@Contrast , no one can accuse you of not being unique.

Nightmare fuel.

 

This software "LazPaint" is super light weight and can make gradient font templates just like paid adobe software can. It has a shitty layout and a few bugs but it's the only native program to Ubuntu that has this property (of making gradient text on command).





template files for auto access to gradients. I have no yet gave them thumbnail previews for recognition.



After clicking on a saved .lzp template it allows me to enter whatever text I want.




Ctrl A or R to select the text needed and copy into an external program like Gimp or a clipboard manager.




Gimp and Inkscape can also make gradient text but it takes more work and lacks automation.

Gimp can make professional cropped images in a click of a button using stroke brush. It's instant because I use keyboard shortcuts. Literally takes two seconds

Founder of Skeptic Magazine - Michael Shermer interviews Donald Hoffman about his idealist model.

Donald Hoffman is defending the position that consciousness is primordial to the Universe and that space-time and everything else emerged from it. He cites the hard problem of consciousness as being one of the biggest problems for modern science. Hoffman's team has a proved mathematical theorem that states animals that see reality go extinct. Where as animals that only focus on rewards (mates, raising young, food, shelter) survive. He argues that consciousness is ultimate reality and space-time is like virtual reality googels or like a GUI interface on a computer that allows us to do what we need to do.

IE the icons on a computer screen showing an email aren't actually that. Programming languages, 01010101010's and circuits, elecricity and wires hide the truth of the computer program showing a icon and window. Hoffman argues that reality is the same way and consciousness is at the core of reality.

Shermer doesn't buy it. Shermer insist that there is no hard problem of consciousness and that consciousness is just what neurons do when brains get complex enough. IE an emergent property of matter and the by product of computation. Shermer points out that only a small minority of quantum physicist actually believe that consciousness collapses the wave function and Donald's main argument is a fringe interpretation. Shermer reminds Hoffman that even if quantum physics shows space-time is emergent that it would almost certainly have nothing to do with consciousness.


I am skeptical of Hoffman's model and idealism, but I fail to understand why Shermer doesn't agree a hard problem exist. It's almost like they are arrogant for denying consciousness can't be explained in the standard model. I'm most interested in learning why some scientist consider consciousness a part of the natural world that needs investigation and why others call it an illusion. Obviously most scientist aren't talking about consciousness, but the ones who are have these two distinctions.

Linux is garbage on windows you can just click install and get a file going.

I wanted to install the latest version of mypaint and have it fused with gimp's brushes. Mypaint and gimp 2.10 can share brushes.

Mypaint has a click-install appimage that launches instantly however appimage is isolated from the rest of the system and does cannot share brushes with the gimp. Appimages are basically static linked applications.

I had to spend 15 minutes figuring out how to build it from source, downloading a bunch of python libraries, and .deb files from a newer version of Ubuntu. Eventually I got it and everything is working fine now. But the average user is not expected to be as technical as I am.

I can only imagine how sad it would be if a normal user that wasn't as technical as me ran into this problem and all the frustration it would cause them.
