Krita does a decent job but for my workflows I definitely want the Photoshop plugin.
I would imagine MacOS has a harder time with generative fill, you'd be using Adobe's and not Stable Diffusion (which I'm pretty sure if what these non-Adobe plugins all run from).
I mean, if there's a way to get a stable diffusion server running for you and then you... no I had to look it up, I think this looks like your best bet and even then... I'm not sure
I need a VPN with port forwarding because I want to host game servers behind a CG/NAT. So there's at least one reason why they should still be featured.
~~I'm currently having a dumb issue if you'd happen to have some insight. I have windscribe. I'm using linux (debian). I installed the Windscribe package from the site and I have the same GUI I'm used to from Windows.~~
~~When I connect to my static IP, my ethernet IP doesn't change.~~
~~How do I ensure that I'm on my static IP in Linux so that I can actually use port-forwarding? Because at the moment I cannot turn on my VPN and have Plex, Overseer, any containers accessible outside my network. I can only see them on localhost. Eventually I'd like to get a domain redirect, but that's a separate issue that will be easier once I have a solid answer on getting my VPN always on and split tunneling in it set up properly.~~
~~I'm losing my shit here cause I can't find anything about this dumb problem online and it's such a simple thing that I'm used to just working lol.~~
Leaving that for posterity. I reread your comment. Their Linux app so looks to be parity equivalent with Windows, I believe both use your account online to set up port forwarding. However CLI Windscribe I believe is missing the option. But in any case, what you said my be related to the issue I'm having.
Anyway, fully +1 on Windscribe. I've been using them for years and they've always been quite to respond, transparent with what they've been served, and were active online on forums. Used a +50 code for quite some time and finally wanted unlimited and port-forwarding so I bought a sub and a static IP. Seems well priced as well, I'm paying about $25/year I think.
That's what's messed up about data, is technically the answer to your question is neither! What happens to your ownership of those downloads when your hard drive with no backup does? In that sense, a license tied to should be the safest method, but it's far from it thanks to our current practices.
But I agree with you of course, our control of our files on our hard drives indicate that we have more ownership over them.
Personally, the one thing the U.S. somewhat has right so far is we are somewhat legally allowed to format shift (within reason, stupidly but alas). Currently I can purchase any Nintendo game, decide I do not want to play it on any Nintendo console and it's within my rights to do everything short of redistribution to play that software on my PC.
Someone the other day asked if it's "pirating" to acquire a licensed title they purchased on Vudu. In my opinion, no because it's just format shifting - now, the T.O.S. may say otherwise but T.O.S. also isn't law so then it's a different issue. Vudu can say that you are only allowed to play your purchases through their website that harvests your data, which you signed when you created your account.
Still, fuck that noise. If I am purchasing something that means I expect to be able to use it no matter the surrounding circumstances. That means if my Internet is offline I can still view my content. That means if Vudu kicks the bucket I am unaffected.
Until services start giving me this option, I will continue to format shift my content. I store things for posterity and then watch on the service to support them. I want more super hero stories, so I will watch on HBO and D+. I want more IASIP, so I will watch on Hulu. But you damn better be sure I have them backed up for myself because I'm not paying $x/month to watch these forever.
Whether or not its within my rights to format shift this way I don't really care, I am only format shifting because history has shown we cannot trust media to stay online and unedited.
Example: currently made bluray/DVDs of IASIP also remove episodes. Not for me.
I did do that but then my global connection to Plex stopped working entirely and localhost stopped working as well. Granted, I hadn't set it up to the VPN's IP yet!
I'll keep this in mind for the next run, thank you so much!
