actionjbone,

The public will never know for sure.

He was a very broken person, in many ways. That doesn’t prove or disprove that he did anything illegal or immoral.

Some of the ways he acted? They seem questionable to most folks, myself included. But through the lens of his emotional and psychological issues? They could have appeared harmful but actually been harmless.

For example: Is it weird for an adult celebrity to have pajama parties with kids? Yes. Is it harmful if it was, in fact, only a pajama party? Probably not.

Michael Jackson is a complex figure with huge cultural import. That doesn’t change the fact that he may have been a problematic individual.

In some ways, he may have been less harmful than other historic figures. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t question the possible bad things he did.

A utility to map extruded lines/objects/shapes to STL files. For example, say you have an STL of a curved vase. You want to add a spiral to it. So you place the photo of a spiral on the object. The utility lets you decide where on the STL it’ll be placed, then you can decide the extrusion depth (positive or negative).

Possibly including some type of LLM, too. So you can import your STL, then type something like “picture of the Simpsons in the style of ancient Greek amphora vase paintings.” It’ll appear as line art on the 3D object

Note that I don’t need this, myself. You want to work on something interesting, so I thought for a few minutes and came up with this. :)

actionjbone,

It’s not way too early to break out the guillotine for use on the Embracer CEO.

actionjbone,

Grim Dawn is “What if a sequel to Diablo 2, but not Diablo 3?”

actionjbone,

The best distro? One that he’ll be able to use easily. One that will get him to actually LIKE the experience.

You don’t want to teach him a lesson by giving him a miserable experience.

You want to teach him a lesson that will let you say “I told you so” for the rest of his life.

Manjaro is pretty easy to use and seems to have good hardware compatibility. A variety of Ubuntu flavors also can mimic Windows and work really well.

actionjbone,

Every distro sucks to someone.

I tried Mint on one of my laptops, and it broke as soon as I installed any updates. It also didn’t properly support the laptop’s graphics.

Manjaro installed perfectly and runs flawlessly. No issues.

So, as always, different distros for different computers for different folks.

actionjbone,

I don’t like when huge, rich corporations pretend that they are an underdog.

On top of that, I don’t like when a platform bribes developers to limit their game to one platform.

Is Ubuntu deserving the hate? (lemmy.ml)

Long story short, I have a desktop with Fedora, lovely, fast, sleek and surprisingly reliable for a near rolling distro (it failed me only once back around Fedora 34 or something where it nuked Grub). Tried to install on a 2012 i7 MacBook Air… what a slog!!! Surprisingly Ubuntu runs very smooth on it. I have been bothering all...

actionjbone,

You’re not wrong, but there’s also value in exploring different ways to do similar things. That’s what’s great about Linux.

Some of Canonical’s efforts may lead to failure, but that doesn’t mean they are a waste.
