@eylul thinking about getting my wife a wacom tablet or something for Christmas to get her started in digital art. Got any suggestions?

@brauner @stgraber this doesn't seem terribly unusual to me. When I left teams _within_ Canonical my maintainership of old projects was revoked. It seemed like reasonable opsec. When you're paid to work on something it seems that the assumption is when you're paid to work on something else you will no longer be contributing. Of course that's not always accurate, but it seems like a reasonable position to take.
@niemeyer how has this been going, after a few months?
@masoud @nextcloud thanks so much for the kind words!
@eylul also, she doesn't have an office, but typically works from a relatively set place.
@eylul she's a photographer (gimp, darktable), and I've read that these can be pretty useful for that as well. She's also a pretty good pencil artist, and I recently told her that what she thought was a painting was probably done on a computer, and she found it fascinating, so she may start playing with krita. I'd personally also like to use this experiment with the 2D animation using the grease pencil in blender 2.8. Do you think the Wacom Intuos Pro (medium) would satisfy these use-cases?

I've started a new blog/video series to teach hobbyists and kids about the tools the robotics pros use with hardware that costs less than $100. I'd love it if you checked it out! Here's the blog:

Call for testing: Darktable v2.2.5snap2, with a bugfix allowing for lens corrections: http://bit.ly/2zMwkO2
Call for testing: Darktable v2.2.5snap2
Hey everyone. To anyone who was annoyed by the fact that you couldn’t do lens corrections in the Darktable snap: that’s fixed in the next release, v2.2.5snap2. Please give v2.2.5snap2-rc1 a test to make sure, it’s in the candidate channel: $ sudo snap install --candidate darktable-kyrofa If you’re a photographer, particularly if you have some experience using Darktable, or even if you just want to poke at it, I’d love some help putting it through its paces! Please let me know if you run into ...
