Holy shit I never knew that.

I really thought it was one of my apps that I used that wasn't Foss because it was so useful.

Now I want to use it more!

This is one of the pain points of fitness tracking. There is nothing that supports everything because companies try their best to lock everything down for their own subscription fees and data sale profits outside of the basics that you can go through their servers for.

Plus hyper-specific requirements per person make it difficult.

Honestly probably some app that grabs data from every service you use would be best.

Also good to note that that garmin's "recovery time" is just a random thumb in the air educated guess specifically from hard workout to hard workout, not from workout to workout, and it is not a "rest period" but a period of "less than 'intense' workouts" and they have not allowed anyone to see their algorithm or do studies correlating its accuracy. That means it is not accurate.

Rip bismuth. It worked almost perfectly in plasma5 and with rewrites in plasma6 it broke and the dev didn't want to rewrite it.

I wish distributers in the EU were better...

Mouser and digikey are fantastic.

Every single European distributor's website is utter chaos garbage as far as finding new components that fit within criteria (and have bad filters). RS and TME just don't have many more specialized ICs (ECG AFEs, sensor hubs, PPG chips, hell, the STM (european) selection of mems sensors at TME is just flat out bad bad), and Farnell doesn't sell to individuals, and also has a much smaller stock. So instead of paying shipping once at a distributer, we have to pay shipping 3, 4, 5 times for the same parts.

This isn't even going into trying to have an alternative for McMaster Carr, Misume is pretty bad in comparison as far as UX and selection.

But I am already thankful that we have the alternatives we do.

Conversely, I game only on a Linux machine and have received 3-5 surveys in the last year.

It may have a variety of factors, but it is not as simple as "they aren't giving surveys to Linux users to deflate numbers" or something that some Linux users tend to theorize when they don't get surveys for a while.

Meh, that is just changing one tech giant for another. Both spy on you completely. It is not like either will be better for the consumer.

Mealie is so underrated. They have meal planning, recipes, recipe parsing from the internet, grocery lists based on recipes and meal plans, like 4 different ways to organize recipes, and OIDC/SSO on top of it all!

I think some things are very necessary for medium or bigger companies:

• Dynamic Drill Tables, stackup in the spec layer and DRC import export NOT importing from other projects (and not the "DRC file" thing that does not transfer back into the GUI)

• Fonts

• Technical assembly drawing exports

I use it weekly in my own time, but it is difficult to get everyone "synced" on it.

Though as a kind of "exception", I think that charging poles for electric cars should have modbus or Ethernet and a local protocol (matter maybe?) to use with smart home systems for automation and cars should have a standard affordable way to check errors and status of sensors.

Freecad can't keep up with professional software with decades of paid development, sadly. It has gone very fast these past 2-3 years compared to being relatively slow before that, but now the SaaS company supporting them is bankrupt so who knows.

KiCAD on the other hand, is like 50% or more of the way there to match commercial offerings and is mostly missing QoL and productivity features

That's because it is a cheap Chinese phone. Nothing does all of their R&D, engineering, software, etc... In China at the moment from the best anyone can tell. They only hire electronics and hardware engineers in China according to their postings.

The UK company registration seems just to not be another Chinese phone company so they have a marketing division there.

They are also owned by american investors.
