tbh, I didn’t get that far. It could be legit. It just didn’t sound legit, and I didn’t see a person in the first little bit I watched, so I turned it off before giving it much of a go. When combined with the clickbait headline, I just felt like I wasn’t going to get much out of it

I clicked, it sounded like an AI generated voice. I turned it off

That’s what dual booting is for!

These have been our settings pretty much since we set up pbz

Hi! What’s up?

Nope. Data directories and compose files only.

The only adobe software I used was photo editing, so Lightroom and Photoshop. I have no idea what their other apps do, or how they compare to linux equivalents

Ah, no, I use darktable for all of my editing. But sorting my photos, rating, tagging and flagging them for future editing is all digikam.

Digikam is built from the ground up to be a photo cataloger. Hierarchical tags that you can click on to expand or contract, the ability to jump from a given photo to all photos taken on the same date, or all photos in the same folder, or all photos that share a particular tag. Collapsible folders and tag structures, the ability to toggle child tag/folder recursive view on or off, image grouping (automated by filename/timestamp/burst). They also share metadata perfectly well through EXIF data, so anything I do in one is visible in the other right away.

This is digikam

This is the same folder in darktable

My biggest issue with darktable was the masking. It’s so different in darktable, but once I understood it, all the barriers fell away

I can’t find something that has a decent workflow. I’m not looking for anything fancy

I import, sort and tag my photos with Digikam, and then open them with darktable for editing.

I was one of the former. Photography isn’t my job, but it’s really important to me, and photo editing was a show stopper for me for a long time. Even after I moved to Linux full time, I was using remote desktops, VMs and whatever else I could manage to get Adobe stuff working, without having to switch back to Windows. I endured, because I’d finally hit a threshold where that pain was worth putting up with in preference to Windows and its built in ads and spyware.

But when I finally gave up on getting Lightroom working on linux, I figured I had no choice but to learn a linux compatible workflow… It was either that, or go back to windows, and that wasn’t happening…

In hindsight, I’m so glad I couldn’t get them working on linux, because it forced me to get my head around Darktable. I couldn’t go back to Lightroom now…

I’ve got one already, with pedals. But I don’t have dedicated space to use it, so it never comes out :\

The PS5 lets me play Gran Turismo with VR. and turn by using the gyro function on the controller, effectively mimicking a dedicated steering wheel by turning the controller itself rather than stick steering. I could use a wheel, but without a dedicated space to keep the wheel, setting it up and packing it down is just too much of an issue. Gyro steering gives me much of the same control as a wheel does, but without the hassle.

So gyro steering and VR together was a game changer for me. They were so amazing that I can’t play racing games any other way now…

But VR on the PS5 is basically dead in the water, so hardly any games support it, and gyro steering is basically unheard of in most racing games. So it’s pretty much Gran Turismo…

In theory it’s technically possible to use the PS VR headset on my PC, and configure gyro steering, but so far, the combination of getting them all working and configured correctly AND finding a game that supports it all has defeated me…

It’s also not a fork

I’ve been using CachyOS for a couple of years now, so I suppose that makes it my favourite distro of 2025

I used photoprism for a long time, but when I tried immich, I dropped photoprism in an instant.

I haven’t got this game yet, but if I’d have known it was the same folk that were behind Telltales Walking Dead, I’d have grabbed it weeks ago! That game was one of the most powerful experiences I’ve had in gaming, so I’m looking forward to this one much more now!

Who said it would be entirely men?
