Depends on what your using it for? For 3d printers I like FreeCAD. Though it has a bit of an initial learning curve. It has a lot of functionally. SolveSpace was pretty good but I had some trouble with fillets and things. Might have been user errors... I havent used blender much but heard its good for more artistic modeling for games and videos. Not sure if it would work good for 3d parts? Anyone use it for that?

Ya, thats probably true. I always hope there is some type of rational thought to this behavior that I havent thought of. But I doubt it here. Only thing I can think of is they wouldn't like the look of it. Hardly a reason to go as far as dealth threats...

What were the peoples concerns? Why did they hate the idea of this so much? It was surrounded by farms and not like it was a nuclear power plant or something... I'm a little confused by the people's response.

I think straws are harder to clean properly. All other utensils are outside surfaces only. If some one has food stuck inside one the restaurant is probably not going to want to manually put a cleaner inside every one to be sure. A small chance some customer is going to get one with food still in it... I don't mind the paper ones that don't go soggy right away. At home I use metal or silicone ones. Like the silicone ones!

Two issues I have with them.

First the size. Being on a poor internet connection makes downloading them painful. Some apps are 200MB for the apt or a flatpak install 1.5GB! Also doesn't help with disk space.

Second I often have issues saving files. Some apps use non standard folder location and some still save them to the non standard location even when you select one of you own. Block bench was bad. I'm not sure what causes this, if it wasn't for the size I would probably spend more time looking for a fix.

Think RT is "round trip". The first number they listed was one way and the second was to work and back.

There are no penalties for violating Ontario’s Archives and Recordkeeping Act, which bars government staffers from deleting emails, and the maximum fine for violating Ontario’s freedom of information law is $5,000.

So other than a fine that that is basically nothing, there is nothing that can happen?! How can there not be "something" to deter people from deleting what ever they want? I don't know much about the laws involved in this but hope something will come of this.

Hard to explain. I use iptv because I miss having something on that is:

  • something I might have not see before, channel flip and find something new.
  • something I don't really care about and can be turned off at moments notice.
  • something just for background noise.
  • I sometimes dont want to think and pick a show.
  • Other??

Some of those overlap a little.

You are right. I think it would have to be malfunctioning. Don't think a properly working one would burn any thing. I had the feeling from some of the articles that people were under the impression a usual and properly working ones were dangerous because of carbon monoxide. The same risk is true of any electric device. It could burn slowly. Everyone should have a carbon monoxide detector and still vent things properly either way. :)

I don't think they do that story is just people jumping to conclusions. They can produce toxic fumes, but I don't know where carbon monoxide would come from.

know for sure but my guess is that the + version is the paid version on play store with unlocked features. Since this is the full free version on fdroid they changed the name to clarify the difference.

Edit: Found on Wikipedia under licensing that this does seem to be the reason. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/OsmAnd
