  • breaks down much more quickly and leaves no residual trace

    The plastic is non-toxic, non-flammable, and does not emit carbon dioxide, he added.

    What does it dissolve into then? Plastics are full of carbon usually. If it leaves no trace (my interpretation: no solids, especially no microplastics) in the sea water, I would expect it to dissolve into some kind of gas. But gasified carbon very much sounds like carbon dioxide (or worse stuff like methane).

    Furthermore, if it doesn’t need to be water-resistant, why use plastics at all and not paper or - if it’s meant to be transparent and foil-like use cellophan (cellulose hydrate)?



  • Unfortunately I don’t know about the availability in the Netherlands but you could also check… https://www.tempehmanufaktur.net/de/faq/

    Wir verwenden nur sorgfältig ausgewählte Bio-Rohwaren für die Tempeh-Herstellung. Regionalität und höchste Bio-Qualität ist uns dabei sehr wichtig. Die Sojabohnen für unseren Tempeh stammen von Anbauflächen in Deutschland, Österreich und Italien. Die Süß-Lupinen beziehen wir zum Großteil von Landwirten aus Deutschland. Auch die schwarzen Bohnen kaufen wir so regional wie möglich. Deshalb sind in engem Kontakt mit Landwirten aus der Region, die Anbauversuche mit der Schwarzen Bohne machen. Wir sind sehr stolz darauf, dass wir bereits jetzt einen Teil der benötigten Ware aus regionaler Landwirtschaft beziehen können. Die Berglinsen stammen ebenfalls aus heimischem Anbau.

    Translation:

    We only use carefully selected organic raw materials for tempeh production. Regionality and the highest organic quality are very important to us. The soybeans for our tempeh come from farms in Germany, Austria and Italy. We source most of the sweet lupins from farmers in Germany. We also buy the black beans as regionally as possible. That is why we are in close contact with farmers from the region who are conducting cultivation trials with black beans. We are very proud that we are already able to source some of the goods we need from regional farmers. The mountain lentils also come from local cultivation.



  • Okay, that’s strange. When you say workstations, I assume that you had pretty decent hardware and probably more powerful than my consumer notebook. I usually don’t notice lags or load times > 1 second. If I do a complex operation like mass-cloning an object via a polar pattern, I have to wait for 2 or 3 seconds but really nothing that bothered me in the workflow. Definitely never anything close to a minute as you described.

    If you want to give FreeCAD another chance one day and still experience the same issues, maybe bring it up in the official forums. The experts there might have an idea what could be wrong.


  • I never had these kind of performance issues at all. I use it on three different ThinkPads, all not too bad but also no crazy hardware. The cheapest should be an E14 with a AMD 5500U and 16 GB of RAM that was around 500€ 4 years ago.

    Isn’t Fusion360 cloud-based? If so, it doesn’t make too much sense to compare the performance on a certain hardware.


  • I currently switch a lot between FreeCAD and Sims. When I brainstorm with my girlfriend we either use a simple drawing programm or Sims. Then, once we aligned on an idea, I use FreeCAD to bring in accuracy. Quite often then the original ideas don’t work out because of wall thickness, window placement etc.






  • Trump does not require any justification for his behavior.

    Trump needs a certain level of support from the general public. If he sends the army in face of peaceful protestors, he sets that support at risk. But if the news show videos of protestors looting and setting random stuff on fire, the audience is much more likely to believe his narrative and support his actions.

    A riot is the language of the unheard.

    When it comes to violence, I always try to take the perspective of my political opponents. I see myself as pretty left leaning but in a democracy I have to accept that there are also different opinions on how a society should work.

    That does not mean that I see all right wing concepts and ideas as acceptable and if a conservative person wants to be respected by me, I expect them to also draw a line and distance themselves from the radical, far-right extremists. If a conservative person supports right wing violence, that’s an absolute no go for me.

    But likewise, if I want my opinion to be respected by moderate conservatives, I have to distance myself from protest forms I don’t support. And if people randomly destroy foreign property that is not at all related to the protest, I just can’t get behind that. If I then keep protesting along such people, but condemn others when they just look away or go away from far-right extremists, as recommended here for a left-leaning protest, that’s double standards for me.

    I don’t know how to feel about that.

    I think there definitely are forms of protest that objectively just hurt any movement. A few people looting stores, setting random stuff on fire and most forms of violence will make the whole crowd appear violent and scare off the general public. If you protest against Trump and then steal stuff from a local store, the vast majority will neither see that as related to Trump nor as an acceptable form of protest. Less people will protest and, more importantly, Trump can use the videos etc. to justify his behavior.





  • For collaboration with others, I’d need to expose my self-hosted services to the internet which then leads to a high maintenance effort with patches, updates etc. to avoid attackers from accessing my data and network.

    And even without the collaboration aspect, if I kept it in my intranet only, I’d need to permanently use a VPN to access my data. Which may be problematic as well when using a weak mobile network or if I need another VPN in parallel to access stuff in another network.

    For a certain level of security and privacy, I personally prefer public cloud solutions where I can just use a service without too much effort.

    I’m with you, but it’s very hard to find a consensus on what is work and what isn’t. What if someone decides to be a musician who makes music that no one else wants to listen to? What if someone wants to build sand castles in Antarctica? What if someone wants to be a landlord or a CEO? If you asked landlords or CEOs in today’s system, I’m pretty sure they’ll see themselves as (hard) working people which probably many folks in this community would object.

    I think in capitalism and socialism you have contributers and profiteers. IMHO, the difference isn’t about people working for others or not, but the level of inequality.

    PS: Don’t get me wrong. I’m not arguing against socialism, but specifically against the point in the meme.
