Would love a car decal version of this!

Gonna have to stop all sales of lead and brass in any form (don’t want to have access for people to melt things down). Gunpowder of course, including all the elements needed to make gunpowder. You know, just to cover all the bases. /s

I will say at least with those you can still sell them, trade them, whatever. Unlike digital games.

Being able to sell/trade a specific copy of digital media kind of is the one functional use NFTs could be used for (if companies would be willing to treat digital media to be treated like physical media which they obviously like the current setup). Would also kind of need a universal industry blockchain (or some other ledger system) with better scam protections, and be used for the “new” sales for the trades and “used” sales. Which is way more effort than digital media companies would ever care to figure out (especially now) and were able to get away with not being required to treat digital like physical. And the major players don’t have to care about making their stuff DRM-free.

In the case of video media it is worse since there are so many set-top devices that don’t allow offline downloads like the mobile versions of the same apps (mostly since the boxes don’t have storage for it) or ability to use on a home media server (Plex/Jellyfin). So you may have a license to a movie/show but not have access to it if networks are down. And digital audio media has been reverting since a lot of new music can’t be purchased and only streamed. Which is sad since I had some early hope that the digital video stuff would follow how audio was working with a lot of DRM-free options Apple and Amazon managed to “legitimize”. I will give some level of credit to the UV/Movies Anywhere system that allows retaining a supported movie/show if you have accounts on multiple services and any one of them shuts down. But that still requires that stores/studios support it, AND that the core system isn’t the thing shutdown.

I tend to still get pulled onto it via search results when the stereotypical specific answer to specific answers are basically from there. But Lemmy has really grown so much since I first found out about it a few years ago (one of the big ditch Reddit waves of course). Still not at the “magical answer to the very issue I need info on” levels as subreddits, but getting closer and closer everyday. Also really cool to get and reply to sources from other Fediverse projects that aren’t Lemmy if you choose to follow them. Just so fun overall.

Wait until they find out what can be done with socks and some rocks inside them.

I am in the south region of the USA, so humidity is for sure something I need to be aware of. But I can bring it inside for periods of time if it gets bad enough before I print, and my filament is staying inside anyway. My dad also made sure I know where the propane heater is located for quickly getting the ambient temps well above good ranges for prints. Just have to make sure to be super aware of making sure to keep the side door cracked while I am inside and the other safety stuff. Won’t be an issue in a few months once we finish a big sorting out and purging of other things in the room it will eventually live in. So glad I won’t have to worry about summer humidity in addition to heat.

Thanks! I will definitely make sure to give it a chance to get warmed up slowly before my next print. Once the space frees-up in the house, the next step will be putting an enclosure together for fumes (and get a dryer/heater for filament).

Thanks for the reply! Would have been pissed if I bricked it thinking it would be okay without asking around.
