I’ve never seen anyone tip a gas station attendant in NJ before. I don’t know what they get paid though

I disagree with your claim that it’s a right. And would you look at that? So does the UN.

I would agree that gaiting information from a child isn’t abusive, but like many things it’s not without nuance.

  • Santa? Sure, whatever.
  • Went out for drinks, but act like you were working late? Not great, but that’s your perogative.
  • Refuse to let the school teach about traffic lights, because you don’t like cars, and don’t drive? Uh. That’s gunna cause some issues down the road. (Pun very much intended)

Generally I think it just comes down to under preparing them for life. It’s not abusive, but intense cases of it could start approaching neglect. The Wikipedia page for child neglect does mention this:

Educational/developmental neglect is the failure to provide a child with experiences for necessary growth and development, such as not sending a child to school or educating them.

I like hearing all sides of an argument. What say you?

Yes! That sounds like a very interesting discussion!

Here’s the model in the picture for those interested: Tak Game
Tak Game by craeen

A variation (in looks) of the game "Tak: A Beautiful Game" https://www.amazon.com/Cheapass-Games-239CAG-Tak-Beautiful/dp/B01LFA7QFK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1517029133&sr=8-1&keywords=tak+game You can play the 4x4 or 5x5 or 6x6 game with this board. I used the wood grain from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1640999 then designed the board and stones using Photoshop and Tinkercad. For the capstones I chose 4 files from the following three Thingiverse items and forced them all to be 20mm x 20mm at the base and 32 to 35mm tall.https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1079138https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:935856https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1254404 Everything was printed in Hatchbox wood PLA and stained. (The red "rocks" were painted with 3 different paints). The board pictured was printed in 4 parts. (I'm also including files to print it in 2 parts or all at once if you have a large printer). If the pieces warp when you take them off a hot bed, just place them back down on the hot bed and hold them down until they flatten back out. The woodgrain and border give the stain "capillary action" so it's actually pretty easy to stain it 2 tones (use a cheap paintbrush). We like it in 4 pieces for storage, but on a slick table the pieces tend to slide, so we put a piece of our painters tape on the middle underside.

I came across a really clever idea today for minimizing warping on a large flat surface. The modeller made the first two layers into a series of bridges, which seems to let the plastic shrink and stretch a bit, also preventing some possible blobbing. At least I assume that’s what’s going on here. I’ve never seen it before, but it printed great without curling or warping. I’ve also picked up some looser ideas. Things like: - Adding a 0.02 tolerance to interlocking part will help parts fit together. Adding small chamfers to edges will also help - 3 shells helps give a nice, smooth surface - Orienting parts on the bed so that layers are perpendicular to stress can prevents layers from delaminating in functional parts - Orienting parts such that fine details are vertical will help things look prettier - Add slight chamfers on the underside of overhangs can help minimize or even eliminate the need for supports - Create inset holes with this method [https://hackaday.com/2020/05/17/look-ma-no-support-for-my-floating-holes/] to eliminate the need for supports. This also works with other shapes [https://youtu.be/KBuWcT8XkhA] What other modelling tricks have you seen?

First off, OP seems to be a woman. Also why do you give a shit if a man if wearing a kilt? Do you also scoul from across the coffee shop if someone is wearing shorts that stop above the knee? Nobody’s forcing you to do anything
