Never had issue with this. For my work I’ve always used Blender 3D, Gimp, and Krita. The one thing that used to hold me back from using Linux was my Steam game library, but then Valve introduced Proton and all my reasons to stay on Windows evaporated.
Been a happy Linux user for a few years now.
Scandinavia has always been very left side, so it comes to low surprise to me that the left won the European election in Denmark, despite the right trend in the rest of Europe.
However, I will add that right wing Europe is still pretty left from America. Take Geert Wilders, the new guy from the Netherlands. The policies he wants to enact are stricter laws, more difficulty for immigrants, a stronger police force, street curfews for teenagers (real old man yells at cloud energy), and withdrawal from the climate agreement. All very right wing.
But… He also wants better funding for hospitals and schools, higher wages for nurses and teachers, more robust free healthcare system, hard caps and regulations on the increasing housing prices, more affordable housing, a more efficient and cost effective energy grid. If an American politician starts talking about these things they’ll be called a communist!
Really? Because every time the weather in Finland goes about 10°C I hear my Finnish friends complain like it’s the apocalypse. XD I’m just glad Denmark is having a decent summer this year.
Europe is far from being communist. XD
Unfortunately, when America farts we’re all forced to smell it. America wants Europeans to stay out of American business, buts that’s rather difficult to do when that country demands to be the center of attention.
That’s a really good quote.
The alleged skull of Mary Magdalene.
Took a glance at it, not bad price range. I’ll be looking more into it. Thank you. ^^
Hmm, for drawing when travelling I wouldn’t be streaming or hanging out on discord, so being constantly connected to the Internet would not be a priority, just that it’s good for drawing without a mess of dongles and cables.
Not being able to upload a WIP or a completed commission to a customer might be annoying, though…
Yeah, agreed. XP Pen is great value for money. I had a second hand Wacom before and it wasn’t particularly better in any way.
Yeah, I mean something standalone, not something that needs to be plugged into a computer. I already have an XP Pen Artist 13.
Pretty sure my XP Pen’s refresh rate isn’t 165hz, and I find it perfectly fine to work on, so I don’t need something with such a high refresh rate.
At about 13 inches the resolution of the screen doesn’t need to be more than 1080p either.
Hmmm… The PineTab looks incredibly experimental still. It’s a option, but I’ll wait and see how the development of this one is going.
Huh… Yeah, you know what? I never thought of looking at second hand Surface tablets…
Ooh, that one is quite expensive.
Good list if I were looking for just any tablet, but I’m specifically looking one with artist capabilities, such as a pressure sensitive surface and a battery free pen. This list doesn’t mention much about such capabilities.
Yeah, XP Pen offers native Linux drivers, and the guys from Open Tablet Driver have also made their driver work with older XP Pen models, so it’s a pretty great wired tablet for Linux users.
But… Uh… Yeah… I’m looking for a standalone, because travelling with my XP Pen 13 and needing to play dongle-fu with Steam Deck is very awkward.
Good thing that Lemmy is an open source federation, then. It’s not like Spaz on Reddit, where one dude can ruin the whole damn thing for everyone with a few bad choices.
Gimp has been falling behind more and more. Back when 2.0 came out it wasn’t as bad yet, but it got worse as years went on.
