Timmy Cook is just a bean counter. He’s got nothing to innovate or build. That’s Apple has been buying back shares non stop. Their lead designer jumped ship a while ago. It’s only a matter of time.

I mean catching it early is the best as opposed to finding out later. Best of luck

I have two boys with autism. Some of this resonates. Have you had him tested? I imagine you have but just in case. Good luck.

Autodesk is also locking me into windows 😕

I get the sense there are a lot of accelerationists in this thread. Of course, the accelerationists are never the ones personally impacted by their actions. I wish I had all that privilege to cosplay as a revolutionary

She endorsed Harris…

I think it’s a consequence of the user base zeitgeist. Lemmy has a pretty strong adoption filtering system (I don’t care how “obvious” and “easy” it is to most of you; if you’re here, you’re clearly not who I’m talking about)

What is that concept called about society having a collective short term memory?

This comment just reeks of vibes. She’s extremely accomplished and intelligent. She wasn’t the most hilarious or charming person, but again, that’s not what I look for in a leader.

I never understand comments like these. She was elected senator of California. She was an AG. Her list of accomplishments is available on Wikipedia for free. What does a black woman have to do to prove herself in this day?

I’ve only seen this phenomenon on Lemmy where it’s a hard stance all or nothing about every hot topic. Also, I think many here are privileged people. After all, it’s not the Lemmy user’s families being abducted at immigration hearings or whose kids are losing their only meal option because Republicans ended school lunches. So they yap all day about the genocide in Gaza, don’t bother to vote and the cycle repeats. Because in the end, they personally are not affected

Im leaning towards two separate machines as well. I think that’s the route I’ll go in the end

I’ve moved half my toolset to free and open source alternatives. I’ve ditched Adobe which has a monopoly on the entire market. Sadly, there are no alternative BIM/CAD tools that can take on Autodesk (yet).

I was thinking this too. Might get a second desktop and set that up

Haha Ok let me send a memo to the whole global architecture community and ask them to switch to something different

Thanks. I am a freelancer but I depend on the platforms my clients work with.

This comment is so stupid I wouldn’t know where to start to unpack it. This is such a bad take on so many levels it makes Sovereign citizens sound like supreme court justices.

Can anyone give recommendations on what to do if you have to run Autodesk products (Revit. Autocad) for work? No, I can’t swap them for open source alternatives such as FreeCAD as Im working with large international projects. Should I dual boot? Virtual machine inside Linux?

😬 You brought it up, man. People here are so combative…we all Gucci man. It was lost in translation that’s all. It wasn’t meant with malice. I just clarified with the follow up.

Ok thanks.
