And there’s a huge difference between fifty degrees below zero and absolute zero. But both are lethal to humans if exposed to it for a night.

The UI was overhauled in the 3.0 update on March. The new documentation says changing brush size is fairly easy: https://testing.docs.gimp.org/3.0/tr/gimp-using-variable-size-brush.html

All brushes have a variable size that can be changed.

You can change the brush size in several ways:

• By using the default shortcut keys for changing a tool’s size:

  • Decrease size by 1: [

  • Increase size by 1: ]

  • Decrease size by 10: {

  • Increase size by 10: }

• By using the default mouse scrollwheel actions for changing a tool’s size:

  • Decrease size by 1: Ctrl+Alt+Scrollwheel Down

  • Increase size by 1: Ctrl+Alt+Scrollwheel Up

I get where you’re coming from, but maybe you haven’t heard the news! GIMP 3.0 just got released in March including an overhaul of the UI. While I haven’t checked it out myself, reviewers are saying it’s now really good.

A demon core was part of early nuclear bomb research. The type of reaction they were studying would emit blue light and a ton of radiation.

It’s been a meme to imagine the demon core as an available weapon in medieval fantasy, since it looks somewhat like a mace.

This one features the number 19.

Lastest.

As a rule of thumb, I expect that Asus as a business only cares about adbock from two angles:

1. A feature to slap on the box for advertising.
2. A B2B feature for helping business management make workers more productive.

To the first, there’s little incentive to ever update the lists after you’ve bought the device, so it’s quickly outdated. To the second, it’s like to be far more optimized for Amazon or Newegg, then for Reddit. Between the two, I don’t generally expect them to hold a candle to pi-hole and similar software.

Would you prefer new terminology? Like platform-neutral UI? The way I see it there’s CLI, GUI, and WebUI. When discussing platforms for the first two, were discussing the OS, but for the last the platform is the browser.

I honestly don’t care what the user interface is as long it’s efficient at getting done what I need it to do.

For a fraction of a second, my poor heart skipped a beat, hoping Pushing Daisies had some new news. 😅

I’m trying out Purely Mail. Unlimited email addresses across unlimited custom domains.

I have a cool setup where I have setup an email account at service@service.mydomain.tld, but it’s setup as a catchall for *@service.mydomain.tld (and allows gmail-style tagging). This means I can fill out service forms by inventing addresses on the fly like LemonadeStand+Signup@service.mydomain.tld and the email shows up in one unified inbox, the subject line will include [LemonadeStand], and the message will have the flag ‘Signup’.
