How do you do, fellow Americans?

It was just an offhand joke that I couldn't resist, no offense intended. I guess quick access to emoji to convey tone is one point for phones!

I think it's more that the opinion is poorly conveyed / thought out.

Empathetic thinking is something completely different than what OP is describing. In fact, it's almost the opposite.

Personally I come here for the well-argued but wholly blasphemous opinions, not hot takes or rants.

I figured the "Fartface" part was pretty self-explanatory

Breakfast cereal 100%

I'd go out of my way to buy Malt-o-Meal cereals even if they weren't cheaper. Marshmallow Mateys 4 Lyfe!

Huh. I wonder if it smells similar to the heat that comes off the back of a PS4.

You have a point about how silly it is to scrimp on ethernet ports in new construction/remodels--wifi with a wired backhaul is unquestionably preferable to pure mesh.

But to say "wifi has nothing other than mobility" is purely asinine. It's like saying that planes offer nothing over cars except the ability to travel faster--yeah... that's kinda the point! Compared to the number of networked devices in the average home, there are very few current or near-future devices that could leverage even a gigabit connection fully, let alone justify a dedicated wired connection.

Streaming video needs a few 10s of Mbits tops, security cams are similar, streaming audio needs a fraction of that, your smart home devices & hubs are negligible, mobile phones and tablets downloading 100MB apps barely even blink at current wifi speeds. Even the average WFH-er is going to saturate their company's VPN before their wifi connection struggle.

Is an ethernet connection technically better in some of those cases? Sure, but the vast majority of people would notice no functional difference aside from having to plug in a second cable.

It looks like it's happening at about the area of steepest overhang and while going around a corner. Is it possible the bead of filament is not grabbing onto the previous layer and dragging/sagging?

Maybe try slowing down the print speed a bit and/or increasing fan speed.

I'm going to admit that I rolled my eyes a bit when I clicked on the photo because the plating and small portion size seemed a little pretentious. But then I clicked into the comments and saw OP was a pretty chill dude/dudette who was just excited about something nice they made, and promptly felt like a judgy asshole.

Anyway, this looks objectively nicer than 99.5% of what I eat and probably tastes delicious, so nice job and sorry if you caught any subconscious negative vibes!

(alcohol may have been involved in this comment 😅)
