> The more basic "Why has there been a rise in obesity?" keeps being asked, and that's already answered. to my knowledge, it has not. Researchers are still trying to understand why.

your comment is spot on. an acquisition is also the perfect time to have someone trigger an investigation by the local privacy authority for breach of GDPR and I can tell with reasonable certainty that the wording on that ToS is enough to g

innovation in raw developing software is always very welcome. my main gripe with basically all of them is that the controls to manipulate colors are very tricky to use for the precise work that color grading requires. "Curves" is
