Had great success on Kubuntu. Set up the desktop to have two giant icons only: Firefox, and shutdown.

On Windows the constant popups for updating various components were causing much confusion Java, flash (back in the day), printer "drivers", and of course windows itself would throw popups about updates requiring clicking buttons every time they used the computer, which was very infrequently, and cause them much confusion ("what does update mean" ?")

Meanwhile on Kubuntu all updates go "shhhh" in the background, and no more confusing "To shutdown, press Start"

Non-american here, so maybe a stupid question: How are the insurance companies compensating the owners if they decide to needlessly scrap their car? Shouldn't owners get marked value of the car with which they can buy an equivalent car?

Thanks for the clarification.

Are there any plans for a built-in sync feature in the future?

I'm glad to see more manufacturers making non-SUV EVs :)

Like maxmal said, FreeCAD has an Architecture (and BIM) workbench, which is heavily developed by one of the main FreeCAD Devs. Try it out and see if it works for you

Calling the architecture workbench a plugin is technically correct, but a bit misleading, as all core features are technically plugins(workbenches). The Architecture workbench is a built-in default feature

To be fair that guide is a lot of big command-line prompts for anybody not used to using the terminal, even if it's all copy-paste

Thanks for sharing, LibrePCB looks amazing, much simpler than KiCAD.

Last time I used KiCAD (admittedly quite some years ago) it was amazingly powerful but kinda overwhelming to get started

"On a DVD"... 😅 in some decades that might as well be like saving your video to 8mm film. Gotta call some specialist antique dealer on the other side of the continent to find the right tech and right adapters to play it back on modern hardware

Surely contributing to Wine and running their windows apps on Linux would yield better faster results than re-implement Windows from scratch. I don't quite see who the target audience is

Sleek looks amazing

But is there a FOSS todo.txt client for mobile (Android)? Searching around I could only find the official Todo.txt for Android on GitHub which is unmaintained since 2018, and some Todo.txt for Android on the play store which is up to date but not sure if it's affiliated or not , and no mention of being FOSS

Also some FOSS projects and some content creators use it to spread announcement

And NASA posts a lot of astronomy pictures with #astromigration

Some of the "popular twitterers" are also on Mastodon, like @georgetakei@universeodon.com , @stephenfry@mastodonapp.uk (less activity), @neilhimself@mastodon.social
