How about pay reasonably and don't require people to do the work? I find it insane that Americans defend slave labor.

What was invented was unemployment and underemployment, both of which are unnecessary.

It's kind of funny how you are wrong in every way.

  • Union workers earn 20% more.
  • You shouldn't work while injured. Worker's comp is a thing.
  • You pay a dime to get a dollar.
  • It's not abuse to take sick time, but you already stated people should work injured.

Thank unions.

The side car says this community is about technology news. I don't think they should list everything it's not, but maybe clarify if news about the tech industry are wanted or not.

Thank you, that guy is so bigoted he didn't realize I was calling him out.

Maybe you're just a bigot.

Why is it shameful to be behind Namibia and Costa Rica?

It's just the cost of a banana!

For all we know this is their luxury buy of the month.

You may want to look at the other reply to my post, they mentioned that a part that breaks should still be food safe. I don't work in the food industry, I'm just a 3D printer nerd, so I wouldn't know about things like that, I just wanted to make stuff for my own use.

I'm outdated as far as printer options, Prusa makes good printers without going into the really expensive enterprise tier, so that's where I would look.

That makes sense, thank you for pointing it out! I can't see plastic 3D printed parts complying with that.

I'm the past there were hot ends (the print head) that may contain lead, so there is also that to consider.

The solution I read about in the past was to coat the part at the end with something food safe, like glazing for ceramics.

Of course you have to be careful about cleaning these plastics, PLA can't handle dishwasher temperatures.

I did not know the answer so I looked it up. Fiberglass is hard to recycle and it isn't done much. A lot of nuclear "waste" is actually spent fuel which can be reprocessed and used again.

Obviously it would be better to improve recycling of fiberglass but as it stands today, nuclear waste might be recycled more often than fiberglass...
