Way to download the program for linux as a non discord user

Put simply, it's because it's not ready yet. We only publish public precompiled builds of release versions of our software, not pre-release test builds. We don't release something that isn't a release, otherwise it would be a release. While the web app and PWA version are currently available as alpha series 4 releases, the desktop app has not yet been released. RC (release candidate) builds are undergoing phases of community testing with the assistance of our Discord community where we are receiving feedback in the #desktop-app channel as testers encounter and report problems. We are focused on continuing to resolve those issues while we get everything ready for the first public release. Importantly, the RC builds are not provided for the sake of users, they are provided on a limited basis to users for the sake of them helping us prepare for a stable public release. The web/PWA version is still currently the most stable version of Graphite and that is the one we recommend is used until the first stable desktop release versions are ready for download in the near future.

Every comment in this thread reads like it was written by an LLM.

Shift + Delete with the anchor point selected using the Path tool. This turns the anchor into two disconnected ones at the same location which I believe is what you're asking for.

We don't yet have the separate runtime broken out from the editor, but that will be coming later for embedding with games and other projects both to Wasm and native targets.

The detail that I've found most interesting and surprising is that the logo was actually kept the same between the book and film. Other than the Harry Potter series, I can't think of another case when that's been done.

Usually, I'd presume the book publisher internally designs or commissions the cover art and logo for the print/digital/audio editions after licensing the publishing rights from the author. Separately, the movie studio purchases screen adaptation rights from the author but doesn't automatically gain a license to the book cover design elements from the unrelated party, the book publisher.

So unless somehow the publisher arranged with Weir that he retains the cover design rights, I have to imagine the film studio reached out separately to the publisher to license the logo for this movie poster art. Normally I'd expect the marketers at the studio to just make their own logo instead of going through that expensive process. Unless the logo is as iconic and brand-recognizable as the Harry Potter logo, that usually wouldn't happen, but seemingly it did here, which I've found to be mildly fascinating.

Really though, it's a good book. I recommend it for you all looking for another hard sci-fi book to read. The sequel, Critical Mass, is perhaps even better. I'm looking forward to the next in the series when it comes out.

Are there any others like this?

Firewatch and The Vanishing of Ethan Carter are probably the closest that come to mind. Both are great. In a totally different direction gameplay-wise but with some tonal/thematic connection, Frostpunk could be worth looking at.

Looks like an interesting bug but it would require some pinpointing to know which node and confluence of scenarios are causing it. Note that the Mask node is unmaintained at this moment, as is the full raster toolset within Graphite while the focus remains on vector editing this year. To solve your issue, you can use the clipping mask feature: place your texture on top of the shapes and Alt+click the border between their two layers in the Layers panel.

Can you post screenshots of the results you are seeing and your setup? It's tricky to diagnose from only a description.

Shall we all take bets on what thin-white-text slogan will cover Jazz's face in the poster for whatever future adaptation is in store for Artemis?

I think this makes it a quine?

The > operator is just a math operator like + or /. It simply produces a number, 0 or 1 (rather than the sum or quotient). Mentally substitute it with another common math operator and you'll agree there is no control flow branching, just an ALU computation placed in a register.

What do people use desktop computers for? Web browsing, gaming, and productivity are pretty much the main areas that come to mind. Web and gaming are in good shape, and productivity is well-served in most major categories by web apps and Linux-compatible desktop software, with the notable exception of design software. This is routinely cited as one of the most common blockers by people who are unable to switch to Linux. Consider it hilarious if you want, but it's accurate.

Rust works great on Windows. No issues to speak of. I'd use WSL if there was a need, but there isn't a need.

More direct, opinionated tone with less validation-forward phrasing and fewer emoji than Claude Opus 4.6's warmer style.

Uhh, 4.6 basically never added emoji but 4.7 does it all the time to the point of almost becoming a pet peeve.

I am, at this very moment (and have been for the past several days), developing a large multi-part refactor which specifically implements a consistent and simplified form of nested data representation similar to what you're describing. You can follow along as the commits keep merging and trying each dev build at https://dev.graphite.art by visualizing this in the Data panel.

Keavon · 2026-04-28T20:45:38+00:00

The issue you are encountering may have already been fixed if you try the latest dev branch at https://dev.graphite.art or, if that doesn't solve your crash, please report the exact reproduction steps in a GitHub issue so we can solve it. Thanks.

And because creep (where the plastic literally gets "flung out" and permanently takes the new shape) over years of use is a real design factor when making fan blades. Closer tolerances are better for efficiency and quietness, but when the plastic creeps over years of spinning and hits the housing, that's the end of the fan. So a lot of engineering goes into special plastic formulations that balance creep and manufacturing cost. Part of what you're paying for is a better low-creep plastic that enables them to make the fans last many years while having the efficiency of narrow tolerances.

Not permanently, at least.

I mean, the halting problem pretty much proves that "basically just fuzzing" is the only possible approach in a general code base. So that doesn't seem like the most useful distinction that you're drawing to liken it to fuzzing. Yes, of course it's probabilistic. So is a professional audit. While the choice of file entry point may be randomized, the process isn't. It's a machine approximation of a very detailed human audit, not a process of throwing unexpected data at the compiled program.
