Why the majority? Why bother? So much effort, so many clicks, for what?

I only downvote stuff I actually dislike, or disagree with.

In the comment listing, each comment first has an avatar, then the username, then the [—] button to collapse the comment thread. Observation: Because username length varies from comment to comment, the [—] button is in a different horizontal position. Consequence: As a user, it is tedious to collapse several comment threads because I have to search for that [—] button.

Request: put the [—] button as first item, to the left of the avatar and username.

Tracking is just looking backwards on what you DID spend your money on, my friend.

Look forward and start planning what you WANT to spend it on. Budgeting is so different from tracking.

I am personally a huge fan of YNAB (You Need A Budget) and I just found there's a (sub-lemmy?) for YNAB as well, here: https://lemmy.world/c/ynab

Thank you! He is actually looking into 3d printing but has not bought anything yet. I'd hate for him to spend too little and have a crappy experience with a poor printer; much rather pay some extra to have a solid start.

They are actually learning CAD/3D drawing at school - how cool is that??! Back in my day we had Commodore 64 and had to remember to press Enter before the line ended, because there was no such thing as automatic word wrap. Times have moved on!!

I'm getting my kids started with LEGO Mindstorms! Sumo bots is the first idea that came up.

... I think my 13yo wants to go bigger. Welding, anyone?

Obligatory groan
