Yes, because everyone has different needs. Even blender, which has gone far and beyond most graphical software, would be a no-go for someone because of one or two specifics.

Again, I firmly believe in OSS, but I don't see how porting more professional software hurts the community or freedom effort, when our biggest hurdle is adoption. Missing things people need is a barriers of entry. Missing things a workplace needs is an automatic loss.

It's not just about quality, there's a lot missing or honestly plain worse in gimp for example, compared to affinity photo. I'm as big a proponent of OSS as any, it's just that software isn't there yet.

What's more, the target audience for that product are usually people who've had their chance encounter with programming and have decided against doing it. My anecdotal experience obviously. Edit: I mean it's unlikely they will contribute to features

I've found prolonged inactivity to be a bad recuperation from 9-5. By all means, rest and do nothing productive if you want, but don't close yourself at home the whole time

That's not a problem for FOSS to solve, but for the environment which allows it

Funny you had to put a disclaimer for authoritarianism. The world's history and propaganda have made it synonymous with the far left, where that ideology was never about absolute power, but quite the opposite.

As opposed to images on the internet... XD

If anything it would actually take more effort to replicate a physical stamp now that I think about it.

Don't give this any legitimacy, look at what happened with Brexit...

Software engineer here, can confirm I've never received anything by post in my life, it's always couriers. My assumption is that post stamps are boomer NFTs.

An ai probably misunderstood what the "thoughts and prayers"were about this time...

No no, the British are no longer in the union. Surely she will act on her dissatisfaction. Surely...

 

I installed an additional SSD on my pc. Everything works ok, except I need to unlock it with my root password on every session so that it mounts.

I've tried formatting it to change the 'owner', tried adding it to the user group, and I can't find any other solutions. Any ideas?

This happens irrelevant of DE (happens on KDE and hyprland). I'm running tumbleweed, though this looks like a config problem rather than a distro problem.
