want to combine some of the dots with others erase the rest

If you just skimmed over this story I think it's worth reading and considering the implications.

   

Here's what happened:
'While being tested internally in an enclosed sandbox, the model gained internet access – effectively an escape route – by locating a vulnerability that had not been discovered before.
The agent then hacked Hugging Face, which is a database of AI models, to locate technology that would help it pass the hacking evaluation'.

When I read this I asked myself 'how predictable was this escape and why were they testing it's hacking abilities at all'? Is this just the beginning of 'rogue AI' because it could get very expensive to repair the damage it can potentially do.

I read the story here.

Hi!

Question about Python-Fu Gimp 3.2.4

How do I get the active image (the one with focus) from all open images?

Hi!

Gimp 3.2.4

I added mask to layer. When I use any transform tools (move, rotate, scale etc) with mask selected icon everything works well, all affected to mask. But when I select layer icon all action affected on mask as well, even "Edit layer mask" unchecked

Hello,
I am trying to get arrows on GIMP 3.2.4 running under Ubuntu 22.04.

I have tried two modules:
* The script arrow_v3.scm (https://blog.weetech.ch/2025/10/how-to-d...lugin.html). I put it in "$/snap/gimp/560/.config/GIMP/3.0/scripts", made sure it is executable and restarted GIMP. It is supposed to show in the Tools menu, but nothing is there.
* The plug-in pl_stroke_arrows (https://github.com/Scallact/gimp-stroke-...me-ov-file). I put the folder in "$/snap/gimp/560/.config/GIMP/3.0/plug-ins", made sure that pl_stroke_arrows.py is executable and restarted GIMP. It is supposed to show in the Edit menu, but nothing is there.

Any idea about what the problem is? My GIMP is the French version, could that be it?

Thanks for your advice, John

How to change the border color of the top Title line of the Welcome dialog, from darkish gray to white. See the diagram.
   
It's harder than changing any of the other borders, because it's hard to discover the CSS class or selector that controls this border.

   

Only 3 countries left to win the FIFA World Cup. Anyone's guess who will win/

I want to change the color of the border of the Welcome Dialog Window in gimp.css
I have managed to change the other borders OK.
Can somebody please tell me the name of the selector or whatever controls the look of this border.

I am using GIMP v3.2.4.

My grandmother had a 1920s photo album that she gave to my uncle before she passed. My uncle let me borrow the album to digitize photos for posterity and to share with the "clan." The album's pictures are so old and fragile that I could not remove them from their pages without destroying them. I wound up using a flatbed, full color scanner and scanning whole pages at 300 DPI. I would have scanned them at 600 DPI, but scanning 75 two-sided pages with two-to-three pictures per page would have taken twice the time and twice the digital footprint. Even at 300 DPI it still took me a few hours to carefully scan the album. Plus, you cannot improve image quality that did not exist in the first place.

I have already rotated pages 180° for the ones I scanned upside down to prevent damage to the album, and rough-cropped individual images down to their far borders. Now I need to straighten them out before I crop them further or use GIMP to remove the old-fashioned picture "corners." Most of the corners are (were) black, some brown, and quite a few were red after late 1928/early 1929. Pictures should be straightened out before cropping further or removing picture corners to help reduce anomalies. Not all, but most pictures need to be straightened by less than a couple degrees of rotation.

Does GIMP have a built-in tool, or can I download a plugin for v3.0 that will allow me to straighten pictures, so they truly are perpendicular?

I am new to using GIMP, but I am no stranger to photo, video, or audio editing. Thanks in advance for any helpful information.
