Re: A Plea, From One
Well, not to start a fight... but I'm going to simply say that I think that we can lighten up a bit. Slang is part of our society!
You don't measure how cool a robot is with a thermometer...
A robot that rocks don't play in a band...
A really sweet looking arm isn't covered in sugar...
If you've got a sweet bling-bling robot with a rockin' arm and really cool idea for a goal grabber that you CNC'd with straight G-code... good for you!
I'm not going to be the grammar police... Maybe we should try to expand our cultural awareness instead of trying to hinder the non-offensive language of others?
Bling: In reference to money, metals, or overall net worth.
i.e A bling-blinged sprocket would be one that could have a cool CNC pattern cut into it.
Straight G-Code: G-code that is written by hand, without the use of CAD-CAM software
However, let's be clear:
Slang that is offensive is NOT appropriate
Reread for grammer and spel check
Make intelligent posts
Otherwise, have fun and post on...
My two cents,
Matt
