Many digital cameras don't actually rotate the pixels when you rotate the camera, they just tell the metadata that the image should be displayed rotated. So this is why removing the metadata causes the image to rotate on Lemmy or similar sites.
Could someone ELI5 on how I could maybe fix it? I tried rotating it pre-posting so it would post correctly, but it would post it as “edited” and it was still wrong. I’ve tried with both Connect and Jerboa.
Hahaha. Yeah I really lucked out with all three of these dudes. Bandit loves to sit with me but never ON me. Usually between the legs or squished up next to the outside of a leg. Noki is mostly the same but it’s not as common. Scooter will walk all over you for a few minutes and get pets but then he likes to go lay down just out of reach. He likes his space. Oh and they are all super chill about belly rubs, no traps just legit belly rubs. Lol
It’s Axiom Verge, maybe Axiom Verge 2? This picture is from last winter and I played both, one after the other so I’m not sure which it was. Both are great if you enjoy Metroidvania style games.
If I enjoy Metroidvania style games… I replay symphony of the night like some people reread favorite books. Thank you! I’m so excited to try these out.
As a Metroidvania fan, I was so excited when the trailer for the first one came out. I’ve really enjoyed playing both of these games. And then Hollow Knight as well. We have so many great indie Metroidvania titles these days.
Even more lols when you are gigabyte and your private key leaks. Also when you are gigabyte and your signed driver is used to privilege escalate malware.
And that’s why certificates can be revoked, that’s the whole point, trust. It only costs a few hundred a year per Microsoft’s documentation and approved vendors so it doesn’t seem that much of an ask. At the very least you can look up the developer yourself, harder to do if the package has no identity associated with it
I can navigate Windows well enough for my job, but I’d never choose it for personal use. I’m no Linux expert, but I haven’t yet been faced with a problem I couldn’t solve.
I was taught to use Ubuntu Linux by a middle aged engineer in another field who demanded "the brown operating system" on his computer over a decade ago, so yes, I agree, day to day Linux hasn't been hard for over a decade.
Didn’t say it was hard. To be clear…by saying “well enough,” I mean that I don’t have any major problems with it…I’m just no expert. I find that there are two many pointless “utilities” that only slow the machine down. Both of my last two (brand new) computers have had both Windows and Ubuntu installed before adding anything else. There’s actually still nothing on the Windows partitions, but whenever I switch to it, it’s like switching from a car to a bicycle. It’s ridiculous how Windows can be so, so slow “right out of the box,” while Ubuntu just works.
Windows is blazingly fast on any decently spec’d machine these days. Boot times of like 5 seconds. Everything loaded up after you login basically instantly.
I wish I were you. I’m constantly running into problems that I either can’t solve, or end up spending way more time on than it’s probably worth. My last Geruda linux install became unbootable because I tried to change the system font to a different existant preset. The error I got, of course, only had 2 prior instances referenced on Le Google, both of which were in completely different contexts than mine such that either the recommended fix did not work, or I didn’t have the tools available to follow it.
I’m still not switching back to Windows though because fuck 'em.
I think your problem is you are using a niche Arch derivative that has a small user base. You should definitely consider using more mainstream distros so you can easily find the help you need until you are comfortable and feel confident with using Linux.
I’d use a mainstream distro. I came to Linux in 2017, used Ubuntu for 4 years until I got tired of them forcing snaps down my throat, and then went to Arch. I have never distro-hopped, but I also have never had any huge issues with the mainstream distros.
The main distros really are well maintained and do tend to “just work”. Dare I say, especially Ubuntu.
I wrote some open source software and looked into how to make that not happen. It’s not easy on Microsoft, and on Apple it costs more than a $100/year!
Not only that; You have to pay for updates too. Supposedly it’s because Apple takes time to verify that the app is legit and not going to do nefarious things. So they don’t want a bad actor to get a legit app on the store, then later push an update that infects everyone with a virus.
But apparently a company did a study and realized that app testing rarely made it past the main page, with testers spending ~15-20 seconds per app. They’d basically open it and if it looked like it did what it said, they didn’t bother digging any deeper.
You have to pay for a license to be able to publish apps to the store, yes. This isn’t a bad thing, mainly just for the fact that it stops a lot of trash from being put on there.
Yes. It’s actually rather tragic I strive to run my business NOT using big tech. But we need an app for our users. On Apple this means you simply MUST pay apple. 100/year is not a lot. I just don’t want to give them my business.
Even if you’re fired and end up homeless and starve to death, suffering is only temporary because soon you’ll die and your life won’t even be a measurable blip on the timeline of the universe and within 3 or 4 generations you’ll all but be completely forgotten… So why not leave early
Where I live (Philadelphia suburbs) it’s exactly like this except both people are driving. And they always get pissed when you honk because roads aren’t for actual driving or anything.
What especially pisses me off about this sort of thing is that I KNOW both people are on Facebook and already know every fucking thing there is to know about the other person.
Yet they still need to catch up on the latest gossip about their kids or the new newigbour who someone saw naked doing OF stuff in front of a camera 😒… like who gives AF, it’s their business, not mine, why would would anyone care about someone else’s business is beyond me.
