It's incredibly intuitive. An adult soccer field is 1.8 acres and a foot is... the size of a man's foot. I can visualize this volume.
Meanwhile, an acre foot is 1283 m^3. I don't have intuition for that volume measurement.
Magna-tiles are a big hit in our house. My kids and every kid we have over likes them. Better than legoes because they're more fragile, so they don't get locked up into projects for months.
Compiling Qt with the right switches is hard enough, before you throw in cross compiling on top. Since you only need to compile a new Qt release once every few months, why optimize the process? Just kick it off and go to sleep. I don't modify core Qt libraries ever. If I was iterating on Qt itself, I would definitely figure out cross compiling. Anyways if you come up with such a working cross-compile recipe, you should post it some place.
Compiling qt on the pi is an overnight sort of thing. I think it took 12+ hours when I did it on a pi4. Thankfully, once it's compiled, you don't have to compile again until you next version bump.
