This is so wrong it’s absurd. I work on machinery. Heavy equipment, I’ve dicked around with industrial robots and hell I even have and use a 3 axis cnc mill from 1986.
Most of the stuff that’s out there is reliable as time with very little maintenance required. Oil or grease movable joints. Top up oils, change oils every 1000hrs. It’s not hard or expensive to keep up on maintenance. Pay a premium and replace gear oil with PAG type oil, and you will never have to change that oil in your life.
Machines just work, they don’t have feelings, they don’t take sick days, they don’t take lunches. And why they fuck are you buying equipment with out way to pay it off first. Build it, and they will come. It doesn’t work all too well when everyone and their grandma has a cnc shop these days.

That’s funny yet odd. I use floppy disk still to this day for my 200aml cnc plasma table. It’s the easiest method to load the gcode on. The rs232 is to much of a p.i.a.
I used to have an issue when I used a USB floppy drive into my laptop. I ended up finding a pc with a dedicated floppy drive since then. I’ve had zero issues. Wich is also more surprising that floppy disks even work around the big ass high voltage transformer for the plasma power source. The big servo motor drives and the welders in the shop.

Mix 1/2 of a yellow crayon with 1/5th of grey in a solution of kerosine to extract the cadmium and lead. Distill with lit cigarette. Consume promptly. Repeat treatment every 8hrs preferably more often.

Yep, how ever the kangaroo court that is lemmy has ruled that despite your work ethics and day in day out efforts to be a contributor to society. You are worth the same as the crack head who stole your rose trellis for scrap metal last summer.
