on FreeCAD 1.1 is out · c/3dprinting · 4 pts · 150d

Reading this I can't tell if you are talking about solidworks or freeCAD. JK but man solidworks is still one of the buggiest programs. If you use solidworks though the Solidworks error report screen is just part of the experience. Still I believe the gold standard for design software out there over NX, AutoCAD, and CATIA.

GPS is entirely free. What cost money is relaying that information back to you. Since you are talking about GPS I am assuming you want something more than just a beacon style tag. You are looking for something you can insert your own data only SIM card into that you can program yourself to upload it's coordinates to a website every X seconds or whatever you choose. You also want it to have BLE for the beacon style of the air tag. Self hosting this is not going to be cheap each device would be around $10 a month for the data only SIM.

I have no clue who sells these off the self. You can get an ESP32 with GPS and a SIM card slot. This is basically exactly what you are looking for but you still need to do the programming and manufacture a case depending on the application.

It's a cool project hopefully with this info you can find an OTS version.

Climate change denial along with the idea of not needing public transit is more or a huge propaganda campaign. It is closer to an ad campaign put on by "big oil" than just idiots talking on the internet. Koch brothers are huge into this whole thing but in America at least it was a planned and targeted campaign.

Similar to why Subaru is known as a vehicle for lesbians, that was also an ad campaign before the internet.

It's important I think to know this isn't "hive mind" mentality or just a few idiots convincing others. This is a huge campaign with huge money backing it. Ads and propaganda science is a wild science and really interesting but just know with enough money, time, and skill, convincing a large group of people to do or think something is very possible and done every day.

On McMasterCarr they are binding barrel and sleeve nuts. As far as I'm concerned it's only what they name it that matters because that.is who I'm buying it from.

Perfect North! LFG. But in all honesty those people all over the hill with blue coats are the instructors and will normally answer quick questions you might have.

Also take a lesson if you can afford it. The next step is the way to go it's cheaper than a private but the group will be small and you will get sent out with an instructor who's good at helping people at your level.

To learn though PSIA is a professional ski instructor resource but the videos and documents they have will help you learn too.

Last ski swap before the season starts is a good place to find deals.on.last years stuff and used equipment.

Have fun, stay safe.
