Am late to the game here but after reading the article I would agree.

I use it off and on if I am looking up formulas and scripts and find it a great tool for work. It saves a ton of time. It works great and haven’t noticed any change there. Request it to give/write you a specific formula to solve X and it will. It’s a huge time saver.

But I’ve found recently if I am trying to just find information on a subject that I want summarized or something found on the web and explained it will often ‘recommend I check out the company’s website for the latest news or recent developments.’

That last statement was an exact quote I got recently that made me laugh when I went asking for the explanation of how something worked. It was a NO SHIT SHERLOCK moment I had after getting several of these sort of replies.

I mean I har gotten detailed explanations of string theory ages back from ChatGPI and now it’s telling me ‘ummm just go look it up - I can’t right now..m

At this point she would probably garner a few more votes for him.

It’s almost like he could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and wouldn't lose voters

Someone has been reading too many Warhammer 40k novels.

Anyone wanna place a bet on how long it will be before the porn on there gets banned for good?

I know what Spez said about keeping it but he has lied before.

My bet is once they nail down the investors for the IPO, Reddit users are going to see a sharp shift in moderating - including what is allowed regarding NSFW/NSFL content.

Oh oh…better yet how about the Dark Pope

Or the Anti-Pope. 😈

Everything in the US has become either ‘fighting terror’ or for ‘saving the children’

If you complain about any of the draconian measures that keep encroaching on our liberties then you are not a patriot or you are some sort of child hating monster.

Interesting how times have changed and our government here has twisted our constitution. Our founding fathers are no doubt rolling in their graves.

Anyone that thinks this wasn’t intentional is a fool. They are just testing the waters.

Bad feedback? Then shelve it and try it again in a couple years. Regardless, Pandora’s box as been opened and all the other game companies now will be eyeing this new ‘feature’ for future implementation real soon.

I don’t think so, I thought I just made it up unless I subconsciously copied it by accident.

Imagine being in this guy’s regiment.

‘Hello comrade, what brings you to us?’

‘Nothing much, murdered a few people. Ate someone, you know.’

Something…something…needs more good guys with samurai swords…

I did read the article but maybe I am confused so feel free to clarify for me.

The article states:

‘Apple extends Emergency SOS via satellite for an additional free year for existing iPhone 14 users’

So the implication is it isn’t free after that time. What about other iPhone users? Is this free for everyone irregardless who has any model iPhone or just the 14?

It really blows my mind that Apple doesn’t offer this as a free service for owners of the phone. I mean can you imagine this as a selling point for parents alone?

I tend to agree about the down cote it if you disagree with it. I tend to just leave the thread or try not to comment to avoid silly online arguments.

However, if I read something posted that is obviously misleading or someone is just outright lying, then downvote away!

So Ramaswamy thought the South Park movie was a documentary?

As much as I have been on the EU’s side on every case that they’ve had against Apple. This should be a giant red flag that Google is pushing this so hard.

I always highly recommend Iwata. I have a couple different models of their brushes and love them both.

I was a solely a bristle person myself until about 5-6 years ago and had gotten a couple cheapy air brushes that did not work out very well so I decided to try that brand and have been in love ever since.

The Iwata are easy to take apart and clean, easy to find extra parts and if you take care of them you typically don’t have any issue with them.

I use mine originally painting GW minis but moved on to 3d prints that I do as well. I have a couple different ones - both I picked up during sales around this time of year. One has more of wider needle that I use for priming and base coating and the other I keep for more detail work.

You will probably want an air compressor too. I have had this one for years and it is only now beginning to show signs of wear. Am sure some people on here might have other recommendations but this one has done a great job for me as a decent starter:

Master Airbrush Air Compressor TC-40T

I also have a Badger that I bought several years ago after reading a Black Friday ad that I believe was posted on Reddit. The quality is meh. Some people swear by the Badger brand name but the one I got looks and feels cheap compared to the two Iwata models I got.

The other, sort of weird thing: I remember emailing their customer service a question when I got it. Nothing that I thought was out of the ordinary just a ‘hey guys, I got a question as to what came with this Black Friday deal’

Whoever replied basically gave me a piss off email of sorts. I got this reply back telling me that was what I had ordered and that was what I got!

I just chuckled and thought, someone is having a bad day but marked it up as not to buy another of their product. Later I ran across similar posts on Reddit and other sites about people having fun times with their customer service. Whether or not the have changed, I dunno. I have stuck with Iwata and Vallejo products ever since.

I definitely will agree with you there but why on earth would anyone pay these assholes to pretend that they would give you some privacy?

The irony is they mine us for our private data, track us, sell it, then have the gall to demand to charge us back for use of their services.

That’s why I get so pissed when this comes up or when adblocking on any other service rears its head (looking at you YouTube).

People are quick to forget that these services are following you everywhere you go. Looking through your contacts. Reading your mail. Delving into every nook and cranny of your private life and selling it all.

Instead of giving them a dime, invest in a VPN, a good Adblocker and other resources.

Just don’t use it - it’s not that hard.

Looks great!!

I got the files and started printing mine but got sidetracked so I did not get it done.

One question though. Did you have to scale the helmet parts any or how was the fit?
