I thought this article was complaining about something that no-one used, but here you are recommending alternatives… alternatives that are not curl

The administrative overhead and the overhead of engineering everything to with multiple vendors is what is massive

Dividing between providers is not what people would be doing if the resilience of cloud services were as is being memed about.

Doing so is phenomenally expensive.

I don’t believe it’s easier than rsync.

Was there a known issue there?

Are you really going to get defensively patronising over this? I think I’mma bounce, lol.

Yeah you might be right.

I should clarify I use GIMP. A lot! But this is one way it sucks. By this point I don’t know what other similar programs even have over it - it finally got adjustment layers after some decades. So if I can recognise this shortcoming anyone should be able to ;)

The other major thing was switching to single window mode. Floating windows for everything was absolutely batshit.

The first two sets of instructions are for drawing a disc, rather than a circle (a disc being a filled-in circle) and don’t extend to drawing a circle easily. The last method does, but it is about 10x as long. The traditional method for drawing a circle was to select the inner circle, save the selection to a channel, grow the selection by the pixel width of the stroke you want, subtract the saved selection, then fill. Wonderful /s

GIMP does not (unless I missed it in a ~recent update) have a shape tool like most image editors. The GIMP documentation in any case suggests using Inkscape for the purpose.
