ? Type random sentences in the comment box ? That's what you want ? yes ? because I can definitely do that. Hey, I said I entered random sentences ! now accept my post!
that's why for many databases I'm an afghan of 13, - or a student of 93 yo if adult is needed -currently retired from aeronautics (or whichever comes first in the drop down list), living at 1, GOTNOADDRESS st IGOTNOTOWN, or whatever. And I give false answers to any obvious commercial data gathering (but I never lie about my keyboard preferences on slash polls - if they still exists)

Well tell that to upper management where they all think they are unique snowflakes.

Of course python does allow block delimiters. Just remember to indent your code right.
The delimiters are #{ and #} (should be put on their own line)

Yes, and if the fuses allow that you could even program the flash with it ( boot loaders are allowed in Harvard arch)
You'd use a Mega for this ? An attiny25 should be enough !

No, the inventor *of* dynamite as a weapon was Alfred Nobel. He had remorse about it and created a peace prize.
