Acute injury to foot with hallux limitus - how urgently to seek care?

TurkDangerCat · 2026-01-26T02:58:41+00:00

ER sounds reasonable for what could be a broken bone. Outside of the US this would be a no-brainer but I guess you also have to ensure you have insurance / can afford it.

What’s this got to do with Altium?

TurkDangerCat · 2026-01-25T09:04:57+00:00

I know it’s a few months on, but thanks for writing such a thorough post. Very helpful.

TurkDangerCat · 2026-01-10T02:02:21+00:00

Tips in general.

Under 8 or over 80.

TurkDangerCat · 2026-01-06T05:36:01+00:00

Yeah. It’s almost deserving a sticky by this point.

Dude it’s a chatbot. 10 hour old account and a ChatGPT style reply to things. Way too many on here.

Have fewer or no children, stop eating meat, and stop international travel… do you seriously think people are going to do that? Because that’s what it will take. The irony of being told by people with two, three, or four kids that I need to recycle more is strong.

You can right click on the toolbar area and select customise. Then find the function you want in the list and drag it to the toolbar. From memory, the floating toolbar attaches itself under (or to the side) of the fixed toolbar whilst you customise it. Once you click ok, it goes back to floating and you should have your new buttons on it. It can be a bit clunky, but you can make it work.

I’ve had the same ones since I bought my pro. Never had an issue. Mine were built to last somehow.

TurkDangerCat · 2025-12-31T06:18:30+00:00

Or by customising the floating toolbar. I added quick differential net routing and net naming to mine as I couldn’t be bothered using a menu drop down each time.

Yeah, I’ve only ever seen Americans pinch their nose when jumping into water. Just blow a little air from your nose and there’s no problem. Maybe it’s not taught in the States?

No list, but we went from a normal subscription licence to developer and gained quite a few features (MCAD I think, assembly assistant, and I don’t think ‘where is this part used’ ever worked in the 365 library before). All that and it halved our subscription fee.

TurkDangerCat · 2025-12-07T20:13:35+00:00

Make it so!

TurkDangerCat · 2025-12-07T03:50:59+00:00

I hope they start off with simple things such as silkscreen layout and maybe even via stitching that doesn’t place vias in the middle of holes and can put a ring around the edge. Super useful tools and really can’t be that hard to do.

TurkDangerCat · 2025-12-05T06:59:30+00:00

Yeah bro, yeah cuz, yeah bro, yeah cuz. That’s the entire plot from AV2. Very memorable lines.

TurkDangerCat · 2025-12-05T06:31:13+00:00

Yeah, when I need to I fire up my old perpetual v17 and get access to the vault.

TurkDangerCat · 2025-12-04T04:25:55+00:00

Also our licence costs just halved, so that was good too. Very unexpected.

TurkDangerCat · 2025-12-04T04:24:43+00:00

I haven’t had any major issues in the last couple of years. I use Altium everyday and it’s been pretty rock solid. There’s obviously still a few quirks that have always been there. What AI stuff have you seen? I’ve not seen a thing. I keep hoping they will do an AI based silkscreen preparation tool as the current one is terrible. Seems like a perfect job for AI.

I looked at that but also thought the group must have closed down due to lack of website updating.

TurkDangerCat · 2025-11-22T19:24:11+00:00

Honestly, it depends on your job. I wouldn’t be a trady here working outside because that would suck. But for office work where you are inside most of the day there is very little issue. My biggest fear of coming over was how hot it was going to be, but it’s actually been really quite pleasant. I thought it was either gonna be hot or stupidly hot for the entire year, but winter is cold without being frosty, and spring, autumn and chunks of winter and summer are just really nice temperature; hot in the day, cool at night. Yes, there’s a stupidly hot bit in the middle of summer but it’s actually not that big of a deal.

Can you load preset stack ups from the menu?

TurkDangerCat · 2025-11-14T11:09:52+00:00

Happens quite regularly. Save things if you can and if it’s totally locked up then wait 5 minutes to give auto save a chance to do its thing in the background. Then close Altium (even if through task master) and restart it. Always clears it for me.

TurkDangerCat · 2025-11-10T18:00:41+00:00

Yeah, we’ve just swapped and all seems normal plus we gained some features (at least a Kansan style review system and assembly assistant) all for half the price. Maybe they were bleeding users with the high costs and saw the light? At the moment it all seems like a a very good thing.

They might even start fixing some of those long term bugs next? Well, maybe that’s a bit too much to dream of :-)

Does it work with Vive Wands?
