Interesting, thanks. I guess a major element in how feasible that would be is in the administrative structure a community would use in deciding who gets what materials. Obviously if it's a representative democracy, there's huge incentive for corruption of the representatives if they have absolute control of who gets what. Wouldn't this be considered a state, though? I guess statelessness is another aspect that doesn't make much sense to me.

Thanks, I guess it's the "get whatever they want" part that doesn't make much sense to me. What if what I want is astronomical, and I want to get it by doing as little work as possible? Who says whether I can or can't have it?

This is an aspect I'm genuinely curious about (as someone who is relatively uneducated on this subject) because my answer would be that yes, there will definitely be people who want to regress. There have always been individuals who are willing to sacrifice absolutely anything to obtain more material wealth or power. They're a minority, but their existence has to be assumed and accounted for. For all of capitalism's failings, one of its strengths is that it does give these people a path to follow that produces (some) benefit to society. How does a fully-implemented communist society deal with these individuals without them subverting and corrupting the system?

Is this gonna be one of those weird cases where evaluation of the assignment happens before the ternary operator?

Looks doesn't matter 😎

Ultimate 196 hack revealed

OpenSCAD is definitely easier, and I still like it too. I started learning build123d because I wanted fillets and splines, and because you can reference the properties of an existing object (like height) when making another object. Those have always been big drawbacks of openscad for me.

If you know how to program, build123d is a FOSS option that isn't FreeCAD! You can create objects directly from Python code, including fillets and chamfers! I've been playing around with it a lot and while there's definitely a learning curve, it's pretty powerful! There's a VS Code addon that allows you to visualize what you're working on and visually debug as well. I can do a lot of things I couldn't do in OpenSCAD (which is another easier code cad option).

This is amazing. I think the "wandering muppet comet" is my favorite detail

Don't blame me, I voted for Gorzac
