The working class finally has a critical ally in John Flynt, whose progressive, anticorporate agenda only bodes a more equity-driven future.

Translation: After two failed political campaigns, and tons of pricey arcade machines, Frank put his foot down and now refuses to buy John every shiny new toy that Apple releases.

BUT JOHN NEEDS TJE NEWEST IPHONE SO HIS PEGGLE SCORES WILL LOAD FASTER THAN EVER!!!!
 
Doesn't John testify about being an imaginary woman?

Did this faggot buy two more 3d printers because why not what is money?

"Wow cool printed skull, Frank! We should decorate the whole lawn with them!"

"This took 27 hours to print, John. And it's already Oct. 15th."

"...... So? Seems like an easy enough problem to solve."

"WTF are we going to do with multiple 3d printers?"

"But they pay for themselves after only 3,729 more plastic skulls! We'd be fools not to buy them!"

(btw, nice staged photo. No reason for that monitor to be there)

John could have instead posted photos of Frank's scream face and cardboard cutouts of his wendigo frame, scarring all the neighborhood children for life at just a fraction of the price!

3D printers are at their most useful when you're creating something totally custom that you don't need many of, like printing a replacement for a broken part or an enclosure for a Raspberry Pi, things of that nature. If it's something that's being mass-produced elsewhere like, say, plastic Halloween skulls, then it becomes grossly expensive due to economies of scale.

If John were printing a couple fully custom skull models that Frank he found online just to add to the decorations, that would be one thing. But no, from what he's shown, it's just a standard human skull, one that you can find pretty much anywhere for practically nothing; at Spirit Halloween, for instance, you can get a vinyl skull for $13.

So because I have autism I'm curious how wasteful this is, here's some rough math. I have little to no experience with the intricacies of 3D printing, so if something doesn't check out, please feel free to correct me.
First, we have to factor in the cost of the printer itself. The two on the left, as linked earlier, cost $1000 each. But it gets worse when you consider the other printer is the Lulzbot TAZ 6, which costs a whopping $2500. Already we're in the hole pretty substantially, but to be fair, you could write off some of this cost through using it on other projects and/or selling finished prints to others. John probably won't, however, so we'll just assume that it's a sunk cost. Nearly five grand, good lord.

Filament varies in cost depending on what material you use, but I'm going with the first Amazon result I found, which had it at $20/kg of PLA filament. A cursory search of Amazon's full-size skull decorations put the weight anywhere between 12 oz. and 1.5 lbs, so I'm just going to assume about a pound per skull. This means you can print about two skulls per kg of filament, which would put a rough cost of $10 per skull. That's cheaper than the one at Spirit Halloween, so obviously a win, right?

Not even close. The other factor is time. A single 3D printer can only produce one skull at a time, and it's going to take a while to print due to its size. I've seen various estimates of how long it would take to print a skull, but they generally said about a day. That's a full day of your 3D printer doing nothing but printing a single skull, which means a full day of not being able to do anything else with it. This also doesn't factor in the time lost to print errors, forcing you to scrap the project and start over. I'm assuming they're using a model from elsewhere that's already designed for 3D printing, but I wouldn't put it past them to still fuck up somewhere.

And then you need to consider cleanup and painting. I wouldn't be surprised if they just shoved the raw plastic skulls outside and called it a day, but if they actually cared to make them look decent, they'd need to sand and paint them to look more like real bone. That's gonna cost additional time and materials, which might keep it barely below the Spirit skull, but it also might push it over. I don't feel like calculating paint costs, so we'll just leave that there.

So all that time and effort to save at most three dollars per skull. But remember, they already spent $4500 on the 3D printers in the first place, so in order to break even, they'd need to print 1500 skulls. At three skulls per day, it would take almost a year and a half to fully recoup the cost of the printers in plastic skulls. But hey, they'd have plenty of decorations for Halloween 2023!
tl;dr: John's a wasteful asshole, and I hope Frank's his printers break down.

Literally two days ago:

John says 61,000 people are complete pieces of shit, probably especially those ones who spend all day trying to delete murder videos and child porn while informing authorities:

Didn't Wu actually fall for this or am I confusing with a different cow?

It's a real mystery, John - why hasn't Apple inked a 7-figure deal with legendary games studio GiantSpaceKat yet? Are they just leaving free money on the table?
