7 days agoNow that single window mode is a thing across all platforms, it’s not as bad anymore.
I still don’t know how to draw a circle, though. I think I may need to turn a selection into a path? I just use Photopea for this stuff these days.

Gimp is what you use for image editing if you’re poor or Stallman-like. It’s good at being scripted for programmers that want to automate their image processing workflow.
Krita is what you use for drawing stuff if you don’t want to spend money on software or are Stallman-like.
Photoshop is what you use if you do photo editing or digital art for a living. Paid, proprietary options exist if you don’t do photo editing.
There’s one tool that comes close to competing with Photoshop and it’s Photopea, a subscription based/ad ridden website clone of Photoshop.
Recommending GIMP as a Photoshop alternative is like recommending LaTeX instead of Word. It’ll work for some people, and it’ll do some things much better even, but it’s ridiculous to assume any normal user of the proprietary product is going to be able to use the open source alternative without weeks or months of training.
13·10 days agoIs there a database of “this IP belongs to this state” these companies use? Or do they just use GeoIP stuff? I don’t want my Lemmy server to accidentally violate American laws and get in trouble/banned, so I may need to start doing some IP filtering myself.

0·17 days agoThe status of this document seems to be highly overstated. This isn’t a 42 step plan, it’s a concise answer to a broad question a working group was asked. The numbers in front of the paragraph aren’t steps, they’re numbered because they’re official documents and these paragraphs may need to be referred to later.
The EU got law enforcement agencies together and asked “what do you think we need to do to modernise law enforcement”. Obviously the police force is going to ask for a carte blanche, they’re not competent enough to catch serious criminals anymore. That doesn’t mean any of this will make it into law. The references to voting are also pretty random considering the European parliament is largely opposed to suggestions like these.
Asking a VPN company whose business runs on privacy scares about potential privacy impact is like asking Google about ad regulations.
An unsettling, but hardly unexpected, result of an inquiry, but this article doesn’t do a good job reporting on it.

Damn, they really overfit their music models. With image generation and text prediction it’s very hard to prove a direct connection, but with four or five of those songs it’s unmistakable that the original songs were used to generate the music output
I wonder what the effect will be of fixing the models’ overfitting. I’m guessing it’ll generate worse music, or they would’ve done so already.
Quite sad that it took the music industry to notice before any lawsuits with a chance of succeeding got off the ground.
