If anyone is up for boosting, Bandcamp is holding a fundraiser for the Trans Continental Pipeline to help trans people escape from Kansas!

Un-Minimize a Canvas wth macOS Finder Keyboard Shortcut
Un-Minimize a Canvas wth macOS Finder Keyboard Shortcut YouTube video by Mark Sweeney

One thing about Clip Studio Paint that annoys me - there's a keyboard shortcut to minimize a canvas... but there's no shortcut to bring it back.

I found a macOS finder keyboard shortcut that works to bring back a minimized canvas in Clip Studio Paint.

The optional built-in noise cancelling works pretty well. I tend to use DaVinci Resolve's Ai Voice Isolation instead.

Lightweight & clips on to clothing nicely.

I will NOT be holding this tiny microphone in my fingers. One, it looks silly, and Two - a mic-drop with these will just be embarrassing.

two men standing next to each other with the words the power of christ compels you on the bottom Alt: Two Catholic priests standing next to each other, both saying the same thing while the older priest sprays holy water with his right hand. At the bottom are the words they're saying, "The power of christ compels you!"

Where's a priest with holy water when you need them...

I hate to be the "wait for trade guy," but the shipping will definitely be worth it at that point.

I'll have to pass on a physical copy unfortunately, - that puts it about $32 CDN. I hope your whole run sells out!

Any idea what shipping to Canada is for the ยฃ10 version?

I used to order a ton of stuff from the US - I'd go across the border to a parcel service to pick them up - $3US per item.

Now... you couldn't pay me to cross the border.

If an artist isn't able to visualise their ideas on paper (or on the screen) without the use of genAI, they are not an artist.

I know some artists who aren't capable of visualising things in their head, yet they can still create stunning art. I know others who brainstorm their ideas and compositions with literal scribbles and stick figures, only to end up with a beautifully rendered piece.

There is absolutely no excuse for a self-respecting artist to use genAI at any point during their process.

Someone over on Instagram saying that genAI is bad for art, but can still be used by artists who have trouble visualising their ideas.

I had to reply.

I bet it's still cheaper to ship to Canada from where you are than it is to ship from the US to Canada.

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countriesโ€”including the United States.

This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

This isnโ€™t just bad design, this is -ADVERSARIAL- design.

Surrey police could make a fortune ticketing all the people using the King George Right Turn Only lane as a passing lane so they can cut ahead of bridge traffic just before the South Fraser Perimeter Road.

Drove over the new Riverview bridge this morning. NDP really fucked up going with just 4 lanes. Sure, the bridge itself is a nice drive, but it does nothing to alleviate the traffic jams leading up to it.

I still remember Galen Weston Jr. whining about how they were scrapping by, barely making any money, and complaining about how they only made $500 million profit the last quarter.

"Only" 1/2 Billion dollars in a mere 3 months.

The sooner every billionaire is shoved into a wood chipper, the better.
