If you have #problems with #FreeCAD under #Linux : an update of "org.kde.Platform" destroyed some depencedies.

A possibility is using the AppImage of FreeCAD, it works fine ...

This is what us Dutchies call #omdenken (rotating perspective on difficult problems to escape deadlocks).

B.t.w. it often does not solve the original problem, but it does lead to interesting and often humor-full thoughts (as is nicely illustrated here)!

Every Moon mission has to solve two problems at once: how to spend as little propellant as possible, and how to keep the spacecraft connected to Earth when lunar geometry gets in the way. Those proble...

SpaceX Starship test flight halted by launch tower issues

SpaceX's newest and biggest Starship will have to wait at least another day before launching on a test flight from Texas. The launch team got within a half-minute Thursday evening of sending the mega rocket on a space-skimming journey halfway around the world. But a series of last-minute problems forced a delay. SpaceX says it may try again Friday. The 407-foot rocket is using a brand new pad at Starbase near the Mexican border, and that's what contributed to some of the issues. NASA is counting on this latest version of Starship to land astronauts on the moon in a few years.
