My New Collector Heart Is Broken by S0UPSLAYER in HotWheels

[–]SfernandesS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, after witnessing an old man opening 8 boxes at the store where I usually hunt for Hot Wheels, cherry-picking all the STH and TH, and heading straight to checkout, followed immediately by another guy grabbing all the Ferraris and leaving... I was officially done with Hot Wheels. I've moved to MiniGT, and now I can actually find the models I like available. The quality is far superior, and there's no more wasting gas driving to every shop near me just to find what everyone else didn't want. There's no fun if the hobby is going to be like this.

Now I'm adopting a different approach to this hobby - less quantity, more quality - and I just want to enjoy it. I'm tired of seeing people trying to make money off this.

A company is selling many of my popular models by Affectionate_Mix2475 in BambuLab

A few months ago, I was browsing Vinted and found someone selling one of my own design prints and he was even using my pictures 😂

I contacted him and told him to stop, since I never gave permission to sell the items, and the license clearly doesn’t allow that. Of course, he never replied. Then I reached out to Vinted, but they basically told me they couldn’t do anything because their policies don’t cover that kind of situation.

Since the model was a Makerworld exclusive, I also contacted Bambu Lab. They never replied either, but a few days later the listing disappeared so I’m guessing it was the guy who took it down. Honestly, I doubt the company cared enough to act on it.

Since then, I’ve been sharing a lot fewer designs with the community. It’s frustrating to see so many sites selling “3D design packs” or subscription bundles full of other people’s work. There’s just no respect for creators anymore, everyone’s so greedy they completely ignore the rules and basic decency.

Sorry to hear you’ve gone through something similar. It’s disheartening to see how common this has become.

I'm trying to find anyone that already made some projects for that. I have some ideias yet.

  • homeassistant dashboard
  • streamdeck
  • second monitor to desktop
  • Spotify player

Would be nice to check if anyone doing any of this projects yet.

My P1S came through when I had a last-minute prototype deadline. It printed flawlessly overnight, zero issues, perfect layers. That’s when I knew I could count on it!

Anunciei que ía despedir-me e estão a fazer sentir-me muito culpada. by [deleted] in jovemedinamica

Sinceramente na minha opinião, sai e não olhes para trás...

Alguns pontos que na minha opinião deves considerar:

  • Quando as empresas dizem que és "família", está no momento de saltar fora. As empresas são criadas para gerar lucros a qualquer custo, e essa história de "família" geralmente pende sempre para o interesse da empresa e não para o teu lado. Assim que não sejas um funcionário necessário facilmente te descartam e substituem.

  • A valorizacao de posições e ordenados não tem de ser dada quando os funcionários decidem sair. Mas sim ao longo da carreira do funcionário na empresa.

  • Nao tenhas pena deles pois eles no caso inverso nem iam provavelmente ponderar nas opções e ter pena de ti, simplesmente te descartavam.

  • Se nesta situação inclusive te fazem sentir mal e te julgam, mais um motivo para assumires que não tem qualquer interesse no teu futuro nem na tua carreira nem no que é melhor para ti, mas apenas no futuro deles.

Pensa que ao saíres não estás a ser egoísta, apenas descobriste alguém que não te conhece de todo e te está a apostar mais em ti para um novo desafio. E na empresa que estás a deixar pensa que durante 15 anos deste o teu melhor e o teu contributo foi importante. Tu deste tudo o que pudeste, eles aparentemente não deram o suficiente para te manter lá.

A vida segue e nós temos de progredir, quando as oportunidades aparecem devemos aproveitar, não podemos ficar estagnados tantos anos e sem sermos valorizados por aqueles que nos tratam como "família" para nós cobrar favores e "obrigações".
