The two ways of fighting profiteering

I like to keep the 3D printed look for spare parts, because its a good conversation starter and it often blows peoples minds if you tell them how cheap it was to produce. I was able to get at least 6 people into 3D printing now that way.

Nothing is more permanent than a temporary fix.

That's at least better than his wife. She laughs and points.

Man, all the sinks I’ve seen over the years with vice grip knobs haha.

That is the longest sentence I've ever seen in my entire life.

And if you need guards for your knobs, I designed some after bumping mine and turning on the gas more than once.

Or even simply moving it to the middle of the set of three for less distraction.

[chadmctruth@lemmy.world]

its obviously several sentences what are you illiterate and not that its any of your business but i have two REALLY cool helmets

[dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works]

Glad you are prepared!

See this thing --> .

This is how literate people delineate sentences.

I'm calling bullshit on your knowyourmeme photoshop, but it's funny to look at anyway.

Not to say this behavior is okay, but there are some companies that also just exploit the alternative to high heaven, like the post shows. You can pay $20 for a 12 cent replacement part, or order one and return it. Some people will pay for the part, but significantly less will when it costs and arm and a leg for something so cheap.

[remembertheapollo_@lemmy.world]

If people have little kids, or dogs that like to “counter surf,” guards are a pretty much a must (we just took the knobs completely off when our kids were little), acquaintances of ours lost their home to fire when the dog counter surfed and turned the gas stove on. I don’t remember what caught everything on fire that was on the stove, but they lost everything, and it killed the pets too.

[chaoticneutralczech@feddit.org]

My oven is so old I came across an identical one in an e-waste pile behind a store. I stole the timer knob and mechanism so I don't need to keep using it on manual anymore.

[dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works]

Ah darn I've gone and overthought it. Please carry on.

The two types of players

[alligatorblizzard@sh.itjust.works]

Maybe I'm missing something obvious here, but how do you use the stove?
