I think you’re missing their point, they weren’t saying that Blender is cad, it’s just a good comparison, as a successful piece of software in the the same broad, general category (3D modeling)

We want what Blender is to mesh modeling, rendering, etc, but for parametric cad, manufacturing, etc. Basically Fusion 360 but open source, without any of Autodesk’s bs. Ideally it would even work together with Blender for rendering.

Yeah I would say you might as well just go with mint then. Debian based distros are popular for a reason.

EndeavourOS is really probably the best overall option though, as you have the best software availability, but if you’re not comfortable using the terminal, I might avoid it. (Although I will say that package management with yay is super easy, just yay [packagename] to search and install interactively. Also to update your system just alias yay -Syu to “update” if you have trouble remembering the right flags. I’d really recommend learning to use the terminal regardless of distro, though.)

I agree in general, although I think Subnautica is still great despite being heavily crafting based.

Yeah, Doom 2016 is easily one of my favorite singleplayer fps games. Doom Eternal is just worse in every way, and I couldn’t get through more than a few hours.

It completely breaks the combat flow state that made the original great

Instead of having the freedom to prioritize enemies and weapons, it wants you to do things a very specific way

Instead of the minimal but interesting story from the 2016, we get a convoluted mess, with random characters that we have no reason to care about.

Also, despite 2016 looking quite good, they decided to make Eternal garish and cartoony for some reason??

I could go on, but anyway I hope we get a proper 2016 sequel some day.

There are also plenty of replacements for builtin apps like camera, gallery, maps, etc, although I personally haven’t made that jump yet as there are some missing quality of life features.

This might not exactly be the sort of thing you’re looking for, but I recently read and loved Blindsight

Not ADHD, but definitely neurospicy. The main character has half a functioning brain, with many technological augments, and is pretty far from NT as a result.

Anyway, I highly recommend it. Super interesting book. It’s about alien first contact, although not in the way you might expect…

Humans might do that too, if they are stuck without food. I don’t think that means much.

Also tamed big cats don’t attack humans they know, despite easily being able to kill them. And they aren’t even domesticated.

Yeah give me shapeshifting, please. Slow, binary transition ain’t it.
