Check out PixInsight, the highly acclaimed and COMMERCIAL image
processing software (it costs big bucks!):

https://pixinsight.com/

But these folks do all of their development on GNU/Linux and then
"port" the result to Microslop/Apphole:

"Recommended operating system: Linux. The reference implementation of
PixInsight, where you may expect the maximum performance and best user
experience, is the Linux version. The macOS and Windows versions are
ports of the main development trunk on Linux."

Way to go! All software should be like this (and doubtless eventually
will).

To dissuade people from using that wretched junk Microslop/Apphole,
all programmers should focus primarily on GNU/Linux and give the
other OSs the inferior "hand me down" ports.

Do I use PixInsight?

Ha, ha, ha, ha! Fuck no!

I am a TRUE PROFESSIONAL image processor and I don't need no stinkin'
GUI crutch. GNU/Linux has superior image processing tools that are
mostly CLI. With these tools I can get better results.

But the hordes of ignorant dilettantes, a lot of whom make six-figure
salaries, require a LOT of help. Thus, we have PixInsight, Photoshop,
etc. To have such software be GNU/Linux first would persuade many of
these pseudo-professional dummies to switch to a Linux distro.

Make no mistake. GNU/Linux *is* superior, but dummies and retards can't
be convinced with rational technical argument. They need to follow the
example of their software overlords.

What does that mean?

You should remember that when you show some videos of you using a GUI
because you can't manage your terminal.

The superiority is not enough. You need the ability to master it too.
And in every video you provided here, you show you need a GUI.

You're a joke.

Where's your train pic where you turned hot air/exhaust gases into a
very unrealistic Ghostbuster glob?

I'd love to watch an experienced astrophotographer GUI software user put
you to SHAME in 2 minutes.

We've seen how you ruin pictures with your bash scripting and bad code.

They're done in no time, while you spend DAYS to accomplish half of what
they can with dedicated GUI software.

FAIL.

It's YOU that's irrational. Any IDIOT that spends as much time as you
installing and tweaking one OS on one computer is a luser. You can only
do this because Mom helps with your rent.
