As Ubuntu embraces AI, Debian discusses banning all AI-generated code in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] 2 points 2 months ago (1 child)

Whilst FreeCAD certainly doesn't have feature parity with things like Creo, I firmly believe it is good enough for most people. I switched to only using that for all my contract work and personal projects and it's generally been fine

    I've been using a fairphone 6 since it came out and honestly been really enjoying it. There are only two issues that I can think of. One is the placement of the volume buttons, they're in a really dumb place which causes you to do accidental screenshots. You do get used to it over time so they become less frequent, but still happens sometimes. The other issue is an IPv6 issue that a few Android phones have, it only causes issues for a few applications on certain WiFi networks and can be gotten around by just turning on a VPN and going through that, but again it's still worth being aware of. The position of volume buttons obviously won't change, but hopefully someone will fix the Android network stack so that the IPv6 issues are sorted.

    Can't Access slrpnk.net (slrpnk.net)
     

    Recently I started being unable to access slrpnk.net via Thunder. I thought maybe the servers were just down, as I can still access lemmy.world through Thunder. Today I decided to check slrpnk.net in my browser just to check and it works fine (I'm positing this from it now), but I still can not access it through Thunder.

    Does anyone else have this issue?

    RepRap (reprap.org)
     

    RepRap is a project about democratising and decentralising manufacturing through low-cost open source 3D printers.

    3D printers give communities the ability to repair items even when official replacement parts don't exist. They also allow people to produce small runs of custom parts, where more traditional manufacturing methods may be wasteful.

    There are obviously issues with sustainability in the 3D printing community, primarily with material source, material recycling/composting, and waste. But even with these current issues, 3D printers provide a lot of utility and may have a place in our solarpunk future.

    Amybo: Open Source Protein (amybo.org)
     

    Amybo is a non-profit open source community project working on protein fermentation in an effort to reduce the carbon intensity of food production, as well as improve climate resilience as things like crop failures become more common.

    The project is currently focussed on the low-cost distributed science aspect, but their website says they want biotechnologists, chefs, coders, creatives, engineers, enthusiasts, environmentalists, makers, medics, microbiologists, and nutritionists. So basically... Just lots of people.

    They're still in the early stages but looks like a fun project to get involved in.
