Yeah Fusion is the way to go, especially if you are learning. Lots of hate for it around here, due to Autodesk endlessly changing their policies. But there's no point in learning the basics when you don't know if it's you... or the software.
But if your issue is just navigating the 3D space in FreeCAD, you can set it such that it's the same in TinkerCAD/Fusion 360. FreeCAD calls it Revit, and you can set it in the lower right corner. Hold you mouse over it to show tool tips.
In my view CAD is always worth learning, especially if you understand what prints best on your printer.
FreeCAD is basically the worse possible beginners tools. Don't get me wrong when you learn it, it's good and comparable to professional CAD software. But the learning curve is dumb.
Learn the basics first. TinkerCAD is free (from Autodesk) and will get you started. But if you want something which would take you further Fusion360 is fantastic for beginners.
The workflow of CAD is as follows. Sketch -> Action -> Sketch -> Action. Lets say you want to make a box with a hole in it. Sketch the outer box -> Extrude it -> Sketch the inner box -> Extrude/Cut it.
BluRay is just a data format. PS3 games are just encrypted, which means with a modded PS3 you can back it up.
Same process in order to play it on RCPS3
PS2/PS1 throw it into a DVD player Ron a PC and rip it.
PS3 you'd need to homebrew it. Same process to get the files ready to play on RCPS3
lol, now that sounds fun.
This is a game from 2007, I doubt there are new/replacement discs. That said it appears to be functional so we'll see.
While for the most part this kind of damage is fine (this game is playable), it's questionable for how much longer. If you have the hardware or the capability, always remember to back up your physical games.
Don’t vote, don’t get to complain.
Not saying that you have to vote when you dislike the options given. But you do have other options. Like spoiling your ballot, or nullify your ballot.
Yes the results are the same, but by voting this way, you are actively participating in your democratic process. While not voting at all you are not. And if you do not participate, in my view, you cannot complain about the results.
Oh and if you don’t know how, on election day just ask the poll workers. They should’ve been trained on how to handle it.
Yeah, we'll see. I presume it'll be fine... Or cool enough not to melt the PLA
… usually comments like this imply I goofed on spelling, but I can’t see which word it was. Can you point it out to me plz?
So my trusty USB-C Dongle which I use to connect my switch to a TV on the road is dying. The cable has frayed and I don't want to touch it any more.
So I decided to turn it into a USB-C Hub... basically give it a shell to hide away the cable.
Designed the part in FreeCAD in 30 min, and BOOM
Needed to do a bit of a redesign after the first print, what you see here is the V2. The Lid slides on and the USB-C to C female connector is slotted in. Needed to heat it up to get it to fit.
But I am very pleased with the design. Works well (now the slots are bigger. And I can safely throw it into a bag without risk of self destruction.
Sure I do need more cables but this also means I can upgrade/replace cables when they ware down.
5/7 would recommend!
While I can see why there’s a lot of doubt I can see one reason they would.
For years now Apple has been moving things in house, like moving from Intel to their own designs and chips. And moving away from Snapdragon to their own modems.
If they wanted to buy intel it would be for their fab capabilities to reduce their reliance on TSMC.
Do I think they will… probably not, but as I said, I can see why they would.
When I was in Uni, we had the opportunity to apply for co-op at Black Berry when they still made phones with their own OS.
I was getting into mobile dev at this time and applied and got an interview.
I didn't know what I was expecting but what I got was a 10-20min sales pitch for their phone and I wasn't asked a question... I don't think. From what I gathered afterwards they just wanted to hire/rehire one guy and had to interview others to be in the co-op program.
Believe it or not I wasn't sold on black berry after that.
TL:DR, made some Icons for 3D Models, turned them into a banner for social media, liked it so I made it into this wallpaper.
So over the years I've made various icons for controllers and systems for my 3D Printable Display Stands. These Icon and cut into the model to know which part belongs together.
Anyways I needed a new Banner on YouTube so I took them, threw them into Inkscape and turn it into this.
I am very pleased with the results, and kind of wished I had more icons to make it more detailed.
So why did I even want to do this? Because the front panel of my PC has a 3 1/2" drive hole and I wanted to populate it.
Fine, real reason is because I have a few legacy machine lying around and having a floppy drive accessible is nice to have.
How does it work? Well I have a Floppy to USB adapter inside my rig, and since my motherboard has an unused set of USB 2 headers, I just plugged it into that.
Otherwise, it was just plug and play... almost.
Why the drive works as Plug and Play, linux mint pokes the USB to see if it's still there, so I have a small script at boot that disables it for that internal header.
I am just socked that it works, and while it sucks that I need to be root to read the disks, I am just happy that the whole setup works at all.
H1_SD is the name of a MicroSD card I'm connecting, it does connect a second later, but it's annoying to keep dismissing this error every time. I am also getting it with regular SD cards and USB Drives regardless on which USB Port I've connected it to, and which format it's been partitioned too. NTFS, exfat, fat all respond similarly.
EDIT Welp, I was able to brute force a "fix". There appeared to be an issue with the Nemo configuration between 21 and 22. Not sure what the issue was specifically, but deleting the users ~/.config/nemo and a reboot fixed it for me.
This is the Ultimate HD version on Vita, and man it has been my goto for just relaxing strategy games. I just wished it explained the controller better, like pressing Square to drop bombs if you have 5 gems.
It's available on Steam and I can only image how good it'll be on a Steam Deck, as the game was fantastic on the Vita and PSP.
The commercial alternative to blender is software like Maya. But I too struggled with Blender, however I feel that's because 3D modelling is different from CAD, since modelling is like molding clay into the shape you want it in, rather than accurately measuring it out like in CAD.
