FreeCAD isn't the worst and has the ability to output several file formats. But it's definitely wonky and probably not up to the task if that's like your actual job or whatever. I don't know your scenario, but you might check it out if you're still using CAD. It is free.

But yeah, in general, required software is the big hiccup.

I'm saying that if he wants to be a leader he needs to do the work to lead. There was a series of thoughts in the comment above. You're only replying to part of the comment, but the rest of the comment was important too.

Hey dickhole, educate your damn self. What the fuck are you president of anything for if you can't even lead yourself to a fresh thought?

If you can't do it, which you seem to be admitting here, and you need a woman to lead you to the correct way of thinking, step down and let a woman do the leading from the office of FIFA President. Maybe if you ask nicely and show a willingness to learn, she'll hire you as a secretary or something, but only if you remember to smile.

"I tried finding a study but everything I found was paywalled."

Fucking priceless. The entire conversation in a single throw away line. Well done. 👏

Respectfully but strongly disagree. If people's survival requires constantly competing in scenarios that favor sociopathic actions and outright sociopaths while also repeatedly discarding kindness and devaluing communal activity in general the outcome is the same.

While you are right that the people at their cores might not be sociopathic and may be very uncomfortable and unhappy with the way they've become required to live their lives, the resulting society becomes as if it were entirely inhabited by sociopaths.

You can definitely condition people into acting entirely in their own self interest in the public sphere. And, unfettered capitalism is undeniably very effective at doing this. In fact, it's arguable that governments worldwide have been trying to regulate against this with almost no effect. I think the global climate emergency is an excellent example, though far from the only one. It's more the sum total of all humanities failures at this very thing.

Remember: Workers make the machinery. Then, workers use the machinery to make more things. It may be different workers at different stages, but workers are the only means of production. Everything is produced by someone working to do so.

They did San Jose and Sacramento like that, too. Destroyed the waterfronts and huge neighborhoods.

RIP.... This is tragic and unbelievably criminal. The FBI should absolutely be involved at this point. That whole police department needs to be held responsible.

That's some crazy bullshit. If there was any justice at all the FBI would show up, arrest the police force responsible and return the stolen property. But we all know none of that is going to happen.
