new coke problems

its not terrible, it just sucks that its not automatic. i am jot on windows and dont want to be treated like i am.

(in regards to the first paragraph) there are more than two reasons to play video games. “choose one of these pre-selected answers” is probably not the reason for most.

honestly, after import if you need a connectypiece you can probably just

translate([x,y,z]) { cube(5); }

here is the cheat sheet that i use for reference in openscad - it is quite good :)

i currently use ublock origin on firefox. the cookie disclaimer on the site does not allow a mandatory-cookies-only approach. it reads that you must allow them to use your data for sale/tracking

openscad is a wonderful tool if you hate using your mouse. if you prefer scripting your way to victory, it is an amazing tool.

mouse is only used to move/zoom/tilt camera, everything else is keyboard

gaming on linux is not janky. it is quite nice, and it leaves all of the MS UX nightmares at home.

i agree theat computers can be expensive, and are getting more expensive. if its for gaming, the games will be waaaaaaay cheaper, so one will have to look at the savings in the long run (especially by not having a subscription to use the product)

use linux. that will remove everything microsoft.

i made the change a few years back, and my wife made the change a few months ago. #worth

use linux.

i am unfamiliar with the printer and parts you are talking about, and am not sure which CAD program you use, so this may be irrelevant - i apologize if so, but the question is vague enough to warrant at least a little help if i can give it.

i use openscad for cad modelling. multiple files can be imported there and moved around. little pieces can be added between them if you require more attachment points than what is available (like if its connecting two roundy bits, etc).

what do you foresee as a problem with combining these two things in CAD?

if a bug arises from using proton, it would cause the same issue for users that are forced to use proton.

just click the button that builds for linux. build for as many platforms as you can. if you cant fix all of the bugs due to time, then you’ll become a better programmer for your next game and not make thise same mistakes <3

i have a 3 monitor setup for work machine and a 49" 32:9 ultrawide for my home machine. i like them both because of the things i do on them.

my home rig is regularly for gaming. a single, large, high ppi, high refresh rate, ultrawide monitor is amazing for a gaming-first setup. there is flexibility for off-work productivity here where i split 1/3x3, 2/3-1/3, or even 2/3-2/3 with 1/3 overlap.

my work rig is regularly for programming, communication (chat, video conference, email, ticket comments), time management, word processing & diffing, testing web clients… i have to do a lot of things. the structured 3-monitored layout is great for me to keep everything in its place and flip between them frequently.

both multi-monitor and single-monitor setups have their benefits. all that matters is that you choose according to your preference and expected use-case.

i turn my pc off when im not using it to save power; i thought this was normal.

“Waltzing”. cool people dance to 3:3

the fine print for their comparison charts said they were not tested equally; they just made up different benchmarking conditions for each card to make a 1st party slide. you are absolutely right on calling out their BS <3

always wait for 3rd party benchmarks. if you are looking for accurate 3rd party benchmarks, gamers nexus and hardware unboxed have extremely good standards for benchmarking (youtube)

whatever you do, dont visit Steam.

no.

dont buy AMD laptops. their laptop CPU naming scheme was changed to ensure you get the worst processor possible. not worth.

improvements over the competition are black and white… and a little yellow.
