I see your point that if happiness is already here, then why must one train.

But I think the idea is that in order to appreciate the happiness you have already, it takes work. But that's just my take.

 'Domus'? Nominative? 'Go home'? This is motion towards. Isn't it, boy?

I honestly do not know how IQ and the ability to judge the future outcomes of ones actions tie together.

I do know that confessing to crimes, and then saying that he'll try to commit those same offences upon release is not a very sensible idea if he values his freedom from prison. On the otherhand perhaps the guy thinks his being a martyr for the cause and his openness will encourage others, time will tell.

The previous post mentioned Europe and specifically France. I was just clarifying that it's the same for the UK. 😁

I'm from the UK and can confirm It's not standard here, perhaps in other parts of Europe (but not France.)

Edited to clarify that the United Kingdom has not physically moved location, nor has the continent of Europe been redefined (at least not that I'm aware of)

It sounds like he needs mental help.

There's no mention of a lawyer or any support, the guys just completely dropped himself in it. Perhaps a very low IQ or some sort of mental health problems that prison is really not going to help.

This is far from normal behaviour.

Rich family exploits their workers.. suprise, suprise. I wonder just how many others they've exploited.

Nasty scummy people who should be in prison.

That's a very good point about tax avoidance these companies do by "operating" from a certain country. I never thought of it like that.

As much I like the EU, politicians are politicians ...

Sorry, yes I was slightly unclear in my response. (I've moved the paragraph to make it clearer)

The House of Lords in the UK is a mix of hereditary and life time peers nominated by the govt.

The House of Lords has limited powers (I think can veto or suggest amendments to a bill only once before the house of commons can force it through) and it is a archaic institution that we have kept, I guess it adds an extra check or balance to the elected representatives.

Agreed, imho calibration is the biggest issue. Also print times - generally I wouldn't leave a print job running (e.g. in hotel room whilst I'm out sightseeing) without being near or at least monitoring it. And finally the smell of some filaments can bother some people.

On the otherhand it looks really neat, the size is great and I think it'd be a good solution to your requirements. Just don't be surprised if you end up making a permanent space for it in order to avoid too much recalibration everytime you set it up 😂

And addressing your other concern, I think part of the original reprap ideal was that a 3D printer could print parts to build another printer, and parts to modify and improve itself. I've got a i3 clone and parts are usually generic and off the shelf - you might be able to check what parts it uses?
