Dear nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpq7cuf4umda7yx773gsx2g3zy8xy2cee6u25k2na40hezwd4vrytls3sjmvf ,

I read your article about your initiative for new licenses for dataset holders in the AI industry.

Letโ€™s be clear: I do not want to re-license my hundreds of CC-By comic pages to please AI giants.

I wish you would support CC artists suffering from massive plagiarism. You should enforce your own existing licenses against AI mass crawling. It seems youโ€™ve joined the battle only after the casualties and still managed to side with the wrong people.

It's too hot to work...

I'm sharing my new 2025-01 Krita brush bundle under CC-0/Public Domain, I hope you'll like them!

I did a four-page short comic for Le Lombard (Belgian publisher), it was a contribution to a big book project in French, featuring 24 other comic artists; an "advent calendar" book for Christmas. And yes, you have to cut the page every day in December to reveal a new story. I negotiated to have mine published on CC-By and made it using only FLOSS :linux: :krita: :inkscape: .

nostr:npub18mft426uwj82ezzzmh36z2t5exl8fwc8fj7x0pcwkj9wq2het6zqzqurv2 Yes, I saw this one, good one! ๐Ÿ˜†

(I always try to search other webcomic strips within the theme my scenario is, so I can avoid to accidentally reinvent the wheel...)

nostr:npub1yjqxlnjrstus79zw7udmhrz3ga50rhlvegxmu4duweq30qlralksuuj3ym You are not alone. Same feeling!

(and worst: on social media, with the link/URL previews, when it catches an AI art for the thumbnail of a blog post and print it on my timeline.)

nostr:npub1se4w5c3dg58ynt5cnwlzpv6c0puh8xdan0x03tzw7z23lfewvyjqedyv7z ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜† me!

Perfect depiction of her feeling on this one. Very alive!

nostr:npub15cduqertz3tg25dgp48rkvq9qwsvlv0324g82kedy5dmu77q345ssx3mv2 i'm using 32x32 and as a bonus there is an optimization to save memory where if all pixels of a tile are same color it is stored as one pixel (red tiles from visualization)

The big wave of spams is over? Thank you FediAdmins for doing what you do!

XP-Pen sent me their new Artist Pro 16 (Gen2): they were curious if I could get it to work under Gnu/Linux without their proprietary driver.

Result: after a long evening of trial and error, tweaking Digimend/X11/xsetwacom, almost everything works now. ๐ŸŽ‰

Of course, the deal is that if it works, I have to document it like I did with the Artist 24 Pro. So expect it soonโ„ข.

Btw, this one will stay on my desk: I had a serious crush on it while testing: super low latency & low parallax. ๐Ÿ˜

My first attempt at recording when I'm sketching with a ballpoint pen. I couldn't say that I was relaxed enough when I started recording, as I had problems with video, focus, camera shake, light, saving the recording, resolution, etc. But it was a first test and I'm sharing it for curiosity. Goal: To record a drawing class and post it on my main channel.
