Advice on a CAD solution in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I've used SolidWorks for over 20 years, it is NOT the right tool for 2D layouts. That's what Draftsight was for, before they killed it.

You pirate away, good luck with trojans and viruses. I'll use Onshape.

SolidWorks isn't the right tool for 2D. And if it was, Onshape has a free tier.

I've heard the opposite from other gens Français - they described Quebecois as a 400 year old version of the language with vocabulary ride with things like cauldrons and so forth.

The clerk just told me where a Monoprix was nearby.

They may not now, but they did.

While I was in France I wanted to buy some chocolate, so I asked the desk clerk at the hotel where a convenience store was. He looked at me like I had two heads. So I asked where to buy chocolate, and he helped me. Later I looked it up - the word I knew for a convenience store is "depanneur", but apparently in continental French that's a mechanic.

When I spent 4 weeks in France for business, the biggest compliment I got was that I didn't sound Quebecois. As a Canadian anglophone that only took French in high school, I'll take that as the high praise it is.

Pineapple on pizza is always hotly debated, but do you think Pineapple belongs on a burger? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

100% yes, with the caveat that it has to be fresh, grilled pineapple. Slap a canned pineapple ring on there and baby Jesus will cry.

Discovery's propulsion system is really getting out of hand.

Real time text-to-voice call - never make another phone call again! (sh.itjust.works)
 

Can't handle a phone call? This service will take that phone call and turn it into a text instead! Using a combination of AI and needlessly outgoing GenZs, we will be the voice interface for your call and direct the call to you as a series of live texts, where you can respond with texts and/or emojis! Stay comfortable in your crippling social anxiety but get shit done! Pay-per-use and subscription plans available, because everyone loves subscriptions, especially when AI is involved! Ground floor, don't miss this rocket ship!!

Sample gut flora of people with "auto-brewery syndrome", culture the samples, and sell them in pill form to DUI lawyers for their clients. (sh.itjust.works)
 

This is a shitty idea because anyone driving under the influence deserves to be tried and punished for their actions. But if this could be done, you'd have no trouble selling each pill for $1000.

Or, sell the pills for way less to those that want to get drunk off bread or pasta. Either way it's a totally plausible, feasible, potentially lucrative shitty idea.

PCBWay does CNC and sheet metal, apparently together (sh.itjust.works)
 

I thought this group might be able to appreciate this part. I ordered 5 from PCBWay. They are 1/4" mild steel. For just over $30USD each I got them in 16 days. But I have SO MANY questions about their process.

I wanted to share my incredulity with group that might also have their minds blown with this.

Scab in a Can (sh.itjust.works)
 

A can or bottle of an edible liquid that, when applied to skin, dries to a peelable scab-like consistency.

Mainstream? No, but the niche this hits it would hit HARD.

text notice overlaid on feed (sh.itjust.works)
 

Just got the update overnight and now i have a text overlaid on my feed. Is there a way to clear the message or otherwise get it to disappear?

portrait to landscape refreshes feed (sh.itjust.works)
 

I've had this happen a few times now when looking at images, I tap an image to open it, turn my devise to landscape mode, but instead of seeing the image my feed refreshes. Known bug, or has anyone else found this too?

refresh on portrait to landscape transition (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hey, I've experienced this a few times now. I've clicked an image to view it, but to get a better view I've switched to landscape mode. When this happens, instead of seeing the image still, my feed refreshes. Anyone else getting this? Known bug maybe? Thanks!

sort by "New", updates instantly all the time? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm still playing around getting my bearings here, trying to explore this still-growing federation. I've tried browsing by "New" on both mobile and desktop a couple of times, but on desktop it's almost unsuable. Any time there's a new post, the INSTANT it goes up my feed updates, and scrolls down. Sometimes it's one post, sometimes a dozen.

To me (opinion here), sorting by "new" should sort of be a timestampped thing: I want "new as of right now but nothing more". If I refresh, sure update me to the latest. But a list that's live updating as things happen? That's... not useful to me.

Am I missing something, or does anyone else feel similarly?
