I wish they’d add lofting. That would make it more versatile than it is now. Otherwise I really like how it is made.

The addon Tree style tabs itself shouldn’t have been the problem, or was it? It’s hiding the default tabs what’s not a smooth process for me.

I got it work too but wouldn’t call it easy. My process involves going to about:config to enable some variable that has a super long name. Then find out where the profiles are saved and remember not to use the “cached” directory version which I always end up on first. Then selecting one of the cryptic profile names and creating some specific directory structure and copying or linking (but no soft linking) my config there.

A simple checkbox in the settings would be nice, or another browser extension. Or is there an easier process?

If only it was easier to remove the default tabs from firefox so you don’t have duplicate tabs. I recently had problems getting the userCSS to do its thing, trying different directories. In the end the problem however was that I tried to link it with a symbolic link which for some reason doesn’t work.

Soem years ago I played a few hundred hours of Terraria and was always surprised how much enjoyment you could get out of the ~ 30 MB that it was when installed. Don’t know about it today though since it has received quite a few updates since then.

We were on holiday at a camp ground when I was child. I had my Nintendo DS with me and I think during this vacation I even bought a carrying case and some games for it with my own money. During the day we would ride bycicles to other places so I left it in the tent buried under some stuff. One day when we came back i could not find it. At first I thought it could be stolen or my dad tried to hide it from me, because I played with it quite a lot which he wasn’ta fan of. So I tried to look through his stuff without him noticing to find it. But i didn’t find it and since i am quite reserved i didnt want to bring it up that it was missing.

In the end I think someone at that camp ground must have seen me use it and then waited for us to leave to steal it, since nothing else was stolen.

After that every time someone asked me why I wasn’t playing as much as before I told them that I didn’t feel like it. And I’m not sure whether they figured it out to this day.

I think that is a very negative view on Germany and Europe that comes mainly from reading too many news. The media always report when something goes wrong, but rarely if something is working right.

One example: passenger aircraft. Boeing is struggling and China does not seem to be able to make the strong impact that was theorised. Europe is the global powerhouse in that regime. And especially Germany is really strong in a lot of areas that dont make the news regularly.

Also look at the transition to renewable energy in the last decade alone. We have a lot of ideas for the future, just not decided what we should do on a big scale.

Tech is just a market where the circumstances in the US and China with their huge domestic markets produce the biggest companies. Europe will probably always lack behind in that.

Europe is in a transition period right now into the 21st century. But both China and the US also have internal problems that will hold them back in the future.

Honestly this is probably how I subconciously felt on reddit for maybe a few years before I left. In all the slightly larger subreddits you could mostly predict how the comment section would look like. Mostly the same jokes and the same answers. The best posts also felt like they were made by people who put in a lot of time to figure out how to get to the frontpage and once you yourself made a post it would mostly be removed for some reason or buried. On Lemmy it is also much easier to see other opinions that are not directly downvoted into oblivion but rather discussed and as long as the person does not behave like an idiot the discussion is interesting.

Evince (the standard GNOME pdf reader) has night mode that you can toggle with “Ctrl + i” by default.

Mont-Saint-Michel definitely was a special place. Already driving up to it and seeing it from a distance was surreal and then walking through this tightly packed place seemingly in the middle of the sea is unlike anything else.

I was very active on Reddit for a long time but for some reason I also don’t miss it. I think it’s because the big subreddits felt “too big” for quite some time before and even in the smaller subreddits there was often too much unnecessary negativity.

What are those shortcomings?

With that username I totally believe you wish for nothing more.

I also try to get along with a small amount of software and I also mainly stick with default configurations. It is a great feeling when setting up a new PC or a device that there is little need to install a bunch of software and mess with a lot of configurations just to get my learned workflow up and running. Therefore there also isn’t really a need to follow new software releases.

I guess it could be that it’s easier to build. You have a tower that only gives structural support and you have a gondola that only deals with all the rotation. In general it is difficult to have something that rotates and also carries a large load. And the rotating gondola technology is a solved problem. Plus you have a large rotor area that is always facing the wind instead of half your blade area going opposite to the wind. These are just guesses though.

I guess you mainly use Autocad for creating 2D sketches? Maybe Inkscape could already be enough for that. It’s not really made for engineering stuff but you can add plugins to add dimensions for example and make accurate drawings relatively easily.

It was an great moment when I learned that bangs exist. I only use two or three but it’s still amazing.

I use the progressive web app version and it’s all I need. the only thing i dont like is that you can no longer pull down on a post to refresh the comments. some time ago this worked but it doesn’t anymore.

it’s definitely harder than it may seem in videos. but I’ve seen people getting the hang of it in a few sessions in the sim. I’d say it you’re okay at flying in the simulator and close to actually buying a real done you could get FPV goggles and practice some more with them. it all depends on how determined you are too get into the hobby.

If you’re new to FPV flying and unsure I can recommend getting the controller first and practicing in a simulator. it will save you a lot of money since your first crashes won’t cost anything.
