I wonder how many of the ideas he has pitched have become reality in the last few months/years.

You mean like in panel 4 of the comic where the owner of such car would totally feel bad for not fitting in the designated area?

The file has a specific server baked in though, right? No switching until you manually edit or create a new file?

Maybe the children who will lose their jobs in the mines can now just sell their blood for the rich to sprinkle on their diamonds.

You do realize who was just elected for president? Doing nothing isn’t the worst case scenario. Reverting the progress we’ve made so far will be. And it seems likely that’s what’s going to happen.

(F)OSS 2D floor planner (self.opensource)

submitted 3 months ago by brrt to c/[email protected]

14 comments fedilink

I’m just looking for a simple 2D floor planner that is easy to use and has the ability to show measurements.

The two most recommended open source tools I’ve seen have shortcomings.

Sweet Home 3D:

Very 3D centric, which over complicates things.
Project was recently acquired/handed off to a company and the iOS version is published by “AI Photo Editor Lab SRL”

draw.io / diagrams.net:

Very finicky to set up and create floor plans
To display measurements one has to add measurement objects to every wall/object

Does anyone have other recommendations?

A resource to get notified when certain open source projects change in a negative way? (self.opensource)

submitted 5 months ago by brrt to c/[email protected]

10 comments fedilink

I’m looking for a way to keep an eye on open source software I’m using, especially if there are detrimental changes. Like for example when there’s an acquisition (Raivo Authenticator) or the project has not been updated in a long time (potentially posing a security risk).

But I don’t want to have to read about every project, just the ones I’m using.

Anyone got any ideas?

Dedicated Authenticators from Password Manager vendors (self.opensource)

Does anyone know why there are no dedicated Authenticator apps made by for example Proton or Bitwarden?

I’m aware that they have TOTP baked into their password managers but you still need to have at least one separate solution to log into your vault.
