I might consider eternity abandonware now

1 year no updates

We probably don’t use it for the same work. But I can do way way more work using other software than dancing around the interface clicking a bizzillion buttons before achieving anything. I need realtime dynamic editing and FreeCAD can’t do that.

Freecad is a real no go. Tried it and forced to do something with it. The amount of bugs. And really basic bugs makes using it for professional work a non starter. It basically is a collection of amateur software stitched together with no single part having reached maturity.

Freecad was built on top of a giant library called opencascade. Which is in part the reason why we can’t have dynamic or real time modeling. Everything takes triple the interactions to make than in its commercial counterparts.

Add to that the lack of vision and the different fields of work of the contributors makes its development spread all over the place. Unlike blender, it doesn’t seem like FreeCAD will achieve a breakthrough milestone.

It is either an extortion from your domain registrar or sometimes opportunistic domain squatters taking over your domain for a year or two. Check for how long it was registered a put a reminder to get it back

Oh shit. Now that I have checked, it was turned on by default on mine too.

What’s wrong with you mozilla ?? Firefox was supposed to be the alternative

Le deuxieme fait marquant ce soir sont les chaises hautes du plateau De TF1. Le designer detest vraiment les politiques et veux leur faire passer un quard d’heure inconfortable .

It is easier to compromise a device than to try and compromise encrypted communications.

You are telling me this has been going on for almost a decade now, and no one ever noticed ?

So we trust open source apps under the premise that if malicious code gets added to the code, at least one person will notice ? Here it shows that years pass before anyone notices and millions of people’s communications could have been compromised by the world’s most trusted messaging app.

I don’t know which app to trust after this, if any?

Aren’t apps on android hermetically sealed from other apps and malware. How could this be achieved ?

Elle aurait pu we casser une dent LA pauvre 🙃

With about a thousand new daily sign ups to mastodon it feels like it is going back to its rapid degrowth that it has been on before the Twitter debacle.

Some teachers deserve all the good in the world.

I know I shouldn’t dunk on free software. But I have never been frustrated by a software before like I was with blender. Everything seems half developed. And I always need hacks I never knew I needed to complete the smallest of projects. Modeling tools are half finished.

Like try to snap the knife tool to the midpoint of an edge? no luck. Try to constrain the knife direction to one of the vertex directions ? No luck. Try to make the curve profile width consistent in 3d? no luck . do proper precision modeling ? Impossible . snapping in unreliable half of the time. and on and on and on .

I am very grateful for the free software and the devs hard work. I bet trying to make blender do many things at once keeps it in a state with many unfinished tools .

5 m2 c’est quoi ? Une SDB ?

Could you imagine this is what we are training AI with !

I bet they can scrape Lemmy content for free then. There are no legal mechanisms to prevent them from doing so.

I know. I was talking about making it default. As many newcomers won’t know about it’s existence first hand, and give up on it

Yes some call it tabbed menu. Others call it ribbon menu. It should be the default as many users nowadays are used to this UX paradigm

Why libre office hasn’t adopted the tabbed many bar yet is beyond me ! They are probably not gonna be sued by Microsoft. It is just a huge ux improvement and would ease the friction for new comers especially that everyone is used to using tabbed bar on every other software.

It is because of google’s SEO algorithms. Old content has been around far more to rank up higher. And because people only click on first results. Newer content can’t rank against websites with more authority. Sometimes changing the date filter helps.
