GUYS LET ME PLEASE SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF FREE TAX USA
federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL

I'm fortunate that I don't have any hardware key based tools though, or use plugins that require an agent for activation / entitlement management though. I imagine those are rougher to navigate.
I've had pretty good luck that my DAW (Bitwig) does support Linux well, and that my suite of plugins seems to work well with yabridge + WINE. I don't do realtime tracking, so I can't speak to that, but I've been able to smooth out the bumps of my workflow pretty well.
I'm sorry you're getting a bunch of folks being unhelpful, and I'm sorry that I added to that. Best of luck.
I apologize. I didn't come to antagonize and I'm not trying to minimize your experience (I honestly had no clue that you had already started using it to be honest). I had hoped that my statement would have gave you hope to navigate the switch, but it's clear that's not how it was received.
Sure, 2D art isn't supported well. Music production, video editing, color grading and VFX, 3D modelling all have surprisingly first class support though. I guess I got a little frustrated because I felt your statement was overly broad.
The frustration with having to retrain is valid, but based on what I know, your perspective about Linux not being interested in supporting creative work is a little out of date. That said, the thing you care the most about, 2D graphic work, is the worst supported of the bunch, so I get it.
Tool changes are hard, but I think you'd adapt well in time. I imagine your art tools will be the most challenging to get sorted.
I can always count on you to do something like show a protein doing little steppies, and then teach me not only what I'm looking at, but the history of discoveries that lead to such a neat little animation. ❤️🧪
Oh wow, that's an interesting story about the social media manager. You wouldn't happen to know them would you? ;-)
Can't wait for the inevitable creation of meteorology-focused cerebral giant robot anime Bombogenesis Evangelion.

I also respect the challenge of trying to do this in OpenGL; definitely get why D3D is making this so much more feasible. Still, the achievement already is awesome !
Beans, I was hoping to play with this, but all my production work is on Mac or Linux, and running OBS in WINE seems real goofy. Although it does make me wonder if VKD3D might be something useful for the OBS team to consider.
Off and on for years, I’ve mused on the idea of a “people wash”, a glitzed up fully automated body cleaning experience. It needs to end with an NEC DECTalk voice telling me “your body is now clean and dry” like the jacket Marty wears in BTTF Part 2.
haven't made a step sound yet so i'm using a clip of alucard saying "What?!" from castlevania symphony of the night with randomized pitch as a placeholder.
President Lyndon B. Johnson once said, "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

But sure, the databases they compile information from zounds of sources about us, using a massively deployed camera network to track our movements, all that's totally copacetic.
If compiling databases about the location and identity of humans is bad, then we should all cease to compile them.

It's the first time I am showing "You Are Tomato" in motion.
There's still 1 month to go until #dreamdisc25 's deadline!
Oh yeah, and I've finally switched to sh4zam for a "slight" perf boost on the #dreamcast (thanks! @falcogirgis.bsky.social)

I personally find the scoreboard interesting. I'd also add the context of how long the official translators had to work on the script vs. the duration of the fan projects. It's easy to say "hey, the fan translation is way better" but Woolsy had weeks to months, fans can spend years.
oh lort, is there an issue worth looking at?
A few staffers have joked about "what would it take for us to be able to do a Mario Kart style race in National Harbor", and this is absolutely "McDonalds Circuit 1"
The animation on this looks like a Don Bluth cartoon.
