I’m not personally super keen personally, but if you are going to do it it might be worth asking if the person plans to paint it, and if not then design it in such a way that it still looks good in monochrome?
Does there have to be a seam? (Haven’t actually done any 3d printing so I am not clocking what leads to the seam..)
Genuinely, before you make a decision on whether a product/feature/whatever is a good purchase, ask two questions: 1) What problem does this solve for me? 2) How else could I solve that problem? If you can't identify 1, stop. If you can, but 2) has a quick easy answer... look there first.
So I love this law. Basically, California spends billions replacing gas lines on a regular basis to make sure they aren’t leaking. The bill identifies neighborhoods up for replacement; if the neighborhood prefers, they will shut off the gas line and buy everyone free electric appliances instead.
👀 ⚡🧵 Last week, California passed a law that lets whole neighborhoods electrify, shutting down gas pipelines that would otherwise need replacement. The law allows up to 30 pilot projects through 2030, requiring that 2/3 of affected property owners agree to get of gas. www.kqed.org/news/1200671...
The law will allow up to 30 neighborhoods to end gas utility service and swap out gas appliances for electric ones — at no cost to residents.

Shout-out to everyone who ever told me how ridiculous I was being for tweeting "They are going to put guns on these, y'all know that, right" when the Boston Dynamic clips were circulating ♥ Coming to a protest on American soil near you!
Microsoft released a new one-time purchase version of Office with most of the features from the subscription version, I am sure you all will be devastated that it doesn't include the Copilot AI integration (I feel like this is a selling point to most people who would buy a one-time purchase...)
If you're not a fan of the $69.99 annual fee for Microsoft 365, you can get a lifetime license for Microsoft's suite of apps for $149.99.
