DaE Le gUiLloTiNe? Eat the rich!! Everything is a conspiracy, nothing is a result of complicated systems and incentives!

Make sure to at least cross post it over at !makerstuff@lemmy.world. We haven’t had content in a while and your stuff would fit perfectly.

Salmon, pistachios, cashews, fresh berries. Still wild to me that I can afford them as an adult.

Did no one read the article? All of his complaints are correct! Replacing old city pipes, that are almost assuredly covered in years of internal layers to mitigate lead leaking, will have a negligible to possibly even negative effect on lead at the tap. Even Brookings said so in their study! Buttigieg is getting a total pass here ignoring the real issues raised by just rebutting about how lead is bad, when they’re both saying that. So tired of people scoring cheap political points on soundbites, and Buttigieg doesn’t usually fall prey to that sort of thing.

Yes, the funding should have been higher, but if we’ve only got 15 million to work with, it might actually make more sense to do targeted fixes in low income communities in old residential buildings, where you’re most likely to have lead effects actually being felt at the tap from (relatively) newer lead pipe still in walls. But that would be expensive and much harder than just replacing water mains, so they’re doing the easy less-important work first, rather than getting the biggest bang for their buck.

Oh there’s also obviously the big 3dprinting only instance at !3dprinting@lemmy.world for 3d printing specific, but when I searched around for generic “maker” stuff I couldn’t find anything else.

Yeah, I was kind of shocked nothing like it existed. When I searched I think there was one mainly 3d printer specific maker community on a small instance, but I like a bit broader scope and lemmy.world seems more populated. Hope the content creators and reposters find this place!
