May the artwork take you to a place of great beauty and majesty, one in which you feel watched over by a benevolent force of goodness, truth, and peace.
It's a rugged place, this high valley in the wilderness of Oregon. May the artwork take you to such a place -- one of wild beauty, intense silence, and timeless majesty.
#Discover does rotating high-reward categories for their cashback system, and traditionally they have had gas stations as one of the categories. It looks like this year they are replacing that with gas stations, electric vehicle charging stations, and public transit. Now I need to figure out how to set up a second payment method with my autoloading public transit card...
@NBAnthony2k My other credit card gives 2% cash back on everything, so the Discover reward is basically 3% which means spending more than I need immediately is worse than just keeping the money in my savings account with how high interest rates are right now.
May the artwork take you to a tranquil place and a quiet time, so still that you can hear the trickle of water cascading down the rocks at the Emerald Pools.

Dude. I've always used the default (on #Plasma, I think) #Okular app for my PDF needs on #Linux, and it's been fine and I'll continue to do so. But annotation isn't its best quality.
I needed to sign some documents today and was looking into any apps I could use my cheap "drawing tablet" with to annotate. You could sorta make do with Okular for that but it's "drawing" annotation isn't really designed for anything but to draw lines - so everything will be "blocky" or "jagged" rather than appear natural/free flow.
Looking up online people kept recommending #Xournal, I ignored it too many times just bcos of its very Linuxy name lmao but IT'S SO GOOD and is exactly what I (and YOU) need. You could use it to draw/write notes as you would on say, an #iPad, or even to draw/annotate on PDFs. I've just started using it at the time of writing this but I love it already and can see that it's very capable, and intuitive.
I literally just connected my drawing tablet to my #SteamDeck dock, installed the Xournal app from the #Discover app store as a #Flatpak, open up my PDF with Xournal and started writing and exported my doc as a PDF. People need to know about this app.
If anyone's curious, the drawing tablet (I keep italicising this because IDK if it's actually good enough for REAL artists lol instead of a casual user like me) I use that I find very affordable, and that is definitely way more than good enough for me is the #XPPen Star G640.
I got it 2 years ago for 103 MYR (~22 USD), but today without any discounts I see that it's come down to just 79.99 MYR (~17.27 USD). I initially got it just to play the game, #OSU, and it's been perfect for that. Since then I've doodled around with it here and there on #Krita and I honestly love it. I definitely would have loved to use it more tho to digitally annotate documents, so I'm super happy I've the perfect app to use it with now!
It works perfectly on my main #EndeavourOS (#ArchLinux based) PC, and also my #SteamDeck pretty much plug and play. The only complaint I have is that when used on a 2-monitor setup, the surface of the tablet is then shared/used for the entire length of the two monitors (so left most area of the tablet interacts with the left monitor, and right most area of the tablet interacts with the right monitor) which makes it awkward - but I'm sure that's not specific to this tablet but a #Linux thing in general I haven't figured out yet. If you're using a single monitor setup though, you're golden.
Honestly, I've never needed an #iPad but I've always wanted one to use for note taking or annotating PDFs - I never ended up buying one cos it's too expensive for my very minor need. Happy to report I'll likely never own an iPad now 🥳
Life is an adventure! May the artwork encourage you that the many twists and turns on our journey give us different perspectives on the landscape around us.
