Ding ding ding- the commenter your replying to must not be poor to think buying something you cannot use is a good idea 😂😭

Not just water, but holy water. At least now u know ur not a vampire either!

Thing is the same money does regularly get taxed multiple times. You get shafted on money as it comes to you (income tax) and u get shafted on that money once you spend it to (sales tax). Hell I bought a house and will get to pay taxes on that annually for as long as I own it, despite already paying my state and fed govt taxes.

It’s basically the same. Lemmy is kind of what reddit felt like before it got huge and astroturfed, it’s smaller which can be as much a benefit as a detriment depending what your after. I find interaction here tends to feel more human than reddit, on reddit comment threads especially in political subreddits you already know what the comments are gonna say before you get there, here i feel as though there is a bit more genuine thought. That being said Lemmy is not immune to echo chambers or trolls, as any bit of the internet is. Just use as you would use reddit honestly and just know your likely not to see as much content, but the content you see will get a more GENUINE feeling interaction. That’s my take anyhow.

Yes your right I suppose what I’m getting at is the whole give a man a fish saying. Yes for a lot of the homeless that step may be all they need I know homeless with jobs using other people they know addresses for work and bank accts and such but if you don’t have anybody even that step can be insurmountable. Maslow’s hierarchy and what not, shelter and food are pretty much ur most basic needs and anything more is useless without that. Add access to reasonable healthcare and perhaps homelessness could be solved.

Housing the homeless just gets them to stop sleeping on benches temporarily. It helps YOU from seeing the “unsightly hobos” in ur community. It does not solve the core issues that their having a hard time participating in our society, and is a band aid solution. Homeless people either have mental issues that need mended, drug issues that need mended, or have fallen on hard times but still need not only a home but a job to hold down that will pay for their housing and food. If it was as simple as putting homeless up in houses we would have eradicated this issue decades ago if nothing to keep the bourgeoisie from having to see the poors. Without the means to maintain and upkeep their homes they will just end up on the street again in no time.

I have not used open scad or freecad! The thing about fusion that works so well for us at work is we can design prototypes and 3d print them out of plastic, and if the test fit goes well we can then move it over to our plasma machine and cut the parts from sheet stock then weld together to make our component. We also do some more component design (think central inflation systems though wheel hubs) but the more advanced stuff the boss handles. For us to adopt at work I think it would have to have compatibility with fusion 360 as that’s what my boss uses primarily and we have dozens maybe hundreds of design files to cut brackets for engine swaps gas tank mounts control arm brackets you name it. Suppose it’s probably a bit late for us to make any move to Linux, especially considering we just got a 4 axis cnc mill and I don’t think any Linux software will play with that

So rather than use a ready made software that works perfect for designing parts you suggest I build my own software? That is simply not a feasible solution, ESPECIALLY in a business environment lol. Your 2 in one shampoo comparison is kind of irrelevant, this is more akin to suggesting that instead of purchasing a car I design one from scratch! That doesn’t help adoption of Linux in the least, it is in fact the burden that keeps more windows users from adopting.

Can u run fusion 360? We use this software at work for 3d printer and plasma table. Have not been able to find anything that could run both on linux yet.

I used to regularly work 55-60 hour weeks. For a while between 2 jobs then at one. After a decade or so I have a house and work 45 hours a week on average, I keep feeling like I should work more as the bills are still tough but fuck I don’t miss working more than I do. If u have to do it, it doesn’t seem as bad than if you don’t. Perspective matters a lot.

I’m 28 and my joints do funny things (knees and left elbow mainly, occasionally shoulders). Been a mechanic my whole life, been in a few car accidents, smashed u pa few dirt bikes, and shattered my arm into 4 peices a couple years ago on the road when somebody failed to yield turning left. Some days my body doesn’t agree with me but I don’t stop moving and I think that’s the biggest thing. Over winter break last year I slugged around the house for a couple days and by day 3 my left arm was sore. Wrist stiff knees popping. Got back after it and I felt fine you have to stay active even when it’s uncomfortable and you have to stay LIMBER nobody stretches enough lol

Don’t defy the echo chamber lest you desire the down votes!

Bmw drivers may drove fast and reckless, but at least they are actually holding the steering wheel and looking at the road most of the time. Tesla drivers aren’t even that they just sit there and scroll on their phones. Drives me nuts I’ve laid on the horn next to people watching TV and got a dirty look and a bird followed by continuing their film. They get a nice test of the auto braking on occasion.

Trump playing with tarrifs while him and all his buddies participate in insider trading has been the biggest, most blatant wealth steal in recent history that I am aware of. I tried playing the game with them and made a couple bucks, but I am not even playing with pennies compared to these assholes. They wrote the rules to make themselves win, and we will always be the losers.

Talking about 400$ gpus as budget is the problem with today’s market. My whole set up down to monitor and peripherals was maybe 850 bucks, for reference my last car was a grand. Spending 1500 plus to have a PC set up is insane to me.

Also find it ironic your crying about drivers for the rx6600 while recommending the b580, that while technically a faster card, is regularly out performed by the rx6600 due to superior driver support.

Read a statement from AMD, they are still providing day zero updates to rdna 1 and 2…

Call me an and fanboy but I have run nothing but and hardware for ages. They have always been better price for performance in my budget. Their really not shooting their own legs off when consumers don’t have a choice today. You cannot build a budget rig on Intel and Nvidia parts, there simply aren’t making good price to performance products. If u want a cheap solid 1080p PC u need a Ryzen CPU and a rx6600 that’s just the formula today. If your upset that a mid range card from almost 5 years ago isn’t getting the latest and greatest features of today’s card then perhaps you need to look a little harder into what Nvidia updates were coming out after 9+ years on Nvidia. Something tells me it wasn’t to add the newest cards features to the decade old house that don’t have supporting architecture… And is still providing day zero game updates to rdna 1 and 2 so I’m not sure what the fuss is about. Just sounds like people looking for an excuse to rag on AMD 🤷

I bought a new rx6600 like2 weeks ago. It still gets regular updates and is the best card for the money if u want to play any modern titles without spending over 200 on a GPU. And has stated that in maintinence mode these cards will still get day zero game updates, their just focusing new features on their newer cards with newer architecture…

There don’t have to be laws for terrorism, it’s a free hall pass for the powers that be. And they get to determine who the terrorists are, which is basically anybody they don’t like or disagree with them.

Lol no kidding. All my friends complaining about the outage are in ri/ ma, I’m in VT. Not sure if I’m on the same servers as the rest of east coast? Don’t even know how to check honestly.
