What a fucking leap. CLI does not equal complexity.

If you can write and read, you can use a CLI. Can you read and write? Great, you can learn CLI cmds.

People don’t want to use CLIs because unless you’ve been using computers before windows 95, chances are that all your life you’ve been using a GUI, and humans in general don’t like changes.

Going from Windows to any Linux distro is a big enough leap, and adding a new way to interact with your tool on top of that is too much at once for the vast majority of people.

With that said, a lot of Windows issues require you to use the CLI and mess with regedit to fix them. How is that any different than asking people to run a diagnostic command to troubleshoot their PC?

You can use a Linux distro through a GUI pretty much 99.9% of the time, just like Windows. The only difference is that on Linux, the CLI is much more powerful than the GUI, so the majority of users will use the CLI to troubleshoot.

Yeah, but regedit is a GUI. So it’s all cool and dandy.

I’d say that the nazi salute on live tv sealed the deal.

If it looks like a Nazi and squeak like a Nazi, it’s a fucking Nazi.

Who are you targeting with that message? Because what’s going on with the current US admin is straight out of the nazi playbook.

It feels like you are trying to get validation for your position.

I use it to generate a little function in a programming language I don’t know so that I can kickstart what I need to look for.

I swapped my nozzle for an after market one, changed the heatsink as well on my K1.

I haven’t changed the my mobo on it, but I know there is a m5p mobo that can be swapped.

K1C is open sourced as far as I can tell. But I am not sure what you are asking here?

Someone has created a custom firmware for the X1C, but that’s pretty much it.

K2 isn’t open sourced, but it can still be rooted and you can use Fluidd or mainsail.

So Creality sucks for not open sourcing the k2 firmware, but it’s not the same level of shittiness as Bambu Lab

How is Creality equally proprietary? I can put mainsail or fluidd on the machine and use any slicer I so choose.

I much prefer using the terminal than the GUI if I can.

But I understand that not everyone likes the terminal.

To be fair, I couldn’t tell you how to run my file manager as root from the GUI because I don’t use it that much.

You don’t see how terrible Windows is until you’ve switched to another OS and need to interact with it again.

The constant pop-ups, the ads everywhere, the settings hidden away.

It really feels like your PC isn’t yours.

It forces you to be patient. You fit the bill

Pay to play baby! Let’s reinvent the banking system by doing the same exact shit.

IMO, GPU prices have an impact. Modern gaming has a bad habit of not optimizing games relying on people getting newer GPUs for performance.

Mix that with the pre-order/early access monetization, and we are to a point where games have made their money before release, and beans counters don’t want to put money in QA because there is no quantifiable ROI (there is a ROI, but it is hard to quantify), which is a no-no in their world.

Indie games have a tendancy to be less GPU demanding, and thus, usually have a better performance experience

No please. Use a password manager with randomly generated usernames when possible.

Yeah my own creation are usually really blocky because I am lazy and I just need something fonctional haha

I never go that far in my projects, when are you using Minkowski transformations?

That’s a great point. OpenSCAD is lightweight and FOSS so it is a lot easier to share than Fusion360 for example

You can do parametric design in other CAD software, but openscad, being a coding software, lends itself particularly well for that.

In my experience doing parametric design in Fusion360 is a lot more tedious than in OpenSCAD.

Yeah and like anything getting big, here we are, Discord trying to go public and fuck everything over. The cow is fat enough to be milked then butchered until it’s nothing but bones and scraps.

It’s so long ago that my memory might fail me. Skype didn’t need a hosted server and that made it accessible.
