Did my very first 3d print yesturday on my new Anycubic Kobra S1, and I’m very happy with going with the kombo. For the future or if you print a lot of multi-material I definetely agree, but being able to swap between 4 different spools without manual intervention is great, and considering it has a built in dryer the package deal felt like a no brainer. Just a decent seperate filament dryer seems to cost 100-200€.

For me the ability to do occasional multi-material prints is just a bonus!

I think that was the reason he gave for using clippy?

“Clippy didn’t spy on you, he just wanted to help”, as a contrast to copilot etc.

Hm, not sure that would be legal even? Considering it likely contained information on different employees etc. But yeah, if possible it would have been nice to see.

Yeah you’re correct on the accusations, I should have clarified.

But with that approach it doesn’t sound like there is anything an organization could do against false accusations that would absolve them of wrongdoing. I’m all for bashing corrupt/horrible companies, but it feels like there should be at least some presumption of innocence unless there is any kind of proof. Painting all accused with the same brush just leads to devaluing the brush IMO. But like you said, people may (and will) believe what they want, and people are under no obligation to watch or support any creator unless they want to. In my case I just haven’t seen any proof of wrongdoing (in this case, gamersnexus controversy was worse IMO).

What do you think a company should do in that situation, assuming it is being falsely accused? What would a “perfect” response be? I cant think of a much better one than what LTT did, given their circumstances, but would love to hear what a better response would look like.

They hired an external firm to investigate themselves and they found nothing, while the accuser had zero proof. There is plenty of things to accuse them for, the gamers nexus thing for one, but I’m a bit annoyed about false accusations sticking so hard when there is little reason to believe it. If anything it makes people less likely to believe actual victims.

Feels like I remember that one getting pretty good proof Linus didn’t do anything, but could be wrong

I’m split on this. Obviously bad, but not sure I can blame the developers for this fully as (if I understand it correctly, which I might not) they are sort of bound by CCP law? I imagine “stirring up controversy”/“making China look bad” might have some rather dire consequences for the developers.
