There's a new Linux-only proprietary image editor called Fog Panther. Do not install it, it's AI-generated slopware. It breaks file associations on your system and can't be uninstalled normally.

There is a request open on Flathub to have it removed from there.

Krita can't open krita files, not suported format. After installing Fog Panther on Linux

(OS: Xubuntu 24.0.4) A few hours ago I was going to check a ‘krita=kra’ file and Krita told me this; ´ This format is not supported’. I tried older KRA files, same warning. I could open JPG, but I didn’t try any other formats. Tried Krita 4.2,1, 5.3.0, 5.3.1.. ´ This format is not supported’. I thought back, and realized I tried ‘FogPanther’ yesterday.

just as a general fyi, the Toki Pona conlang community has launched a new website, because the old one is under the personal control of someone who is currently in a long-term crisis. And they're also looking for anyone who closely knows the original creator of Toki Pona in real life to hopefully help her https://tokipona.net/wile-pona/

Listening the the podcast "Newbie Star Trek" (one of the first episode) and I hear say stuff like : "They make Quark to deepen the fereguies but he was an exception to the rule" and like...

No? Quark is a very normal ferengui. That's the point. Quark is adaptable. He wants to keep doing business on DS9 so he has to adapt to the new population and authority on the station. So of course he ends up being relatively progressive, because his business depends on it.

His brother and his nephew are way more changed by the contact with the federation than him, and this too pull him toward being... less horrible, shall we say?

Seven, you still haven't learned to knock?

I do like the little talk between Seven and Kathryn at the end. The writers have found a very good character to do in universe FAQ. XD

The two perspectives also fit the characters well.

I do like the effort of Kathryn (and Voyager's crew) to explore and make first contact with other civilizations. I just wish that they would not be sooo willing to play by the bullshit rules of the day.

The double standard of "We have to respect their ways but they don't have to reverse the curtsy" is a bit too extreme and it leads to complacency with a lot of fucked up things.
