How did you edit this?

The distribution of tonal values and the colors are very tasteful. It must have been beautiful light in the first place, but surely you had to develop this, right?

Are you talking about the major java/jre repackaging issue, that was announced (proposed update procedure included) on the archlinux news-page, that you are supposed to check before an update?

If so, then you can’t really blame the distro, if you don’t follow basic best practice guidelines.
And then you’d also be pretty late to that update and should run updates more frequently. Once a week to at least once a month is a good idea. That’s the idea of a kinda bleeding edge, rolling release distro.

I do get, why people dislike GIMP. It has a bit of a steep learning curve. And approaches things uniquely.

But for a FOSS paint equivalent: have you tried Pinta? It’s much less complicated, and the UI isn’t too bad.

I once accidentaly shorted the connector cables of a battery pack with 4 AA batteries. It very quickly generated enough heat to set the insulation of the cable on fire.

Don’t underestimate short circuits!

Lucky you!
