For some reason my computer lags a lot but that might be because I have way too many tabs.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The lack of a good cad software (fusion 360), and no, freecad and openscad are not worthy equivalents.
it's this. muh goadd. Its like going back to the days before blender was good and trying lightwave because your friend is convinced it was better than maya or 3ds max, and making thay whole experience four times worse. I guess every now and then you run in to a software so inconceivably counterintuitive that no tutorial can help you produce meaningful work. meanwhile I haven't followed any tutorials apart from those for 2000's era modellers meant for games and movies and I've been able to make what I need fairly easily in f360 or onshape.
This is how to trim a curve on a point in FreeCAD. Honestly hilarious. Tried using it recently, and I couldn't follow a basic tutorial without it breaking. This is a recent fair review of FreeCAD, and it still needs a lot of work even after its 1.0 release before it is worth using. I'm considering going back to OpenSCAD for a simple project, and then I will try using build123d in python (CadQuery is a more user-friendly alternative, at least as far as I am told).
I'm curious how well these CAD kernel projects written in Rust will turn out: Fornjot / Truck

Keypirinha. Krunner is good but not that good.
Sharex. Spectacle is fine but not perfect.
The only time I've used windows was in school computer labs where they taught us how to use paint in windows xp and few other dumb shit.
So I don't know what I'm missing but looks like nothing important
iTunes is probably the biggest, people with iDevices have a harder time with GNU/Linux

The use of my ANT+ adapter with Zwift. But Bluetooth via the phone worked for 62 miles and several hours today, so I guess that will suffice.
