then why have any consumer protections? and why have a minimum wage?
They are just going to make up for it with higher prices right? Let’s make min wage $1 so we can all enjoy low prices. right?
You are playing into their hands

anyone over retirement age should be barred from running, and that should not be controversial.
If you got on a plane and the pilot was 80 you’d be a bit worried, and we let these fucks run the most powerful nation ever to exist.
Black woman: she probably deserved it
White woman: poor girl she had a future!
We just let anybody have a gun these days
I say that as a firearm owner and manufacturer. Anytime somebody asks me about my guns I explain to them how any 13-year-old could have done the same thing and how are gun laws are completely broken
You can be pro gun in pro regulation at the same time, fuck all these false dichotomies
You can usually just add the plain controller rails to any working phone case.
I found a design that worked well, redesigned it to be better and added the controller rails.
I think the rail files are on thingiverse
parallel thought I guess!
I’d love to check out what you came up with if you have the files up somewhere!
If you truly believe this you should be training with firearms. Go far enough left and you get your guns back
I am like a lost 4 year old in blender, fusion 360 is more my jam
Profit avg is probably 400.
Material cost is about $1 for a phone case, sells for $25.
CAD cost per sale is very low. I have learned to make my CAD workflow way better after doing all these cases. Now I have a plan ahead of time and not a mile-long timeline in Fusion lol.
If you are comfortable editing GCode then the Chameleon is a good choice, if not the A1 combo looks really compelling. I was torn between the two, but already have 3 printers.
I think the Prusa XL is the best option right now, but the price is crazy high
one of the best 3DP creators out there! I love how he tries to be as scientific as possible and get real answers. There is a lot of bro-science out there and it’s refreshing to have concrete results to go off.
There is another option you haven’t explored. 3dChameleon
This allows you to turn any machine into a 4 material capable printer. It is not plug-and-play, but if you already have a printer it’s cheaper than getting a whole dedicated machine ($180).
It can do flexibles too, which I didnt expect it to be able to do. Working on making phone cases with TPU inside and PLA outside.
There is an update coming in April that will make it way easier to configure, with sensor-less detection of filament position.
If you want something that works perfectly out of the box I’d go with A1 combo from Bambu Labs though. The Chameleon takes a little tinkering to get working
Learn CAD my guy! No asking for permission if you made the design!
I make between $500 and $1k a month in profit selling my original designs. 3D Printing is so much more rewarding when you can turn ideas into products instead of finding files people made
I love the 2-tone look!
I had made a tray for myself a while back but my smoking habits change so frequently between dabs, bong, joints, and vaping.
Might have to revisit this now that I’m not a complete CAD noob
Phones are so powerful these days too. Plus I can game for 6 hours on my phone straight, try that on a steam deck lol.
120hz top-of-the-line OLED, really nice speakers, and it’s not another device to charge and carry with you.
Also, using my Fold with the Junglecat controllers + my case is like having a giant screen steam-deck that can fit in my pocket. no comparison IMO
There is billions of dollars in preventing this. Amazon has an entire fleet of people hired for the sole purpose of stopping unionization, which is illegal but they get away with it because power.
This is what happens when money and power write our laws. First step is to get money out of politics. No more millionaires representing people making an avg of 35k a year.
The USA is supposed to be a Country of the people, by the people and for the people.
Free market communism sounds American as fuck to me.
Free markets can exist without corporate overlords, we collectively need to stop believing the Capitalism vs Communism false-dichotomy. Hybrid systems are the future, any other pure system devolves into slavery.
I’ve been dreaming of a future where Uber, DoorDash, etc are devoid of any corporate organization. Developers, drivers and support staff are the only human workers, the rest is organized by a complex, but open source, program.
No investors, no shareholders, every cent goes to the workers. Wages are higher in prices are lower because we aren’t paying five VPs a million dollars a year or sending all our profits to the shareholders.
I think advances in computing and AI could actually make this possible. If only greed didn’t run the world it might be doable
I want free market capitalism that works for us. What we have now if slavery with extra steps
😂
It seems society has to swing that pendulum as far to either side as possible every time.
Men the best! Women the best, men evil! Women evil, Men the best!
humans are so fucking stupid, collectively. we just repeat patterns over and over and over
