STFU about that until after the primary. It’s 100% inappropriate right now.

Not after the recent SCOTUS ruling, they won’t!

Notice how the article subtly carries water for the liberals/fascists by only mentioning Bottoms (a liberal) as the opposition, while leaving out any progressive or leftist ones.

The effective opposition to the fascists would be somebody like Jason Esteves (of the candidates whose names I recognize, anyway), not Bottoms.

You mean, before employers stole our paid lunch breaks and gaslit everyone into forgetting about them.

Since Dodge v. Ford Motor Co (1919), if not earlier.

How old counts as “classic?” I’ve been using plain ol’ “up to 10%” in my '90…

My Ender 3 required a little bit of assembly (attaching the Z-axis frame and the control panel, along with associated wires), but my Monoprice one came completely assembled. It was literally just plug it in, check the bed for level (which wasn’t automatic, but also required little to no adjustment out of the box), feed in some filament, and then print the lucky cat gcode that came on the SD card.

Headline is inaccurate. It should read “GOP rep humiliates herself”

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck!

That’s never been a guarantee, and because of Trump, it’s becoming even less so by the day.

His continued lack of incarceration has a corrosive effect on the entire legal system.

It’s not “for repairs.” It is, itself, damage.

Case in point: your bullshit comment.

“Oh, it couldn’t possibly be her shitty policy positions; it had to have been because of her race and gender!”

Fuck all the way off with your soft bigotry of low expectations.

That’s hardly the point, though. It’s fucking absurd and an absolute indictment of our entire society that it’s even in double digits!

The orcas have only been going after small sailboats (the kind small enough for a middle-class family to afford, if they own it instead of a house and live aboard full-time). They aren’t the class conscious anti-oligarch crusaders everybody wants them to be.

I remember reading someone getting taken down because they were asking how to extrude instead of pad while they were on the ‘part design’ workbench

Why are those even two different things at all?!

Those two would probably never have gotten started if not for how easy the Bambus are. It took me a month to get decent results off my first printer and they were up and running in a few hours tops.

I’ve got to admit, I’ve never understood that sort of issue. I’ve owned two 3D printers, a Monoprice MP Select Mini (bought back when it was the only ‘cheap’ printer in existence… holy shit, probably almost a decade ago) and a Creality Ender 3 V3 SE (because it was the best ‘cheap’ printer as of a couple years ago), and both of them gave me decent prints pretty much out of the box. After bed leveling, obviously, but without any other weird hardware adjustment or excessive experimentation with slicer settings.

I feel like the vaunted ‘superior ease of use’ of the Bambu stuff is overblown, but IDK, maybe I’ve just been lucky.

Even in the context of having only experienced certain other CAD software a little bit (e.g. SolidEdge for one class in college, SketchUp for making maybe a handful of models, total), FreeCAD really is worse to use. It’s not just the UI, (although it is partly that and it is genuinely worse, not just neutrally different), it’s that stuff just starts breaking whenever you try to do anything even slightly complex (even after the “topological naming fix”), and that the workflow is just annoyingly internally inconsistent.

For example, you can make a sketch and then apply constraints to it and it’s all well and good, but then you extrude it and suddenly you have to declare the height by setting the properties of the extrude instead of using a constraint or dimension. I assume there’s some kind of workaround involving declaring variables in the data table thing I can’t remember the name of or how to access right now, but it shouldn’t have to be that way. You ought to be able to do things like create a cube by declaring an X edge to be the same length as a Y edge to be the same length as a Z edge using the same tool to set both relationships.

And this is coming from somebody who refuses to use proprietary CAD as a matter of principle at this point, and therefore really, really wants to like FreeCAD.

I like “I Like To Make Stuff” on Youtube, but it annoys the Hell out of me that he plugs Autodesk Fusion 360 all the time (to the point that he even sells his own course teaching how to use it). On the bright side, at least he uses Prusa instead of Bambu, but still, the Autodesk shilling is almost enough to make me quit watching his channel.
