  • “They like to bite off more than they can chew so of course they have to spit it all over the table”

    I understand, and agree, that the root of the problem is the amount of abandoned animals but I still think that what peta does is wrong. By accepting more animals than they can care for they are robbing those animals the chance to find a shelter that can actually take them in, or someone willing to adopt them, or a temporary foster home, even a life as a stray could be better than death IMO. Euthanasia should only be used as a last resort, I dont think peta is doing enough to exhaust their options and, I reiterate, they are not allowing others to try by pretending to shelter those animals. A no rejection shelter that kills the animals they cant care for is just a regular shelter with extra (and careless) steps.

    If you are pro-pets and do not fund PETA to support all the neglected pets it feels a bit hypocritical to criticize them for euthanizing

    I can barely fund myself






  • I dont really know how to use Inkspace so my method is probably very roundaboutish but the way I used to do it was:

    1.- Use gimp to turn the image into solid colours. IIRC the option is called posterize, I would choose 5 coulours for this Image but you have to experiment whats best.
    2.-With the colour selection tool, select one colour and make a new png for only that colour shape.
    3.- Do the same for the rest of the colours.
    4.- Import one of the colour pngs into inkscape and use the vectorize function, I very rarely needed to do adjustments to it unless the shape was complicated.
    5.- Remove the imported png and adjust the colour of your new vector object if needed.
    6.- Repeat 4 and 5 for the rest of the pngs on the same inkscape document.
    7.- Align objects if needed and save to svg.

    Hope I explained it in an understandable way, if not, feel free to ask.


  • Try Nouveau, like Brickfrog said, if only to test the gpu.

    I dont know if its the same but in Mint the Synaptic Package manager shows me all the versions of the nvidia driver supported by the kernel. Maybe you can downgrade your driver with it, although, I dont know how would you do that. Im just guessing but I think you would need to switch the transitional packages and those pull all the packages related to the driver.

    Also, I’ve read a few times that distro upgrades can have weird problems and clean installs are better.







  • I know :)

    Although, both are unnessential and both enrich awful ppl so…

    Also, according to the logic on the meme you shared, its wrong to critizise ppl who buy diamonds because we should let them enjoy them.

    Also also, critizising someone for economically supporting awfull ppl by buying their shit is not stopping them from enjoying said shit. Nobody is taking away their stuff, they can ignore us. However asking ppl to stay silent in the name of someones enjoyment is an attempt to make us give away our freedom to express our opinion.

    Also, also also, What if I like critizising them? Let me enjoy it goddamn it!
