I don’t think so. You can tell by their billion miles stare they don’t have much of a choice but to put up with his crap for now.

Evolution’s fucking badass!

The process that made these images is very similar to the ones used by genAI in some ways.

Or the pg tips approach: ‘d’ya know what? No more tag or thread for ya now you’ve got to fish and pinch the baggy out of your scolding tea ya wanker’.

Yeah maybe not even non-standard as much as non-formal in this case.

I wanted to mean ‘different from what you learn in English class in school as a kid’ so non-formal, non -standard, dialectal, slang, misspellings, same-sounding words…

More or less my point, languages are weird with lots of arbitrary idiomatic things—‘would rather’ but ‘had better’.

After posting the comment I’ve thought ‘wait, it makes more sense for it to be should’ so my guesses are a bit off today.

That’d be a contraction of ‘would’ in this case, wouldn’t it? As an ESL speaker I used to find these grammar ‘mistakes’ (for lack of a better word) made more difficult for me to parse the sentences. As with code ‘written once but read many times’ would apply here.

I’ve never used a 3d printer so take this with a grain of salt, but I have made a few simple parts in freecad and autocad (without any experience or formal education with them, and without a physical part as reference) and it didn’t take much time, I guess someone who knows what they’re doing having the broken part to just copy it could do it in minutes.

I found this map, but there ain’t many of them that side of the pond.

I just learned about these so don’t really know how they do it, but you can cannibalize some of the broken ones for spare parts. Also for what I understand many are periodic or even stable so people who need a part can get it and come back another day. I’ve seen one looking around done in a place where they have a 3d printer.

With cleaning and lubing; screws, bolts, nuts; cables and contacts you can resuscitate a lot of appliances and domestic machines. If you can also 3d print the shitty small plastic parts that break, even for a sturdier one if possible, that could save people a lot of money and tons of waste.

How so? Honest question, I can’t seem to find anything that is not super pro-corporations like the prohibition on modding consoles with tens of thousands dollar fines or even prison sentences…

Apple: ‘Mobile platform? Nah this is just a game console’ winks at Nintendo and Sony

I can sneeze several times in a row if a light is bright enough. I’ve even triggered it just thinking of the sun, a few times.

I have this. Mildly annoying.

As per the article two thirds of that ‘agricultural land’ is graze-lands, so like a 12.5% of that agricultural land is actually farmland dedicated to feed livestock.
