At some point the toys would fail, they were 8 and 9 year olds after all, but it could take a month or more in the hands of children. I was pretty shocked. I did have a paper wad cannon that had a spring that was printed all in one inside the barrel. The first few had issues with the compression spring breaking when over compressed by the kids. But a bit of a redesign of the spring by making it beefier, it not only lasted nearly the whole school year but the kids got more range. Much to the other teachers and parents disappointment.

I’ve Printed LOTS of PLA living hinges and even springs. They do work just fine for the limited to moderate cycles they last. I’ve printed 100’s of toy catapults and other small toys in PLA and then handed them out to 8 and 9 year old children. They held up amazingly well under that abuse.

You do realize that human touch can differentiate between .01mm? It’s why braille works so easily.

There is a psychology to using cringy memes. Can’t use them all the the time, and you need to fit the right cringe into the right place, but when you hit it, it does tend to make them remember a point they might not have.

Much of teaching a classroom full of kids effectively involves a perverse mix of psychological warfare, manipulation, and entertainment. You should try it some time.

Joke’s on the kids—It’s the cringe I’m aiming for. I live to hear the groans and see the eye rolls.

Like the Linux kernel, the cow is merely a means to an end in this example.

Been there, done that, and nope.

That sadly, most wouldn’t “get” the point of.

Orca has it’s charms for sure. I really like the scarf joint. But PursaSlicer still gives me the cleanest prints. But it’s drifting away from my trusty old and well used Mk3s+.

Sorry, wrong person response My bad. But the point stands.

But not all are “christian” as YOU put it…

Kind of like the butcher who got his hands dirty cutting a steak and then a Michelin star chef cooking it for you.

One got his hands bloody. The other made it delectable for you to eat.

Which is more important to the process?

They call that type of “no currency” economy bartering. It works well for peer to peer transactions. Not quite so well for larger ones.

You mean Judaeo-Christian Islamic values. Let’s at least be inclusive here.

You are getting President’s Day off?

Even Hookers need scheduling and accounting.

And with LFS, you need to breed, raise the sheep and then shear them yourself before you get to spin and knit the socks…

How else are you going to play FreeDoom if you can’t get Linux to run on it?

To be fair, I don’t care for either the CyberTruck or the Prius.

But yes, there is a lot of social backlash against owners of the Cyber Truck. But it just ain’t “females”. It’s all of us laughing at you.

I’ve never really liked the UI in LibreOffice either. It’s usable, but always felt clunky to me. And it feels so heavy and ponderous to use. That says something from someone who wears the sackcloth and ashes of FreeCAD…

I did use OnlyOffice for a bit and I thought it was better for my needs than LibreOffice. But it was still overkill my current needs. So now I’m down to just AbbyWord and Gnumeric since I only need the odd document and simple spreadsheet.

Edit for missed word
