Damn, a major British political leader is attempting to mend internal party conflicts with a vote. Cameron really is back.

What's the flag south of the Confederate one? I can't find it on here.

Edit: Never mind, it's Rhodesia

My standard for anything is that if it's not moldy, it's fine.

Tablet, for whatever reason it gives blobby output like this:

It's main advantage, as far as I can tell, is having a much simpler interface. It's snapping tools are trivial to use and discover, but far less robust than Krita's assistant tool. It's easier to add brushes, but you have far less options in configuring them. I don't thinks there's anything that Firealpaca can do that's partially hard to do in Krita. Also, Firealpaca doesn't have a dark mode.

I'm not an experienced artist though, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

Its brush engine is kinda bad though. You basically have to turn on "Zero pressure at both ends" and put the stabiliser up to like 15 to get anything usable. Not sure I can recommend it.

Beeper's one, though they only fork the Element GUI which isn't affected by this.

No it isn't, you pronounce an acronym as if it was its own word. The A and O in NATO are pronounced nothing like the ones in Atlantic and Organisation.

I do dislike Twitter, especially after Mr Muskrat took over, but it's not the only reason. One, it's annoying to have to click a link and open another website to read a paragraph of text.

Second, Twitter doesn't show full threads to people who aren't logged in. It doesn't matter in this case, but if this was multiple tweets, then people who don't have an account would only be able to read the tweet directly linked.

If we're going to just link to a tweet, can we at least copy the text here.

Sam Bright:

Bombshell from Dominic Cummings at the COVID Inquiry.

He claims that there were concerns in Downing Street of "possible corruption" surrounding Boris Johnson "funnelling money" through George Osborne to the Evening Standard (owned by Tory peer Evgeny Lebedev) during the pandemic

He also links to this really good article from the Byline Times.

Imagine using software where the defaults are good.
