what?
there’s a popular free image editing program called GIMP (judging by the post id assume it’s probably also open-source). Anyways, if you Google “GIMP” you’ll probably see a lot of pictures of leather.
Ah, yeah. The image had me thinking there was some other meaning for FOSS I didn’t know about.
Why would I see leather when googling GIMP? I only associate gimp with the FOSS GNU Image Manipulation Progrsm
From Wikipedia:
“A bondage suit, also commonly called a gimp suit, is a form-fitting garment designed to cover the body completely […] A bondage suit is sometimes used in BDSM to objectify the wearer, or gimp, and reduce them to the status of a sexual toy, rather than a sexual partner.”
Kagi still put gimp.org as a search result for “gimp suit”.
But I’m very surprised I didn’t know this meaning of gimp, thanks!
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Zed is dead.
Definitely read this as floss.
even better!

F.L.O.S.S.
Nice try, Dentist.
i thought it was licensed
Seems redundant
It emphasizes that free refers to freedom, not price.

Oh man, when sync for Lemmy launched, so many people lost their minds of it not being foss.
It was a glories few weeks.
If you try to defend it, no. Otherwise yes
Affinity > all photoshop alternatives
Sorry
Your use of > rather than ≥ correctly indicates that Affinity is not a Photoshop alternative at all (going by other comments about how it’s not even available on Linux).
How does it compare to PS? After becoming comfortable in PS, I find the work flow in anything else cumbersome and hard to adjust to.
Very rarely do I need to google how to do something
It’s about as close to photoshop as you can legally make a paid photoshop clone
Isn’t Affinity more an Illustrator alternative since it’s vector?
Just like Photoshop it has multiple softwares, Affinity is the brand name. It has a rastor program and and vector program, as well as a third software I think is like light room
Affinity Designer is an Illustrator alternative, Affinity Photo is their Photoshop competitor and Affinity Publisher is an InDesign clone. The company that makes the Affinity products is called Serif. Hope this helps to clarify.
I just checked this out. Seems great, but I was bummed to see they only support iOS, and not Android. Any idea if they plan to extend to Android?
I doubt it happens. They also don’t support linux.
They’ll never support other platforms. Imagine being forced to purchase a whole system to use a single application.
Imagine thinking you’re being forced
If they want to use the application … they are forced to purchase a whole system.
Not so difficult to understand.
Or is there any other way to use the application?
Lol, you’re not being FORCED to do anything dude. No one here is FORCING you to use it. Not so difficult to understand.
Also, you can run it on Linux using WINE
How would you describe it?
Apparently apple joined the fediverse the other day based on my feed, I don’t see anyone slighting them.
Wait until OP learns about LaTeX.
It’s a mother. fucking. chi!
I allergic to that. Is there an alternative called NiTriL, by any chance?
searching latex on a safe-search-off computer was always a ride.
Some interesting LATEX-related searches:
- latex wrap
- latex confine to table
- latex change orientation

yup. my HS professor did that when he tried to show us how to install it xD

I only got 1 big tooth so no floss for me
Why do I need a leather fetish to edit photos?
My favorite kind of jokes are the ones that take me a few seconds to figure out. Bravo, OP.
Ididnn’d get it…?
GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) = FOSS Photoshop alternative
I KNOW GIMP AND I LOVE IT. Didn’t know what gimp suit was lol
I knew what a gimp suit was, I just learned theres a software called gimp. Takes all kinds
I knew both, but just learned what FOSS stands for from this comment section
I knew FOSS and GIMP software but not gimp suit
There’s a photo editing software called gimp that is FOSS. Google gimp suits for more info.
Zentai but spicy
Is this best done on a work computer in the office as the boss is roaming about?
I’d actually call them over before searching.
Go on the journey of learning together, I’m sure they’d appreciate it :)
The fuck is foss?
Free open source software. Basically, it’s free, and you can see and use the code to your liking and even contribute to it. Good for communities, not good for companies failing to produce a similar product with notably better functions.
Software you can use, inspect, edit and share. Some examples are Firefox, Chromium, (GNU-)Linux, Android (except GApps) and VLC.
Free Opensource Software
I floss on Saturday
One day ought to do it! Well done.
Helthy teeth 👍
What is FOSS? I’m seriously asking
Free and open source software is a way of life. All hail the Richard Stallman.
Free and Open Source Software
(free as in freedom)
Sorry, but is free as in beer. As the word FLOSS exist: Free, Libre and Open Source Software.
Libre just translates to free.
So that term is redundant.
Bro wants to fact-check me on my own language lmao.
Libre means free as in freedom.
Incorrect. Something can be free (as in free beer) without being libre (free as in freedom) and something can be libre without being free.
When the tittle is better than the meme.
Ableton Live forces me to still use Windows on a machine :(
Did you try to run it through wine or vm like qemu?
Not personally but it’s been done with mixed results. Usually the application on it’s own is stable but doesn’t work with plugins and who knows about it’s integration with USB control and MIDI devices. Depending on your setup latency can be a significant issue and vm can introduce quite a lot. Reaper is my DAW of choice for Linux but Ableton Live is what I enjoy most and make the best stuff in. I don’t need a powerful machine for what I do with it though so an old laptop has always sufficed, which works out anyway because I don’t care as much if it gets damaged or stolen etc. Just wish I could be a full time linuxbro :(
What is foss anyway?
Foss stands for free and open source software.
You can use the code to make your own fork/version, as long it’s also free and open. Or I’m wrong and somebody will correct me.
Free (as in freedom) software bares the stipulation that if you use it, it must remain free. The criteria for being free are 1. You may view the source code. 2. You may edit the source code. 3. You may distribute the source code. 4. You may distribute the modifications to the source code. If you use the software the freedoms given to you are to be payed forward to all subsequent people who use it.
Open source only says you can see the source code, but it can be used in any closed sources or proprietary program.
In short. Free software is about ethics. Open Source software is about pragmatics (or so some may claim)
