- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. [email protected]

That machine costs well over $381k. We had a much smaller 3 axis lathe installed in the machine shop I worked in during my early 20's and it was $3M. That was 25 years ago, so it probably costs infinity dollars now, given recent inflation. Hell, you probably can't even buy them now, just lease them on a subscription for eleventy bajillion dollars per year.
Or, maybe you can still buy it. It still runs! Maybe it only costs $100,000 now!
...but there's very specific high-impact parts that are no longer made and the since-abandoned software only works on Win95 with a proper license and some kind of bizarrely proprietary serial port connection...
My first thought, written by someone who has no concept, likely a kid.
