Adobe Tells Users They Can Get Sued for Using Old Versions of Photoshop

"You are no longer licensed to use the software," Adobe told them.

Being called out again by tumblr

When you get jumpscared by your childhood edgelord ocs 😂

They're either sources or cringe or meme material. I'm picking meme material haha

Yeah, I’ve seen it.

It's my 9 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

and I've done nothing note worthy here ever.

Is that why my feed is full of ads that pop up or push down the post I want to see

Like show me an ad but don't make things bounce around so I'm clicking on random posts then having to back track to where I was.

And why are they all Versace and Louis Vuitton ads???!

somehow knowing that tumblr is being kept around mostly as a testing ground for advertisers and corporations doesn’t even make me feel that exploited, because every social media site is exploitive. but being basically lab rats to test shit on before it’s refined for use in polite society is by far the funniest possible way to be exploited.

What's not so funny is that I read about some of this years ago and talked about it at length with many of the people around me, yet still forgot about how scummy data mining can be with this stuff.

Glad no one in my family believes in trying any of this stuff because of our weird records.

Ancestry.com takes DNA ownership rights from customers and their relatives

Don’t use the AncestryDNA testing service without actually reading the Ancestry.com

I will take every opportunity to warn people against these genetics testing “services.” They are huge data mines and prospecting firms, and if you are Indigenous, your submission may be their way around tribal moratoriums against these sorts of collections.

Plus, they don’t mean anything as far as Indigenous identity.

Firefox Rolls Out Total Cookie Protection By Default | The Mozilla Blog

Take back your privacy Firefox is rolling out Total Cookie Protection by default to more Firefox users worldwide, making Firefox the most pr

Total Cookie Protection works by creating a separate “cookie jar” for each website you visit. Instead of allowing trackers to link up your behavior on multiple sites, they just get to see behavior on individual sites. Any time a website, or third-party content embedded in a website, deposits a cookie in your browser, that cookie is confined to the cookie jar assigned to only that website. No other websites can reach into the cookie jars that don’t belong to them and find out what the other websites’ cookies know about you — giving you freedom from invasive ads and reducing the amount of information companies gather about you.

This approach strikes the balance between eliminating the worst privacy properties of third-party cookies – in particular the ability to track you – and allowing those cookies to fulfill their less invasive use cases (e.g. to provide accurate analytics). With Total Cookie Protection in Firefox, people can enjoy better privacy and have the great browsing experience they’ve come to expect.

anyway switch to Firefox

You know, every so often I think I should update my pirated copy of CS2.

Then I see things like this, and remember that I don't need it more than I need it, you know?

I need an answer

How to put “wrote fan-fiction” on your résumé:

Leveraged an inventory of established fictional character and setting elements to generate a disruptive custom-curated narrative entertainment asset.

I would love to do this one summer

i hate that every time i look for color studies and tips to improve my art and make it more dynamic and interesting all that comes up are rudimentary explanations of the color wheel that explain it to me like im in 1st grade and just now discovering my primary colors

why do you get such great ideas in the shower after being under the water for awhile?

So the week 4 prompt for Inktober 52 is Angel and boy did I go through alot of ideas before settling on one.

Big hint, I just mashed all the obvious ideas into the page :)

why do I still have a Facebook account, I'm never on it and all I see are ads and not life updates from people I know

was just taking a quick look around my dashboard and account settings when the delete account popped up and boy oh boy did it look tempting.

(my thumb almost moved on its own to press it)

Welp

I think I gave a coworker physic damage yesterday when I mentioned how mass amounts of caterpillars can turn a road into a crunchy, slimy slip n' slide.

(I'm not sorry, even when she started gagging)

Just a one layer test run I want to try in Photoshop, done in 30 minutes from photo reference.

Maybe I'll finish it at some point but for now, this.  

Cute creepy things for you guys.

I love this for all its colour and texture.

Monastery

Every friend I asked about this game said "HELL NO!" about playing it save one.

I don't care what happens we will play this, if I have to buy it or corner someone at a game cafe.

THIS. WILL. HAPPEN.

Getting the Juices Flowing

I just wanted to do some preliminary sketches done of what I wanted to do before making sculpey models of them.

If successful, I will post. Hopefully this is the start of a cool series.

My God There's Blood Everywere

I really hope all this pain from having my wisdom teeth pulled leads to some awesome artwork for here. Personal pain always inspires me :/

Finally Here

Time will be spent setting things up to my preferences, but slow progress is expected.

Suggestions or help appreciated.
