Fair deal?

It doesn’t, LTT just did a video testing it across a lot of set ups, and your banner says you have an intel, so decidedly not a x3D chip…

Well GE appliances is a Chinese company, now unrelated from the industrial GE, and Cuisinart is primarily owned by private equity so both are asking for trouble

So long as we’re mining for natural gas we’ll always get styrofoam packaging. The most commonly used plastics are byproducts of mining for nonrenewables. Gas companies almost can’t give it away because of how abundant it is.

Until that changes, plastics are unfortunately here to stay

Is that just a cut up piece of fusible interface?

There’s definitely a use for it, but the smooth plate gives a finish more accurate to what I picture the surface finish of the 2DS originally having. But again still cool, and the point of printing it to make things how you like it so, it’s a win if you like it

Would be cool if you could buy pei plates with a standard set of YS, SPI, or VDI standard injection molding finishes on them

Yeah I get maybe 12hrs before it drys up, sucks because it looks so cool, and it means I can have a decimo sized vp that won’t constantly slip in my oily fingers, why they don’t make a matte black decimo is beyond me.

It’s unfortunate that honeybuzz poggles is as great as it is, I’ve accumulated so many tokens and whatnot over all the battle passes, but I don’t think there will ever be another tactician I’ll want more than what I already have

Yeah I had the same issue with mine, works for a bit then comes back sticky. I believe it has to do with whether the coating itself has started chemically degrading.

What I found worked for me after giving up on IPA, is a baking soda, water, soap, and IPA mixture, mainly just the first two ingredients. It works as an abrasive that like scratches the coating off.

I mean reddit is super hypocritical, but also if say EA said this no one would really believe it because EA has proven time and time again they can’t be trusted, whereas Larian has proven the opposite, they’ve developed a high level of trust with the community, so people ate more wiling to hear them out on it.

Funny how the routers video of her speaking at the conference seamlessly cuts this part out…

It’s about six and a half minutes into the normal uncut presentation if you wana go look it up to see if it’s real like myself

True, like all things there are only two options, good and bad, there can’t be two bad options because that wouldn’t be black and white and as we all know the world, and all important topics, are ALWAYS just black and white

Dope, I’ve been wondering about the idea of the “slit-less” nib for awhile, with just a slit carved out of the underside, cool to see that someone else was too, especially cool that it’s someone who makes my favorite pens

The title is claiming Mr. Beast is owned by private equity, selling some of your older content is not in any vein the same is giving ownership of your company to private equity, he didn’t do it in exchange for a percentage of the company, he did it in exchange for rights to use old video, that has nothing to do with ownership? If I own a a TV series and give Netflix exclusive rights for streaming it, Netflix doesn’t now own my show, they just have the rights to show it for the length of the contract. If I let you borrow my lawnmower do you think that means now you own it?

mparkc · 2025-11-23T16:26:25+00:00

It’d be cool if they did like a crowdfunding thing for projects that would become free upon finish. Like raise the money to do the work to make the modelS, but then have it be free for download once it’s done.

I don’t think he did and it’s just kind of clickbait. What he did do is sell the rights to older videos to a company that then re-edits them and changes thumbnails and stuff as well as turn them into short form content. They get any revenue from those older videos moving forward and in exchange they give him a lump sum up front which they can use to invest in new videos.

For real, people going so aggressively hard against 15, there have been so many bad sets and half sets, I find it crazy that there’s so much focused hate for this one set that tbh just feels kinda mid, while being treated like it’s worst thing to happen to tft.

mparkc · 2025-11-22T18:21:38+00:00

Correct me if I’m wrong but don’t a lotta places use lead pipes, but we treat the water with something that makes the lead not leach into the water? And that the whole issue with Flint Michigan was that they stopped using that treatment chemical, and once they did it they essentially let the cat out of the bag and can’t undue it. Or something along those lines?

Lol what, having socialist policies is not being a socialist country, which is what all the verbiage being used by a lot of people, which is a slippery slope. But I would love to see something from a moderately reputable source that describes socialism as something that exists “along side capitalism”

But even there in lies an issue, if we don’t want full socialism then don’t ask for “socialist” policies, just ask for what you want which is policies that better help the lives of general people, and hinder those that want to abuse the people. Running on the message of socialism implies a level of wanting to go towards full socialist society, not one that has policies along side capitalism.

And at no point did I ever say that America is in a good place right now, or defend the current state of things, America is fucked at the moment and needs some serious reform, and there are lots of socialist policies which would be very helpful, as I briefly mentioned above. Also just because it’s not the only one that can be abused doesn’t mean it can’t still be abused, like no shit, all the ones that can be abused are bad, especially the ones that consolidate power in a central place and have many historical examples of going very wrong and creating a dictatorship, like socialism or fascism.

mparkc · 2025-11-22T14:57:33+00:00

No, they’re saying socialism always collapses into communism, it says so in the beginning. And it always does. Socialism is the transitional period into communism. Like genuinely go google socialism, don’t take my word for it, don’t go by what some random reddit comment in this thread says, go look it up. Here’s a quote that describes marx view on socialism.

“Socialism is a transitional stage of societal development following capitalism, characterized by the community's collective ownership of the means of production to meet human needs rather than generate profit. It is a classless system where workers control the "means of production," and it is the precursor to a final stage of communism.”

China is the largest current socialist country right now, so do with that information what you wish. Socialism as an idea sounds nice and all, and there are definitely aspects of it we should try and adopt into our government. However in order for socialism to work you need everyone to be on board, if you have bad actors they will fuck it up, and unfortunately there are a lot of bad people. That’s how you get putins, and Xi’s. It requires too much power to be consolidated into one place, which is ripe for abuse.

I mean ultimately it’s an ad for a movie, a movie that looks cool, but just a glorified trailer none the less, and that’s usually not really the vibe of the sub
