I needed to crop a couple of images a few days ago and completely forgot about graphical editors. I spent like 10 minutes repeatedly using imagemagick with slightly tweaked parameters until I liked the crop
I needed to do the same, but for 6500 images. Worked out great.
I assume bash scripts using
jpegtopnm | pnmtopngare also in the neutral good category (from Netpbm).Where does “just change the extension to .png” fit in this chart?
Pure evil
F2 -> backspace backspace backspace -> “png” -> enter

oh, thanks. it said it had an error the first time. Guess it lied lol
one was in jpeg and one in png
it’s pronounced fee enn gee
Mint has an “Action” for that:
They keep implementing things I did years ago.
you say that like its a bad thing?
Damn, that’s really handy. I would kill for Dolphin to have this.
LMDE is <3
I’ve considered using it when I want something stable, but I also just like Debian by itself.
I’m currently rocking Fedora, but I like fast updates on desktop.
actually lawful good, imagemagick and ffmpeg barely do anything different in this case, and the python script uses imagemagick if I know PIL right
the “shitty website” box is also likely just ImageMagick too
Where on the chart does studying spec sheets and writting rasterization algorithms in c fall?
I would probably put that as being similar to the “Chaotic Good” with ffmpeg.
Decode the image with ffmpeg, pipe it to imagemagick and encode it again
For one or two images, I am true neutral. If it is a whole set, anything but lawful good would be stupid or Windows user level.
If on Windows, there’s Irfanview and its batch processing.
Or, you know, ImageMagick…
I’m the ffmpeg guy. It’s the pandoc of binary media, except it actually does do everything.
Hmmm. I need to write an RP for converting mardown to jpeg.
Now I’m curious if the chatgpt way works
With how reliable and useless AI is, it would probably just rename the file with .png on the end.
What’s always missing is nomacs - the best image viewing and light editing toolkit app on linux.
Nobody ever mentions it. Why is that? Why? It supports all the formats. It has the best slideshow options. The UI is as minimal or as informative as you set it to be. WHYYYYYY DOES NOBODY TALK ABOUT IT??? Who paid you to be silenced?
(and yes, it can convert the formats)

This sounds pretty sweet and it’s indeed the first time I’ve ever heard about it so… keep spreading that word brother???
For some reason it’s not included in Debian Bookworm (currently stable) and Bullseye. It previously was in Buster and will hopefully again be in Trixie (currently trsting).
There is a flatpak at least
Thanks.
I’m absolutely in the market for a new image viewer. One with a sensible gallery / (sub-) folder view.
I’ll try nomacs out today.
It reminds me of IrfanView, but I’m sure it’s better than that
I used it for a long time years ago and it is indeed very great. But its only maintainer stopped around 2021/2022 because he got a new job or something along that line. As far i see he partially returned later but is still looking for more contributors. so the future of the project is not really secure. e.g. see https://github.com/nomacs/nomacs/issues/987
So more eyes on Nomacs would be indeed good.
Doesn’t really seem like the sort of thing that needs regular updates though. Should keep working fine while Qt6 is available.
It’s so crazy to me that guy was unemployed and is spending his days making a high quality software product for free
TBH, that’s his résumé
what about reacreating the image puxel by pixel from scratch?
Neutral eldritch
I was expecting to see a hex-editor or something as one of the options.
You’d first have to destroy the universe. So probably evil.
Found the embedded systems engineer!
Tell the Rabbit AI landwaste thingy to describe the image, then feed the result into Midjourney.
I’m using Xnview’s shell extension to convert images to PNGs, what am I?
chaotic neutral and proud of it
