  • I’ve had a 3D printer about a year now. I’d say I’ve gotten my money’s worth: I’ve printed generally useful things that aren’t just gimmicks.

    But I also think I’ve been pretty lucky - there are some problems that I just don’t have the patience to deal with right now, for example some materials just don’t adhere to the bed. But I haven’t had anything fundamental that would make me really pissed off.

    I could have totally seen myself in the same position as you if I ended up with a dud printer or something. It’s getting a lot better but it’s certainly not an instant plug-and-play device for most people.

  • This is a classic Internet example of making up a hypothetical argument so you can make a point, despite the hypothetical argument being completely untrue and irrelevant.

    Happens all the time these days.

  • I think if it’d stayed, we’d have been talking about applying it to cable, rather than just forgetting it existed in the first place.

    There’s certainly no direct link, but I think it indirectly changed the conversation around what society deemed acceptable in news media.

  • Back during early COVID there were a bunch of people caught out not having anywhere to work from in their home.

    That to me suggested a lot about where phone and tablet usage have gone, and where desktop and laptop usage has now gone. It seems a lot people see laptops and computers as specialist devices.

    There are at least four computers and three laptops in my house, but not chance my friends have that.
