  • From my amateur experience Krita is really nice for drawing, painting and sketching, especially if you have a graphic tablet, as it bundles commonly used features and makes them easily accessible.
    But it is by far not a sophisticated image manipulation program such as GIMP, which comes with a plethora of more features you'll probably not use if you're just doing some "typical Krita stuff".

  • Humans need at least some meat to survive. [...] It causes long-term, serious harm to people who do not supplement their diet with at least some meat. [...] completely cutting out meat is bad for you.

    That is not correct.

    Advocating a vegan (or even vegetarian) diet is ignoring science and how our bodies function. [...] Pure veganism is a cult that ignores science, diet, and common sense.

    To the contrary. It is very much supported by science. Are you interested in the scientific literature? I'll happily share.

  • True, increased demand for meat is one of the driving factors of ecological malpractise as it's found in the meat industry.

    Plant based diets and a lifestyle free of animal products provide a more sustainable and ecologically beneficial alternative. As does reducing the overall world population of course.

  • According to a quick read on Wikipedia, you are right. He was charged, But not sentenced.

    On January 6, 2011, Swartz was arrested by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) police on state breaking-and-entering charges, after connecting a computer to the MIT network in an unmarked and unlocked closet and setting it to download academic journal articles systematically from JSTOR using a guest user account issued to him by MIT.[15][16] Federal prosecutors, led by Carmen Ortiz, later charged him with two counts of wire fraud and eleven violations of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act,[17] carrying a cumulative maximum penalty of $1 million in fines, 35 years in prison, asset forfeiture, restitution, and supervised release.[18] Swartz declined a plea bargain under which he would have served six months in federal prison.[19] Two days after the prosecution rejected a counter-offer by Swartz, he was found dead in his Brooklyn apartment.[20][21]

  • That you deliver reasons for why you claim I'm wrong.

    It's freemium, not free. As I said before, OpenAI limits the number of prompts you can make per hour in case you don't want to pay. Also, using the API or ChatGPT 4 costs money. Users of search engines are usually not asked for money.

  • Well... as I said. OpenAI asks for money, search engines usually don't. Ergo, OpenAI is not free. (But freemium.)

    Despite claiming that's not the case, you lack the necessary proof and don't seem to care about countering my argument with something of substance.

    Such a discussion will not be fruitful if you are unwilling to deliver.

  • The us is in many ways a much worse country than Germany (or almost any EU country). I don't see why we should strive to emulate that model.

    Besides the point. Immigration does not necessarily lead to "bad" legislation.

  • Thank you for the reference! Learnt something new. As far as I've read, the Overton window is not just that, but describes a general window of acceptable ideas or propositions. Of course, influenced by possible (public) majorities.
