FUCK ADOBE!
Today is the end of, what is for me, a very long era.
I'm nixing my CC subscription, just doing Illy, which I absolutely need, and am moving off my once-beloved Photoshop to Affinity Photo. I've been using Photoshop since version fucking 3.
But, I use Photoshop so little, and generally for really basic things I could've done with Photoshop 7(or whatever), so it's really hard to justify continue paying for. I really don't use anything else in the CC suite either.
By the way, Affinity are selling their wares at half price at the moment.
So long, and thanks for the fish.
:(
.
Affinity Designer's a steaming mess to my eyes though, so although I have it, I think I'll continue not using it.
- Cue PonyBoy in 3, 2, 1...Nairn
- I'll be saving myself £370 over the next year, and about £410 per year subsequently.Nairn
- It's not much, monthly, but given I've been looking all my finances recently (I wonder why?), it's not an insignificant amount at the end of the year either.Nairn
- media encoder to cut and convert mp4 to gifsted
- I've been using the Affinity suite for a year or so. My usage is light, so it's been great. The only issue I ran into is it doesn't handle .webp files.section_014
- Doing the same at end of year when CC sub is up. I don't need CC like I used to. Affinity fills the gap now. BTW Affinity apps 50% right now.ETM
- I'm sure you know, but there are tons of vids on YT for all things Affinity. Good luck!stoplying
- I still use Audition, Photoshop, Illy, Bridge...sometimes Premiere and started now with Lightroom. I know alternatives to all of them except Bridge.oey_oey
- And I could live without Adobe for what I do but having all at once seemingly integrated and just there...I have all Affinity Apps but I couldn't make the jumpoey_oey
- huh? hmm... had no idea I made that sort of impression on you... I have little opinion about your post btw outside I'm glad you seem content w/your choice. xoxoPonyBoy

Russia-Ukraine Invasion
Are we in a trap of confirmation bias?

- *whatever looks bettersted
- The question is, what does he mean by wins? How can you say Russia inevitably wins without defining it?yuekit
- If Russia's goal is to seize as much territory as possible from Ukraine then by definition the war is not pointless, because it's a fight for where thoseyuekit
- borders will be.yuekit
- Ukraine just needs to keep killing Russian solders at the current rate for Russia to exhausted its young male population by the end fo 2023.shapesalad
- The demographics of Russia suck. The motivation is dwindling. The leadership are ageing. The resources are falling.shapesalad
- Germany however.. that's a different situation. Shot themselves in the foot removing nuclear power. Their eco wind farms are redundant. Their population is old.shapesalad
- let's discuss yet another foreign country next, so we don't have to focus on our own broke governments!uan
- If figures are to be believed, Russia is losing about 150 troops per day, Ukraine about 100.Nairn
- Historian here has some blindspots - Japan, Afghanistan... the Cold War. Never mind their gains in WW1/2 were much down to UK/US industrial assistance...Nairn
- ...(ie. aid to ramp up domestic industrial capability), which they have the exact-opposite of in this conflict.Nairn
- Kinda agree with this. They did the same to Ottomans for 300 years. They are the main reason for the collapse of the empire. Attrition. They were much poorer.Beeswax

The Russia thread.
There are rumors that Putin's circle has convinced him that if he lives for another 10 years, they will be able to digitize his brain so he can rule forever, and he genuinely believes it

Apple
My Iphone SE 2016 just keeps soldiering on. It's still being updated. It's still snappy as always. Occasional repairs and battery changes are cheap. The longevity of Iphones is pretty amazing, IMO.- Also, most repair shops have Iphone parts readily available. Now compare this to a 2 year old Huawei or similar.jagara
