Interesting! Thanks for sharing. My machine is just over a year old and is UEFI. By the way, when I change operating systems I use Macrium images, except for the very first time the OS is installed, then I do a clean install. I never upgrade an OS, like going Win 11 from 10.
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

If your Macrium images are full disk, I do not know what else could be the problem.
If they are only of the Windows partition, your are probably not replacing the UEFI stuf I mentioned earlier.

I always do full disk images (all partitions).

A little too special-interest for the newsletter, but it looked interesting: CadHub[^] Quote: Designs backed by reliable, easy-to-write code open a world of new workflows and collaboration. We're building a place where you can build that future. Create your CAD object in code (JavaScript, Python, or C++-like), and presumably export to some usable format.

On the other hand... most websites don't result in a good 3D print.

I recently utilized tinkerCAD for some simple work I found it quite useful after giving up on FreeCAD
|
|
|
|
|
Alibre Atom is also a good choice over FreeCAD, although it costs ~150 or a bit more for a perpetual license. FreeCAD worked, but Alibre was far closer to the ease of use of SolidWorks. Others have mentioned Fusion 360, but I refuse to pay a monthly fee that will soon surpass that $150.

Fusion360 hobbyist license is free. You have to renew it every year and it's a chore to figure out how. Has all the features I need except the ability to print full size plans on anything other than 8.5x11 or A4.
For 3D printing it's fantastic. No full size plans required!

While using OpenSCAD I do regularly think "hmm, maybe I should just write something spitting out the SCAD files from C# code so I can get decent syntax and libraries". Luckily I am too busy to start such a project.

I'm happy to announce that the http module in Python 3.9 now includes the HTTP 418 "I'm a Teapot" code.
For those wondering what I'm talking about, see RFC 7168: The Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol for Tea Efflux Appliances (HTCPCP-TEA)
Quote: 2.3.3. 418 I'm a Teapot
TEA-capable pots that are not provisioned to brew coffee may return
either a status code of 503, indicating temporary unavailability of
coffee, or a code of 418 as defined in the base HTCPCP specification
to denote a more permanent indication that the pot is a teapot.
Yeah, it's going to be one of those weeks.
cheers

Pfffft! Call me when it finally implements RFC1149 - or preferably RFC2549.

That's Level 1 of the OSI levels. HTTP is what, level 4?

Certainly more like Presentation (6) or Application (7). The encoding - the specific use of angle brackets, character entities and that sort of stuff - is a Presentation issue. That is how to represent an abstract information structure that might equally be represented in other ways (such as a DOM tree). The syntax and semantics of that abstract part of HTML belongs in Application.
Even though many people (usually with rather shallow knowledge of the OSI model - but that covers 95+ % of all software developers today) try to place various elements of IP based protocols into one single OSI layer, it usually can't be done properly, as seen from an ISO model point of view. In plain words: IP protocols are a mess in regard to clean layering.

Which do you mean, OSI or ISO?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.
|

OSI is a standard family from ISO (in cooperation with ITU-T), so I guess the answer is: Both.
|

Having been out of the developer world through the era when HTCPC was created, I am made very curious: was this created to illustrate the OSI model?
Thanks for the lessons; I've always believed that shared development relied entirely on communication of purpose and methods. There is nothing so satisfyingly helpful as a well-made requirements doc.

I'm afraid that you can forget any hope of learning anything from OSI. It was thrown away, all its qualities were ditched. OSI is just for old time dreamers fantasising about how the world could have been. If the world wasn't different, of course ...

Hahaha. Thought that's what RFC1149 was. Didn't realize the two of them were related.
Fun
