Krita's v4.2+ RGBA brushtips let you paint with dimensionality, and it's a technology that Photoshop doesn't have (≖‿ゝ≖) It lets the creator do things like emulating light direction, making brushstrokes look 3D.

Yes, I am learning Github so I probably made repository mistakes - apologies in advance lol)

Hello HN, these Mini Trees have a custom circuit board with WS2812 addressable LEDs on one side and a controller using an RP2040 microcontroller on the other, all inside a CNC'd Foamex PVC case. They stand around 23cm (9") tall. The firmware is written in MicroPython, which can be modified or replaced. Power is provided via USB-C, which is also used for programming. There is also a web-based animation sequencer to create lighting sequences in time to arbitrary audio, examples of which are on the linked page.

Hey HN! My friends and I built a new platform for generating images. The app is easy to use for people who find ComfyUI hard to use, or just simply don’t have a GPU to use it on.
