Hon Hon Hon - Call me Nab, Atelier was my father

That moment when you have a SU file open, modelling pen clips to 3d print. and you open firefox to check something.
and you end up on the forum for 30 min.
and you close firefox.

and you haven’t checked the thig you needed to check, so you reopen firefox. and muscle meomry makes you open the forum.

darn.


unrelated, I saw the tariffs war started, so I ordered a mini m4 / 32gb / 512 gb before it gets 20-something %
I’ll still teach twinmotion on my 3050 rtx PC, but I’m tempted to try my hand at Vray.

About those tariffs. It WILL get more expensive because there is a fundamental logic error in that whole endeavour of the Man in the Bright Castle. Let us assume for a minute that it works. Tariffs make importing more expensive. Companies hence start investing in US based manufacturing. Any of you guys feel like working for Chinese wages in the US? I didn‘t think so. Hence you need to update prices of products to include local wages. Do in the end it doesn‘t matter if you pay a higher proce (cheap wages plus tariffs) or a higher price (high wages no tariffs) - you will end up paying more as a consumer. Your cheap work bench is gone. Back to the good old times where value was value. And you couldn‘t afford it.

It might still be a good thing because using cheap labor that you don‘t see is cheating in a way. And maybe it get‘s bad enough that cheap labor comes back to our first world countries. It may be good to have a true low income class again. And to reopen the coal mines and stuff that everybody can actually see and smell. :magnifying_glass_tilted_left:

I remember the 70’s and the stagflation prices never did come down when things got back to “normal”.

I offer personalized V-Ray training (shhh, I haven’t advertised that yet) if I can help in any way.

Love it. It was on my todolist also. I started one years ago, but did, as with many things, got bogged down and didn’t finish it. Ok, ok, back on the todolist again.
