I kept seeing recommendations of gimp as a photoshop alternative, so I installed it and… I was convinced that I must’ve downloaded the wrong thing. It didn’t even look like an image editor to me.

There’s a few things I hate people for regardless of context and one of those is lmgtfy links

Sometimes I feel like tech bros have read/watched too much scifi, over actual research

I have no horse in this race, but I can see the transmedicalism claim

200 instances and nothing but cats
