Ive had an ender 3 pro for about 5 years. Setting it up was straight forward I just followed a YouTube video which had some tips to help make sure the frame was square.

Ive never used the included slicer. Only Cura which is pretty great.

It’s definitely not the fastest but it’s a great beginner 3d printer and there is no requirement to tinker with it. I just level the bed and print each time. No problems 5 years in. (I did have to replace the removable print bed top at one point but that was partly because I’d gouged it before I learned how to level it)

Yep. A lot of people seem willing to give up their rights for a bit of convenience.

A couple of years ago the previous government added restrictions to peaceful protest to say they couldn’t be too disruptive.

Early this year some numptys from the group Palestinian Action broke into a military base and threw paint over military aircraft. The current government classified Palestinian Action as a terrorist group in response to this. I think the general sentiment in the UK is it’s fucking stupid to break into a military base and damage equipment and it’s luckily they weren’t shot, however it definitely doesn’t meet the criteria for terrorism. The classification is currently being challenged in court.

Meanwhile people are still free to protest the genocide in Palestine but not free to support the group Palestinian Action and so people who are going to protests with signs that say Palestinian Action are getting arrested.

Hundreds of people have been arrested since for showing support for Palestinian Action specifically. And also 1 guy for supporting Plasticine Action (Stop motion animators against AI)

I’ve not come across one that isn’t straight forward to swap. Definitely look it up on YouTube or something though since there’s usually a trick to getting the fob open.

It’s friends only where you can join the game a friend is running. (Also splitscreen if you’re local). It’s super customisable by the person who sets the game up. Pretty much everything is adjustable.

Composite materials are more flexible, the increased flexing can cause the paint to crack

I realise you’re probably joking but I’ve always found this to be temporary. If you’re cycling regularly and the saddle pain lasts longer than a few weeks you should probably try a different saddle (I do only cycle about 60km a week so maybe not true if you’re doing much longer distances)

I don’t think I really understood docker until I watched this video which takes you through building up a docker-like container system from scratch. It’s very understandable and easy to follow if you have a basic understanding of Linux operating systems. I recommend it to anyone I know working with docker:
