schestowitzBefore the article disappeared, one of our collaborators took the precaution of making a PDF copy which we attach.Jan 18 00:30
schestowitzWe can't say whether or not there might be legal issues if you were to post this on your website as we presume that Peratovic has the copyright on the original article.Jan 18 00:30
schestowitzSo presumably he could ask you to remove it.Jan 18 00:30
schestowitzHowever, we suggest a possible "work-around" below so keep reading ...Jan 18 00:30
schestowitzAn interesting detail here is that a Croatian version of the Peratovic article is still freely available online. Only the original English version of the article which he published on his 45lines.com blog site has disappeared.Jan 18 00:30
schestowitz(It seems that what Topic is really worried about is any kind of journalistic coverage that is accessible to an audience outside Croatia.)Jan 18 00:30
schestowitzWe have generated a second PDF using the text of Peratovic's article but "wrapping" it as a translation of the Croatian article on Metro Portal.Jan 18 00:30
schestowitzOne "workaround" to the potential copyright issue referred to above would be to give a link to the Croatian article which is still available online and post the "Metro Portal" PDF as a "translation".Jan 18 00:30
schestowitzAnyway, it's your call as to what you want to do, and the attached PDFs are yours to use at your discretion.Jan 18 00:30

schestowitz"I'm a mac user looking to slowly transition to some flavour of Linux- which would you recommend? Is there a flavour of Linux that offers some of the interoperability that you get with iOs 7 and OS X? I also have no idea what would be an easy laptop to instal Linux on."Jan 20 18:39

schestowitzGary, do you mean interoperability between mobile Linux-based devices and a GNU/Linux desktop?Jan 20 18:40
schestowitzI have a Firefox phone (Linux-based) and it has no problem mounting on Trisquel or Ubuntu (flavors I use). I haven't had much difficulty with Android mobile devices on Trisquel either. Android uses the kernel Linux.Jan 20 18:40
schestowitzOr are you asking for a GNU/Linux desktop distro that handles iOS mobile devices when you plug them in? I don't know about that since I don't use any iOS devices but maybe some interoperability will be had, but I'd expect limitations. There may be workarounds.Jan 20 18:40

schestowitzHi JaoquinJan 21 22:27
schestowitzThe site received many automated reg requests per day, maybe hundreds if not thousands. Those that don't get blocked go through Mollom (spam filter) and in addition there is ban2fail which completely bans IPs that are used for malicious purposes. The ban expires after 100 minutes.Jan 21 22:27
schestowitzBased on the above, either the IP or the E-mail probably got flagged by Mollom. Since it's managed by the company behind Drupal, there is no way for us to changed their karma for the IP/username/E-mail. Is there another address you can use? Alternatively, if you give me your username and password (suggested ones), I will create an account for you manually. :-)Jan 21 22:27

schestowitzInkscape's upcoming .91 release is going to be light-year leaps in terms of new features and fixes. As for the GIMP, the Arch wiki has a great page on four color .

schestowitzI'm not a professional designer, but I know loads of them that live in PDX that work for a wide array of companies. Some of them use FLOSS tools everyday, but I agree most of them are more interested in doing things as fast as possible which means using the tools they were trained to use early, the result being they are locked-in to Adobe or Autodesk more than likely.Jan 22 18:18

schestowitz"I don’t think the movie American Sniper will ultimately settle into place in the classic war movie genre.  Rather, it will be regarded like another Eastwood movie called “Unforgiven” – a western many believe was Eastwood’s apologia for his Dirty Harry days.  Whether Clint intended this all along is an interesting question."Jan 24 22:36

schestowitzBefore the article disappeared, one of our collaborators took the precaution of making a PDF copy which we attach.Jan 18 00:33
schestowitzWe can't say whether or not there might be legal issues if you were to post this on your website as we presume that Peratovic has the copyright on the original article.Jan 18 00:33
schestowitzSo presumably he could ask you to remove it.Jan 18 00:34
schestowitzHowever, we suggest a possible "work-around" below so keep reading ...Jan 18 00:34
schestowitzAn interesting detail here is that a Croatian version of the Peratovic article is still freely available online. Only the original English version of the article which he published on his 45lines.com blog site has disappeared.Jan 18 00:34
schestowitz(It seems that what Topic is really worried about is any kind of journalistic coverage that is accessible to an audience outside Croatia.)Jan 18 00:34
schestowitzWe have generated a second PDF using the text of Peratovic's article but "wrapping" it as a translation of the Croatian article on Metro Portal.Jan 18 00:34
schestowitzOne "workaround" to the potential copyright issue referred to above would be to give a link to the Croatian article which is still available online and post the "Metro Portal" PDF as a "translation".Jan 18 00:34

schestowitzHi JaoquinJan 21 22:30
schestowitzThe site received many automated reg requests per day, maybe hundreds if not thousands. Those that don't get blocked go through Mollom (spam filter) and in addition there is ban2fail which completely bans IPs that are used for malicious purposes. The ban expires after 100 minutes.Jan 21 22:30
schestowitzBased on the above, either the IP or the E-mail probably got flagged by Mollom. Since it's managed by the company behind Drupal, there is no way for us to changed their karma for the IP/username/E-mail. Is there another address you can use? Alternatively, if you give me your username and password (suggested ones), I will create an account for you manually. :-)Jan 21 22:30

schestowitzI only work in GIMP, Inkscape and MyPaint, as a matter of principle.

schestowitzKrita I am still struggling to get on top of, but the fault is mine, I guess. I lack motivation: GIMP in conjunction with Inkscape gives me so much of what I want that trying to learn how to emulate the same thing in Krita is often just too much of a schlep.Jan 22 12:23

schestowitz"there are still some functionality gaps but work flow and UI are also very big issues (looking at gimp in particular). and while scribus is looking promising, it doesn't come close to indesign yet. inkscape is good and i like it more than illustrator but, it's not as smooth especially on complex drawings. so for web work FOSS is up to it but for print it's just not good enough. yes you can make it work but it takes a lot of work Jan 22 15:18

schestowitzInkscape's upcoming .91 release is going to be light-year leaps in terms of new features and fixes. As for the GIMP, the Arch wiki has a great page on four color .

schestowitzI'm not a professional designer, but I know loads of them that live in PDX that work for a wide array of companies. Some of them use FLOSS tools everyday, but I agree most of them are more interested in doing things as fast as possible which means using the tools they were trained to use early, the result being they are locked-in to Adobe or Autodesk more than likely.Jan 22 18:21

-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-@qu1j0t3: @schestowitz I see no reason to believe the 4% figure either. The real figure is likely much closer to 0%, & the real goal is to terrorise.Jan 24 20:06

schestowitz"I don’t think the movie American Sniper will ultimately settle into place in the classic war movie genre.  Rather, it will be regarded like another Eastwood movie called “Unforgiven” – a western many believe was Eastwood’s apologia for his Dirty Harry days.  Whether Clint intended this all along is an interesting question."Jan 24 22:40
