• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨3D printing sites should require a printed model when uploading a design.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The website would have to verify the lack of a print photo. I’m guessing at this point it would probably be some AI image recognition filter so they don’t need to have humans verify all the uploads manually.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let us celebrate our mutual experience of close proximity by touching our multi-fingered appendages to one another's - Person who invented the handshake, probably.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would guess someone invented the handshake in prehistoric times and we just have no medium in which a record could exist aside from an undiscovered cave drawing or something like that. Humans seem to naturally touch hands outside of any social influence or cultural history. Babies reach out and people touch their hands. It seems like a pretty intuitive human action. We touch things with our hands, so other hands seems natural as a thing to touch. The shake just seems like a minor variation on that.

  In the same way that Printables has an option to hide AI-generated content from the search results, you could just have an option toe exclude models without print photos.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a word for the happiness in finding the exact right word?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can coin a neologism if you can’t find an existing word.

  onomato- is a prefix that is often used to mean word or name felic- is a prefix that means happy ortho- can mean correct, but also straight

  So maybe orthonomatofelicity?

  Probably too long.

  Maybe just onomatofelicity?

  There are other roots you can find with similar meanings to mix up your own neologism.

  That note was both sharp and flat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your go-to sites to find free 3D files to print?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Printables and Thingiverse typically. Sketchfab is great for 3D scans of real objects.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Renovation was right—and we're ahead of schedule⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  NES and SNES were much more ubiquitous and often the exclusive consoles for a lot of games, so Sega was coming up with it’s own line of games that weren’t as likely to enter collective memory or later have movies made out of them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sovol SV08 or Prusa MK4S⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I recently traded up my Sovol SV06 for a Prusa CORE One and have MK4Ss and an SV07 Plus at work. The Sovols are good budget machines in general, but the SVO6 was so much more reliable than the SV07 Plus, which required a lot more troubleshooting. The MK4Ss and the CORE One are great if you have the budget to spend on them. They’re reliable and good quality. The community of users is large and any issues you might run into have typically been troubleshot by others already.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is this my extruder squeaking? How can I stop it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve heard squeaking from an extruder that had little bits and shards of previous filament that was getting stuck during loading and unloading of filament rolls. You might try opening it up and seeing if there’s anything stuck in the channel or grinding against a gear.
