Like, why do you care so much if she’s sleeping with a new guy after just divorcing or her coming out or that rich family buying a new mansion? How does that affect your life?

I don’t really understand it, but I think you can apply your argument to anything. Why watch Game of Thrones, how does that affect your life? Why browse Lemmy, how does that affect your life? Why play video games, how does that affect your life? Why watch sports, how does it affect your life?
The answer is probably something like “because I enjoy it”, and the answer for the gossipers is probably the same. So who am I to judge.
Nice one
My hobbies could beat up your hobbies
My hobbies could asphyxiate or poison your hobbies.
(I just started my distillation process today to recover and purifify isopropyl alcohol from my 3D resin prints, if you were curious.)
Actually, your hobby could cure my hobby (resin printing).
This thread took an unexpectedly neat turn. I wonder if there’s a good hobbies community on Lemmy somewhere where folks post about the interesting stuff they get up to.
Or a hobby exchange where people help other people with their hobby in a mutually beneficial manner.
Shit, I just re-invented a barter economy didn’t I.
I’m still in the PLA printing world. It’s plenty sufficient for my electronics projects.
The makerspace here on campus has a resin printer and the results are really cool.
I am in it mostly for functional prints, but I couldn’t help myself and had to do some fun stuff when I started learning about resin and such. The details are amazing.
That was some of the neatest benefits to resin: organic shapes. When doing figures, creatures, and plants, resin is better than PLA for the final look and feel. The fineness of the print is also great. That’s a phenomenal Xenomorph and the details really show through.
I like PLA (and Petg & abs) for maintenance and utilities printing. Like, i print kitchen helpers like drawer dividers, hangers etc.
I printed a ton of helper stuff, as well as some house parts. We have a 1920 house, so there lots of odd books and crannies. In the past, I’d buy standard house parts (electrical covers, fixtures, etc) and then cut/mod them to fit. Now, I CAD up a custom part, print it, seal it with a clear coat, and bam! It fits perfectly.
