The fragile part is easily fixed by changing the print material and/or infill percentage. You’re right on all other points though.
3d Printing can lose it’s luster over time if you don’t make the effort of learning 3d CAD software and making new designs. -This is my current struggle as FreeCAD is a painful piece of software to use.

If you look up the company they have profiles of their leadership. I guess she’s the “Chief People Officer” and also the only part of the leadership team that happens to be a woman.

- Comment on ICE Is Using a New Facial Recognition App to Identify People, Leaked Emails Show | ICE agents can now ID anyone by just pointing a smartphone in their face. 2 weeks ago:
It would be best if done on a burner with a different IMEI & IMSI while also not at a place related to where you frequent. The FBI who now has fewer resources was using facial recognition and cell phone data to identify large groups of the opposition not too long ago. It wouldn’t be a stretch to think ICE isn’t trying to do the same.

- Comment on Supreme Court to decide whether ISPs must disconnect users accused of piracy 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, sure but to “steal something” is to imply that you’re depriving the original owner use of the thing you stole. This is more like making an exact copy depriving nobody of use of the original thing.

Apparently Larry Fink runs the American Investment Firm known as BlackRock Why do you ask? Are you going to write him a letter? In that case according to the article there’s some relevant information about where to send it
“In 2004, they bought Finch Farm in North Salem, New York from the actor Stanley Tucci for $3.7 million and have since bought seven more parcels of land there, including one from Maurice Sendak and 27 acres from the town’s deputy supervisor Peter Kamenstein in 2019 for $5.4 million.[47] They also have an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan and a house in Aspen, Colorado.[3]”

“Op didn’t say social media companies today are like tobacco companies today”
yeah they did.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
The current tobacco companies are no longer any more evil than any other business is my point. It’s a bad comparison for a modern day Social Media company, especially since so little of the population today was around for when Tobacco companies were at there worst.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
The evil tobacco company is an outdated narrative, they were already regulated to hell 22 years ago when I started smoking and since then I’ve only ever seen the regulations increase now with the new apparent goal of outlawing nicotine, because I can only speculate that people think this time we’re going to get prohibition right.
btw I quit smoking 7 years ago, and nicotine altogether 5 years ago.
