New #promosky!
I’m Carl, and my two main things are that I love #3Dprinting, and I’m currently living on the remote Japanese island of Tanegashima! Currently on a #FireEmblem kick; I’m designing the eponymous Blazing Blade and playing through Binding Blade for the first time in Japanese on Twitch.

So some quick thoughts on how Thingiverse can improve with its new management, just from my perspective as a creator that basically dumps models there
Lemme know what y'all think!

2k in 10:19! Little bit of a late start for a weekday; saw some mof my students on their way to school
2k in 10:37! Made sure to go to bed early so I could get up early and run, but... Accidentally got up too early and it was still dark out, so I had to wait anyway
2k in 10:10! New record! Still had the dregs of snow on the ground from yesterday, so I think I was trying to get out of the cold ASAP. Also had to use the bathroom pretty bad there.

Ok chat is this a good thing? Not familiar with MyMiniFactory that much but the idea of AI content being removed is fine by me.
That, and #Thingiverse could use a glow-up. Too bad I can't attend the QnA

Ok genuine question but for all of you that have commercial licenses available via memberships, how do you keep track of who has what license? Like if you stumble across someone selling your stuff how do you know they're not stealing it and are just a member/subscriber #3dprinting

Anyone know where a good place to engage in discussions about various fandoms is? I've tried reddit but the thing there is that people seem to already have set opinions so they don't tend to engage in good faith (or tbh they don't even read what I wrote)
Do I just gotta build an audience here or?

I feel like a lot of arguments and misunderstandings wouldn't happen online/in fandoms if people understood the difference between "I like this" and "this is good."
Just because you specifically like something doesn't mean that it's universally liked or popular

2k in 10:43! Looked up average run times for my demographic and apparently beginners run 11:57, novices run 9:55, and intermediates run 8:25.
Is that last one even possible for me...?
Oh well. I'll keep at it.
(Runner's high when?)

#pokemon hot take before bed: let's go was a pretty good game; it delivered exactly what it promised and even had more fun catching gameplay than the main series

Who would you pick to better represent FE in Smash, if we were to do it all over?
This article was also posted simultaneously on the Fire Emblem Subreddit here .

Writing an article about choosing better picks for #FireEmblem in #SmashBros and boy did they mess up the current reps lol.
Literally 4 of the 8 chars are clones of each other, three of them are from the /same game/, and three were released as essentially just ads for their recent/future(?) games

Big improvement; not sure what combo of me figuring out my limits and my body figuring out that this is a regular thing led to this jump, but hey, I'll keep seeing where it goes!
