What's your favorite FOSS tools for image editing?
  • I prefer:

    • ImagePipe: fast edit
    • Snapseed: complex edit (not FOSS)
    • Aves: gallery
    • Superimage: AI upscaler (RealESRGAN)
    • Waifu2x NCNN: AI upscaler (Waifu2x, RealCuGAN)

    What's your favorite FOSS tools for image editing?
  • With ChaiNNer you can remove background, upscale (local), it's a lot more flexible and compatible with models than Upscayl, also a little bit more complex (node based, not as complex as comfyUI). You can upscale an image with a face model and use other model for everything else in the same image.

    Laptop Recommendation Please (Solved)
  • Use Termux, you need:

    • Android Tablet/Smartphone.
    • Bluetooth keyboard.
    • Cheap stand 4 device.

    That's my setup to play tabletop rpg (DND5E) for a couple of years, all CLI using any text editor you like with markdown. I use: tmux, vis.

    In your case: SC-IM, visidata, any text editor.

    With Termux you can use packages from repo or from other distros with proot-distro, like: Alpine, Avoid, Debian, Arch, Fedora, Ubuntu.

    Any AI image editing and manipulation software/projects?
    • ChaiNNer: is very flexible and can do all of that. Node based.
    • Upscayl: do only upscales with less models, but has simpler UI, very fast in AMD GPU (because NCNN).

    • I haven't tried automatic1111 or ComfyUI yet.
    • All of them work offline withou limits and are more flexible than online alternatives.

    GIMP has:

    Did One Guy Just Stop a Huge Cyberattack?
  • Do you know the exploit was detected in Debian Sid? (by a PostgreSQL developer), Arch got the update (with both compromised versions), but because don't directly link openssh to liblzma (as Debian), and thus this attack vector is not possible.

    Also, other rolling distros also got the compromised versions, maybe: openSUSE Tumbleweed, Endeavour OS, Fedora Rawhide, Slackware -current, etc.

    Since when did 1337x start doing this crap?
  • Today got that, I can't copy magnet. No need to disable UBO, just did "block element", that created in my filters:

    1337x.to###freevpnBG
    

    And now works as expected.

    A modern resume template written in Typst, inspired by Awesome-CV
  • Someone already post that. Typst it's already a lot easier to use, with meaningful errors and markup near markdown and don't need 200x hard disk space, nor dependencies to work.

    Does anyone know of a FOSS version of this (android keyboard with hexagonal keys?)
  • I've tried FOSS keyboards, but always return to Gboard, my particular needs are: Swype and bilingual suggestions (English and Spanish). There are alternatives for Swype style, but none works good with bilingual language.

    As an alternative I use, Unexpected keyboard, very good and small, is like a better and updated hacker's keyboard (abandoned). Give this a try. Very useful specially with Termux or similar.

    San Andreas ROM for PS2 has been taken down by Rockstar on Vimm's Lair
  • Last time I did check Cdromance, don't have links to download anymore, I like that place because has many roms with patched QoL romhacks. Maybe now you need to have an account.

    Former distrohoppers, where did you settle down?
  • Beginning: Ubuntu.
    Until today: Arch

    Why? I found in Arch updated software that I was interested at that time, I liked the rolling distro, minimalism, AUR.

    I'm happy with my TWM (DWM) and multiplexer (tmux).

    I did install other distros in old hardware like Slitaz, Debían that needs 32 bit.

    I'm interested right now in things like Alpine and Void, because small and functional in Termux or older hardware. And some distrobox (similar to proot-distro in Termux).

    Now learning a little bit of Groff with markdown (pandoc) to create PDF, for a small and fast typesetting. I haven't found a way to convert markdown to pdf using MOM macros in Groff.

    How often do you contribute to open source projects?
  • Sometimes, Issues in software that I'm interested. I don't code, just very simple shell scripting. For that reason I have a GitHub account, and other one in Gitlab that I did for just 1 project.

    Alright boys, I've been converted to the light side and have installed F-Droid. Now what?
  • Your right, now I did remove FFUpdater, I've got Mull updated adding DivestOS Official repo to Droidify (included, but you need to enable), and Cromite from GitHub.

    Because Mull from default repo is 1 version and 2 weeks behind.

    Alright boys, I've been converted to the light side and have installed F-Droid. Now what?
  • If your new, just install and use Droidify (is a lot faster than F-droid).

    Now I use:

    • Obtanium 4 things that aren't in F-droid or prefer faster update (like Newpipe).

    recommendations for lightweight window managers for an old netbook
  • Maybe netsurf, Dillo or w3m/links, if you don't need JavaScript, if you do, you need at least 4GB RAM to have a better web experience.

    Today's web is very RAM hungry (bloat).

    Intel or AMD for ffmpeg?
    • Hardware (GPU) encoders are worst than software encoders.
    • GPU Acceleration is good for faster encoding and free CPU to do other things. But you get bigger files at similar quality.
    • Maybe is useful for live streaming or if you really really need CPU do other things.
