I mean Russia is back to bartering for goods the Ruble is struggling so hard.

I imagine the the reason China is ok with it is cause they view Russia as collateral that they can claim for their cheap labor force and supplies when they try to push their own economy out of so much manufacturing.

Similar to what they are doing in Africa but with a closer contract to push on since it’s closer and easier to control.

Well I wouldn’t turn to Russia for economic growth. That’s for sure.

They already blocked you to keep their echo chamber pure.
Cause if you can’t see people that disagree with you they don’t exist and you can be surprised and angry when things just don’t go your way.

Hahaha yeah true but this cost me less than just the x1 new so let me have the slight win of “free” even though it’s definitely not.

Yeah it’s been unused for 3 years and started it’s life in swamp land so definitely wet. They are in the toaster oven on the dehydrate setting just unfortunately have to do that for every single roll except the single unopened solutech I had left.

Yeah I just tested my first multi color… And jammed the printer with my brittle old filament…

I got lucky and mine was free because I bought used… That is a whole lot of AMS going on in that photo.

Yeah it’s a lot of different names and I thought I was keeping up but I guess I shouldn’t expect the same companies from the days of repraps to be unchanged in this new era of auto printers.

Yeah I think I am just gonna jump straight to orca slicer and skip Bambu’s.

Prusa slicer was always the good one anyways. But yeah I felt slice settings kept getting faster than my printer could handle even when it worked.

I’m trying it in the dehydrator now but like 5-6 loops crumbled right off as I took it out of the bag and that seems like a bad sign.

Lucky. I had opened most of mine and I don’t think my Ziploc bags held out as much water as I would have hoped.

It is a sad day, this printer deserves all the solutech. That filament was so good.

I was deeply upset when I went looking for them and realized there was nothing.

The QR code literally took me to a scam gambling site and that was my first clue.

Hahaha yeah, my last printer I bought before this one was a prusa mk2 and I don’t mean 2.5 I mean 2.

So I’ve never had a removable build plate even.
It feels a whole lot more than incremental.

I actually havent actually used the bambu slicer yet either. Just been using internal files and the whole app thing to print test pieces.

Nintendo also recently did the Pokenon sleep app which was about tracking your sleep and a bunch of wearables have been shouting they intend to get better about it too…

I don’t know if I want to know why suddenly data on People’s sleep patterns is so profitable but yeah no way am I inviting data tracking and biometric harvesting into my bed with me.

I would hope that to be true but know that it’s not how life works. So maybe stop thinking you know who everyone else is and what they know.

Obviously the perpetrator knew and from testimony some others certainly did but not everyone thinks about their life so closely.
Hopefully it inspires more people to take vocal recorded consent and have safe words/actions but even then people will still be stupid because people don’t know what they don’t know.

Best we can educate others, pity (where possible), and hold accountable for their actions as needed.

Told that it was the wife’s kink to pretend to be asleep and that consent was given earlier to be passed on since they would be roleplaying as soon as they got in the bedroom…
Fuck that’s fucked up, typing out.

If stealthing is rape by altered consent then this certainly falls somewhere in that spectrum too.

Edit for a quote but yeah I mean this is a huge deal and full of insane testimony that should be the basis of this discussion.

Basically threesomes where 1 of the participants have not been given a chance to fully consent and 1 was given none. Because of 1 guy who enjoyed the power he felt.

Your comment doesn’t attack the person upset it just leaves out other victims as if they don’t exist.

You can edit a comment at any time and you don’t have to be miserable or rude just cause someone else is.

Its a shame an obviously inflammatory sign and clickbait seeking article image has made it so that the discussion is mostly off topic.

Its insane and the whole evil piece of shit that perpetrated his kink of having multiple people raped by omission and literal drugging and rape gets away from conversations by the obvious bullshit of absolutes is insane to me. how about no victim blaming on either side and recognition that rape is awful abuse of power dynamics that occur whenever its viewed as possible.

But also this post should probably be removed because that sign is meant to cause this kinda of angry response and it leads into a lot of hurt victims and happily ignorant people hand waving it away.

Said as another absolute that you shouldn’t, as if PTSD doesn’t exist for men that do get raped but just not as frequently.

Yes it’s skewed but seriously try to avoid absolute statements like that cause it absolutely will push the same victim ignorance that we try to avoid with women comig forward and it will upset people.

Just say “most” or even the “average man”

Make your point then and make it factual? Cause so far you have said America doesn’t have immigration to fall back on which it does in spades even though I agree it looks like, and is in all practicality, slave labor.

Then said, incorrectly, Chinese immigrants worked in mines and used unrelated other slave labor immigration as whataboutisms.

The point was that America can sell the idea of itself to keep import of cheap labor high and you have wafted about without a point just yelling at people about all the things you think are wrong with the world and nitpicking, poorly, other people.

You don’t stay on topic and you basically don’t have a point other than be angry. If you have a point make it. If you want to be angry and rant then fine but be honest about it and just be angry and rant.

You get yelled at because you slip off topic to sputter out a “fact” that you think wins an argument while it being tangentially related and off topic. Your dog dying is not a good excuse for failing gym class. Yes it’s sad. But it’s not the point.

Take this as a learning moment from someone that agrees with you and won’t back down at telling you, find a different way to talk to people.

This “holier than thou” shtick where you say random factoids as a way to feel superior in a conversation ain’t doing you favors and isn’t accomplishing anything other than stroking yourself out. And it’s fine if you want to do that but do it in private. We don’t need to see you jacking off your ego.
