I've been pirating for a looooooong time. I've never once gotten viruses. stick to private trackers, and proven uploaders for software (fitgirlrepacks, solidsquad, etc) and you won't get viruses.
damn, that thing must be like, a Scottish castle or something LOL.
super cool that you live there!
now I'm confused about onshape though, as anything digital that's "free" has long since enshittefied, and sold you as the product......... could the seriously be one of the last bastions of good free software? it may not be OSS, but if its really that good........ hmmm, food for thought. I'll have to do more research on it.
you don't need windows, but that is how I have my install set up, as WINE can be kind of buggy with the program. it doesn't need networking, so no risk of m$ taking info, and SW2024 can run on 8GB and some CPU passthrough.
speaking as someone who's tried just about ever 3dCAD program under the sun, SW is the best on the market for ease of use, documentation, and available plugins.
openSCAD is absolute hell for ease-of-use, onshape sells your data, freecad has the same issues as openscad, and AutoCAD, while good, still is worse than SW due to poorer documentation, and more annoying interface.
of course, there is always the option of doing the drawings by hand on paper, with a ruler, a compass, and a protractor. this may be your best option for sharability, as your local municipality may want to have it for their records as well, assuming that a) they don't already have it, and b) if they do, you were unable to procure the original blueprints.
its the right tool for everything engineering related; you can do drafting very easily, its built-in.
onshape may have a free tier, but piracy is better than free, due to "free" meaning that your information is the product being sold (to other vendors).
pirate solidworks. fuck dassault systemes, but they make a damned good cad program, with excellent documentation on how to do just about everything under the sun (and some stuff that even the sun don't shine on)
use a win10 ltsc VM with device passthru for running it, it won't know the difference.
proton has a 99usd/yr package, for their VPN (port forwarding, the works), cloud storage (500gb+10gb per year subscribed), email (infinite autogenerated aliases, a bunch of dedicated addresses), and really good password manager with 2fa integrated.
you'd save about 60 USD, and get a whole bunch of other stuff in addition.
lol, made you look. did you like the title? :P
I don't see anything different.
...maybe federation stuff hasn't happened yet?
read the new releaseof bookworm (hannelore year 5, vol1) , here's my thoughts:
should have known better than to trust a politician with a gun....
look at that abhorrent fucking trigger discipline, he's going to fucking obliterate whatever is above him without knowing what lies above his target, or what damage will happen because of his negligence.
and, as always, a reminder for the rules of gun safety. you can never be too safe when handling a deadly weapon:
edit: lmao, whoever down voted this clearly doesn't know anything about guns. anyone not displaying proper gun safety is to be slapped, and their gun rendered safe until such time that they display proper safety procedures. these rules are universal, and taught the world over.
good luck not giving yourself a Darwin award, dumbasses.
agreed. I'd say let the kid sleep in NLT 10AM, depending on weekly schedule, school workload, etc.
the rules regarding screentime for me, are as follows:
family and I did a bunch of yard work today.... she was happy to lay in the grass while we all pulled weeds lol.
2 very full large waste bins later, we got it all done.
I think its a robin, I've seen them pretty frequently, and snapped a photo.
google pixel 7 pro, 5x zoom, if memory serves.
(yes, she got pets)
possibly a canary, not sure. saw it while on a hike with family.
Google Pixel 7 Pro, taken at ~11x zoom if memory serves.
I get a lot less annoyed at the opposite, I sorta like hearing all that, its really funny to see, as its both super stupid, and also a telltale sign that theyre actually mad. I usually have a good laugh at/with the guys who do it.
"gg ez" only means they are either trolling, or just plain thought it was a nice easy game. no fun laughs or anything, just boring "oh I'm so good zomg" stuff. I get annoyed not due to the "they thought it was easy" but just because its such low effort that you couldn't spend more than half a second typing a message to talk to the other team. put some more effort into communication for crying out loud. its not hard, you literally just have to talk.
