I like FreeCAD. I know some people hate it, but I find the requirement to do things carefully and properly to avoid horrible errors later on really focusses my mind on what I’m designing. I end up with something that is probably better designed than if I could just lash something together and let the software sort out the mess.

They aren’t wrong that this law isn’t fit for modern times, but not in the way they mean. It needs to be e expanded into a GDPR type thing.

FreeCAD can be a right pain in the arse and things can blow up spectacularly, but it does force you to use discipline in your designing. It’s a great tool if you are careful and don’t cut corners. Other than with the mitre tool, ho ho.

Is the whole article as stupid as the summary, which sounds like it was written by an edgy 14 year old?

Well, they can fuck right off.

Loads of things superconduct below 10K - aluminium for one. This is for a different type of superconductor that can be turned on and off with a magnetic field.

I use mega.nz. £50 a year for 400GB and it’s encrypted with your private key. The Linux support is really good with a nice sync, file browser extension, access via web etc.

It’s worth noting that the version number of FreeCAD is 0.21 so it’s still very much a work in progress. It has a solid base of a very powerful 3d engine and is the bare bones of a CAD system that is usable now and will only get better.

Can you play Bash Roulette in Windows?

Seriously, you can hack it with one liners and scripts to do anything. I know you can do scripting with windows, but it just doesn’t have the sheer number of nifty little tools. The Linux philosophy has always been “do one thing and do it well”, so you can chain the simple but powerful tools together and knock up a little script to do something amazingly useful in seconds.

I can’t believe this tech bubble will burst. All the other ones have fared so well.

It’s no more of a problem than dealing with LPG, surely? Pressurise it for storage.
