If full time Walmart employees need government assistance programs to afford food and pay their rent, is it not Walmart who is leaning on government assistance?

  • Maybe a hot take, but if you visit the hospital/er 5+ times after giving birth, have a history of postpartum depression and probable postpartum psychosis, your husband is arguing with the doctors on your behalf, they keep giving you SSRIs when she’s had bad reactions in the past to them, she’s talked about hearing voices to her doctor. She’s called the suicide hotline and gone to the ER for suicidal ideation, and hinted that the voice wants her to kill her kids then…

    1. Don’t switch her to a new SSRI and then discharge her immediately.
    2. Don’t leave her alone with her kids.
    3. Consult an OGBYN
    4. Prioritize her.

    It’s pretty fucked how many people failed her in a traumatic way, and ultimately failed those kids too.


  • Idk about that, but certainly there is a very strong correlation between people like this and those who feel like they need to consult chatgpt or grok to filter out basic facts. Their willingness to give up their own thoughts and opinions bodes poorly for the future, especially of democracy.

    Sorta depends for me. If I can connect the YouTuber back to something valid like an event where science is held in high esteem or collabs with people I do trust I’ll give it a shot. Basically every single time this is not the case, and in his case it’s literally never the case. Dude searches for his batshit view, clicks the first video without watching it, then sends it like I’m supposed to filter it for him. He’d believe in aliens if the video had 1 million views. He kinda does anyways since the why files is his favorite channel and it’s barely researched (by AI) slop, where whatever his agent can’t disprove becomes a “mystery”

    One of the examples that comes to mind is the Navy UAP videos, where he looked at what was clearly a bird, wing flaps and all, locked on to by a fighter jet and said “that’s a craft and WOAH it disappeared (when the pilot lost autotarget)” as well as, “a fighter pilot on Fox said it’s a vehicle of some sort and he’s a lot smarter than you.” And got indignant and walked off when I said, “smarter and paid or a lot dumber than me, either way he’s wrong.”

    I brought up the dumbass sheriff chasing Jupiter on a winding road too and he felt it wasn’t Jupiter because the sheriff was an expert witness for some reason. Dude’s cooked







  • I think your effort would be better put towards an enclosure for the whole printer if you don’t already have one.The radiant heat loss of the bed will become a good thing. Lots of people add additional heat time to give the stagnant air time to heat up the enclosure. As others have said though it sorta depends on what you’re printing mostly if it matters at all. PLA is such low temp it’s not difficult for the machine to maintain at all. If you’re doing PC or nylon you may need every advantage you can get.

    For the adhesives conversation, there are quite a few that can cope with high temp. Silicone is probably the best in case you regret it. Other glue could take a coating of your plate off.


  • Not really something smart so much as something consistent. I think there are far too many people with no introspection on their harmful views as it is, and AI confirming their biases is inherently dangerous. Especially because the default tone they chose for every model appears to be picked to speak directly to this specific type of person in the exact way it shouldn’t.



  • Unfortunately I do not. Project Farm and TTC are the best long form tool reviewers right now. Consumer Reports might be more your speed, but I think videos allow for more independence since it’s a more profitable medium. These video channels are able to spend thousands per video because they’re family friendly and rack up hundreds of thousands of views daily.



  • I don’t really get it other than changing its convenience and efficiency. Superglue and wall loops make stronger parts of multiple pieces than priting it all in one.

    Maybe poor wording? I just mean their task is enormous to filter these parts in a way that actually targets them and nothing else and splitting pieces will invariably be the new technique for those people who are making them. The thing is when you’re making gun pieces it’s a disposable or sellable piece meaning they’re likely producing multiple of the same models. They will easily adapt techniques that continue to work for them while our prints get filtered into that group despite having nothing to do with guns.

    I also think we should be able to print whatever the fuck we want with our own devices, but even from their perspective it’s not going to work. This seems like a handwave attempt at garnering plausible deniability from high profile cases of murder as well as sucking up to politicians and pretending they actually care about the problem.

    Also in my original post I forgot this applies to CNC machines too, this is going to be a shitshow.

    You seem to be worried about water eroding away resin or something to that effect. The bonds are strong enough that’s basically not a concern. It’s kinda like being worried about a Teflon storage medium because it’s got a bad safety sheet.

    My recommendation is find something that’s waterproof on curing that can handle both ends of the pH spectrum and call it a day. You aren’t worried about abrasives.

    Edit: UV too, depending on where it will be could be a concern, but petg isn’t UV ready either.


  • I personally would not consider superglue harmful enough to worry about plants seeping enough of it to affect the health of me eating the plant, and it’s not food grade. I’ve used it to fix cracked humidifier reservoirs in a greenhouse for example. That being said, most epoxy resin dries food grade. I don’t think you’d have to search hard for a very well performing Resin with food grade search term swapped with dining surface or some frequent use that requires food grade.
