Wasn't death a requirement for us to reach this current stage of human evolution? I don't think it is a good idea to stop it entirely.

It's neural piracy, and I am down for it.

Well, in the case of LightCraft, some basic things like processing raw photos. It seems to be struggling with processing them compared to older software, it's kinda slow and glitchy. But it's in a really early stage, support for the CR3 format (the one I need) was just added like 2 days ago.

I do use it sometimes! But I dislike the UX. RawTherapee feels better, but it still feels weird compared to Lightroom. LightCraft is basically a Lightroom clone, so everything feels familiar and standard. The problem is that a bunch of stuff is still missing and/or buggy.

And they are already really useful, even in an extremely buggy alpha state. LightCraft is already working pretty well for a photography hobbyist like me. Can't wait to see the state of this software suite in 6 months.

But it is real, we have no power. To get power, we must seize it from the people who do. Voting in an electoral system controlled by the people in power is not power.

Our generation? This is a mode of production problem, we have no real power, the perpetrators do.

Bun is joining Anthropic! Deno is joining Cloudflare! Uv is joining OpenAI!

Back to Node, I guess.

What an amazing idea for the next fake sandbox escape to hype up our new release! With the added bonus of providing an open model without becoming an open model company! Thank you!

Yeah, one of the reasons why I chose my current Acer laptop was that it didn't come with Windows pre-installed. That made it cheaper and I didn't have to give money to Microsoft.

They do get paid, they are employees and get a salary. I pay for the premium plan and that funds the company.

Paywalling all content sucks, it just makes me leave the website. I pay for a news website from my country that gives me extra cool stuff like opinion articles and cultural highlights from my city, not because they paywall the basic news.

Would be great to have this, but as a TUI tabular editor.

Did it always have this music? I don't remember it having music.

I don't know how to do that, so I will just get a normal phone and consider it permanently compromised.
