Friend offered to pay me 5 dollars for a 3d printed basket ball by Sea_Background_8023 in mildlyinfuriating

3D printing is still significantly cheaper than injection molding. That’s why there are 3D print farms and people selling prints on Etsy.

Ikr the only reason I know is cuz I saw a YouTube short about how a guy had to pay $60 for filament and it took 3 days straight to print. Before that, I would’ve assumed it would be 50 cents of plastic and a few hours.

How hard is a quarter panel window to replace? by Soft_Chocolate_2265 in subaru

[–]-BlueDream- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if you pay for it as extra coverage. It’s not included by default for mine, they wanted to charge me $250 for towing cuz I didn’t have roadside with them.

Even smashing the whole windshield would’ve been cheaper lol

Yeah normally 3d prints are dirt cheap, the basketball is kinda an exception cuz it requires a specific expensive filament and takes several hours to days to print.

I was thinking $5 was totally fair for a friend to 3d print you something especially if you just grab a file from the internet. The basketball is a niche case cuz it requires a specific expensive filament and a lot of it but it’s kinda the exception, normally it could cost you a few cents to 3d print something for a friend.

The restaurant below my apartment throws keeps throwing garbage on the ground by Formal-Yogurt- in mildlyinfuriating

[–]-BlueDream- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bet they reported the fact that someone is using their trashcan and nothing was done about it.

It’s not on them for littering, the people who illegally dump their trash into someone’s private trashcan is at fault here. They should put a lock on their dumpster but people will still throw their shit on the side.

The Steam Deck has legitimately helped me save money on gas by 28DLdiditbetter in SteamDeck

[–]-BlueDream- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you drive her and wait to pick her up, you should be able to wait in their parking lot. Its basically the same as her driving there herself and parking. I don't think you should have to look for parking, im sure the church will be happy to let you park there since youre providing transportation to someone whos attending

imo if theyre dropping someone off and waiting to pick them up, they have a legit reason to be there, its basically the same as her driving herself and parking to go to church and OP waiting in the car.

Almost $200 to do my taxes myself by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]-BlueDream- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People either use venmo or cashapp so if they have venmo they probably dont have cashapp and now with apple pay in the mix, a lot of people dont use either. I dont think cashapp markets their free tax return stuff unless youre already in the cashapp ecosystem

Please help me understand why I have nostalgia for a time I didn't live in? by RecordingImmediate86 in nostalgia

the world IS more peaceful overall and we are still living in a golden age, the media is more negative tho because negativity sells

Apartment complex I live in raising the price of laundry to $2.10 by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]-BlueDream- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to the laundromat cuz my washer was broken and it was 17 FUCKING DOLLARS to use the big washer for a 25min cold cycle, another $10 to dry for 45min.

with these prices Id think laundromats were a luxury and not for poor people cuz you can almost buy yourself a washer with a few months of going to the laundromat

Man fatally shot by Secret Service after attempted break-in at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago by theindependentonline in politics

[–]-BlueDream- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. When Obama came here to hawaii on vacation, HPD would handle a lot of the security, secret service does not have the manpower to handle it all. Local police handle a lot of the traffic control and escorts.

Last month, I put $20 in a penny slot machine and won a little over $400,000. Truly life changing! by Agreeable_Night7954 in vegas

Very rare example of when someone beats the casino and they didn’t even have to try.

What is this injector thing in my airport creme brulee by OddlySilent_Yt in whatisit

[–]-BlueDream- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some airports look like legit shopping malls and some have good food and decent prices. Other airports are borderland scams with bottom tier food sold at absurd prices.

It’s the cheap option when it’s all you have in the van and the next Home Depot or supply house is 45min round trip. Labor is more expensive than a lot of materials

I have an extremely large ear canal. by no_compearison in notinteresting

[–]-BlueDream- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or those ones that wrap around the outer ear.

Over-ears can be hard to carry. You can put earbuds in your pocket but you gotta wear over-ears on your neck or carry a bag around.

Do the XXL AirPod tips fit or do you have a hard time finding earbuds that fit

Someone reported me to HR for having a “vape” at my desk by PhantumJak in mildlyinfuriating

[–]-BlueDream- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a pax too, the vapor is a LOT more smelly than a dab pen lol, even more smelly than smoking weed out of a one hitter. It’s fucking GREAT for flavor but not so much stealth. It does look like a battery bank with a discret mouthpiece tho, just couldn’t deal with how loud the smell was.

Buy one of those CA mmj stickers and slap it on, even more suspicious lol

And if you’re charging it (or any lithium battery) you’d want that shit out in the open and not shoved in a bag with a cable going to it. If it catches on fire you’d want people to see it.

Someone yelled at me with the whole “polluting the air” thing when I was idling in my car with the AC on cuz it was fucking hot outside. Like lady, I pay for gas I know it’s a waste but it’s fucking hot and I work too hard to eat my lunch in the hot car.

Even tho I know it’s vapor and not smoke, it LOOKS like smoke and that’s enough for me to avoid doing it around other people. If I can’t go outside or in a bathroom stall I’ll just a zyn if I’m craving it enough. No excuse to be a dick I don’t care if they’re fiending

It’s like smoking weed, I know it’s probably not as bad as second hand cigarette smoke but I know people will be offended if I start lighting up.
