I'm amazed at FreeCAD's abilities. It needs a better name. Thinking of it as simply "cad software" like calling a 2-GHz computer in your pocket a "phone".

  • I don't mean to poo poo FreeCAD the way I say this, but the vast majority of those features listed are bog-standard cad suite features at least by modern standards.

    I'd love to see a FOSS cad suite kill my personal dependency on proprietary solutions, but as best I'm aware the UX is still hugely lacking.

  • SCUBA, LASER, JPEG, ROM, etc. all break the "pronounced as the nested word" argument.

    I'm down for people to pronounce it however they please (assuming it's recognizable as gif), but the post-hoc rationalizations trying to prove their side as the one true pronunciation are silly. The only rationalization that makes any sense to me is the "creator pronounces it as jif", but language doesn't work that way so even that doesn't matter as far as "one true pronunciation" goes.

    • If LED bulbs are supposed to last for 10 years, why do I still need to replace them every 9 months?

  • The LEDs don't particularly (unless it's a very powerful one), their power supply does though. LEDs run on DC voltage, so they need a converter from the AC line voltage to not die instantly

  • It only affected key start cars, if it was push button start, it was immune to the attack you describe.

  • On that same vein, recipes where you have the same ingredient going to multiple places irritate me when they don't specify quantity in the main recipe, but only in the ingredients list.

    For example if the ingredients are 2 cups of soy sauce, 1.5 cups for sauce, 0.5 cups for marinade, I want the recipe to say "add soy sauce to marinade (0.5 cups)" or something like that not, "add soy sauce to marinade" or "add remainder of soy sauce to marinade".

    Remainder could work if a very recent instruction says something to the effect of "measure 2 cups of soy sauce, add 1.5 cups to sauce" so there is a remainder to add, not just "lol add the rest idiot"
