    Exactly. It’s basically some “infinite monkeys with infinite typewriters” shit.

    “Well if I had enough time eventually they will make a mistake and I’d get a point on a technicality so yeah, I could totally do it!”

    This person remembers they have to serve too, right? And actually return the ball. They won’t win just standing there and praying.





  • My only issue is when apparently someone can choose that “they”, a gender neutral pronoun, doesn’t apply to someone. I saw it in a recent Elliot Page post. Someone was getting ripped to shreds for talking about Elliot and saying “they”. “No it’s him! You’re trying to minimize his identity!” was basically the response. But the person was talking about Elliots work pre and post transition and you could tell they were taking great care to not offend, and yet it was still offensive apparently. Which was then made even funnier when others chimed in to point out that Elliot specifically asks to be referred to as “They/Him”.

    My whole point is that some people need to cool it when it comes to gender neutral pronouns. Lest we forget, “I’m a dude, he’s a dude, she’s a dude, we’re all dudes!”

    As for my ender: the quality control isn’t great. Sometimes you get a bad one and I think that was most of my issue. It had a nasty habit of diving straight into the heat bed. Might’ve been the autoleveler… I dunno. I just know I spent more time tinkering with the printer itself than actually printing. With my Bambus it really is “set it and forget it” for the most part.

    As for the dino: Lots of bondo and glue, yes lol. I’ll see if I can find it later. It’s on makerworld and you can find it in the Bambu app as well if you search around. He mentioned how much faster it was to print the pieces on his Bambu vs his ender and with the multicolor support, I was sold. My X1C currently runs 2 AMS so I rarely have to swap colors out too.

    It does have a purpose. I found the name of it once, but it’s basically choice confirmation. When you buy something and then shortly after see lots of ads of other people who bought the same thing and are really happy with it/it appears popular, it confirms to you that you made the right choice and should make it again if given the chance. This kind of “confirmation after the fact” advertising is especially used in larger purchases like a car. It reinforces the choice you made in your mind so you feel more satisfied with the brand itself.
