Is this really a line of reasoning people use? They've committed one crime so of course they'll commit all the crimes?

23% is really just the bottom range of what your dryer will report. My dryer is 15%. Who knows what it really is below that, and whether those numbers are even accurate?

But after a day of drying at 50C you PLA will be bone dry regardless of what the dryer reports.

I see "taxes" a lot but I have never seen someone explain the mechanism by which this is supposed to work.

The only thing I can come up with in my head is that they have capitalized the development costs and are currently depreciating the resulting asset. And that by cancelling/delisting the games it may allow them to immediately depreciate the rest of it, thereby recognizing a large expense for the current tax year, reducing profit, and therefore taxes.

Is that how this is supposed to work?

What's a reasonable approach to this?

Standardize portion size, and disallow any change in packaging volume/weight? How can this be reasonably defined?

Ban price increases, presumably on a weight basis?

So you see the issue and have a workaround. Good! But that doesn't mean that, as you said, "it's not the cables that are the issue." Why throw them away if they're not an issue?

I was into Ayn Rand in high school and in retrospect I guess I'd say that, given the things I thought were important, I was rational. But certainly my values weren't quite...I dunno...human?

Doesn't everyone? That sentiment is kind of meme level these days

I'm on a prepaid plan so I run out sometimes. Worth it for $15/mo service

Yeah Tildes is exactly what OP is looking for. It was designed from the start to facilitate discussions and suppress memes

Man that does sound mildly infuriating.
