In high-stress environments—from elite athletics to survival situations—"hope" is sometimes treated with caution. Reliance on a rescue that doesn't come or a victory that remains out of reach can lead to a "hope-drain" that saps energy. Instead, professionals often advocate for "stoic realism": focusing on the next immediate step. When the grand hope is stripped away, what remains is the raw discipline of action. Beyond the Void When the grand hope is stripped away, what
Isolation is the fuel that keeps hopelessness burning. Reaching out can feel like an impossible task when you have "no hope," but it is the most vital step.
The string you provided, , is a Base64 encoded message that decodes to: "there is no hope" .
, Camus argues that humanity has an innate drive to find meaning in a universe that offers none. He posits that "there is no hope" is not a death sentence, but a prerequisite for freedom. By abandoning the hope for a "higher" meaning, individuals can live authentically in the present. Jean-Paul Sartre

None of the “alternatives” that you mention are really alternatives to Photoshop for photo processing.
Instead you should look at programs such as Darktable (https://www.darktable.org/) or Digikam (https://www.digikam.org/).
No, those are not alternatives, not if you’re trying to do any kind of game dev or game art. And if you’re not doing game dev or game art, why are you talking about Linux and Photoshop at all?

Can’t do DDS files with the BC7 compression algorithm that is now the universal standard. Just pukes up “unsupported format” errors when you try to open such a file and occasionally hard-crashes KDE too. This has been a known problem for years now. The devs say they may look at it eventually.
>Krita
Likewise can’t do anything with DDS BC7 files other than puke up error messages when you try to open them and maybe crash to desktop. Devs are silent on the matter. User support forums have goofy suggestions like “well just install Windows and use this Windows-only Python program that converts DDS into TGA to open them for editing! What, you’re using Linux right now? You need to export these files as DDS BC7? I dno lol” Yes, yes, yes. That’s very helpful. I’m suitably impressed.
>Pinta
Can’t do DDS at all, can’t do PSD at all. Who is the audience for this? Who is the intended end user? Why bother with implementing layers at all if you aren’t going to put in support for PSD and the current DDS standard? At the current developmental stage, there is no point, unless it was just supposed to be a proof of concept.
“…plenty of free and open-source tools that are very similar to Photoshop.”
NO! Definitely not. If there were, I would be using them. I have been a fine art photographer for more than 40 years and most definitely DO NOT use Photoshop because I love Adobe. I use it because nothing else can do the job. Please stop suggesting crippled and completely inadequate FOSS imposters that do not work. I love Linux and have three Linux machines for every one Mac (30+ year user), but some software packages have no substitute.
