If you made a dollar a day from the time the dinosaurs were killed by the asteroid till today you'd still only have 10% of what he has.

What's up with the abuse of the word open lately. I had a look at that project to see how they were doing the conversion, but I couldn't find it. But I found this:

Short answer, yes! OpenScanCloud (OSC) is and will stay closed source...

Your data will be transferred through Dropbox and stored/processed on my local servers. I will use those image sets and resulting 3d models for further research, but none of your data will be published without your explicit consent!

I feel like I'd rather use Autodesk at that point. At least I know what I'm dealing with right out of the gate.

But check that it has all the features you need because it lags behind gitea in some aspects (like ci).

A few months ago I needed to install Google home for something Chromecast related, so I quickly searched the play store and installed it. Loaded it up and I see an ad, what the hell. App opens and I realise it isn't Google Home, it's something made to trick me into thinking it was when I wasn't paying attention.

Google is letting their ads steal their own users from them.

At least it's symmetrical so it won't rock, unlike every other phone out there now, including the one I'm typing on.

Well Matthew Perry did invent sarcasm, so it tracks.

You say that as if solving grid storage wasn't one of the most important problems humanity faces right now.

Well I'm not sure it takes an expert to master a plug.

But I'd understand the hate if it was universal (pun maybe intended), but everyone that hates micro-usb seems to adore usb-c, while I feel like it's potentially much more fragile. When handling usb-c I always use a lot more delicate care than I ever did with micro-usb. Mostly because even though I'm pretty good at soldering very tiny things, I'm not confident I could replace most usb-c receptacles without messing it up.

I've used more usb gadgets than most people, as I deal with electronics a lot, but I never had a single problem with micro usb. Not sure why people hate it so much.

I mean I learned it in a few days and found it very intuitive as well. Far more intuitive than I found fusion when I tried that years later. Inventor and onshape also feel more pleasant to use.

The issue seems to be that the fusion interface is very non-standard when compared to other cad suites, so people that get used to it first find everything else unintuitive.

Have you tried running xiaomi.eu ROMs?
