Genuinely surprised to see this exists, SOLIDWORKS seems to always be in the same “hard no” category as Adobe software in every one of these kinds of threads I’ve seen over the years. This is literally the first time I’ve ever seen a response with a potential solution.
I wonder how well it works (Just out of curiosity, I don’t do CAD myself)
I’m glad it went the way it did, because otherwise I’d be suggesting you get clumsy with your next coffee
Big tech in 2025 makes its money from invading privacy and there’s an increasing demographic of users that don’t see any value in protecting their data from harvesting for some reason
You only have to look at a company like proton who provide a pretty comprehensive suite of privacy focussed software, and yet they’re still very much a niche player in the wider tech industry
The reason is greed, wealth facilitates the accumulation of more wealth.
Significant wealth needs to be taxed asap or the next generation will know nothing but perpetual poverty from birth until death.
Vision is the opposite of blindness, no?
Surely if the spectrum exists for one it must exist for the other?
0 becomes 100 and 100 becomes zero
0% blind is perfect vision, 100% blind is no vision
Surely vision is a spectrum with everyone on it.
One end “better than 20-20” on the other “only darkness”
If it is a computer, it is compatible
You may just need some extra bits in addition to the base ISO
IIRC the Broadcom website has the latest Linux drivers on there if the kernel doesn’t support it out of the box, so grab a copy of those and put them on a USB.
As others have said, you could get a live distro to test it out before you install
All of them, it’s a matryoshka doll situation
If I’ve ever got enough of a variety of cheese in my fridge, such that I could throw together a decent cheeseboard at a moment’s notice, I think that’s when I feel my most decadent
If I’ve got multiple chutneys and some grapes too? I might as well be aristocracy
Well yes, that’s why people do drugs.
Usually doing it forever runs up against other problems like paying for it, holding down a job or health problems
Tinnitus means noise cancelling on its own just makes the whine louder
Enough background noise and it kinda disappears
It would have to be parabolic and yeah as you suggest you would either need a big robotic rig to aim it or you would have to be very very obvious with your intent to damage given there’s pretty much only one specific place a given parabolic mirror can be to damage something else.
What you describe is simply not possible with a passive material. Funnily your example of something shooting lasers is probably the only thing that could come close to actual damage
The most you can do is one of those adversarial patterns that just confuses the white balance and autofocus. There is nothing you can do to affect someone shooting in manual mode
If you could damage a camera by pointing it at something, the manufacturer would fix the issue before selling it, because no one is buying a camera that does.
I think I’ve seen software swaps for the actual presses in most situations where I’d want to.
I think the only time I consider doing something is when I’m playing a Nintendo game on non Nintendo hardware, so my MiSTer or on retroarch and both support swapping Nintendo to western style. If I’m holding a Nintendo controller, muscle memory makes it not really a problem for me at least
If you mean the actual physical buttons, I’d just say blank buttons are better than labelled ones in general, most popular controllers have blank mods that are pretty easy to do if you have a screwdriver with the appropriate bit.
I don’t really see any reason to not use the default yellow, frankly
You need to enter the Highland games with strength like that
By all means try it out, it might have been something down to the drivers for my audio interface (focusrite scarlett) at the time
If you have better luck than I did, I’d love to know!
Can’t comment on everything, but given you mentioned audio production: a couple of years ago I tried to get ASIO working from within a VM on a Linux host OS and wasn’t having a whole lot of luck.
I think I read somewhere that someone had come up with a special ASIO driver to send the audio directly into the host Linux OS audio subsystem, but I’ve not tried that or measured latency yet.

Are you in Arizona? (looked again and it gave Alaska, not sure what’s going on there)
Spike in the past week or so of interest for some reason. Perhaps it has come up somewhere else recently to prime you to discuss it with your friends.
Security researchers have been looking hard for any proof of this for decades now. Humans are just super predictable even when it feels like what we do is completely random.
Yep that’s exactly it, it’s hard to convince people to pay for any service on the internet, let alone for something like privacy that many users have been conditioned to not value at all.
