I think the critical question here is why are these men vulnerable to it? Then take this knowledge and use that to fight back against bad actors.

My 2 cents on the topic is that many young men feel unimportant and lost and are therefore looking for someone to guide them. Unless society takes it seriously they will continue to follow those that seem to listen and acknowledge their issues even if they are using it to manipulate.

The US tariffs are applied with no basis in reality. Unless you could somehow magically move the entire supply chain for goods into the US at once businesses' costs will go up with widespread tariffs applied. Because of how worldwide all supply chains are these days this is a completely impossible task. Not to mention the higher labour costs and lack of workers willing to do those jobs in the country.

Most businesses don't have the runway for an unstable business environment and it is in their best insterests to diversify out of uncertain markets. Hopefully we continue to see more companies look towards Canada as an option for serving their international customers. I'm all for incentivizing this as long as we aren't selling out the benefits of these companies bringing tax dollars into the country.

Canadian Tire already owns SportChek and Mark's, they are already in the clothing space.

I also take issue with the description of Canadian Tire, they are a department store focusing on automotive, tools, home and garden, kitchen, and sporting goods.

Their businesses aren't that drastically different, and it sounds more like they want the brand for a smaller range of goods using HBC stripes.

maybe, just maybe if we didn't move the same settings 1-2 layers deeper behind some UI bullshit we wouldn't have to look for it.

This trend pisses me off so much. Companies need to learn that for settings I'm likely to have to change they need to minimize the number of actions to change it. But people in all these companies find the need to reorganize things to make it seem like they are accomplishing something.

I have a feeling that in many cases people’s work is being abused.

Yeah, a couple years ago I saw a stand at a flea market selling 3D prints. Took me all of 2 minutes to find the original at home with a non-commercial license.

It is all rectangular items around it, wouldn't be difficult to measure out the environment and route the design around it. Good CAD tools have cable routing tools that can assist with this as well.

Sad that in the most consequential election in most Canadian's lifetimes that more than 3 in 10 decided to stay home.

Run a temp tower if you are worried about it, but I run all PETG at 265 on my P1S. 255 will tear like you show and print matte which means it isn't properly melted.

Wrong way to adjust, try printing at 265 and keep the part fan on ( aux fan off).

That the default petg profile? Bump up your temperature by 10C and try again. Their PETG profile is too cold for the flow rate.

0.2mm flatness is very flat for a 3D Printer bed, I don't even know if I achieved that with the Nylock mod on my old Prusa. This simply looks like a bed adhesion problem, clean your bed well with dish soap and water and then rinse well and make sure you don't toch the surface. Check the first layer height and bed temp as well.

Yeah I recently started switching from SolidWorks to Creo in a professional setting, it is amazing how slow and clunky SolidWorks feels in comparison. The downside is that Creo doesn't hold your hand at all so you better know what you are doing.

Coming from that side, I have a hard time with the free/inexpensive options available for makers, they just don't work nearly as well.
