it looks like Fusion 360 runs fine on Linux

I can assure you, it does not.

Do not switch to Linux and expect this project to save you, it is NOT beginner friendly.

It’s great, and I’m sure someone smarter than me could probably get it working, but personally, I failed miserably and switched to OnShape.

have you seen what people can do with makeup? The prince didn’t stand a chance!

I’d like to see stats on that, because there are equally many 2nd language speakers in English speaking spaces as well. Not to mention the brits, irish, aussies, kiwis, canadians, etc, and that’s before we get into this list of places with a non majority first language population, like many countries in Africa.

I think the percentage of Americans on the internet will be higher, but still not a majority

Greece re-introduces the 6 day work week… It used to be the standard. Y’know, in the 18th fucking century

Huh. My phone always tries to correct MAGA to MEGA… at least now it’ll make sense… Now I just need someone to make one for MEGAN

Make Europe Great Again, Ned!

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world has a distinctive profile picture, and I see them everywhere. Also I suspect I know @Dave@lemmy.nz IRL, but I’m not certain.

Lol, I’m not sure I’d describe it as anime, but I understand what you mean. Personally I quite like the aesthetic of it. It makes them feel just the right amount of fake to me that I won’t feel bad deleting the pool ladder. I can totally see how it would bug you though. Hopefully it’ll be easy to mod out, or at least turn down.

I still have hope for Paralives

Have a look at Paralives

So what I’m hearing is: Fauci DIDN’T shoot a puppy in a gravel pit for essentially getting too excited…

what a monster /s

Recently found out about https://elan.school/ which ended up being run by ex “students.” It’s not the same thing, but there are parallels. Conversion therapy is essentially brainwashing at it’s core, and I find it fascinating (in a horrifying, train crash, can’t look away, kind of way) that in both cases, ex members become involved in perpetuating the horror.

eta: I agree it does not absolve them

I’d say it’s because Apple’s implementation isn’t essentially spyware at it’s core. The Microsoft implementation was straight up deranged and dangerous, frankly.

Thanks, that was a great answer! I had no idea it was so complicated. I was definitely in the naive camp there.

After covid, this strikes me as a dangerous thing to say. Are you an immunologist and could you expound on this?

Margaret Elaine Hamilton (née Heafield; born August 17, 1936) is an American computer scientist, systems engineer, and business owner. She was director of the Software Engineering Division of the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory, which developed on-board flight software for NASA’s Apollo program. She later founded two software companies—Higher Order Software in 1976 and Hamilton Technologies in 1986, both in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Hamilton has published more than 130 papers, proceedings, and reports, about sixty projects, and six major programs. She invented the term “software engineering”, stating “I began to use the term ‘software engineering’ to distinguish it from hardware and other kinds of engineering, yet treat each type of engineering as part of the overall systems engineering process.”

On November 22, 2016, Hamilton received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from president Barack Obama for her work leading to the development of on-board flight software for NASA’s Apollo Moon missions.

Huh, didn’t know about her! She sounds like a badass lady!

Have they said that or are you just implying that? It’s beta right now but I’d put money on them following in Google’s footsteps and integrating right into the main search.

It’s enshitification because instead of simply fixing their crappy SEO laden results, they’re pushing this new thing.

I’m also willing to bet that once it’s out of beta there will be either a limit on free searches or it’ll just be straight up subscription model.

And just like that, normal search is dead, and the only viable option is to pay for their new thing

Aaaaand the DDG enshitification begins… continues? continues.
