Hi -- My name is -- What? -- My name is -- Who? My name is Wicky wicky

His bowel movement?

those are tokens not lines of code....

Plus they made the whole industry weird and obfuscated like bulk produce or something even though it didn't need weird distribution models and dark unseen players in every corner of every ad bought and seen. Why is it this way? I honestly don't know. How did advertisers willingly make it that way over just paying site owners or 1 aggregator or something... I guess Facebook has kind of become that now

I didn't check but the threads on the hotend are in good shape. It must have unscrewed itself. I think I can barely see some threads in the picture.

mostly out of the box one of these https://kingroon.com/products/official-kingroon-kp5l-3d-printer

Correct.

I had just put it on hot earlier that day. I must not have tightened it fully I don't have any other explanation.

Nope -- right side is blob, left is nozzle

Zoom in -- That is the nozzle itself on the print!!!! lol

Hey China I made you this sweet horse statue in the form of an x86 processor -- You should put it in the town square to show it off and then all go to sleep....

I see 1 class action where the consumers get screwed and the company gets a slap on the wrist

Corporations are people and they have so much more money and time to fund their interests than individuals do.

I do agree video games are the best bang for buck entertainment by a mile

The non cosmetic Paradox DLCs fundamentally change the games so if you want to actually play the latest version of the game with all the mechanics you have to get them all. You can get them on steam sale usually for like 50 bucks a couple times a year.

I'm not defending it -- It is what colors me most against DLCs.

I still just don't like the idea of it -- Why not do a DLC for movies and paintings and books? It feels wrong to fork a work of art or say "Oh sorry I didn't actually make it all here's the other 20%"

Come to think of it -- Movie sequels are kind of like that these days where it's just one story broken up instead of multiple separate stories. I wish we just did 4 hour movies with intermission but I'm sure I'm alone there.

I didn't even buy the Rimworld DLCs and I have 500+ hours! I did look at them but didn't buy. Now that DF is graphical I mostly just play that now tbh.

DF is a great example -- 15+ years updates no DLCs unless you count the steam release.

Yeah I don't think so -- Sequels are the thing you're supposed to have I think. Everyone drooling over having subscriptions since MMOs sucks and it really looks like the whole culture of the industry is pretty shitty in a lot of ways

E: I guess expansions can be good so you don't have to be an EA sports franchise if you're not changing the engine a bunch. Other than EUIV though, whose expansions are a money grab way to make the game cost 150 bucks, I haven't ever played DLC I can think of.

There are lots of new indie games that feel old but have modern QoL improvements and stuff. Go find a category in steam and only look at overwhelmingly positive and take a look.

JRPGs and the like are tough for me now because of how slow the gameplay is -- You might try an emulator with a fast-forward mode or something.
