I learned my lesson about 'lifetime' updates with a Tom Tom GPS unit, from the late '90s, maybe early 2000s. After about 4 or 5 years I couldn't install the latest map updates, so I contacted CS. They said, "Oh yeah, lifetime means the time of the expected life of the unit, which is 4.5 years. We don't support that model anymore. Any other questions?"

Calculon?
Yup. I hesitated when I should have bought one in 2022 and now their prices are back up.
I've been sitting in the same Steelcase Leap V2 for 8 years at work and it is still comfortable. I love it. When my current chair at home dies (it's good, but not "Steelcase" good) I'm biting the bullet and getting the Leap V2 at home as well.
You mean Aunt Bunny?
She can't walk down a flight of stairs...
But I bet she can climb the fuck out of a tree!
I haven't heard that routine in 20 years at least, but I listened to that cassette tape for months on end.
Yeah, he's a talker. I've got a few more videos of him talking, and some other videos of them seeing how many pieces of kibble they can hold in their beak at a time.
Sorry, I don't have the slightest idea.
I don't know exactly how it is implemented, but if I had to guess, it is probably just metadata in the file. I know that when I print out the 2D drawings I make, it puts text in the bottom corner with something to the effect of "This was made with the educational version of Solidworks, Not for commercial use" or something like that. I expect something similar if you tried to open a file made on the educational version on the commercial version, there would be something similar on the screen. Not sure though, since I only have the educational version.
I use CATIA at work, and it's funny how both programs are made by Dassault, but have such different interfaces.
Yeah, I make things for me and family, but you'd be surprised at how many other people would be interested in it as well. I certainly was. I looked at my Thingiverse analytics, and I've had 10's of thousands of downloads of my things. I know those don't directly translate into prints, but I was shocked at how many people downloaded my designs that were originally just for me to organize my sandpaper, or sift sand or hold my CNC collets and wrenches. . .
Interesting. I knew they made some sounds, but not that many!
