Impressive that you were able to do any CAD on a 20yr old PC. Then yeah you sound like you would benefit from more ram though even at the pace that CAD has blown up in size, I also work in teac with CAD (NX/Creo) 64GB is sufficient. Even over the next 10 years that should be enough. As far as Firefox and other browsers in general they've added so much bloat I'm not surprised it's running out of memory. Good luck! And

They have a preset laundry list of commands that you can utilize. You can also make your own. It can take you into the weeds but it is possible. They also have modules that can provide you chatter. Some of them are voiced by popular Sci Fi actors!

I don't ask open questions unless I'm really really stuck. I utilize man pages ( manuals for a particular command) to get a feel for the surface level options then use my search fu. Doesn't have to be Google. There are plenty. And there is a plethora of sites out there with answers for just about any newbie questions you may need. The sometimes difficult part is deciphering what works and what doesn't (see below) Personally being able to RTFM and read what others have done I feel more accomplished than asking someone out there to help every time. What works for one user may or may not work for you.

One strong suggestion. For the particular task you are learning, keep a journal of what works and what doesn't . There are lots of ways to customize your system IF you want to. That being said there are plenty more ways to mess your system up. So having a log of what works allows you to do a fresh install and get you back to before you messed things up. OR make a back up of your current config, something like timeshift or the like, so it's even easier to get back to tinkering.

I will say that if your on a Windows PC Hcs Voice Packs could be your friend. Buddy of mine and I have been using a second PC and this app to multitask in SC and works very well. If you go any voice route make sure you train and keep training your voice recognition. Especially if you have impediments or an 'accent'.

One causes children to do dumb shit. The others actually kill them. Yeah completely comparable.

More than half of 132 doctors surveyed saw at least one case of health harm that could ​be related to tech and devices every week, and over a third saw evidence of harm ​multiple times a week, it said.

Harms ranged from physical injuries, for example caused by replicating acts of extreme ‌pornography, ⁠to mental health impacts, such as trauma from seeing violence online.

Britain is consulting on restricting children's access to social media, including a possible ban for under-16s, as well as curfews, app time limits and curbs on what it has described as addictive design features.

All of this is propaganda to enforce ID checks and tracking for using the Internet.

Its really weird to me that instead of making social media companies responsible for their content with actual real consequences including shutting them down and criminal charges and painful monetary fines, they are pushing world wide ID and tracking on the rest of us.

You are little bit misguided on point 2.

This link has a ton of information and photos.

Fragmentation grenades are designed to throw shrapnel in "all" directions. A majority of them will be up from the point of the floor however there are plenty of fragments that will still be thrown laterally across the floor.

That being said you would have a higher chance of survivability laying on the floor behind something.

The mental gymnastics you are doing to blame Valve for your inability to have any forethought about receiving your purchase is at an Olympic level.

10s across the board.

Good question. Here is a quote from NOAA

A map of the anthropogenic CO2 ocean column inventory shows that the carbon is not evenly distributed in space. More than 23% of the inventory can be found in the North Atlantic, a region covering approximately 15% of the global ocean. By contrast, the region south of 50°S represents approximately the same ocean area but only has ~9% of the global inventory.

The site above also explains the life cycle of CO2 in the earth's oceans.

Good information and REAL numbers.

So just because the three letter agencies are already doing this doesn't mean they should be. Also doesn't mean that we should just accept it.

if its on a local machine, the user can just change it (or install a different OS).

This also is a gaping hole in their plan. And by California definition all OS are to have this check... So if they all conform and give into this demand then what OS will they change to?

Exactly this is a slippery slope scenario. Next they are going to want the camera to take snapshots of the user to verify that the user logged in is actually who they say they are at all times.

Some will call this comment alarmist but a little critical thinking can see this is the direction the government and 3rd parties are eyeing if not already planning for. Just look at Microsoft trying to take snapshots of what you are working on throughout your session.

I am also leaning this direction. My subscriptions flow for quite a while. Where "new" will load 20ish posts and then need a refresh. Sometimes on my death scrolls it will drop to 1-2 posts on refresh. Rate limiting feels like an answer to this.
