Were already at an all-time high of vehicle related deaths. We'd actually probably see a decrease in fatalities if we made cars smaller.

I think they store the data about the files in a database, but the files are in a folder structure.

Doesn't make sense to have data that could be a few gigabytes in a database, or maybe that's just me.

As a kid I didn't understand hermits.

Now that I'm an adult, I'm jealous

I personally don't use Photoshop but was using it as an example. You could fill in the blank with other tools like AutoCAD, MS Office, QuickBooks/Quicken, etc.

I think there are two major hurdles keeping Linux adoption back (besides the obvious installation bit). The first is that our backwards compatibility is terrible. It is easier to get old versions of Windows software to run in Wine than it is to get some old Linux software to run natively.

If something like Photoshop did finally release a Linux version, even if they only did one release to make 2% of people happy, it likely wouldn't be able to run natively after 5 years.

The second is a good graphical toolkit. Yes, GTK and Qt exist, but neither are as simple as WinForms or SwiftUI/Aqua.

I think my favorite comment from that thread was "It's perfect for organizing people's /tmp folder" from outofpaper

This might be controversial, but the new Denis Villeneuve movies are much better than the book. Maybe watch the movies and read the book or trawl the wiki after for more context.

Well, you know the old adage: "Good artists copy, great artists steal"

The only wrong choice is being indecisive, so you start by picking one and watching YouTube tutorials about it.

Eh, I'm gonna buy it the moment it comes out in the US because the movie is fucking fantastic, but you do you.

From the article:

there’s still no easy (or legal) way to watch it with English subtitles, and there’s been no updates on when it’ll come to streaming or physical in the US or elsewhere
