Nailed it. Very well said.

Great response. Apologies for my initial defensiveness. Most of what I see here is “well then do something about it” so I was just trying to head that off.

I agree with you. And yeah, it was always propaganda from like the 1960s onward at a minimum. Nixon fucked us over and we’ve been going downhill since.

Any Americans still defending this playground for pedophile billionaires are idiots who refuse to look critically at this place for even a second, and are likely part of the problem. Fuck em. There’s not much to be proud of here. Some small things, mostly local, but nothing on a national scale.

American here. Those of us with any sense don’t care anymore about being a superpower. We know we’re a fuckin joke on the world stage. We just want a working country but we know we’ll likely never see that again in our lifetimes.

And yeah yeah, “then do something about it” is easily said. Getting people across thousands of miles to gather in one place with no affordable travel infrastructure is intensely difficult.

Such a great game. The calculation of where enemy forces are is a constantly entertaining puzzle, and when you finally fire the cannon… hnnnng. Its like the first time you fire the super shotgun in DOOM 2.

Been doing it for years. It works in my experience.

“Enshitification Advances” was right there.

I didn’t realize they used slop art in this one. Which I guess was the point of them dodging the tag. That really makes me unhappy. Guess I’ll ammend my raying on the game.

No it isn’t. At least Lecter is smart and understands cause and effect.

100% correct. I’m watching her Tender Loving Care video now and it’s just a wild ride.

Oh same. I was definitely grumpy about it, but I just couldn’t spend 3x the price for a Prusa at the time, even though I love them and really, really want one.

Right? I plan to alert the relevant sec folks today.

The short version is that I’ve had two of their printers and both failed due to mainboard issues, and I got no help with either after six months of getting the runaround, escalating, providing video evidence, etc. They sent me a mainboard replacement for one which also failed within days, and their solution was to send me a used printer that was the next class up in size, but two versions back. MicroCenter took pity on me after I showed them the 100+ email chain and refunded the printer fully even though I was well outside of the return period. I’ll never buy a single Elegoo product ever again.

It does, but you do need to apply a quick hack to get access to SSH and the Klipper web interface for some reason. Slightly annoying, but it was the best of all the options I had in my price range at the time.

Yep. An LG Ultragear monitor I’ve owned for about a year and a half just installed its crap somehow this morning on my work laptop which it’s been connected to for that long. I’m pretty sure however it’s doing it somehow bypassed the group policy and controls my company is enforcing on it. There’s no way they’ve white listed that kind of bloatware crap with how locked down they need to have these devices.

Second Sovol, and I would also recommend the Anycubic Kobra S1 - its been a great lil printer for me over the last year. Avoid Creality and Elegoo like the plague.

It didnt. He was a supreme shitbag before the stroke. He just went even harder mask-off after.

I use Youmail. It’s not cheap, but it does a good job with spam blocking and transcription.

Saaame. I got so angry when they canceled it. It broke my trust in them to deliver an end to any shows. Then they kept doing it. Left quite a long time ago and will not go back. There’s just nothing worth the money on Neflix.

Valid. Carry on.

While that’s horrible and should not be happening at all…

…w…why’s…why’s the Reddit Alien is so caked up?
