  • Probably going to just add more confusion to the blend than anything with this comment but…

    It is my sincere belief that most of the quantum effects that are described are actually illusions. For example, short-lived particles arising from fluctuating quantum fields - if they actually existed we would likely observe some form of life harvesting that energy.

    I mean hell, this is not outside the boundary of evolution, gecko feet use quantum effects to stick the walls.

    I think a lot of this theoretical physics dealing with fields and virtual particles is the same situation, it’s only the presentation of an effect but not “real”.

    I’ll block anybody for any reason. But most of the time it’s for demonstrating the wit of a nit.

    I don’t need people to make me feel happy, I just need people to be able to discuss things like a reasonably intelligent human being.

    Thank you. I lived through the “Macs can’t get viruses” bullshit. Try being a teacher in a school with 200 Macs and find out how real that claim is. Yeeeeesh lol… two weeks after fresh imaging and new semester starting 50% of the machines would be completely b0rked










  • Hey I don’t want to come off the wrong way, couple decades ago gimp was very useful to me, when I was trapped in a company that wouldn’t pay a penny for any kind of software, and on the FOSS side of things choices for imaging applications were sparse at best. Gimp was a lifesaver at times.

    But it always been an interface disaster. I spent decades doing UI/X alongside other development, and gimp has always been a piece of shit designed by a programmer with the toxic “what it works” mentally.
