I've talked to probably hundreds of lefties online. None. I mean none. Can seem to give an adequate roadmap of what ought to be done. Where do you see the ideal US in 15 years and how do we get there? I see lots of grandstanding and pontificating, but nothing that resembles a roadmap. But, boy, you guys sure have lots of opinions about everything it seems. At least you proferred "vegetable gardens", so I'll give you that. It's a lot more than others have shared. And that really says something, doesn't it?

What does Gimp do that Krita (or other FOSS projects) can't?

I mean... DHS isn't going away and neither are borders. And don't tell me that once the left is in power they'll just open the border. So, your inability to distinguish between the value of thirty million earmarked funds vs FIFTY BILLION either shows your lack of understanding of math or bad faith

Same old same old... More self aggrandizing lecturing. Lefties are only good for one thing: fellating each other 24/7. Get back to me when the revolution starts.

[-] TheFonz@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

No, I just get tired of sanctimonious lefties telling us to "grow vegetable gardens" because "power is built from the ground up" or whatever other empty vacuous platitudes they fellate each other with day in and out. It's so fake

The only joke here is you comparing a measly 30mil to 50 BILLION ( With a "B")

Hi,

I'm considering transitioning completely to Linux for my main workstation. However, due to the nature of my work I rely extensively on a few Autodesk products (namely AutoCAD, Revit) as well as Ms OneDrive to coordinate with clients. I did some research and these applications are not available natively and can't run through Wine. So I was thinking setting up a virtual machine with a windows image in order to run these two programs. They don't need extensive GPU. I was wondering if there are any obstacles / issues I should be aware if I chose to go this route? Thanks!

I'm considering getting into it with some add-ons, even though Blender will be adding in the upcoming release potentially. What are your thoughts? Have you played around with it yet? Seems very interesting for concepting

Where the fuck was all this rage in November, my fellow Americans? We already had four years of Trump, January 6 insurrection, a disastrous reduction in foreign relations. But I guess that wasn't enough???

These monkeys went bananas: 40 monkeys escaped from a research facility in South Carolina, and local authorities on Wednesday warned residents to stay away.

“Residents are strongly advised to keep doors and windows secured to prevent these animals from entering homes,” the Yemassee police department said on Facebook this week. “If you spot any of the escaped animals, please contact 911 immediately and refrain from approaching them.”

The monkeys that absconded were from the Alpha Genesis research center, which bills itself as “primate research specialists”. Police said that they have set up traps around the area and are “utilizing thermal imaging cameras in an attempt to locate the animals”.

I don't know how people got that take from Tropic Thunder when they explicitly make reference inside the movie to how messed up and wrong it was. Like, that was the joke. RDJ was playing a character so full of himself that took method acting to it's extreme. Am I missing something? Id love to be educated

My experience on this platform has been mixed so far but one thing I've noticed the most is a significant contingent of the user base is really reactionary in their discourse.

This is a very typical exchange I have here :

User: I don't like this color because it's red.

Me: I don't know, looks more like purple to me. What about red is bad?

User: Why don't you fuck yourself in the face you fucking cuntfuck!

Me: OK...

Like, what gives? I don't have this experience on other platforms. I have arguments but never this shutdown meccanism.

I don't know if others are experiencing a similar situation. My all feed is very sparse with engagement. If I sort top six hours or by top 12 most posts have between 5-10 comments. I feel like there was more in the past? Is engagement dropping off? I'm on lemmy.world as my instance.

What exactly is a bookwyrm instance and how does it differ from a Lemmy instance?

Remember guys, both sides are the same. We should probably vote third party or something. /S

Honestly, I'm shocked how low the pay was for the lead artist behind the Zelda landscape. Or is that normal pay for this category?

You mean she's learning how to build coalitions to get real policy enacted? Or is she not enough purist leftie for you?

At least on Reddit there was some leveling of downvotes built into the algorithm. This site is making it seem like any slight disagreement leads to downvotes thus encouraging more echo chambers. Maybe it's the communities I'm commenting on?
