I just heard from @sascharode1986, the developer of SDF Modeler, that he'll be working on a macOS version. 🥳

SDF Modeler is already available for free for Windows and #Linux.

As far as I'm concerned, SDF Modeler is one of the best SDF 3D tools around at the moment, featuring advanced options like nested shapes and a path-tracing renderer.

The #Atari 1200XL was a 8bit #homecomputer running a #MOS 6502 #CPU at 1.79 MHz. When this beautiful machine was launched in 1983 with 64Kb RAM the price was under thousand dollars, but... https://youtu.be/JyA5tA5mmYY

$omehow, in the #8bitwar the #C64 was much more popular even when specs been almost the same. The difference in #BASIC language was less significant for the success. Most likely that competition was won by #Commodore because Jack Tramiel took the advice of his grandfather so serious.

"I thought about doing a post of pictures of the 1400 rallies around the country and 7 countries abroad that Indivisible knew about, but there were just too many.

It was amazing that on Thursday there were an estimated 600 rallies and it went to 1400 in a day. The real count could be even more. Indivisible estimated 500,000 people, that could be more, too. There was a huge crowd at the National Mall at Washington D.C.

So, I went through the collection just for the best graphics and costumes.)

I've built GIMP-3 from source. It's nice. My #Linux distro will keep GIMP-2 and feature GIMP-3 as well. I'll comment that, for me, two features are missing from GIMP-3:

SVG support requires Rust now. Rust is a huge dependency to need to add just to get SVG. Additionally, Rust isn't available for some distros and/or architectures. So, for me, GIMP-3 will need to omit SVG. I think that some other distros will make the same decision.

The Create Logo command is gone as well.

Comment to @GIMP : It shouldn't be difficult for "file-svg.c" to support the 'C' version of librsvg. In fact, the code is already there in an "#else" block. It looks like relatively minor changes are needed. However, I haven't been able to make it work yet.

On the other hand, Resynthesizer and #GMIC both build and work. The base GIMP-3 filters plus those two add-ons are most of what I need.

Note to distro admins: To build Resynthesizer for GIMP-3 from source, you presently need to use the "resynthesizer3" git branch.

@gmic may be pleased to hear that GIMP 3.0.2 and GMIC 3.5.3 are confirmed to be simpatico. See the attached screenshot.

Note: The distro and desktop used here are my own 30-year-old project, Laclin. I'm as fond of it as the GIMP and GMIC teams are of their projects.
