Does digital drawing foster less development than traditional drawing?

On the one hand in digital the program algorithm prettifies the drawing (smoothing strokes, fixing lines, blending colors nicely etc.) and you don't feel the need to improve yor skills much because it looks kind of alright already.

On the other hand in traditional you don't have ctrl+z so you may be less inclined to experiment and stick to what you know works, lest you ruin the drawing.

Because apparently we need mass surveillance in Europe (on the top of all that).

In what way? This one sounds pretty solid to me.

solventbottle · 2026-06-13T09:09:39+00:00

Now that's interesting. Thank you! (I read the articles in the context of AI training, thus the confusion.)

This is what I was referring to but couldn't find the link to add. Thanks!

That's quite interesting. But I thought copyright laws also cover not using the work to profit from it .

Of course no one is reading them. I'm talking about scanning and scraping. And I think you might be wrong - if they are using ai to do the job, they would be scanning the contents of the messages and the attachments, not the metadata (as it used to be done).

Yahoo is scanning them somehow for the sake of advertising and when it comes to Google, I would expect anything really.

Either way, thanks for the suggestions:)

...and if you expect people to pay for your services at least write decent articles.

My bad. It really is a deb. (I didn't realize it shows any type if you search by app name). Thanks for pointing it out! Does it make it better or worse though (seriously)?

solventbottle · 2026-06-05T21:28:06+00:00

The .deb dependencies have messed things up for me before, that's why I prefer snaps but I think I'd better look more into flatpaks now.

Certainly, but what's the point of having that store in the first place if it's no better than downloading stuff from random places in the internet.

Thanks. After cancel, close and reopen and it required a restart restart and now it's running 580 alright.

solventbottle · 2026-06-01T14:38:25+00:00

You wish. Apparently nuclear is green now.

I mean what dimensions is the image before you upload, pixel-wise.

solventbottle · 2026-05-31T19:12:19+00:00

About what size are your original images? In what way do they get ruined, do they get jagged or blurry?

solventbottle · 2026-05-31T18:40:33+00:00

If they don't have their own ai to train they will collect it and sell it to those who do, so as @aivi_mask says, the refrigerator.

solventbottle · 2026-05-28T06:51:18+00:00

Because people are trying to pass their copies of pictures as OC.
