Can’t wait to update! It took some time to learn Freecad (I had only minor experience with CAD) but it was well worth it. The QOL updates in the last 1-2 years alone are massive.

Even though I am not affected by the TNP (I learned to design without using faces from the beginning) it will eliminate a huge frustration trap and I’m sure more people are going to like and use Freecad instead of proprietary software

That equals 5.143 bananas

Hope your CD player had skip protection 😉

Whenever I encounter an unnecessary but mandatory phone number input I stop the process, search for a number of the company and use that.

That’s not entirely correct: One achievement was me donating money to the IA after this nonsense 😁

I can hear this meme so hard. Even the spool down and spool up of the CD drive in this situation is burned in forever. It’s been more than 20 years but it feels like yesterday

30 years ago we definitely had snow in winter. Sometimes more, sometimes less. But I remember playing in snow basically every winter as a kid. And I’m living in a very mild region of Germany. Now I’m considering all season tires (just for legal purposes) to not change wheels twice a year, since there is maybe some snow for one week in total.

Spoke with a guy this week who was born in the 30s. He said winter back then was much harder. Whole lakes or even rivers were frozen solid. I can’t imagine being able to walk to the other side of a major river…

But I’d say (at least that’s my experience) it’s not a very addictive substance. Or it depends heavily on the person.

I drink 0-5 cups a day. I like the taste and I like drinking it in some social settings. I don’t need it in the morning to get my body awake. I can just stop drinking coffee any time for longer periods of time without any issues.

Once I was working in Bavaria for about 6 weeks. We drank around 1l of beer every dinner. Returning home I wanted to drink a beer after the first dinner. This made me stop drinking alcohol for two months and since I made this experience I regularly stop consuming substances that may be addictive. I never experienced this with caffeine.

When I’m signing up on a site with a mandatory telephone number and I don’t want to share mine, I always look up their number and use that 😎

Wait until they start to orbit in formations representing company logos and serving us advertisements from space…

Replace judges with people. This effect can be seen everywhere. Especially within professionals lacking Knowledge in some topic (but of course taking Part in discussions)

This is the correct answer. Don’t overthink this. Just go, have a look and that’s it. Tell everybody involved that you don’t have to proof anything if they ask.

I know people who could afford this house easily that walk around like a regular farmer. Sales people having regular contact with wealthy people know this.

Yes.

I’m the opposite: I migrated 2 4TB drives from my first NAS into the actual one. The drives are going strong and nearing ten years (!) of run time. Two out of eight drives died in this server since 2017. Both were newer. I’m not going to change a single disk before it dies. Most value for money in my opinion.

But I can afford this „risk“: My server has a redundancy of 2 disks. It has a local USB backup, is mirrored to two remote servers in different locations with local backups as well.

Aber am sehr nächsten Tag, du gabst es weg 💔

Poor fish will get very depressed when it realizes no one is going to feed him for free 😂

Nice

Well what a intelligent decision it was to bombard people with ads in OSs that were paid for.

I switched the day Microsoft clickbaited me into clicking on an ad while testing the new outlook with the paid 365 subscription I had. At this point I was having a constant stream small annoyances at least every week since Windows 7.

My host is running Linux mint now and 365 was replaced by only office (since this seemed to be the most similar and compatible office package I found). Trouble free since January. Battery lasting twice as much. Zero work lost because of unexpected update reboots 👍🏼

I’m so happy, I even bought a Steam deck to support Valve/Proton
