Yeah I used to pirate Adobe software religiously. Every version. Now I just use inkscape and suffer through the occasional GIMP session.

Honestly I don’t run pirated software at all anymore. The risk is too high. If it’s a game then I’m happy to pay for it, and open source software covers pretty much everything else for me.

The only exception is switch games but they run through an emulator which is quite safe.

Most media files are safe but I’ve heard that PDFs of all files can be vectors.

Yeah. If people stopped bugging me at work my productivity would 2x for sure.

Meanwhile my 110wpm on QWERTY is not exactly holding me back.

I’ve always wanted to use DVORAK but just don’t have the time to learn something so large and new (to me) at this stage of life. Gotta pick your battles.

I thought dkms was recommended only for alternative kernels, and that nvidia or nvidia-open is what’s recommended generally.

Not what you’re asking about, but this guy was very inspirational for me wrt making latex diagrams easily.

[–] maxprime@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

Tbf most Canadian grade 9 teachers skip it.

I teach this to my grade 9 class in Canada. It’s on the curriculum.

All vectors will be bitmaps when displayed on a screen.

Yeah but sometimes you want a circle in a bitmap.
