It’s unfortunate how many replys are missing the good part of this and rather respond with criticism and negativity. We can do better than that folks. This is a good thing!
India has too many languages and cannot agree on one in common, which is why English is a “neutral” compromise. I understand that making Hindi the national language is a common Hindu Nationalist point.
The problem is that India has many local languages. So you need one language, equally foreign to everyone (so no one has an unfair advantage) for things like federal laws, national-level competitive exams and inter-state communication (each state is, in theory, composed of the people speaking one language). English conveniently fits that bill.
We almost had civil war in the 1960s over this. The compromise was that (1) India has no national language, (2) all federal documents would be in both English and Hindi (the biggest Indian language) and (3) all schools must teach any three languages, including English.
I like seeing the Krita suggestion, but to just call it “open-source” with no clarification on that means would lead me to believe kids would skip over the hyphenated adjective without realizing it is often the key to finding other good, open-source software (e.g. a “open-source alternative to Reddit” query should lead one to Lemmy). I’m hoping it has a section or callout or even a vocab word on another page but I’m skeptical.
(This is putting aside my quarrels with OSI, FSF, SPDX for the larger picture)
Very strange presentation of Krita, but I’ll take it. The overview of what you’ll be able to do doesn’t actually list anything you can do, and the comic recommends using it to deblur photographs, which is definitely not something I would recommend Krita for.
There’s some surprisingly sci-fi stuff that’s possible with [image deconvolution] (mathworks.com/…/deblurring-images-using-the-blind…). Not exactly practical, but it is possible to recover some information from a blurry photo.
Yeah, I’ll wager computer generated blur is easier to undo than real physics generated blur.
There was that Canadian a few years ago who used a swirly blur on a picture of him raping kids, and the German police reversed it and had him locked up.
Our textbooks (in Ukraine) used to include stuff on both windows and linux (specifically, linux mint with cinnamon), and included a chapter on libreoffice/openoffice
