A funny answer. On a more serious note, it is confirmed Boimler dyes his hair purple in LD 3x01 "Grounded".

This feels like the most reasonable answer, honestly. I hadn't considered it because I live in the Southwestern US and often get a lot of sun exposure.

I find that I’ll do the bare minimum in GIMP (like that one healing extension), and then I’ll copy what I have over to Inkscape to do the rest.

The filter preview feature seems really nice!

Honestly, Inkscape is at the very least almost as good as Illustrator - call me deluded but I find more intuitive in many cases.

Now if only GIMP could actually have some money pumped into it and a sane UI… 😒

How are you guys pronouncing this?

Personally, I’ve found it sounds kind of nice when said like “Loon tea”.

That’s why I’m starting to prefer LTSC.

Definitely smiling Bashir just for all the weird voices Data did.

I think distros at least do some stuff beyond repackaging the latest software, namely default configurations (or lack thereof).

For instance, technically Debian has the packages to do SELinux, but it's Fedora (and OpenSUSE, I think?) that actually come out the box with them.

They are also continually improving, if slowly, their package managers to improve the experience of sourcing new software, as seen with work on apt and dnf.

You are right overall that new distro releases have little meaning any more. If anything, I think they are a good method for managing the upgrades to new software; when a release comes out, breakages can be addresses all at once and solved for a couple of years, whereas rolling release requires a person to be vigilant and repair breakages more often. That is not to pan rolling - I use Debian Testing on my desktop. As much as I like newer software, though, I am thinking of staying on Trixie after it becomes stable, as I get tired of applying updates all the time and then something breaking that is incredible difficult to diagnose.

Yeh, something is borked with your network settings. The port that's connected seems to be trying to connect over IPv6, but unless you're doing something weird, it should be IPv4 It should be in your network settings GUI.

I've seen that one before! 😁

That's the one I prefer - the game's public domain and has many variants. It was a fan game originally written in BASIC for the PDP-11, I believe, and has been ported many times.
