Alright, kiddos. It's time to... Kick! That! Beehive!
You may or may not have been following the recent drama involving the Tesseract Lemmy UI. Much hilarity has ensued. I will spare you the synopsis.
What this has to do with 3D printing is, I naturally took it upon myself to run with the suggestion and design an award for anyone cool enough to be on the Tesseract secret ban list.
A physical award, mind you.
You can download it from Printables here.
I included the FreeCAD source file also, which alas includes some rather heavy duty prerendered text for the front part, but perhaps you can mess with it as you see fit anyhow. I realized belatedly I was probably unconsciously inspired quite a bit by that old "winners don't do drugs" seal that used to appear on arcade machines back in the day. I kind of like the vibe, though, so I'm sticking with it. It's got wings, a hang tab to dangle it off of a lanyard or zipper pull, it's got it all.
I would be remiss if I did not mention for them as do not own or have access to a 3D printer that I am also selling these already printed on my shop, under the perhaps misguided assumption that I will neither get crucified here for my crass commercialism nor go broke on postage mailing them out.
I am on the list and am mortified! I am not an extremist and believe in free speech and liberty and normal voting processes. My views mostly align with Northern European liberal political view. How the fucking hell am I on this horrible list? What in the fuck did I do? Fuck these assholes in all their holes for saying this shit about me. I am nice!
There's also no way, that I know of, to get off this fucking shitcunt list. What the fuck do I need to do to not be on this list?
As dual_sport_dork said, you really shouldn't worry about it, and you're probably better off not having anything to do with Admiral Patrick, but if you really wanted to pursue it, you could PM Admiral Patrick and (very nicely) ask him how you ended up on the list and ask him to remove you. (Right now, he's probably getting flooded with messages that are likely to generally piss him off (more so than usual), so it's definitely worth being extra nice if you want that to have any chance of success.)
You really don't need to worry about it. Said list exists only within the tiny padded cell that is the Tesseract client. If you are not using it, and no one you are interacting with is using it, it doesn't affect anything or anyone. That's part of what makes this so hilarious.
Now that the cat is out of the bag I suspect that Tesseract is being used by a vanishingly small number of people.
Isn't that a good thing? Your comments essentially become hidden to bigots and downvote army.
