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

Microsoft is so confident in its desktop marketshare that they allow themselves to push the overton window on what users will tolerate.

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.

I've had a cat come home with pigeons and a small snake. One thing for sure it wasn't a gift for me. He comes home with his pray so stray cats from the neighborhood don't steel his catch.

I thought waiting a line with 30 to 40 people ahead was a nightmare, until I saw the Brits queuing for a mile to see the deceased queen. That day I realized no one can beat the Brits at queuing.

Even Europe has stopped producing those buildings. Each era comes with its own stylistics expressions. Amsterdam's newer district is full of modern cubical buildings. Even if they look a bit better than the one's shown in this meme, they belong to the same post modern movement.

Another thing to consider is that every other extra luxury that is purely a stylistic addition will be an extra expanse on the end buyer

Labour are shooting themselves in the foot. Instead of proposing a tax on the ultra wealthy to try and subsidize buying less polluting cars. They are forcing the poor to buy cars they can't afford in cities where public transport is both not complete and expensive. They have lost touch with the working class. Alienating them against climate action. And driving them to the arms of the Tories.

They killed the canteen. The food went from bearable to shit. That was their way of nudging employees to quit.

My experience was that when solving captchas where you select pics on the grid and other pics load and replace the selected ones within the same round. in firefox it tends to play those fade-in fade-out very slowly. while on chrome they appear instantly.

Unfortunatly I can't expand my obveservation just based on my own anecdotal experience. have you noticed the same behaviour ?
