I went Inventor -> SOLIDWORKS -> Fusion -> SOLIDWORKS with maybe 3% of the issues I’ve had with FreeCAD.

You can’t easily create models based on other models, or place things around as easily, it’s always a mess of shape binders and fixed coordinates, it really limits the capabilities of the software.

I’m always checking forums, discords, YouTube for the simplest things… I’m trying and I keep trying, but it’s very obtuse to just dismiss the issues as “people don’t want to learn”, 'cause I’m putting more time into FreeCAD than any other CAD, and getting shit results.

When I started using SOLIDWORKS I had 0 training, still managed to make it work. FreeCAD is still frustrating after a lot of effort. But I keep trying, because it’s the only real open source option

Yes but I don’t know why

It’s still… Difficult if you’re used to commercial CAD suites, but it’s leagues better than it used to be

I use NUT with an Eaton Ellipse but it periodically stops working and I’m forced to restart the container

I used to have a Nextcloud instance on a shared webhost… It ran like shit but you can’t beat the storage space… VPS storage is expensive.

Now I use syncthing on my home server

There’s no rules here

Siemens Field PG: you make a lot of money

Wasn’t Amarok (from which Clementine was forked) recently brought back from the dead?

I’m Linux-exclusive tho

shit I was planning on learning programming starting from python… so what now? I’ve got some high-school level microcontroller C memories, and I’m proficient with Ladder and simple Instruction List. I tend to learn by doing, that’s why I was going for Python, it felt like I could make something straight away.

“Please Mr. Router, mercy!”

Shit, let’s hope the ICANN cops don’t find me out then… I’ve been using it for years!

Thunder is great

Isn’t it GPL? Someone could request the code of the last release

Raccoon was being pushed a lot on my instance, because the dev is Italian I think… Now I’m thankful I didn’t switch

I always update via CLI 'cause most GUI tools are slow and buggy, so…

I think an older Ryzen and an RX590 can be had for decent prices, no?

Patient gamers at least have the steam deck option now

OpenTracks?
