• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That time when Microsoft bought and killed Nokia phone unit⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It ended up being a bad call but at the time Android only had 2 years in the market and trusting the leading OS company to manufacture a proper mobile product wasn’t a crazy idea. Microsoft just completely mismanaged the whole phone thing and took down Nokia with it.

  If I remember correctly the approach was so anti-google that you couldn’t even watch youtube on Windows Phones.

  I remember setting up a TeamSpeak server back in 2012 before Discord took over. Worked for us at the time.

  It would’ve been funny if it was full of infill.

  Was hoping to see how it looks inside.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gen Z is choosing not to drive⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In some states getting a license is how you get registered to vote. I wouldn’t be surprised if registration programs were being defunded to prevent younger voters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Airlines say they found loose parts in door panels during inspections of Boeing 737 Max 9 jets⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Boeing advertises the 737 Max by saying that it works just like the old 737 so you don’t need to retrain your pilots and save money. The issue a few years ago with that is that these planes are not 737 so when some new issue happens the pilots don’t know how to deal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple is now banned from selling its latest Apple Watches in the US⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe the sales figures were less than expected and will use this as an excuse to the board.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Android isn't cool with teenagers, and that's a big problem⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder how this correlates to low use of WhatsApp in the US. In South America and Europe WhatsApp is used heavily and looks the same no matter the platform but none of my US friends have WhatsApp so they rely on iMessage instead. None of them want to be seen sending green bubbles in the chat. I’ve even seen this as a side plot in a teen tv show that my wife was watching.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Disney is about to own all of Hulu | Disney’s paying more than $8 billion for Comcast’s stake in Hulu.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  In other parts of the world Hulu content is already on Disney+

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weird stringing on certain parts with Dragon HF hotend⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This can happen with under extrusion or over extrusion. You can try the auto towers plugin on Cura and print some Retraction Towers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple Event Next Week Likely to Emphasize High-End Gaming on Mac⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Vulkan and Proton on Mac or bust.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Problem with Jon Stewart cancellation highlights a problem for Apple’s content⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Same thing happened to me. I wonder if these articles are just ignoring the ratings.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When something i had been meaning to make for years shows up as a viral video, i went ahead and just bought the model⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this how the fridge ships or did the original piece break? I can’t imagine how annoying it was to have to use both hands just to fill up a water bottle. Nice print!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gyroid infil appreciation post⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I switched my petg to gyroid after having a hard time with cubic. It works nicely.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cruise robotaxi finds itself stuck in wet concrete in San Francisco⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah unless the car went blasting through a barrier I’m not sure we can blame “AI” on this one.
