I have opinions. Some of them are terrible. For this I am sorry.

  • Just pay attention and whenever you see or hear something that Makes you say "wait what?" Go look it up and educate yourself.

    You don't necessarily need to participate in the conversation, observe it, gather opinions and cross reference with trusted sources.

    Of course in person you can't just whip out your phone and look stuff up, or shit I guess you can, but you can always say "I'm not informed enough to speak on this, can I get back to you?" and in my experience people will respect that, giving you a chance to go educate yourself on whatever the topic at hand was.

    Blahaj zone is down too, presumably anything that routes traffic through CF.

    Editing later to clarify because I noticed this comment made some implications: Obviously it wasn't just blahaj that was down, I'm sure plenty of other instances were too. I saw someone mention one of the austrailian ones as well. Blahaj was the one I noticed since I subscribe to a lot of their comms in my feed. This comment was not meant to throw shade at them for using Cloudflare.

    As I stated in my original comment, some people use readymade suites and pay for support, that is their perogative.

    I find I do Better quality work when I build my own toolkit, and tie the tools together my way.

    To borrow an example from my father in reference to working on cars:

    Sure you can buy a mechanic's toolbox that will have everything you need but those are cheap, mass produced tools desogned to fit the needs of the everyman. If you buy an empty toolbox instead you can fill it with the tools you use, then you can have higher quality tools for the things you actually do with them and not waste space on tools you don't ever touch.

  • Use two tools if one doesn't get the job done, is kind of my point here. Sure you can pay for the convenience of f360, or you can build your own toolkit. Its like 2-in-1 shampoo, if it does both things it probably isn't the best at either of them.

  • Re: missing out

    I've got friends who tell me they won't switch to Linux because they want their anti-cheat games. I usually tell them if they took the time to learn their system they'd understand why they don't want anto-cheat games.

    In the last 20 years, I have not found a single piece of software (games excluded, i pay for art when payment is asked) that I, a regular person on the internet, have not been able to source a free open source alternative that while potentially equipped with a steep learning curve is often as good as if not Better than many corporate solutions once learned.

    People can pay for pretty, super convenient UIs and proprietary solutions with support contracts if they want to, thats their perogative. I prefer to learn the software myself and if I hate the UI that much that I'd be willing to pay, its worth either just sitting down and making my own with pyside (its quick and easy, learning curve excluded) or paying a freelance dev to make one bespoke.

  • While you do not need software devs for a button, once you have enough buttons doing enough things controlling them with a computer becomes much easier than controlling them using mechanical circuitry. This is the whole reason for SBCs like the Arduino, so people can make the transitionary step between "my project is simple enough to have physical logic built into it" and "my project is so complex it no longer makes sense for me to hand build the logic"

    If you haven't messed with physical logic gates before, I recommend it! If you don't have a physical workspace to do it in, Minecraft actually Makes a 'great' sandbox for playing with logic circuits. Superflat Creative worlds are the bomb for that.

    Start with a simple yes gate, then learn a not gate, then an And, then an Or, and build up from there!

    You'll find very quickly that once you need persistence involved, projects with physical logic can scale massively with each additional bit of storage added. Doing something with that storage? Good luck! As a result, nowadays we pay someone for a tiny computer they already made, and program it to make our buttons do stuff, instead of just having the buttons do stuff directly.

    Edit: removed a word, analog does not mean mechanical, mea culpa.

  • If I could have a Fully electric mid 90s chevy S10 style pickup with modern safety features and no surveillance I would be sooooo happy. But no, if I want a truck I can buy old as fuck or get a wanktank. Closest option to what I want in the US currently is a Ford Maverick (which is literally just a rebadged explorer sport trac for the modern age) but that would mean supporting Ford, and like, fuck Ford.
