You need to check the obligatory Canva account settings re AI but there's no AI in Affinity without a Canva Pro account. The last update to V2 had a couple of AI trained tools but they were a separate optional download (a tack I quite liked as I didn't want them).

A poster's assumption that the Mods and every reader on the site will understand their reference (or their personal importance) and therefore how what they have written is OK, despite a plain text rule break is very hard to get past.

Looks absolutely gorgeous!

"Watch fewer videos about the corner sharpness of lenses you'll never buy and more time just actually using your camera."

For me it's landscape, but the shots are rarely more than "go somewhere that looks nice when the weather is interesting". Finding that combo is 98% of the work.

I hate this. It's like when a latest novel by an author comes out and they decide to refresh all the old ones with new matching covers rather than continue the previous design language. Or change the size.

'Was' for. Sigh, cry etc.

They were so good and such a sad loss too soon. But a great story to remember them by. In my hazy memory, but seemingly just a mental cataloguing error, I thought he'd died around the same time as Jimmy Fernandez of God Machine.

I'd love an interviewer to suggest this on TV, in perhaps a Chotiner 'here's just enough rope' kind of way.

I'm so glad she stopped doing anything after her first three albums.

And Genesis will always be amazing.

The lack of vision is almost worse to me than the Reform voter chasing policies. I don't understand how anyone is supposed to get enthused by a party that just wants to be slightly better than the absolute worst on the ballot.

Reminded that we got 'The Madness of King George' because people don't like sequels, especially if they haven't seen the earlier films.

It does all need rethinking. Additional pain point for me is I live two stations outside zone 6 but Oyster works on the bus. Which is very frustrating and a waste of time if you want to use a season ticket. Was crappy for my parents too as we're about three streets from a Freedom pass.

I had the same specs which didn't help.
