Keeping things simple.
While I don’t have the answers I did attempt to write a book for fun many years ago. It was quite an eye opening experience, because it turns out writing a book is hard, and very time consuming. I was only about 20 pages in before I gave up the idea.
That said, you don’t have to actually write a book. Writing creative essays, short stories, and even articles can be very rewarding without needing any long-term commitments. I’d give those a shot before jumping into something as big as making a real book. I still enjoy writing and I’m sure you will too, but you need a ton of commitment to make a book.
The trick is to always be prepared…
Edit: I was going to say and always have alternate accounts from my alt account but this comment isn’t showing up there lol. Seems Lemmy World is still having server struggles.
Edit 2: For all fellow Lemmy World users, it seems federation is pretty broken right now. No comments are going through.
I was coming to comment this. I’ve used a lot of free video editing software over the years and most of them are ass. The ones that aren’t usually have a catch like watermarking your output. Davinci resolve came out of nowhere for me and blew me away, it’s everything you could want in a video editing program but free!
Oh come on, I just started using it two days ago! Libreddit often doesn’t work these days.
You should give it a shot, it’s pretty fun and West of Loathing isn’t that long to finish.
West of Loathing and its sequel Shadows of Loathing have a bland grayscale artstyle on the outside but they’re absolutely hilarious RPGs that have a lot of heart to them.
I have had some people refuse to even try Baba Is You, because it looks ugly.
Oh come on, the art style is charming!

Worth noting if you’re serious about Flash emulation, check out Flashpoint Archive. They have ways to play almost every single flash game and animation out there through a convenient launcher.
what kind of safeguards can we put in place to stop it from being abuse
Realistically, zero. Stable Diffusion is open source for better or worse and that means people can tailor it for their needs.

Dear god, I expected old memes but this is super vintage I don’t think most people would even know this
Could you mention what apps you needed to run?
I don’t remember which they were exactly but some Adobe products were some of them. Specifically Illustrator.
Also, fractional scaling has been improved a lot in Gnome and KDE, afaik.
I hope so. I’ve last been on Linux like ~2 years ago and I’ve heard some good changes.
A few apps I needed didn’t work on Linux without a hassle and a lot of games I play with friends only run on Windows. I also found a lot of things were kind of a hassle on Linux, especially screen scaling. Fractional screen scaling straight up barely works and everything on my laptop screen was usually tiny.
I would totally go back when the experience is a bit nicer, I’m pretty frustrated with Windows. I think the Linux desktop experience isn’t totally ready imo.
No Schweppes? For shame.
Also, cheers to my milk tea brethren.
I’m not sure if you can do this on the app you’re using, but on the website you can click on your profile --> settings --> disable “Show NSFW Content” and hit save.
Who said anything about Linux becoming Windows?
