382·2 days agoThank you. Works well. I’m much happier with the interface I used for over 30 years in Photoshop, it’s helpful to have that emulated somewhat in GIMP.
I also tracked down how to set the scroll wheel to zoom without the need for the Ctrl key, which was another annoyance. I’ve tried before to discover this, but failed. Maybe I was looking at the official documentation, which could use some work. Anyway, here’s how to get the scroll wheel to zoom without the Ctrl key:

Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•Got a new glasses prescription today.English
5·4 days agoDo you wear the strap around the back of the head yet? I finally decided I didn’t care what it looked like, I was just tired of losing my glasses when I was doing home improvement tasks. I’d get hot and sweaty in the summer, and whenever I looked down, my glasses would slide down, or just fall off. It’s worth never needing to push my glasses up.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What substances are the local addicts using that make them always bending over at the waist?English
25·7 days agoResearch has not yet pinpointed what exactly causes the fenty fold, as fentanyl use is not known to directly affect the spine. Instead, it’s becoming clear that it is a neuromuscular side effect of synthetic opioids like fentanyl. Studies from the Journal of Applied Physiology and the Harm Reduction Journal highlighted similar findings that fentanyl use can lead to severe and widespread muscle rigidity, particularly in the trunk muscles, which restricts respiration and affects posture and mobility.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•People that have face/butt labeled towels must do a terrible job washing their buttsEnglish
2·8 days ago- Try to get the temperature just right, it’s still too hot when I get in.
- Stand under the water for a couple of minutes to get my bearings, and contemplate my life choices.
- Rub bar of soap vigorously between legs and under arms, hitting chest, arms, and back suggestively.
- Repeat step 2.
- Wash face, neck, and ears with wash cloth.
- Wash hair. If it’s short, use bar of soap. If it’s long, use shampoo.
- Shave, using bar of soap.
- Step 2, again.
~15 minutes to here, depending on how I’m feeling about myself.
- Get out and dry off with the towel that is only used for drying off after a shower, but hasn’t been washed in at least a month.
- Comb hair, brush teeth, swab ears, and put on antiperspirant.

At a glance, it looks like it requires signing up with their service, which means they can track everything I do. No, thanks. I’ll stick with Jellyfin.

News@lemmy.world•Scientists Link Popular Sugar Substitute to Liver DiseaseEnglish
52·9 days agoGive up sugar. Try it, and tell me it isn’t addictive.
Give up all sweeteners, because keeping them just makes you crave more, making it much harder.
I gave up sugar, and most fruits except berries. It made staying at my ideal weight MUCH easier. I really don’t need to think about it, I weigh myself every few weeks, and I’m always at my ideal weight. Exercise is the other part of the equation, I think we need to do both.

They have zero real friends, and no one loves them, save their young kids before the kids catch on. The one exception might be Warren Buffett, but that is not to imply that he is a good person.

















That’s North Canary Island. It’s not on many maps because it formed recently from a submerged volcano. Maybe you remember hearing about that a few years ago?
