The idea that autocad has a "death grip" on the industry is laughable to me. Fusion360 -> PTC Onshape AutoCAD -> BricsCAD Inventor -> Easily outclassed by NX/SolidEdge, Solidworks/CATIA and Creo

Ah the time old classic. Go into the registry and change these 3 keys that seeming have zero relation to the problem at hand and restart your machine TWICE then its fixed. Out of the box most popular distros require less tweaking and hammer

Solar panels are piss-cheap to make. They are literally just glass with a transistor on them (huge oversimplification) All of the materials used are readily available and manufacturing is not incredibly difficult. Inverters and control circ

This is why smart meters are important to providers, they can more accurately model the spot pricing adjustments which means that you actually use LESS fossil fuels. Also most new meter installs support bi-directional metering

The EPA heavily regulates any emissions defeat devices. The problem is they spend most of their time going after tuner shops where most cars run on ethanol rather than diesel shops who cater to brain-damaged customers who think rolling coal

The worst part about fusions implementation is that you CANNOT edit the User Parameters while you are viewing the part easily. I like to edit the params and drag it around, but it SUCKS in fusion
