Drop autodesk. I’ve got access to autodesk products as an educator, and I’ve used inventor for years, but I have only had FreeCAD on my system for months. I have not found myself being unable to do anything I could do in Inventor.

It’s been a week, did you figure it out?
The switch on the printer, does it switch on the AC side or DC? Because if it’s on the AC side of the PSU (which it really ought to be) that narrows possible culprits down quite a lot.


I want to believe, I really do. But I fear that the crypto apps people have grown dependent on will make it harder than the desktop battle. And IDK but I seem to recall every year since at least 2001 being proclaimed to be the year of the Linux desktop.
I rely on my banking apps (plural), governmental email app, government authentificator app and the governmental LMS app for public schools to make my everyday function. And the last time I tried just a custom ROM, those apps refused to run.

Indeed, feeling the need to check, I can tell you that we’re not in the onion anymore…


But I only needed three more 30 day trials to finish downloading cd2 of the phantom menace cam that I started in 1999…


POV: Be a software developer. It’s 2025. You’re maintaining dialer software for an ISP. The software is written in Delphi or Visual Basic. It’s all you’ve done since 1995. You’ve got 5 years to retirement. Corporate announces end of life for dial up services.


You are equating Israel to all Jewish people.
No I’m not. I’m saying it’s close to the rhetoric from 100 years ago, not the same.
That’s offensive!
To whom? I personally find it offensive, that you would try such a cheap trick to end this argument. Purposefully misinterpreting my comment in an attempt to get me to look antisemitic? Seriously?


This is such a weird stance for American companies and politicians. It truly blows my mind. You can say whatever you want about Americans or anything here. You can even say the president is a pedophile and it’s fine (even if it wasn’t true) but the second you say something bad about Israel because they suck everyone starts flipping their shit.
With you so far.
It’s like our whole country is secretly run by Israel or something.
DANGER WILL ROBINSON: That’s cutting it pretty darn close to the whole Jewish cabal bullshit. Your country is not secretly run by Israel. It’s run by reactionary old farts, who’s more afraid of being called antisemitic, than they value human rights.
This. You’ve got to ask yourself, what your goal when interacting with law enforcement is. It it your goal to stand up for every right? Or do you want to get away for the interaction as easy as possible?
Let me give you an example of what I mean. I Denmark police can stop and ID you without a cause. You don’t have to provide an ID, but you have to state your name, address, and birthday. If you don’t, then you’ll be arrested. Our SSNs consists of birthday and a checksum. You’re not required to state your SSN checksum, but if you do state it, the police will have to pay you if the stop is longer than 10min.
So giving the police a little more than they’re entitled to, can get you out of the interaction a lot easier.
Of course you can stand up for your rights, and if you want to fight, then do it. But it will make your day harder.
We’re so focused on electronics here, but this part can save your ass:
Bring a small new blank paper note book you can keep in a pocket with a small pen or pencil
The following is translated from the meager tactical training I’ve received: Emphasis on the pencil being small. You definitely don’t want a full size pencil in your pocket if shit hits the fan and you get tumbled.
Maybe get a waterproof notepad. But make sure that you can easily rip out pages. Use a single sheet for all the info you don’t want the police to have (like all the other burner phone numbers and such) That way you can rip that sheet out and swallow it, if you’re about to be captured.
Also, about the scarfs. I don’t know about the US, but at least in my own country, it’s illegal to use a mask at protests. Meaning a mask would get you singled out and targeted by law enforcement.


Other day I tried opening the command prompt on a windows server 2019 by hitting the start button and typing cmd. Waited for 20s before hitting win+r and running cmd.exe from there.
Ws2k19 maybe dated, but wtf is up with that level of performance in searching? I mean if you can’t do it in a way approaching satisfactory, then why roll it out at all?


My new job issued me with a sweet ass workstation laptop… With W11
Upside is that the IT dept has about zero awareness of the governance part of cyber security. The laptop has an unlocked bios and coworkers have had no questions asked when their domain joined machines didn’t check in for years.
So guess who’s about to swap the ssd and roll the machine for a debian based distro. Just need to figure out drivers for the nvidia rtx 1000 ada GPU


From the other post I remember you said that having the letters in the top layers didn’t work for you, because that meant a lot of support material to remove.
From what I understand, your product consists of two parts. The large part with the letters and a counter part, which is just a flat piece.
So why not put the letters in the flat piece? That way you can print them either way up.


Stratasys uPrint, the filament is 10x the normal price, and you can’t refill the spools. 260 USD for 42ci (I guess it’s a kg) https://store.goengineer.com/products/p430xl-model-spool-uprint-se-ivory?pr_prod_strat=e5_desc&pr_rec_id=cbc1c0b23&pr_rec_pid=7204500635830&pr_ref_pid=2409166831721&pr_seq=uniform

How about locking all the advanced functions behind a hardware lock that requires an online key to unlock? Besides getting an IP address for geolocation, this approach would enable manufacturers to put a subscription on the features as well. Require users to provide a government issued ID that matches the name on the credit card used.
VPN! I hear you cry. But the driver is already running pretty close to the hardware, so good luck hiding a VPN client.
So while you can’t guarantee a street address accuracy, you can get country and overall regional subdivision.
Only if you pay them


Add to that, that most homes have multiple devices that you want connected. So you need a fiber switch as well. 150usd will get you a mikrotik crs305, with 4 sfp+ ports. And you’ll probably want a router, but perhaps you can offload that to your ISP, kinda like routing on a stick.
And even if you sampled at 10 sps, and did 50 sensors at 10b, you would still only be looking 5000bps or 5.8x10-7 GBps, meaning that it would take roughly 26 years to fill up a 512GB SD card.
While I don’t know for how long the sub had been submerged, I doubt it was close to a quarter of a century. If that was the case, I believe that we would have been talking about that as well. Even if it was 500 sensors, at 100sps at 12b we’d be looking at 79days.
IMHO there’s only a few things a 512GB SD card would be used for. And I hope it was music, because I don’t think we should watch the final moments of these people’s lives.
