As a kid I didn't understand hermits.

Now that I'm an adult, I'm jealous

I personally don't use Photoshop but was using it as an example. You could fill in the blank with other tools like AutoCAD, MS Office, QuickBooks/Quicken, etc.

I think there are two major hurdles keeping Linux adoption back (besides the obvious installation bit). The first is that our backwards compatibility is terrible. It is easier to get old versions of Windows software to run in Wine than it is to get some old Linux software to run natively.

If something like Photoshop did finally release a Linux version, even if they only did one release to make 2% of people happy, it likely wouldn't be able to run natively after 5 years.

The second is a good graphical toolkit. Yes, GTK and Qt exist, but neither are as simple as WinForms or SwiftUI/Aqua.

I think my favorite comment from that thread was "It's perfect for organizing people's /tmp folder" from outofpaper

It tried, but it missed some good context

This might be controversial, but the new Denis Villeneuve movies are much better than the book. Maybe watch the movies and read the book or trawl the wiki after for more context.

Well, you know the old adage: "Good artists copy, great artists steal"

We need an anime crash. Too many light novel isekai adaptions, not enough good stories. Change my mind.

I get this masterpiece stuck in my head at least once a week

Yeah, I was wondering why they were going to continue with such a dangerous mission after all the bad press Boeing has been getting lately. Sunk cost fallacy, maybe?

The only wrong choice is being indecisive, so you start by picking one and watching YouTube tutorials about it.
