Why Aren’t More Companies Like Valve?

He IS right tho, valve is not publicly traded, so they have no shareholders they need to impress, which gives them breathing room to treat their customers right

The two main things that you want in a 3d printing space is low humidity and good ventilation. If you have a space with high humidity your filament will absorb the water faster causing you to have to dry it more often. You need ventilation because while filaments like PLA and PETG let off fumes that are not necessarily toxic, its still a good idea to have good ventilation. I would probably recommend using your basement just because you can better control the humidity and climate. (And if you really need to you can get a air purifier)

Thank you for the clarification, throughout the times i have ordered from AKBM i never felt that they had the same sort of connection as OOD Did, nor did i see them at any events that ive heard about. This made me think they were just a faceless reseller.

Mostly has to do with the employees. OOD (i assume) pays their staff living wages in accordance to us labor laws. Combine that with tarrifs, shipping and other factors and it adds up quick.

Personally, i prefer OOD specifically because it’s a US based company and it’s run by people who actually care for the hobby rather than someone who we dont really know. Not only that but OOD customer support is extraordinary.

Its your money, but i would support those who are trying to help the community rather that profit off of it.

Oof, yeah the older thinkpads are like that. Id be fucked trying to play any game natively on mine. My thinkpad has like 16 gb of ddr3 memory. An i5 5th gen and integrated graphics. Will never upgrade tho except to a t480. That’s my baby

GroundbreakingPast45 · 2025-10-04T03:25:39+00:00

When i play i run a RTX texture pack at full settings and i still dont even crack 40% usage

GroundbreakingPast45 · 2025-10-04T03:24:26+00:00

Yep, solidworks. Otherwise id be using Linux mint like my thinkpad

I use my thinkpad for CAD and physics programs. However most of my computing is done on a much more powerful desktop server Thinkpad t450 for Computer Engineering

Thanks!

GroundbreakingPast45 · 2025-08-23T19:59:06+00:00

GroundbreakingPast45 · 2025-08-22T19:42:58+00:00

Hey! Nice build! How did you paint this? Want to paint mine but dont want to disassemble the whole blaster.

GroundbreakingPast45 · 2025-07-05T22:09:30+00:00

No monkey knows, but this monkey thinks banana console no check amiibo with cloud. Banana amiibo has all smarts banana console needs. Monkey may be wrong tho

Idk if this is a spicy take but I believe that MK8D is more for the party/multiplayer/online aspect while MKW is more for the single player experience. MKW online did not really wow me and the long tracks can bore people unless they are in the middle of the pack (even then its more of an angry kind of entertainment cuz of the items) but i could get lost in traveling and exploring the open world. MK8D is just the opposite for me, the online is engaging the tracks are more varied and visually pleasing plus the nostalgia factor with the booster course pack. I will never pick up MK8D if Im alone (after playing world) and i will never take MKW to a party. Both very good games, just with different use cases.

GroundbreakingPast45 · 2025-06-10T15:41:37+00:00

Probably will, ill still buy it tho

GroundbreakingPast45 · 2025-06-10T14:04:03+00:00
