Gadgetbridge is pretty good as an alternative if it supports your watch.

My Lemmy instance admin apparently is also a home assistant contributor. Cool!
OK, so how will blocking google services and Microsoft work when all of our banks rely on google services for their apps, all of our companies run on Microsoft tools and cloud services, and the fact that most of the population uses messenger or whatsapp?
Great step, but will it be enforced? What can our government do against companies with revenue half of our GDP?
I would be interested in how things like MATLAB and octave compare to R and python. But I guess it doesn't matter as much because the relative time of those being run in a data analysis or research context is probably relatively low compared to production code.
Lentils in a hundred ways, in pasta sauces, as an alternative for rice, black lentils for burgers, black or green lentils simply boiled, salted (halfway through cooking) and seasoned well. Your gut will thank you and its iron and protein is very high, and super cheap.
Just get tons of different veggie + meat (or meat alternative) combos (potatoes are also a high satiating index if you are trying to cut. 400g of boiled potatoes is a fuck ton of food for 350 calories)
-
Salmon + any light, roasted veggie (asparagus, carrots and parsley, broccolini, etc..)
-
roasted veggies in general: beets, filled courgette boats, filled peppers, carrots, cauliflower (harissa paste and smoked paprika marinades are amazing on cauliflower), etc..
-
mushroom pasta: sauteed mushrooms (first sweating them on high heat) with your choice of other protein, take out when ready and make a white wine, cream, and shallot/red onion sauce with some chickpea pasta or other higher protein alternative
-
shakshuka: essentially egg, tomato, and onions that can be used as a sauce for meat or supplemented with chickpeas and used with bread as a dip
-
legume meal dips: e.g. red lentil dip: cook onion in olive oil, add garlic, add spices: cumin, coriander, chili powder, paprika, turmeric, bay leaves, pepper, tomato paste and cook for a minute, then add a can of tomato pieces, 250g red lentils, a can of chickpeas, and half a liter of your choice of stock, simmer for 15-20 minutes and add 30-50g of nutritional yeast. This is insanely good and has tons of protein, fiber, and minerals and you can supplement with additional proteins like chicken and dip with bread, tortillas, naan, or just rawdog it with a fork. There are also tons of variations with different veggies and spice combinations ) like a spinach variant that is great) Soph's Plant Kitchen on Instagram has a bunch of these type of recipes, you can always supplement with meat if that's your thing.
-
Spanakopita: easy, filling, and goes with a lot of red meats like lamb, beef, etc... Phyllo dough then add leafy veggies like spinich and arugula and leek cooked down in a pot for 10 minutes or so with feta and boiled quinoa or boiled bulgur added and then lay out the dough in a baking dish in alternating directions: 4 layers, filling mix, 4 layers, brush with oil on top, trim edges, bake, done and you have a side dish for a week.
You can honestly take a ton of recipes and just tweak them to make them healthier. Learning to cook and learning to use spices is like the #1 life skill and makes fitness diets a lot more interesting and tasty.
True, but I have never seen an ECAD software that has implemented that because that opens up a whole other can of buggy worms of intentionally trying to connect nets and guessing the intention of the user. When do you push the net and when do you merge the net? Does dragging a net label connected to a net to intentionally attach it to a second net to connect the two not work due to pushing? When do you decide when dragging a net is an intentional connection vs not during the drag? When you drag a component, do all nets and connected components get dragged with it or do they push each other into a jumbled mess of traces jumping over each other like what sometimes happens with push behavior in layout routing? I think it is a pretty difficult problem to solve.
That's why I personally like KiCAD's choice just to not pull nets with component moving, but to each their own.
Nope, I mean in schematics. You can absolutely short two lines together. It will just silently merge them into a single net so it won't show up in ERC. If you have an IC with 8 pins on each schematic symbol side in altium and drag the component one unit down, 7 and 7 pins will be shorted together (as an example) silently and become two nets.
As far as footprints:
You don't technically need to, but altium's spaghetti code makes things break so often and my company had some troubles with that so they recommend making a duplicate every time.
Not to mention that searching for the correct footprint is accomplished 3 different ways and each way is partially or fully broken so you pretty much need the exact sequential footprint symbol number to sort and scroll all the way to find it. It is horrific. No organization at all.
We get a lot of advertising for it here in Belgium and tons of webshops support it, sadly. What a trash company.
That is true.
However, the alternative is altium behavior where it drags all of the wire connections with you, so if you move anything attached to an IC or the IC itself, you get dozens of shorts immediately.
They both have pros and cons. I actually prefer kicad's way because it will never lead to unintended un-ERC-discoverable shorts.
I have used both KiCAD and Altium regularly for years and there are many things that KiCAD simply does better but it is missing a ton of QoL things.
The one thing that I don't like about KiCAD is that some shortcuts don't have an alternative right click or toolbar menu item, which makes them undiscoverable unless you browse shortcuts.
I really like librePCBs approach to library management. Multiple pinouts for schematic symbols (meaning a BGA and QFN can have the same library item) and the categorization.
Though I can't tell if they have reusable footprints and are able to simply reference them to a schematic symbol which is one of the nice things in KiCAD over altium
Some people need the space if they don't live in a city and have lots of children or dogs or tools and then an electric SUV is much better than a ICE van or truck.
Especially if that home had terrible bus and train connections because of the decades long fight of the country's right wing party to defund and dismantle the public transportation network in order to privatize it for their corporate interests.
