Something like this, I found this on a example business presentation, and for my assignment I would like to create the same effect in gimp, making transparent jagged-edges for likely a image on the right, to look better blended with the slide on the left, how would I do that in gimp? I tried setting a alpha channel, and erasing parts of the image, but it only saved a small portion of the image as a png, and just look severely distorted as a jpeg. (Original image was webp, and I selected the option to fit the canvas over the layers). So if you have a idea on how to approach this (preferably a step-by-step guide), I would like to hear it

Hello, I created gameserver-rs, (https://github.com/SpiderUnderUrBed/gameserver-rs), because pterodactyl does not support Kubernetes (and I doubt they would officially add support), there was a attempt, but it was archived probably due to the effort required to maintain something to the level of pterodactyl, but I want gameserver-rs to be its own thing, with a different way to handle nodes, games, and different UI fundamentally. Kubernetes specific features does not work yet, but with the deployments you can already have a node run your game in a pod, and one for the UI, you dont even have to use Kubernetes, which means that its essentially platform agnostic. Made and rust and using svelte (but vanilla html and css works too), I hope to make this project good enough to use for my own server with friends and to provide a use for other people. This projects in very early development, I do not recommend using it in prod, this post is mainly aimed towards getting more contributers, if your interested in potentially contributing, tell me in the reply

Title, or at least the inverse be encouraged. This has been talked about before, but with how bad things are getting, and how realistic goods ai generated videos are getting, anything feels better than nothing, AI generated watermarks, or metadata can be removed, but thats not the point, the point is deterrence. Immediately all big tech will comply (atleast on the surface for consumer-facing products), and then we will probably see a massive decrease in malicious use of it, people will bypass it, remove watermarks, fix metadata, but the situation should be quite a bit better? I dont see many downsides/

From both a technical perspective and if the maintainers of these anti-cheat will consider porting or re-writing kernel level anti-cheat to work on linux, is it possible? Do you think that the maintainers of kernel level anti-cheat will be adamant in not doing it, or that the kernel even supports it or will support it. I think that if it ever happens, there will be a influx of people moving to linux, or abandoning their duelboots, and that alot of people will hate that such a thing is available on linux.

Hello, I am looking for a alternative to HA Proxy, as the GUI options for it, are both third-party and not very good looking, also I just want to know about the alternatives, what I am looking in a high availability setup is the ability to detect if a server is offline, and route to other servers, as well as other HA goodies.

I don't see any downsides or arbitrariness of this suggestion, I mean, there are some services I will use for one month, and I intend to use it for that month, but it happened before where I would forget to cancel it, and this has happened to other users too, by default, auto-renew should be off, I don't really know any strong arguments that can go against this point, I mean, auto-renew can be useful, but there are many cases where it could be harmful and even though people do forget it, it might be a tiny bit deceptive in some cases.

I accidentally screwed up /boot and /boot/firmware, to the point where I have to reset it, since it will not boot, I will have to do this via mounted microsd card on my laptop, I cant exactly run apt or such on there, atleast I dont think, plus I dont know if I can chroot since my laptop is x86, what is the easiest way to reset both /boot and /boot/firmware?

Hello recently I tried compiling the rpi kernel with a specific config option now the modules are now not matching the installed kernel so now anything that uses the overlay filesystem does not work, or certain networking features which is needed for things like cf tunnels I tried all of this to compile: https://pastebin.com/gmkNu2rL https://pastebin.com/9Ap4J7Yw and:

sudo cp /boot/firmware/$KERNEL.img /boot/firmware/$KERNEL-backup.img
sudo cp arch/arm64/boot/Image.gz /boot/firmware/$KERNEL.img
sudo cp arch/arm64/boot/dts/broadcom/*.dtb /boot/firmware/
sudo cp arch/arm64/boot/dts/overlays/*.dtb* /boot/firmware/overlays/
sudo cp arch/arm64/boot/dts/overlays/README /boot/firmware/overlays/

but I accidentally did it to /boot/* too How do i fix this? Kernel version: 6.12.30-v8+ Example for module:

spiderunderurbed@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo modprobe overlay 
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'overlay': Exec format error
spiderunderurbed@raspberrypi:~ $ 

I tried running make modules_prepare and rebuilding the kernel, did not fix it

Title, I am unsure if games are using my GPU or if using my CPU, or maybe my GPU through my CPU, I do not know, something is using my GPU, but I think its just KDE plasma, and I would like to know definitively how to find out

Hello, I am starting to learn and play around with tokio and multithreaded code. I am now playing around with websockets, I don't quite understand the difference between broadcast and mpsc, and when would you use either, I mean, I am assuming broadcast is intended for multiple clients, but multiple clients were able to connect to my mscp channel, and receive a bit of data (but it was weird and partial). So I don't quite get it.

Does anyone know any courses for web javascript? like youtube courses and for web javascript, i mean writing js in script tags, using document and window, and intergrating backend with frontend no nodejs or stuff like that. Just javascript, being used in a script tag, being used to dynamically manipulate elements, the DOM, and such. Most tutorials I found was just, explaining how js works, i know how it works, I want to know how to do the communication between front-end and back-end.

[EDIT] I found one person, and while I would like it if you could tell me more courses, i will link his videos, Traversy Media did some videos on Javascript DOM, which basically does what I asked for, i made a playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDmZtFPxsV268gyN8XBTgXiVVRXtIRf2o

if for whatever reason the playlist goes down, just search for him. But I would like to hear about alternatives.
