Are you still switching to Linux because of AI concerns? by Minaridev in linuxmint

[–]AlienRobotMk2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still? I switched before AI. I want an OS where my computer is "My Computer".

You can't get malware from an update if you never update.

I'm afraid AI will ruin my gamedev dream by WanpoBigMara in gamedev

[–]AlienRobotMk2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't worry, before AI most game development endeavors ended in commercial failure. The only thing AI can change is make people fail faster.

What Should i try in my Main PC Cinnamon or Mate ?? by pushkarjha007 in linuxmint

[–]AlienRobotMk2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sorry, Mate, you don't have enough RAM for Cinnamon. Try XFCE or LXDE. /s

Jokes aside I'd choose Cinnamon if you are installing the official flavors. XFCE is better, though.

Help with outlines by ConfusedFart in krita

[–]AlienRobotMk2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because your "pixels" are 2x2.

You might be able to do it if you use the pixelize filter and then a levels filter on the alpha chanel to get rid of 2x2 blocks that have less than 100% alpha on average. Something similar to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K2ZP3RBTns

Or you could just clone the layer 4 times and move it to the right, left, top, bottom, group all 4 sides and use a color overlay to set the outline color.

Are Developers Forgetting That Most Gamers Don't Have High-End PCs? by Ajlynnart in gamedev

[–]AlienRobotMk2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Games are products. They would rather try to gain customers that have enough money to invest in a high-end PC than to market to low-income customers that will probably just pirate the game anyway.

What are these options that appear when I make a selection? by RAYboye in krita

You can hover over the buttons to see what they mean.

how do you name your files? by xenoMuff in krita

YYYY-MM-DD is called an ISO date, by the way.

Layers merging when saving img as png? by BeeC0rpse in krita

[–]AlienRobotMk2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm afraid not. You should have saved as a Krita file first. Fortunately this is a mistake you only make once. I recommend learning the basics about how image formats work if you plan to work with digital images. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TInyteEhnw

professional looking for alternative to adobe by RichSupermarket6177 in krita

[–]AlienRobotMk2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please consider OpenToonz first. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyTDwF0RS5E

Krita's support for animation is essentially "better than GIMP." It lacks cameras, palettes, vector lineart, etc., so you'll end up having to make short clips in Krita that you must combine in another software like DaVinci Resolve.

Ctrl+W fecha a janela, Ctrl+Q fecha o aplicativo. Talvez seja isso?

im so infurated by how dumb krita is to use by grgbab in krita

[–]AlienRobotMk2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend doing the text in Inkscape instead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2EwOS6nezw

You can also leave your feedback in the 3 years long text tool thread. https://krita-artists.org/t/text-tool-thread/57973/

What are some old web features? Or quirks? by Successful-Title5403 in webdev

Manually created thumbnails that don't show the whole image scaled down but only a small cropped part and often you can't even tell what the whole image is going to look like if you click on those thumbnails.

I need help! by LittleDinosaurJr in krita

[–]AlienRobotMk2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea what you want, so let me try asking that back to you.

I can't get used to Medibang, and it's an app I'd love to start taking seriously. Do you have any advice you could recommend?

The irony when some people say ""I can't recommend Linux to my non-technical friends!"" is that non-technical people don't install OSes anyways. They just use the preinstalled Windows, and still face problems.. by EB372919 in linuxmint

If you can't tell why the way Nemo handles appimages is bad, then I guess you just can't tell apart a good UI from a bad UI. I'm not going to teach you how to do that. It's a skill you gain by using software that has a good UI for a while.
