The two ways of fighting profiteering

[modus@lemmy.world]

I thought they banned the shoplifting subs. No?

Where does it say it's new enough to be on the floor of Home Depot?

[ubergeek@lemmy.today]

Basically? Yes. Based on when I worked there for a stint.

[bonesofthemoon@lemmy.world]

They did, it was an AMA.

If you didn't learn it only for this project, that cost is already sunk regardless.

Either way the post itself contains the answer for those who haven't already sunk that cost.

Don't forget they donate to gay and trans reeducation camps right here in the US.

Yeah Lowe's sucks but I'll go there first every time.

[theoaktree@lemm.ee]

Makes enough sense. My point was that either printing a replacement or getting the OEM part will use about the same amount of plastic, assuming the printing only takes one attempt.

[prex@aussie.zone]

Or the longer version:

[chip_rat@lemmy.world]

Be the change you want to see, and leave.

[uny0n@lemmy.world]

You didn't seem argumentative to me at all. I'm genuinely happy to disagree about something and:

-just have it be civil

-no one takes it personally

-we find things we can agree on

Also, aren't ovens hot? Won't a 3d printed part melt straight away, or is there some special material?

[ericatty@infosec.pub]

From experience, we tend to use the same two burners, and one particular one, the most, by far. (Front left for us) After 15 years, the plastic on the underside of the original knob got worn and loose and almost broke. We rotated the burner knobs. The oven knob is doing the same thing, but it'll need to be replaced or repaired. Like someone else said, they aren't usually all metal construction, there's plastic on the inside.

I don't think knobs get very hot

[dai@lemmy.world]

Depends on the material. ABS would be a decent material for this application - as long as you have a decent enough setup to scrub / clean the air in the chamber / room.

PLA would have a hard time in that position, PETG might be OK, Nylon may creep after too many heat cycles. Depending on how hot those parts get this is.

[callouscomic@lemm.ee]

Well crap. Here I was hoping my knob would get hot.
