A) literally means figuratively. Go grab a dictionary and check yourself.

B) Was I complaining about Reddit? If anything, I'm complaining about the fact that Lemmy is much smaller and often delayed in getting me news about current events

All the downvotes but literally every post here I see is on Reddit hours or days beforehand.

Don't listen to this person. Unleashed dogs are the responsibility of the owner in most states. Not only are you not legally responsible for the injuries to the dog, the owner is responsible for any damage to your car.

What are the good alternatives? Been a fitbit user for a few years now and not sure who to switch to next.

As just a simple contrarian? No. But is he a contrarian? Absolutely.

Here, boys, girls, and everything in between...

When calling someone out, it's best not to be condescending yourself in your opening. You didn't elevate the discussion with that, you invited them to a slap fight.

And like the other person said so well, there is sincere reason for the question. But you clearly don't want to engage honestly and instead be dismissive yourself.

I think you nailed it. People get so hung up on what he became, they forget what he was. Dude really is just a contrarian. Almost like a white collar version of George Carlin(albeit very toned down).

Huh, I did typo that. Good catch

That would be a fun swap for the purge code lmao. Free "Fuck Stratasys" keychain with every print. Better than the squiggly "poop" blobs I get now....

For awhile I still believed there was a use for creators themselves. It's basically the only way for an individual to sue a company for stealing their idea. But of course it gets captured by corporations and ruined. But until patents get some serious limits, yeah I'm out. They're more harm than good, I agree. I just felt the good they were doing still had some merit....

Or on a Bambu, just do a longer "poop" purge and spit it out the side like they already do. A tower isn't even necessary. It's only needed on devices without a purge capability. I've printed plenty of multicolored prints without any tower whatsoever on mine. Literally should be suing anyone but Bambu for that one.

Someone seriously patented purge towers? Ffs, first hearing that 3D printers were shelved for decades because some douchy company camped on the main patent, and now shit like this? Patenting "printing a square tower to accommodate the waste created during filament swaps" is fucking ridiculous. I can't stand patents anymore. Corporate extortion through and through.

Fuck Stratasys.
