I seem to recall some artists that hang out around here somewhere. HumbleBundle has a graphics bundle up and part of the money you pay goes to charity. PaintShop Pro and CorelDraw programs available. Linked below if you are interested.
Room To Read and The V Foundation are the two they have on this bundle.

Check it out if you are interested.

If you need it, that is an absolute bargain: I have Painter 2019 and keep getting "loyalty ads" offering Painter 2021 to me for just £150. This is the 2020 version, but there isn't that much that has changed there in the real world.
And that's the latest CorelDraw: retails for over £500!
[edit]
I just noticed the CorelDraw is a 6 months thing: not the full purchase product.
That makes it a lot less desirable.
[/edit]
Good solid bundle, thanks!

No, that's the game pack at the top - they do one every month and that requires a subscription.
The bundle he refers to is a "one off payment" and does not involve any subscriptions - I bought one some months ago when the charity was worth giving the money to (and some of the software was useful).

Hi Griff,
Should the Lounge allow testimonials with links to any kind of commercial software ? I think that's a slippery slope.
Perhaps I'm too cynical, but, is HumbleBundle really a charity ? [^]Quote: Total Funding Amount $4.5M

Humble Bundle's award-winning team has raise over $75 million for charity. They empower you to pay what you want for downloadable content and choose where your money goes.

They aren't a charity, but a chunk of what you pay does go to charities.

Ron, I apologize for being tentacle-happy, and reporting your message. With hindsight, I think sharing "good deals" relevant to members' concerns with positive intent is ... a good thing.

No harm no foul as they say, Bill. I've been so busy today I haven't had time to come and look, so I missed the drama. 
It's all good.
Thanks everyone.

I usually work with all the ML related stuff i.e. model training etc. on my local system but just this once I decided to go with Google Colab and I'm disappointed. I'm only trying to train a simple MCNN with rather very small dataset (only 400 images) and Colab session keeping on crashing. Once session crashes, you're back to square one and have to run the whole notebook again. Seriously Google? 
Of course I'm working with free tier but it would be nice if they had some other way to warn us about the full utilization of resources. May be have some hard restriction that RAM utilization cannot exceed more than 10GB instead of a crash? Or may be have a better log system in place? Even the logs are super unhelpful.
I tried working with even smaller dataset consisting of only 50 images (8MB) and the session still crashed? How can I utilize 12GB RAM over 8MB dataset?  So not cool Google!

For me, augmented reality(AR) and virtual reality(VR) are't new concepts. Once in my childhood, I dreamed that with the help of virtual reality, someone else would sit at school instead of me. It was my secret plan)
My eight-year-old nephew recently asked me to explain the difference between VR, AR, MR, and RR. Who has had exciting ideas? How can this be explained? I only found VR vs AR vs MR vs XR: Plunge into Virtual Universe | Jelvix[^]this

Aw, there's still so much of the alphabet to go through. Wait until they're done creating new version of reality and then answer the the tyke.
An interesting option for you: in CR (Convenient Reality) he never asked the question. . .
I mean, really, in the subject you have VR, AR, MR, and XR whilst withing the body of your post haveWilliam.Front-end wrote: VR, AR, MR, and RR.
except where you haveWilliam.Front-end wrote: VR vs AR vs MR vs XR:
which points to a reality all your own.

Having your holograph sit in on a class would be "mixed reality".
Augmented and mixed include reality, virtual does not.
Mixed reality is aware of reality (via space mapping), the others are not.
XR just means any of the "_R" types.
RR is rest and relaxation.

I saw a chair I wanted but couldn't decide if it fit in the car I was driving, and I didn't want to haul it out to the parking lot, etc.
A virtual box or virtual passenger door / trunk would have been handy.
Virtually pack your moving van to get it right the first time, and so on. No more "packing problems".
