It’s more BSD than anything.

Counterpoint, sometimes stuff is designed to break so something else more critical of expensive to replace does not.

I kinda just hold it all in my head and fix stuff when I notice it’s broken.

My goddaned xterm is lagging, like wtf. Literally logged into a virtual machine for work several hundred miles away running commands through some weird-ass windows SSH terminal software on a server several thousand miles away from the virtual machine and it lags less than the term on my local machine. I’ve moved from vim to vscode it’s so painful.

People shouldn’t be under the impression it’s healthy, it’s just a lot less unhealthy than cigarettes.

Of course it’s a real issue, but it’s in no way relevant to what we’re talking about.

You are, how is it sexism, exactly?

What are you on about? Are you trying to equivalence rape with someone hurting your feelings? That’s just bizarre.

In what way is any of this like victim blaming - do you feel like a woman you’ve never met saying she’d rather be around a bear than you is somehow making you a victim?

I don’t really understand the point you’re trying to make, would you mind expanding on it?

Lol, it looks like an ObviousPlant product.

No, just this joke

To be fair you can totally bind an arbitrary number of spaces to tab in vi. I’ll dig out the syntax highlighting file some time. Oh and I use vim really.

There are no pros to tabs. Configure tabs to a number of spaces.

I use vi without syntax highlighting.

Which workbench do you mean? Are you okay with basic sketch/extrude, part design works well enough, but as you say constraints can be a pain. Tbh just assume you’re working with the points for the most part - polylines work fine for slightly more complicated shapes.

My “formal” CAD training was Dassault Systeme’s CATIA V5 training manual, so I tend to default back to that. For basic geometries, use basic polygon shapes/combinations of those, for anything more complex I tend to use a polyline and sketch out a rough shape, then fully constrain to the dimension I need. If the geometry goes all to hell then stop and just use the mouse to grab a point and pull it back to where it should be before you go any further and then constrain it. (My sketches tend to be noisy with constraints just FYI).

Mangojelly’s guides on YouTube will get you pretty far (though he doesn’t constrain as much as I personally would, I suspect this is just because he’s demoing techniques rather than giving best practice at all times. he knows the software/techniques super well and is great at explaining it).

Based on Mango’s recent video there are a ton of enhancements for sketcher constraints on the latest dev branch, so hopefully they’ll be on main soon too.

If it’s assembly constraints, the only assembly workbench I’ve used is assembly3 - it works kind of how you’d expect an assembly workbench to work, but you do need to hold its hand a bit. I’ve gotten into the habit of, import as step, rename part, add to list of parts, use linear translation with the mouse to get the part roughly where it needs to be and then start applying constraints to put it where I want it.

FreeCAD is definitely getting there. Not 100% ready for prime time, but definitely getting there.

Cool story bro. Now fuck off and learn

Except legally the burden is on Samsung to prove you damaged the battery. They don’t get to say “oh well you could have done xyz, denied”

Look, I don’t want to tell you what to do with your money, but I mean if you’ve got the cash sitting around I could do with some weed?

Does it?
