  • It lets me feel like my time here is being useful if I get the upvotes. I try to limit myself to positive/fun/helpful posts or adding additional facts from other articles to someone’s post of I feel more info is needed to get a full story, so if people reply or at least upvote, it feels like it was worth adding my contribution. If my humor/help isn’t needed or wanted in a place, I don’t want to both waste my time and annoy people.


  • I don’t think he’d want the job, but he would do it were he asked and give it 110%. He’s no nonsense, a facts-based decision maker, and he listens to people’s issues and makes fair decisions if it’s what you want to hear or not. He’s also not too full of himself to admit when he’s been wrong. He seeks out experts on matters outside of his experience and respects their opinions. He loves his country and looks to do right by those that entrust him with a job.

    He would also probably be unfortunately remembered as a terrible president a la Jimmy Carter, as he’d likely trust a number of people he shouldn’t to keep their word, he’d be too compromising for a lot of people, and I don’t think people would like his “lack of personality” they’d get from his public persona. I think Hank would be a top-notch cabinet member though! I would totally support him for any of a number of different ones.


  • That was my first thought, but it seems easier to run a few thousand more off the assembly line and make the original part than I’d think to have at least one person develop an adequate 3D part for an items that wasn’t originally designed to be 3D printed.

    Even for a relatively simple item like the trimmer guard shown, as someone who used those on their whole head for many years, they need to have decent rigidity coming from a number of angles so it cuts evenly, so someone needs to design a decent print, find what types of stock provide the right durability, flex, etc.

    So it’s doesn’t sound that free for them or quick, but it’s much cheaper than distribution for a bunch of random parts that may never get used.

    I’m curious to see long term effects if this catches on. Will more original parts be made with 3D printing if they need to design prints anyway?

    The big downside is even if this were available, I don’t have a printer. I don’t know anyone with one. I don’t know where I could go to (?) rent time on one. So to me at the moment, this is as useful to me as no available replacement part! 😅
