Hey, next week (May 30th to 31th), I'll be at the Torino Comics festival in Italy, meeting the "Silly Studios" publisher on their booth (Zona Chiostro, Pagoda P10). If you are around, come to say a hello and get a signed and sketched copy of the paperback volumes of "Pepper & Carrot"!
See you in Turin!

My blog is back! I went into the logs to see the RSS code was the main culprit: huge and with 14K RSS bots hitting it over the last 10h.
So, I simplified the RSS because, meh: I was sending the full content of the article with 10MB of pictures and the code was dynamically converting the markdown to html, then html to special char, *each time* 🫠 hm hm, no wonder...
Now the website is back and up to speed, and the article received over 60K visitors, thank you!

:linux: After months of testing, weeks of writing, here is finally my new full Linux install guide: "Interim Install Guide: KDE Neon User Edition for a professional digital painter workstation": https://www.davidrevoy.com/article1145/interim-install-guide-kde-neon-user-edition-for-a-professional-digital-painter-workstation
Everything about Drawing Tablet, Color Management and Calibration/Profiling on KDE Plasma 6 Wayland, and all to survive the packaging mess with eg. built-in tutorial to revert version of Flatpak, scripts to beta-test Krita, and more!
The most complete article I ever published!

The comic I posted today is the first one that I have created from A to Z under a Wayland session (KDE Neon User Edition, Plasma 6.6.4, Krita 6.0.1), and that after 17 years under X11.
A big thanks to:
- the Wayland team for improving the color management
- KDE Display/Input team for the tablet and ICC support
- Krita team for a better experience on Wayland.
I can finally adapt my workflow to this tech! I'll post a new install guide on my blog soon™ https://www.davidrevoy.com/index.php?tag/linux

Remember my RAM issue from January? After months (warranty forms, posting back the 2x8GB modules to factory, and waiting), the brand finally honored their lifetime warranty and I received my new RAM this morning!
Back to 32GB! 🎉
A relief, because I've been running over the last few months with 16GB, and it was tight for intensive work.

Hey Emilion, I totally understand, and I would do the same 👍
Unfortunately, for the self publishing books 100% made with FLOSS, that was the only company/solution I found long time ago, before that was so problematic (the Brexit put a lot of tax on the UK print pod). I might need to look for a EU print-on-demand solution soon.
For the version of the publisher Silly Studio (Italian publisher), they just put their Italian/English version in the shop https://sillystudiosofficial.com/shop/

Interesting, indeed: for companies with AI/LLMs services based on prompt count or length of characters until a subscription, it sounds reasonable to think they can get extra motivation to make the user type more and turn around and around until they get a answer they consider valid or satisfactory.

🤣 Oh yes. And probably many things looking good at first, but totally awkward later; like the door to the toilets not opening fully because hitting the toilet seat, or a random door lower sized than all other that you have to constantly remind for bending yourself a little, or a random stair on the way to a room lower than all other. Many little poisons like that 😆

Thank you! Yes, it was on my list for long, but I wanted to really put it at a moment in the story when Cepper, the Gothic Sorceress, would really need it.
With the home destroyed on the two previous episode it was the perfect opportunity. Now, I have another good opening to jump on the theme of the 'locally installed AI', also a big item on my TODO list.

Yes, it's probably better like that, I prefer to inform anyway about it when I need to post a day earlier or like in January, a day later (had a funeral that day, wasn't in the mood to post my funny comic and spam the TL of my family with it).
It's life, and I'm not a company with a process, or software that does crossposting (I continue to post all manually), and I prefer it that way 😊, it's always a pleasure to comeback with something weekly.

Yes! Feel free to steal the idea and the graphics for it, no need attribution for that!
Just, also check the html and css code: it was painful to adapt it so 'read-out-loud' assistant for accessibility don't read it and same for Firefox 'text only' mode, but I found workarounds. You might want them too.
Also: it works, the crawler of a famous search engine took it, so it might be soon also part of dataset for training AI.

Yes, safe for many personal usage. Terry Pratchett was known for having no issues with fan-fiction and fan-art; never asking them for removal (it was a debate on the early Internet years). See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_issues_with_fan_fiction#Authors

It happened to my wife too, who wasn't familiar with the reverse mermaid meme. But it was still working a bit for her as she got "the content creator envying another one while having blind spot on the reason of her own unsuccessfulness". Anyway, this one is a bit cruel and on the physic appearance of content creator, I personally had a good laugh because it's unexpected, because I also love reverse mermaid meme, but the deep message is bitter even if it is a sad part of reality.

Yes, it's one of my OC and I have her in mind since more than a decade for a novel I wrote. I made many attempts in the past and sketches to depict her. My skill nowadays allows me to be a bit more closer to what I have in mind, but I still think something is a bit off, and not totally as I imagine her. I'll keep working on this character. One day she'll be ready for the graphic novel 😊

Coucou, oui j'ai un one shot écris qui date, 2010, https://www.davidrevoy.com/article41/electron-donor mais j'aimerai bien le mettre en image.
Alors ici et là, je m'amuse à avancer dans les concept-art. Là, je voulais une donneuse d'électron plus âgé, et avec plus de vécu.
Oui, ce serait une nouvelle assez réconfortante mais dans un univers assez dark. La formule que SpaceFox décrit bien. Un clin d’œil aussi à la petite vendeuse d’allumettes.

Hello, alors je n'ai pas d'avis car jamais testé ce modèle.

(les Wacom, XpPen et Huion pour le dessin pro on la techno EMR: ElectroMagnetic Resonance, sans batterie).
Tout dépends avec l'AES si le constructeur à bien fait le boulot: si la dalle n'a pas de 'bruit' electrostatic, si la latence est bonne, etc... J'éspère que ça ira.

Surprising to see Youtuber PewDiePie (110M subscribers) publishing a video last night , "I installed Linux (so should you)" with a call to his community to join the platform, underlining the fun of customisation and DIY, in opposition to all the enshitification of Windows. His main point of friction for moving was Photoshop, and he explained how he made the effort to adapt GIMP to his needs. Always good to see initiatives like that shared to large audience.

:linux: Note: Not a sponsored review, but I received the tablet for free. It's a model I selected myself on the Huion catalog as I wanted to review budget friendly hardware this time and on the way reports the specs to the Linux devs.

Good question and I guess you ask because you had clues; she is clearly demisexual, a topic I know well for being one myself :heart_ace:

Totalement! C'est même pour ça que dans ma métaphore, je voulais vraiment montrer que le petit renard reste un renard , tant bien même recouvert de cendre. Ca ressemble donc plutôt a une "community curated edition" de Firefox, mais je crois que c'est ce que je cherche là. Je commence à me méfier de Mozilla. Ils dérapent trop souvent ces derniers temps, et ça c'est que la partie publique...

Yes, changing web browser can be difficult. My first hours with LibreWolf was a real maze. :blob_sweat: I'm really lucky I could speak about my issue on the Pepper&Carrot matrix room and received assistance from a more experienced user.
I updated on their bug tracker the thread that I found with the information I needed, for future users in the same situation as me.

Well, I visited their webpage and read their Wikipedia. But only checking they are still active on X was a red flag to me so far to get interested in.

📽️ I filmed the making of while testing on :debian: Linux the XpPen Deco 01v3, a budget medium sized screenless tablet, I drew this one with that. The timelapse will be part of the hardware review on the channel (soon, stay tuned!).
Here are two early WIP; the sketch and a pass with better line weight:

I wanted to take a moment with this artwork to express my gratitude to everyone who commented and showed support after I reposted last week the email asking me to erase the relation between these two characters from my comic for homophobic reasons ( https://framapiaf.org/@davidrevoy/114024633213361982 ).
I was overwhelmed by your amount of responses, but in a good way.
Thanks for all this support against hate and intolerance. This only strengthens my motivation to continue in this way with more artworks like that. 💜

Been writing and storyboarding all week and it feels amazing to see these characters come to life again. It will take time to complete the next episode, it's an ambitious one, but I'm definitely on it.

Unfortunately, it's not. A human (artist decision) has to be done.
For example, you can obtain a Black by overlaying Cyan+Magenta+Yellow. But they don't overlap perfectly because you print in pass.
So the industry came up with a Black ink cartridge, this one is economic too (better than three pass of CMY). But you can also do "rich black" by mixing Black ink and Cyan at 60% and manage this way many 'mix'.
Color on screen doesn't work the same way.

Think of CMYK like a special language for printers. Artists need it to ensure their designs look great on paper, not just on screens. And it's not just about art - CMYK is used in millions of printed objects we use daily, from packaging to billboards. It's a crucial part of our visual world!

(And sorry for the delay: I'm trying to manage a life going more and more complex in my sort of mid-life crisis. Hopefully, I took good decision and the refactoring I'm about to release publicly soon will set a new sane base for producing new episodes more often in 2025. )

Et quelles indices irai dans ce sens?
En tout cas, la signature est difficile à déchiffrer
A.Auillorousiu ?
A.Anillorousies
A.Anilloronsies
... et aussi celui ou celle qui offre la gravure n'est pas forcement l'artiste, juste celui ou celle qui l'offre.
Ce qui est sure, c'est que dans l'état des moteurs de recherches à base d'IA et d’algorithme de suggestions, c'est difficile de chercher la dessus (où tout autre domaine, d'ailleurs).

Pas d'info précise, juste un détail que tu sais peut-être: le rendu suggère une xylogravure (gravure sur bois). A voir donc avec un ou une collectionneuse de xylogravure qui saura peut-être dire a qui appartenait cette signature cryptique mais parisienne d'après guerre.

Merci! La license n'est pas dans le livre par contre; je n'étais pas là pour des retours à la mise en page...
Au final, il y a un © REVOY et la même chose pour tous les autres auteur⋅ices.
Mais j'ai bien tous les emails de notre accord, plus la facture qui le mentionne pour me protéger juridiquement. Au cas où.
En tout cas, le directeur de cette collection et l'équipe étaient super sympa.
