I haven't touched Photoshop since like CS2 I think, so really can't compare the two, but I will say that GIMP 3 was a huge enancenent to GIMP. It now has non-destructive editing. For my common uses, this is giant. Not having to redo 8 steps because I decided step 1 wasn't right is so nice.
Of course Photoshop has done that for ages. My only point was that previous perceptions might be a little dated. And with the 3 update came with huge backend changes that will hopefully accelerate other feature development. Of course I'm sell on hope, but I'm excited for the future of GIMP. Also, now that 3 is out, they have been hinting that that are open to talk about a name change, which I think would be healthy if they want increased usage.
I think you can use the Apple watch as a remote shutter button, so he wouldn't need to do laps in the parking lot like a dad trying to get a family photo. But it is fun to imagine none the less.
Sounds like I stand corrected.
Doesn't the US already have full sanctions with Russia? So literally no trade is happening with them, so a tarrif would be pointless? Maybe I missed trump removing the sanctions at some point in his onslaught of nonsense.
For most people, the thought of replacing an outlet or switch is daunting to say the least. My IKEA smart bulbs are going on 7 years old and still working great.
I did replace every single outlet and switch in my house when I moved in, but that was before I knew about ZigBee or Zwave, and well before matter existed.
I don't feel the need to replace most of my switches and half of my outlets again.
I had a few Google Home devices, they had a switch to turn off the mic. I assume it was legit switch, because the thing literally yelled at you and had bright red lights any time you muted it. It literally said "The mic is turned off" every time it booted up in a voice that reminds me of a child tattling on their sibling.
Any smart lights I've seen always turn on when going from no power to power. It's a little annoying when the power blinks and half the house lights up, but it means physical switches always work.
Per your suggestion, I went out and took a new photo. The blog post has already been updated, but here's the image.
I agree. I really struggled finding good light once the acrylic was on. It was just too shiny. Maybe I'll try a daylight photo outside or something. In the article there are better pictures of the individual components though. It's also hard to get the 3D effect in a photo. I thought about trying to embed a short video/gif of it, but didn't have any handy.
We referred to it as the wild west even back then, and we knew eventually civilization would catch up.
