i used to support a lot of FOSS in my past

but now...

i prefer to use software that works well for me.

FOSS is still my priority but if there is a software with better workflow, i'll pay for it even it's not FOSS

open source or not, if that software cannot save your time and too much learning curve, it means that software isn't ready for professional use.
Someone may defy me, but for solving technical problem, Gemini is a good friend to talk with.
In the amidst of chaos, there is still the infinite space to do whatever i want (according to the current circumstamces)

The feeling when I finally solved my touchpad problem (in linux) that has stayed for years..... 

It reminds me of my childhood day when i succesfully solved difficult puzzle. That satisfying feeling makes me craving more problem to solve.

Of course i'm still an ameteur on everything, but that position gives me a freedom to learn everything, to allow me to be a fool, to absord everything i want.

This is interesting, but not for the obvious reasons:

The era of Photoshop may be ending, as Adobe stocks take a battering
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/era-photoshop-may-ending-adobe-165724311.html

tl;dr Adobe's stock is down because "AI" so Yahoo concludes this is the end of the "Photoshop era".

What's interesting here is that "Photoshop era" is ending – according to Yahoo – not because users are turning away. It's because *investors* are.

The "market" for software and services is a side-show. Only the stock market matters.

The era of Photoshop may be ending, as Adobe stocks take a battering 📉

Is the era of Photoshop over? The stock market seems unconvinced of many traditional SaaS companies offerings as artificial intelligence takes center stage.

i know that X is not a good social media, but i'm still using it for connecting with great thinkers.

question: i'm using Vivaldi browser, but why Vivaldi can't let me sign in to X? It happens both on my laptop & PC @Vivaldi

Why I don't use Ubuntu-family?

SImply because it's from Canonical.

And I feel I have more control on my PC with Debian (plus I have a balance to not overtweak my PC and just use my PC as I want).

Why I'm so persistent to use Debian even i'm a casual Linux user?

- Debian is so stable. Low maintenance. I don't need to spend a lot of time to tinker my computer. I prefer to use my computer as my tools to get things done.

- I love FOSS & Debian's core philosophy and wanna supporting them as I can

- Even if I meet an unintended error in my PC, I'm sure i still can fix it (thanks to many helpful forum)

- Many FOSS offer Debian packages

- I just love the old school & efficient thing.

I'm home...

After 2 years ago played with Debian (and back to Windows), now I'm a full-fledged Debian user again.

I'm not LInux superuser, but I think i can handle most of my daily task with Linux.

Hopefully my new future jobs doesn't require me to go back to Windows again 😅
