If you like PVP, Deadlock has a parry that’s integral to close quarters combat

If you’re doing simple stuff, FreeCAD’s sketcher is pretty useful.

FreeCAD has a lot of separate workbenches for different stuff, so I don’t know what OP’s “2D CAD” actually relates to, could be drawing a house or sheet metal. However, it does have a generic “drafting” workbench (that I have never used) that seems more 2D CAD oriented.

FreeCAD and OpenSCAD are the two that I see mentioned with any frequency. I only have experience with 3D CAD, so I can’t give a ton of advice on how 2D CAD works in any software.

Singleplayer games are easy by default because you’re just solving a puzzle not competing against another person

You are “competing” against the developer. Plus, the execution barrier for games can be quite high; as an example, if you are playing a single player FPS, even if you know the optimal solution to a challenge, following that solution still requires some level of aim and reaction time.

You don’t need to rub salt in the wound, I was just giving a counter example.

This is a terrible take because most of the people I know who play games on hard have girlfriends because they enjoy confronting challenging and unique situations.

I play games on hard and people don’t like me in general.

Wow that’s exciting. I’m not sure I understand the strategic importance of reconsolidating Yemen at this stage. Sitting here in my armchair, this is not what I would do.

This is the feeling I have had about half the stuff that happens in the RU/UA war.

I bet it’s similar in Beijing (may even have some carve outs for consumer drones, lotta places do).

From the very unbiased sources I see on XHS, this is actually enforced, and people do find it annoying. On the flip side, people also complain about other people flying drones anywhere, so

The common quote that “women hold up half the sky" hides the injustice that albania holds up a quarter of the sky and is never credited for it.

If its just deaths, it would be more than any single country in WW1.

an appropriately dedicated group could probably spin up their own encrypted messaging system?

this is completely unrealistic.

For reference, nation state level actors still fuck this up. And expecting a group of <10 people to be able to outperform the CIA is a bit of a stretch.

Can you check what the actual CPU model is? All but one of the processors listed for your model have a base clock at or above 2GHz, and all of them have a boost clock well above 3GHz.

Laptops have low base frequency, even intel cpus released in 2026 have base clocks sitting around 2GHz. They can temporarily reach higher clock speeds (boost or turbo) when they need more performance, which means the base clock speed can be lower.

Billions of dollars, no, trillions, have gone into solving the problem of intercepting fast jets at low altitude. The F-35s, X-band radars, E-7 Sentry, spy satellite networks, all pinnacles of the American dreamTM sold to vassals air defenses impenetrable by conventional means.

It’s times like this that remind me that I barely use the normal internet and I don’t use it like most people do, because my first thought was “you have inactive tabs?”

I close about 3000 tabs at once each year.

Isn’t this a somewhat common way to distribute scam links?

People so broken by the perceived failure of Secular communism they’re back to converting to the faith of whatever army has the current initiative.

The replies to this post are just erasure of the accomplishments of secular AES. People critique the failures and regressive policies of the USSR and China, why should Iran be any different? It’s like half the people here just forgot what critical support is.

All children are smaller versions of me, actually, as I am the prototypical child.

Yes, but also, sometimes the same account has blank spots in the modlog, usually after a month back. If you look in the general modlog, the only actions taken “1 month ago” were purges and mod reshuffles, when there were surely other mod actions taken in that time frame.

Does the modlog drop stuff after a month? I’ve seen a bunch of people like OP that have a few things in the past month, then only stuff from years ago. Not that I’m accusing anyone of anything, just curious.
