KDE will be 30 years old this year and Katie updates her look!

[f4grx@chaos.social]

@curtmack @kde yeah, no problem with waifu2x

[ridge@tilde.zone]

@f4grx Of course Just as allergic to AI and related guff as you, so I get it.

[micdan@mstdn.party]

@kde I can see Rule 34 artists also happy with the update lmao

[arpie4math@mathstodon.xyz]

@kde Looking good for 30, maybe she doesn't jog but at least looks open to it. Sadly, the BSD Daemon (originally by Phil Foglio, but reworked a bit since) is finding that potbelly isn't looking so cherubic as the years drag on. (He also seems to have lost all of his hair since the very first illustration.)

@kde@floss.social We need to bring back the 2001 Katie

[janriemer@floss.social]

@kde Nawww, cutie!🥰

[glowl@chaos.social]

@erininstereo @kde and/or kiki.

[theotheroracle@solarpunk.moe]

@kde yayyy i love her

[b@mrrp.place]

@f4grx @kde the alt text says that it's Tyson Tan's art, and considering how on the linked page they give "Take 30 techbros to court so they stop building AI datacenters" as a way to save the environment, i think it's pretty unlikely they would have used generative AI for it

[kde@floss.social]

@f4grx

They did. Tyson Tan.

[f4grx@chaos.social]

@kde I see the alt now. shame on me. thanks KDE. the remark about techbros is very appreciated.

[f4grx@chaos.social]

@b @kde I must have been tired for not thinking about the alt. sorry.

[carbisari@yiff.life]

@kde give her back her fangs!!!!!!!

[apophis@yourwalls.today]

@bunny_jane @kde the awkwardly fitting dress, the hyperfemme pink phase before shifting back to something more casually unisex,...

[b@mrrp.place]

@f4grx @kde you're good!! no worries at all

[synnef@woof.tech]

@kde futuristic...? not quite the right word but it looks amazing, good job

[draconic_neo@pawb.fun]

@kde Very cute, I love her new look.

[draconic_neo@pawb.fun]

@Carbisari
Yeah it's sad. Maybe they thought she would look less friendly with fangs. Which is dumb, fangs are cute AF

@kde

[konqi@mastodon.social]

@kde awesome!
