  • Is that the same as sudo? That's what I've been using.

  • Krita looks impressive. I might give it a try. Thanks!

  • Thanks, man. Well it's on its own hd and I don't have anything important on it, so why not mess around. I've been wanting a Linux box since 2000 haha finally got my dream.

    Do you reckon it's worth trying to install any of these? XD

    I got notepad++ to install via play on Linux, so I think it's just this particular program that's not cooperating.

    This is the exact same issue I'm having. In the end I just installed all my art stuff on Windows :(

  • The text editor I'll try just to see if I'm doing the installation properly, nothing else.

    I paid for SAI and I've used it for about 15 years. I really love it. My artwork is all saved in SAI format. Worst case, I'll have to install it on the windows hard drive.

  • I don't really get health advice from YouTube, but yeah, it would be useful for those who do. It just won't be any help for those who actually want to be misinformed, sadly.

  • Sounds good on paper, but with half my family believing that covid is caused by 5G, I can tell you, all this will do is make them see anyone verified as "brainwashed sheep" and they'll continue to get their advice from charlatans.

  • I'm too noob to know what either of those things are. I looked them up and I'm still scratching my head lol

    Yesterday was only my second time logging onto the Linux box, so I have a lot to learn.

    I tried on both wine and playonlinux, but had the same issue both times. So I'll try a simple text editor or something and see if that works.

    I really don't wanna have to go back to Windows.

  • Paint Tool SAI. After messing up a few times (I thought the C drive was my actual windows HD not wine's virtual one), I got it installed on wine, but it won't launch. Other people have got it to work, so maybe it's just me being a dumb noob.

    I should probably try again with a program that's less easy to mess up.

  • This may well be the right answer!

  • Marcus Chown's book is a good primer on quantum theory, but it will make your head spin.

    (you'll understand the dad joke after you've read the book)

  • cries in my programs won't launch in wine

  • I'm in two minds about school uniform. I don't like the concept in general, but in my own personal experience, I was glad we did have it. We didn't have much money, and my mum was really strict about western clothes. I would have been picked on for not having any designer clothes/branded trainers (good old 90s) and wearing Indian clothes.

    We didn't have those stupid logo rules though. As long as it was the right colour and we had a school badge attached to the jumper, it was fine.

  • Sex work? Any work at all. That a story where someone raises enough money to pay for life saving treatment is seen as a feel-good story is really sad.

    Meanwhile, even in our crumbling NHS, I don't have to worry about going into debt to pay for cancer treatment.

  • I've blocked lemmygrad on connect, but their posts still show up on this community.

  • This is hilarious! The mods are being compensated for their time with shiny gold stars!

    This would be fine for small independent forums that don't really make a profit, but for spezzit? More fool them.

  • Wow. Some people are just entitled little douches.

  • On the flipside, I once had a customer bang on the door one minute before closing, hold up his phone and say, "Your website says you're still open."

  • I tried sending on a fake virus I coded myself in pascal to a teacher I hated in 2000. I don't know if she opened it, but she did get demoted from head of science.
