I bet that felt great! And I bet that Sandy really appreciated your care and attention. She’s beautiful. Have a good summer, Sandy!

Known troll trolling again.

That is a great perspective. If it could prevent hijacking and original design ownership exclusivity that would be excellent. Good luck!

Yeah, I agree with your take. I can see why people are annoyed with the eggs and dragons cluttering the shops.

But that being said— Most of the models I’ve seen are ones you can pay the creator for a license to print and sell it for a profit. It’s pretty easy to find that kind of deal and the contract is explicit in their listing. So, the original designers will be losing business too since they bank off of making cute model files and collect passive income from people who want to print and sell the item.

Considering how much crap is on Etsy, maybe I’m missing something, but I am not sure why the crack down now—and on 3D prints of all things.

I actually think 3D printers at home will end up replacing a lot of things that used to be shipped from China. I’m already seeing the edges of this but time will tell if that trend keeps going that way. But I 3D print so, I notice functional things I can make all the time.

I think you make a good point—I wonder what site they’ll jump to?

They’re still allowing 3D printed items if the person selling is the origin of the model. At least that’s what I gathered from the article.

Agree! And to add for OP I’m sure the Fire Marshall would love to hear about how people can’t get in or out of the building. Fire Marshall is probably the fastest option for everyone’s safety.

Good for you OP for keeping your community safe !

What do you mean by “is both”? I’m not just American. You’re making a lot of assumptions.

I was kind of hoping this would be like something with substance. But ok. If you want to change anyone’s mind Justin Timberlake isn’t the way. I don’t know why you’d work against yourself here.

Interesting. I mean, I’m sure Bernie has faults but I don’t really see the point in attacking someone who created and is holding the only tent pole for, frankly, a reasonable middle of the road candidate (if we view him in comparison to the rest of the sane world).

I get giving shit to Corey Booker. People are gray. I can list a handful of things that Corey has done lately that fit this meme.

I honestly don’t even know what this meme is referring to maybe I’m out of the loop.
But I agree with you, attacking Bernie isn’t the way. Reeks of agent provocateur.

My guess is it’s a fresh wave of propaganda to wedge the progressives. What’s new.

People don’t have to be perfect for us to join the cause and make it better. Don’t fall for it kids. We only get out of this if we ignore this bullshit and link arms.

Ps: and look, I get it if Bernie isn’t left enough for some of you. That’s ok to feel that way and it’s probably true for a good lot of you. But attacking him ain’t gonna solve the massive fuckstorm we are collectively going to go through. We either quit bullshit like this or die from factionalization. Like every other movement has in the past 95 years.

Find some other tree to bark up

The best summation of this was done in a speech by Kurt Vonnegut, Why my dog is not a humanist.

The full speech explains what you are going after.

In 1998, who could have predicted that in 2025, users would be the lords of porn pop-ups?

Forcing the Eye of Microsoft to gaze my mommy milker daddy dwarf bangers is truly the quintessential example of that which is nameless in the Tao.

Oh I see I see it’s the stump has sprouts and they will maybe grow? That’s fantastic news! I wish the tree well. It’s probably wondering what the f happened. Hadrian’s wall is a cool place to set down roots. I hope the tree is stubborn as hell and can start a new life.

They were grown ass men. Why the hell would they kill a living being like that? Trees talk to each other and they live well beyond our human years. The local area belongs more to the tree than any individual man—they’ll be here for centuries beyond us if they are lucky.

People don’t respect trees as much as they do animals and I do think that’s wrong. We should be very mindful of how we treat trees. I think we arrogantly underestimate plant life.

I’m sure some dwarves would call me a dirty elf for my feelings on this but chopping down trees like this for no reason is painful. I hope they get everything they deserve.

PugJesus deserves their own statue at this point.

Morrowind was my first Elderscrolls game. I loved morrowind and I would buy an remaster of it.

Oblivion came out when I was an adult. I sunk thousands of hours into it when it came out. It was my favorite game by far at that time.

Skyrim I didn’t enjoy. It was fine, I guess. But by the time Skyrim came around I started to see Bethesda change. Fallout 4 and then Fallout 76 sealed the deal for me turning from a Bethesda fanboy to a hater.

Overall, I do not believe Bethesda will ever put out another new original game that is polished or quality. Bethesda rips off their biggest supporters and lies to their customers.

That being said. I’m very happy with this remake. Because it’s been 20 years since I first played, I genuinely only remember a few strong moments. All the minor quests and even the main story I barely remember the details of. So, it’s nice to revisit the game as a more mature adult. I think they did a fantastic job keeping the feel the same but it looks great considering.

Can’t run it on my LegionGo that’s my only complaint. I’m happy with having bought the remastered version of Oblivion because I’m sure as hell never buying a new original game from Bethesda ever again. Not unless they do an about face.

It’s the amount of Wimps of Wallstreet that would support Champagne, even if they weren’t ever drinking Champagne themselves, that is part of issue.

You’re a genius. I’m on it.

Aw Ren you look sweet. Thanks for taking care of your owner Ren

Hey welcome! I switched over to Lemmy after 11+ years on Reddit. People actually talk to you here versus in Reddit!

To me, the Reddit experience feels like shouting into the void now. Very much like alone in a crowded room (of mostly bots). You can go back and check if your posts and comments there had been blocked from being seen by others. It’s staggering how many posts and comments are blocked over there. You can see how many posts and comments from normal Redditors are hidden here: Reveddit.

Post stuff when you feel ready too! Your posts are needed because it’s just humans here. There’s no algorithm and there aren’t any bots reposting reposts.

If you weren’t there, Lemmy feels like Reddit 10 years ago in a good way.

Welcome again, Morbitm! 😄
