I’ve never had any trouble running adobe software on Linux.
I’ve also never tried, but still the statement is technically correct.
I’m laughing way too hard at this.
Honestly this is the best answer.
Like, use the tools that work for your use case?
I fucking hate macs but man using a video editor on windows was a pain back in the day. Where I would rather set up a server on Linux, than use whatever the hell windows servers operate.
What? This is a normal headphone dongle for macs.
Good faith response here so pardon me if it’s a swoosh moment. One of my devices is a fairly recent Mac. And it has a headphone jack. Which I appreciate greatly.
But is it SCSI or 1/4" TRS?
Don’t be ridiculous, mac users have neat and tidy usb hubs. iPhone users on the other hand…
Or just use Photopea like a non-self abusive person
try gimp first and if you spend 15 minutes raging, use photopea.
Too late, in too deep with gimp never gonna leave 🥲
That’s why I said Photopea instead of GIMP
I have the opposite problem
I learned GIMP first
When I try to use Photoshop/Photopea/whatever I’m useless at it because the keymaps are all different.
i don’t graphic design or edit images really and photopea is barable if i want to do more than add text.
“This is what me and the boys biologically did you your mom last night”
You daisy chain your dicks in the others ass in descending order of size until the smallest one fucks her?
One thrusts every second, the next one every two, then four, …
Yes.
Jesus Christ man
There are Linux users trying to use Photoshop?
As a challenge… for science 👀…
Are you trying to use a guitar as an input device for PhotoShop?
angry F chord
Everybody knows d minor is the saddest of all keys.
Are you criticizing my MIDI art?
???
What else would you use?
Reverse polarity positron emitter.
Surely you’d want the detector?
That’s the fun part. The emitter is the detector. It will invert the beam of it detects anything.
The answer is very much “Don’t run Photoshop”
(Fuck Adobe. There, I said it)
“It is always ethical to pirate adobe”
It’s never unethical to pirate Adobe, but it’s always more ethical to use Free Software instead and deny Adobe the mindshare.
It’s far more ethical to make the company lose money
Minimum amount for photoshop is 22$/month
Pirate photoshop
Delete it
Pirate again
Repeat 30 times
Adobe looses 660$
If everyone does this adobe will loose so much
Investors hate this one glitch!
That’s not at all how piracy works. They don’t lose any money by me not buying their product, the money was never theirs to lose. They can earn money if I buy it, but if I don’t, then nothing changed. It’s not like every company is entitled to my money.
Pirating or using Gimp or Krita instead, has the exact same effect on them, ie me not buying their product.
You must be fun at parties.
Gimp is behind on features and ui optimisation and krita is art focused
Goto www.PhotoPea.com instead. :)
Sadly there is no alternative that is even remotely as capable
Gimp has been just fine.
It depends on what you do
Well the obvious answer would be all the professional Photoshop capable things man, we can love Linux and still admit there’s areas for growth
If you want to edit photos then Affinity is passable, and GIMP is a joke.
If all you want to do is draw, then Krita is a very capable alternative to Photoshop, but being good at only a specific subset of Photoshop capabilites doesn’t turn it into a replacement for it
I make my memes in gimp and it works for me.
Fuck I’d love an actual equivalent alternative on Windows too. GIMP, while great in the past, is nowhere near modern Photoshop, it’s closer to modern Paint, which is just sad.
There’s a ton of people and businesses that hate Adobe, the lack of real alternatives is fascinating.
Krita, rawtherapee, dark table, digikam, affinity. Just depends what you are trying to do. If you’re used to photoshop there’s nothing exactly the same and it will take effort to move but I think it’s worth it, I’m still on the journey of learning as a hobbyist and have mostly been using dark table for photo editing
Darktable is fine as a hobbyist, but it doesn’t fully replace Lightroom when you get into semi-professional and professional workloads.
I need to give it another try, but my 12TB raw file library is so unwieldy to manage that I haven’t tried importing it all there. Plus the AI generative removal and Denoising is pretty important to a lot of my workflows.
Fuck Adobe
I was taking to my sister, who is an artist, about setting up Linux and warned them about poor Adobe support. Their response was “⭐ 𝒻𝓊𝒸𝓀 𝒶𝒹𝑜𝒷𝑒 ⭐” due to their AI shenanigans and high costs.
So thanks modern Adobe for making it easier for people to switch to Linux.
When I first used the Adobe suite it was on a Mac, I assumed it ran best on non-Windows machines. This was in 2005… Why would they have to make it so hard to use on Linux?
It’s a conspiracy, orchestrated by Big Adapter
They just don’t wanna port it to Linux… it’s basically that simple.
Not too hard with WinApps. I just use GIMP.
You can skip 3 of these adapters if you upgrade to the latest libraries, downgrade your microcode, turn off WiFi, and bench press a goat. It turns out it was the goat involved I’m the process, rather than the sacrifice, that made that stuff work.
Say what you will, this is an efficient and elegant way to store your adapters. I’m envious.
Until you need one and your OCD having ass can’t break the chain so you buy a new one …
just install gimp. much more straightforward and customizable. and it is foss

I was hoping I could plug it into my guitar & watch the sounds on an old computer monitor…
Do you think it would work?
All we need to do is build a similar setup and then find a guitar and a CRT and see what happens
Edit: actually, I’ve got a guitar and a CRT and maybe half of the pieces there. The big thing I’m concerned about is destroying the CRT. I have no idea how sensitive CRTs are or how much power is coming from a guitar.
I have no idea if it would work, but I do have a spare CRT monitor if you blow yours up.
Maybe look into a direct box? I had to use one when recording to change the ohms between the instrument & the usb interface in the tower.
I’ll take a look at it. The CRT is a bit sentimental to me (it’s the same model as the one my first PC had, managed to find one on eBay in good condition after like, a year of searching) which is why I’m concerned about blowing it up. However, I might see if any electronics recycling places in my area have a shitty, beat-up CRT TV they’d be willing to part with. That said, I discovered recently that most of the remaining recycling places in my area are run by computer enthusiasts and tend to sell or hold onto anything with any value like CRTs though, so wish me luck.
Kinda genius really. Into old PCs but don’t wanna pay eBay prices for them? Become an electronics recycler and then people will pay you to take their old SGI workstations and Sony BVMs.
The only way you’ll blow your CRT is if you tried to plug that dongle monstrosity into the speaker output of a power amp haha, guitars have a high impedance signal. Direct boxes actually lower the impedance, so that definitely won’t help make your output safer. (Still safe) So I say go for it directly from the guitar, the worst that can happen is nothing, (which is likely) which probably means you actually do need to lower the impedance with a direct box. (Which I still doubt would work but who knows) An amp with a line out or a digital pedal board would be the most likely options for actually getting sound through.
Do you know what the tolerances are on connectors like VGA, coax, and bnc? My monitor has VGA and BNC, so BNC might be easier to use (fewer intermediate steps, more control due to separate sockets for sync, r/g/b, etc). I’m curious if you might know how high the voltage can go before I run the risk of frying something.
Also, my guitar is an acoustic-electric with a preamp, which would probably make a difference.
Photo pea use webapps if it feels comfy.
