I looked at the other articles on the site and that already caused some red flags. Then looked at the wiki and saw the same thing.

According to the LibreCAD website, it is open source.

Bought a New 2DS XL for my oldest son when he turned 9. Bought a second one for myself not long after. They were cheap secondhand, so it was a quick decision. I love the games and I used to play on my commute. Now it is mostly played on by my youngest. We’ve got a shit load of games, most also bought secondhand. And they still play on them anytime we go for a long drive! It is definitely the best system I’ve owned. Massive bang for buck.

What an insightful comment. This kind of distinction between what is really going on, can help people suffering like OP.

@noctisatrae@beehaw.org, the suicidal thoughts are an indication you’re feeling stuck. Know there are always options, even if you don’t see them right now or are sure there aren’t any. Talk to people, like you’ve done here, and eventually you’ll find a new direction. Bringing it up here already is a great step, I’m impressed you’ve done that.

LOL. The second one sounds awfully familiar. Not with Windows, but I’ve had my own cases where I didn’t read before breaking. How did it work out in the end?

That sounds really sweet. Good for them if they found each other. How long ago did your mom pass?

This is more of an internal conversation, so I can totally see why this topic coming up yet again is a bit much for the rest of the fediverse. I have to admit, reading your comment made laugh though, thanks for that.

The behavioral expectations of Beehaw are a lot like those of tildes.net, where I’m also a member. Although I thoroughly enjoy the conversations there, I also long for other types of content, content available in the fediverse. And Beehaw is, for me, the perfect place to access that content. Beehaw has a great community that generates good content and conversations, but it also allows me to browse other stuff from ‘all’ and interact with different people. I enjoy reading what other people think, even if they have a way of communicating that doesn’t jive all that well with the rest of Beehaw.

What I can imagine is that moderating Beehaw within the context of the fediverse is a pain in the ass. The burden on the admin and moderator team must be a lot bigger than if Beehaw was on its own.

Yeah what’s up with that?! My new car comes with a host of connection possibilities, but lacks a simple jack. I still use that 5th gen iPod, is it too much to ask for a connector?

[-] Caliper@beehaw.org 3 points 9 months ago

I know all that, the point is modern infotainments do way more than just play music. Look, I wish it was different, but most cars built today have controls in the infotainment that you can’t have anywhere else. Like very specific settings for interior and exterior lighting, consumption metrics, creature comforts, just to name a few. That’s not a simple case of getting the wires correctly installed like it was before. And good luck finding just the right car with a dumb head unit, even simple cars today are fitted with this stuff.

I highly doubt an aftermarket unit will work. Today, most units are integrated into the entire car system. Removing the unit from my car would mean losing access to a lot of functionality. I doubt the car would even accept a 3rd party unit. And this is not a Tesla.
