You’re right, I didn’t realize the lawsuit had been thrown out. The fact remains the law is completely unenforceable without serious privacy violations.

There’s nothing like that in the US that I’m aware of, though some states have tried.

I actually went opposite on my Pixel 8. A matte tpu screen protector gives you a self-healing protective layer that feels like paper and doesn’t have glare. A beautiful bright display with a high refresh that feels like a kindle.

There’s no way to enforce an age ban on anything Internet related without serious privacy violations.

Yep, it feels like we’re about to see the second wave of piracy, and more and more people are going to dust off their jolly Rogers. $80 was worth it for the catalog, but the price hike is completely unjustifiable. I’ve already canceled my sub, and I’m betting there will be plenty who do the same. A 75% increase is egregious.

There’s a lot of free models out there already, and most models are created by individual artists. I encourage you to skip your coffee for a day if there’s a paid model you really want to use, as you are directly supporting members of the 3DP community, rather than some corporation.

Eh, it is easier to buy one. Besides, if I wouldn’t pass a background check I’d get the gun some other way. As it turns out, criminals care very little about abiding by gun control laws. Just look at the areas with the strictest gun control, they also happen to be the places with the highest rate of gun violence.

Also absurd and unconstitutional. You can make a rudimentary gun out of plumbing parts from a hardware store that is at least as effective as a 3d printer, arguably more so if you’re looking at 100% printed parts. Should we run background checks at the register at Home Depot? Should you not be able to buy plumbing if you made some bad decisions and served the time?

These are all ridiculous laws designed to restrict the liberties of the common man.

Running away because I struck a little too close to home?

This is such a SJW argument. What are you doing to help any of those people? Adobe does charitable giving and employee matching for donations/volunteered time for up to 10k/month per employee. last year Adobe gave over 6 million dollars to various charities as a result of this program. They’re only able to do that if they are making money and innovating.

I’m not saying Adobe is a great company or anything, but they have done and are doing more to help disadvantaged people than you’ll likely ever be able to accomplish, and their ability to do that is dependent on their business being successful.

Is this a waste of resources? Perhaps, but they aren’t responsible for solving the world’s issues, any they are contributing. What have you done? From what I understand, you could contribute more to the people you’re describing by applying and working for Adobe rather than criticizing them.
