TBH I don't like FreeCAD - I fell like it's like recommending Gimp as a serious alternative to Photoshop. With enough effort and deep knowledge you can almost achieve similar results but you have to invest multiple times as much time. The saving in licencing cost is very quickly eastern up by the increased labour cost.

There is an alternative that has come a long way IMHO, though: BlenderBIM. They are still not quite as good as ArchiCAD and such but it runs natively on Linux and is very neat so far.

It seems like they don't back Trump despite him being a fascist, they back Trump because he is a fascist.

Also, NATO did not "expand its territories". Sovereign countries that saw the Russian aggression seeked membership to be protected.

MacOS, iOS and stock Android, too for that matter. Dark times.

BTW for the uninitiated: That's the actual quote from the former federal drug officer. No joke - we wished it was.

The German fascist party AfD is largely bankrolled by Putin. Go figure.

Unlimited for seven or so years now, never regretted it in the slightest. I feel like they throw some bonus to you whenever they can - under promise, over deliver. I've been burned a lot by companies that became evil over time, hence I'm careful with praise but so far Proton has been one of the most pleasant customer experiences I had.

I always liked wizards best because of this. They achieved their power more or less on their own, without being born or chosen privileged.

Thank you! Finally someone speaks out, too. Singapore is a totalitarian capitalist dictatorship and the closest thing we have to a true cyberpunk dystopia. It is a horrible place with clean sidewalks.

I see no reason to use any other browser than Firefox and maybe Librewolf.

I think that's a requirement

Maybe it's that homophobia and transphobia are so dominant on more popular platforms that there is a natural migration towards more free and liberal platforms. I always wondered why you see more and more racism, hate and such degeneracy the larger a platform becomes.
