I would be willing to put money on "likely nothing" being the answer for active nuclear reactors. They're highly automated from a safety perspective these days. I'd be more worried about chemical plants

fuck me where do you live that it's $3200/mo for 500 sq ft?? San Francisco?

yeah and good luck getting a case with multiple USB-C front panel. I don't even think I've EVER used the USB-A on the front of my case

sure, but some people are already in a position where they already have only USB-C (me). I have adapters for the USB-A ports and it sucks. Just let me choose to get rid of the old shit that I don't need please

lmao people act like they can't comprehend that we haven't solved all physics yet

what? didn't he start SpaceX because Russia WOULDN'T take his money?

Well, first off I wasn't presenting a "FOSS first" argument here. Onshape is a closed-source browser based CAD software but it works really well and I enjoy it. PrusaSlicer IS FOSS, but it is developed by the folks at Prusa who build the Prusa i3 printers - it is widely considered to be the "standard" for 3D printing slicers, better than CURA for sure.

Second off, this argument has an element of truth but kind of misses the plot. It is DEFINITELY possible for FOSS to be better and widely used and there are a couple of examples. I don't have a ton of time right now but just for fun I'll list a few. Blender is a great one, don't really need to explain how good it is. Also, KiCAD is really good these days too, second only to Altium. There are many more as well!

To be fair, PrusaSlicer and its derivatives do have native Linux support. And you can use Onshape from the browser on Linux just fine and it is honestly really good. I do a lot of this stuff too

I like it

most users simply do not care. if it works, it works

I think Fedora and Ubuntu are easy recommendations!

also lifting that stupid ban on other browser engines, and I'd like to see the ability to change more default app stuff

Why don't you program the curve in the BIOS?

Amazon's Fire devices already have this, they don't use Android with Google, they use the fully open source version. They can collect any data they want already

this is why r/Android moved to !android@lemdro.id. We even made our own instance dedicated to technical content. The reason most people I've been around mod is because they want to either fix a perceived quality problem or maintain a community that they enjoy frequenting.

I'll have to decide what ad free YouTube is worth to ms

that's like a 50% price increase, we'll see how I feel when it actually hits

reeeeeeeeee. I'm probably fine with $12/mo if that's the new price. but if they raise it again in the next 5 years I'm out

yeah that one's hard to get. Gotta go camp out at their factory sometimes and they limit you to once every 6 months!!

no, that's ridiculous. Would be too expensive
