Data is already plural, so the form datas does not exist. It even has the rarely used singular datum as it is just Latin for "given", but using data instead is generally also regarded correct.

Datas is more fun to read.

But the keyboard has no Ban key

Boten Anna's does

I agree, although some very unsympathetic part of me internally screams every time I read that.

[–] ISOmorph@feddit.org 9 points 1 year ago

OP is obviously Dr. Noonien Soong

[–] pbjamm@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Technically correct, which is the best kind.

[–] Umbrias@beehaw.org -3 points 11 months ago

Datas is correct if you are referring to multiple distinct populations of data. Which in this case works.

If pirating a product that is for sale is "theft"

Is pirating a product that is for rental (like adobe).... Squatting?

(Joke obvs)

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 7 points 11 months ago

I wonder if that means we can claim adverse possession

[–] HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Even when you pirate their stuff you are giving them things; market share, data, seo pumps, bug reports, data.

You could try putting firewall rules and block it from ever connecting to the internet.

[–] HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 11 months ago

You're still giving them market share and training yourself in their software. When you need to search up online how to do a gradient, you give views to tutorials for their products.

Use GIMP and skip the bullshit.

[–] Midnight1938@reddthat.com 15 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Not as intuitive for someone who was taught photoshop at an early age

[–] first_ad4972@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I find krita quite easy to use

[–] Midnight1938@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago

Okay ill try kitra

[–] polle@feddit.org 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I stared with Photoshop cs2, now iam using just krita for years.

[–] pbjamm@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

Krita is amazing

[–] IanM32@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

Krita is A+.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

Always found gimp far easier than Photoshop

[–] yuri@pawb.social 1 points 11 months ago

photogimp exists and is fantastic

[–] sillyhatsonly@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

GIMP is fine but who can find me replacements for After Effects and Premiere Pro? I need software for video editing/motion graphics and these are the two apps keeping me shackled to Adobe for now…

[–] p03locke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 11 months ago

How about Da Vinci Resolve?

[–] zaknenou@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 11 months ago

you two surely have nice chemistry
