Auntie far. HTH.

❤️

Gwan.

Absolutely. Put the gun away. You got me at nerdy.

My wife is still on Mac OSX, but my son has embraced Mint. I’m a bit cheesed off that there aren’t (obviously) many kid friendly programming tutorial resources, other than maybe getting a sub to codeacademy. Other than that, all good.

Brown… that may explain it?

My wife has brown hair, brown eyes and an olive skin complexion. I’m your typical scandi with reddish-blonde hair, blue eyes, skin that burns like paper. Our child has brown eyes, red hair and olive skin that actually tans. It’s bizarre.

This is an exceptional write up, thanks!

I started with Mint and it was very simple to set up. I don’t really like the DE though (personal preference, I’ve used OSX for over 10 years). From your description it sounds like I can change Cinnamon to something else - is this fairly straightforward to do?

I’m looking to use the machine as a photo processing platform (from film and digital) and finding alternatives to Adobe products like Lightroom and Photoshop… with a view to ultimately having a NAS and cloud backup once I get to it.

Linux Musk Cinnamon. Yours for a modest subscription.

Possibly yes. Perhaps we can wait here until an actual artist comes along and sheds (hah) light on the matter.

I have seen this sort of minimal treatment work well for (human) portraits too.

Don’t know what this technique/style is but I love the bold, impressionistic (?) brushwork. There’s something about making as few, but confidently well placed marks as possible - while still capturing the essence of the subject and it feeling dynamic - that pleases me.

This stinks of panic MVP.

Thanks, it’s less about one case, more that, if I see something interesting and printable, is there a service where I can order it, or places to go to print it?

UK/London person here. Without buying a 3D printer, is there anywhere I can go to get something like this made? Other than finding a friend with such a printer, that is.

Mint Cinnamon was very straightforward for (a not very technical) me on a 2016 MacBook Air v7! Dual boot was a tiny bit trickier, but it’s given an old machine a new lease of life. Highly recommend.
