Looks nice, thanks for sharing.

I'm using Affinity v1 for some specific photo manipulation work, and the workflow is a bit convoluted.

Very tempting to make a specialized tool like this for that.

It's all nice and all, but I'm just sitting here thinking "How can one afford all this flying around"?

Spoiler alert. You're reading a rich guys humblebrag site.

Forget that, I couldn't even fly that much if I was paid to

Is finding bright flashing fullscreen images annoying, and knowing it can cause medical issues for some people a uniquely british thing?

I didn't mean to be snarky in any way, and I cannot really explain the why, but the following happened:

It can be worth it, for a better discourse, to add some context to your post from the onset. "I have no idea why, if its something about your wording or something else, but I immediately thought you were from the uk". Your post comes across as pretty snarky/condenscending.

Side note: Just like with a human employee asking for permission to do something.

Except for the accountability if they screw up; and the human brain thinking through what they are doing.

Yeah, being in fps gaming for quite when I was younger made me quite picky about my peripherals, it's astonishing for me how much crappy stuff average people tolerate.

If this were a reliable indicator, then it would no longer be one.

For me, this is entirely true.

I'm progressing with my side projects like I've never before.

Same, I would have given up on them long ago, I no longer code at all now. Why would I when the latest models can do it better, faster and without the human limitations of tiredness, emotional impacts etc.

or the other way around for less safety guardrails?

there must be a ranking of languages by "safety"

Heh, just wait till LLMs fully self train and make up their own language to avoid human safety restraints.
