Paywall?

That id my main issue. The lack of transparency send me down a bug hunt for a few hours before I realized apt installed a snap package. Makes me angry for some reason, but now I know

Solche Trottel. Man geht ja nicht zu einem kleinen hosting Anbieter um dann doch seine Daten an ms ab zu geben. Ich checks nicht…

I am a bit confused. I see a lot of problems that the EU has. But it is so stupidly important to have a collective so we have a stance against other economy or military giants. Stuff like mandatory usb c, some environmental stuff, support of the Ukraine, having basically free trade and travel inside the EU, more wealthy countries supporting and helping economically weaker countries, GDPR (pain for devs, i know) and things like that come to my mind. I am aware there are a shit ton of problems in the EU, but I would not want to miss those above. The US would kick each country around like shit if we would not be united.

I sometimes feel like the left, which I count myself to, is just as populilistic as the far right. Its easy to bash on someone or a system that is flawed, but without the EU for example we would be fucked as well. Why not fight for a better EU? Why spend time and energy to divide again? Its not black and white as always I suppose

Its about 2 years with Linux on my laptop and about 1 year full time on all my devices, besides my work laptop with runs w11.

I run KDE neon on both. I distro hopped around from Ubuntu, fedora, mint, KDE, pop but ended up with KDE again. I feel like it does not matter anymore what de or distro I use. I need my browser and a terminal and my tools, then i can work.

Its nice having a reminder every time I am working with windows that I did the correct choice.

There are some bugs, but at least tgjey are mine now.

Only thing I miss, is ableton. I did not dabble in it with wine or winboat too much, but that’s the only thing I miss.

But worth it. I stand behind the idiology and got a few other people around me to switch

Das ist echt crazy, so viele machen da mit von denen ich echt was anderes erwartet hätte. Die scheinen richtig gut zu zahlen lol

There is a paywall

Ich hab gehört der ganze Apparat bis man eine Durchsuchung machen kann ist so langsam, dass Deutschland schon sicher ist und man bid dahin umziehen kann

CAD:

• FreeCAD (bit clunky at times, it forces you into one specific workflow. Its free, open source and what you create with it will always be yours. Its what I use. It feels like C in programming language terms)
• onshape (feels very similar to fusion. Its a smooth experience, runs in the browser and is a nice tool. I liked it and did some cool stuff with it. Only drawback: the free only allows to store files openly, so everyone can see your designs. Kind of open source if you want, but I think files can only be opened with oshape. Its by a team that worked for solidworks. It feels more like python.)
• open s cad (you code your 3d objects. Its rough to learn and build complex parts I guess? But a pretty cool idea. Worth a try!)

SLICERS (all open source) It does not really matter, just try and pick what you like. I used them for fdm only, idk about resin.

• cura (by ultimaker, one of the older brands. Slicer is quite nice, nothing special I guess, just works quite well.
• prusa slicer (by prusa. THE printer brand I think. A bit confusion interface compared to cura I think, works great tho)
• orca slicer (based on slic3r I think? Has supposedly one of the best slicing algorithms if I remember correcly and a lot of settings. The forbidden one (baboo lab slicer) is based on this)
• slic3r (the og slicer of sorts, never tried it)

OTHERS: To control your printer (remotely if it does not offer it out of the box. I tried none of them):

• octoprint (sends live g code to your printer. Offers camera stream. Runs on a raspberry pi)
• mainsail is (controls your printer, if it runs clipper. Supposed to be one for the best I think. Runs on a raspberry as well I think?)
• many new ones have remote controll stuff build in. Prusa offer remote management, same as bamboo, sovol, some enders and anycubic ad well I suppose. Some run in the browser.

To control your printer when fiddling with it, you can send gcode to the printer over serial, if you can connect to it via usb. Can’t name a CLI tool for that from the top of my head.

There are python tools to generate 3d meshes from 2d images. Look at huggingface how to install and use it. There are also tools in the browser. Pretty cool stuff!

Is there a version without paywall?

Dit feels like a transcription of a video, rather than an article

Oh true. I find it so crazy that like every western country tries to take control of the internet like its in any way manageble. Either they have to all agree on one way to control things which will not happen, or they will have to create country wide Intranet with very strict separation. There is no other way to enforce their stupid ideas. If we think their current ideas through it has to end in total control and dystopia. I hate it

In what way? I thought Australia is pretty far usa’s butt

If i understand you correctly, I suppose you come from another cad program. In freecad you can’t select a shape of a drawing to extrude or pocket. Each operation like pad needs its own, simple sketch to extrude.

Here is the workflow:

• create scetch
• create rectangle (70*100) in it
• exit sketch
• select sketch and click pad, make it 30mm
• close and click the top face, create new sketch
• in the sketch create a rectangle
• get the top edge with the transfer tool
• make the 3 sides 10mm spaced from the border
• make the last side of the rectangle vertical to the right side of the imported line (select the point at the end)
• exit sketch
• select the sketch and select pocket
• make it 10mm or so
• exit, select the face and then click draft
• angle it the way you want

Should be done

I don’t know if that helps or what your error is exactly, if you need more help please be more specific what you did and what did not work and what you expected to happen

bitti? 👉👈

Oh neim, hast du dir den Zeh gestoßen?

Aber laser sind doch rot

Removed by mod

Which would you recommendend? I could just find the xiaomi book 14, which has a 12the gen i5. Not too impressive, depending on waht you want to do

I just glanced over it and skipped some parts.

But I like it, and I think its actually what you set out to create. Its very long though, I imagine if its a video, it will be 40 mins long? Which is too long for someone not quite invested in switching to Linux imo

Maybe make the “why windows sucks” 'why Linux is better" “Linux Options” in 3 distinct parts, so its a few smaller bites of information, always pointing to the next one in the series?
