"Erfahrung heißt gar nichts. Man kann seine Sache auch 35 Jahre lang schlecht machen." - Kurt Tucholsky

Which DeepL translates to

"Experience means nothing. You can do a bad job for 35 years."

Not strictly life changing, but a very valuable reminder, if you need to deal with 'that' kind of person.

No no, I don't mean Lemmy. I'm talking of external links. It feels like some server replies are not as responsive once I use Firefox, while chrome-based browsers react very fast.

Thanks for the feedback. To add to the clients: Voyager has implemented a quite well working search function, but got veeery slow on Firefox recently. But it's important to mention that (my guess) this behavior is not Voyager's fault, but conspiracy on rather Firefox' requests are handled with lower priority... Yep, just a personal feeling, nothing I could prove.

Unfortunetely one can just upvote once. Two absolutely fascinating episodes!

Having tested OnShape years ago, where it already appeared very feature rich and smooth, I have no doupt one can for sure realize complex multi-part assemblies with it. For me the interesting part, in a professional environment, would be the software's capabilities of its drawing module. Full digital workflows seem to gain track, but for me detailed technical drawings are still the bread and butter application of a CAD.

For private use strictly FreeCAD, at the job Inventor Professional. While FreeCAD is 'not there yet' in many regards, it's a great piece of software -if- you accept the flat learning curve and invest time. But I understand what you're saying. If you already have a solid understanding of CAD-basics, you rapidly understand what the programmers want to achieve and get there relatively fast. If you expect tabet-esque convenience (which I think from a professional standpoint should not be the goal for a parametric modeler) I get that people get frustrated.

I went to Linux for all private use years ago. And man - I wish so very hard I could simply switch to a non win-native CAD at the job.

Am I the only one who's reminded of The Three Body Problem?

Mild spoiler alert:

Unlike humans, they have evolved the special ability to 'dehydrate', turning themselves into a roll of canvas.

In German we use the English term 'understatement' in some occasions, e.g. 'his dressing style is a clear understatement...'. My brain somehow tied the meaning to something like 'understanding', maybe due to the similarities of both words. For decades it was clear to me that someone dressing like that were dressed to the point and 'making a clear statement'. Now that I've checked the real meaning, I'm completely puzzled when and how to use the term and what I've misinterpreted all the years...

I cannot give a general advice, but what worked for me is to put 'my' world's history in a chronological order using a time line. What started when, which incidence is the root cause for the other and so on. Climbing this ladder year by year was and still is great fun. And If you ask for a software, I'd straight away would answer 'Obsidian'. It's link/ backlink feature is just awesome to keep your ideas structured. Have fun and good luck!

So, give me a heads up if you find a reliably working alternative for their FCM that enables common apps to ... work, e.g. mobile payment (not crypto), alarm messaging for emergency forces, e.g. firefighters. I'd say one can easily step back from google if you rely on independent apps and services (done that for a couple of years). But without FCM some shit simply doesn't work.
