“Okay all of society: only buy old cards from now on and retrofit them for 30k and find special insurance to cover them!”

It didn’t work.

Yes, but this is kind of missing the point. We can’t all just buy old cards forever.

I don’t think the smaller size is that big of a deal. I got a friend into 3d printing a year or two ago and he started with the A1 mini and still has it. Most of the stuff beginners print isn’t that big anyway. If you go with the A1 mini and find that you love it, you may want to upgrade to a bigger size in the future. If you go with something like an Ender 3, you may just give up on 3d printing all together. Bambu printers are just so user friendly.

They’re just using the law to their advantage. They’re good businessmen.

Starbucks has turned into the 7-Eleven of coffee. It’s uncomfortable, not particularly clean, and you only go inside to use the bathrooms.

I stopped in at an airport the other day and they told me there would be a 15 minute wait for drinks from the time you placed your order. There were 4 people working, one was talking on her phone the whole time she was making drinks. I just went to the next coffee shop instead.

It’s not hard to see why Starbucks is in decline.
