tried mostly doing block colours instead of anything with shading. Going over the edges at the end with a wider black pen definitely works.

Moved the colour/tool picker which solved the random tool changes, still getting issues with it randomly undoing when I press the screen though? REALLY annoying when it removes the layer you just created.....

Sounds like there was a FIA software defect, they have given everyone new software and original start order!

Originally meant to do it in a snow globe, but couldn't get perspective or glass right. Did this to try and show it as being smaller than a pencil, but I don't think it worked....

my first real go at trying digital art, I have a pen for my laptop but never really used it. not sure I entirely like it, palm rejection was awful and it kept changing implements because I think my palm was touching the selection area, might need to rejig things. (Krita)

I think going over the lines again with a stronger, thicker brush might help give it more structure and hide the shading gaps?

I'm going to need to do a tutorial if I keep this up.....

It's because they pained the car green, the speed of the green cars got spread out a little. That's why the astons made it to q2 and the mercs are so slow.

I presume that if they have an office there then can pressure them/sue them. Difficult at that level I suspect. I'm surprised they have the power to make a law like that devolved to them, in the UK it's pretty strict what local governments are allowed to legislate.

I don't do art... this came out better than expected. I don't have a functional rubber though, so couldn't get rid of the pencil where the bite mark is.

Frame controllers track REALLY WELL in c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

Beatsaber should be fine because the hands should always be in sight of the head unit. My understanding is that moving them behind your back would be when issues occur, which wouldn't happen with a beacon based tracking solution.

Discord's PC system resource-hogging days are numbered-- a new 'Game Mode' is coming to reduce CPU and GPU usage while gaming in c/technology@lemmy.world

It's no where near as well integrated though is it? Unless they have completely revamped the client.

Isn't the 1-1 and group call stuff a different tech stack or something? I tried one of the clients and calls worked, but group calls didn't.

May have improved now.

Can I mod a community from another instance, or is that still broken?

What do you do to keep yourself entertained during those long indoor training sessions? in c/triathlon@lemmy.world

I think I commented in the cross post, but will put here too:

I use rouvy (recently acquired by zwift ☹️) for a lot of my winter riding, having real video for all of the routes is way nicer. There are lots of group rides/races you can join if that's your thing. My cycling club even runs a club winter league on there!
