Asshole? Maybe... No reason... Well even in reddit, the First Thing people always askin is "where did you got the stl" and i am being honestly sick of people askin where to find the stl when everybody knows sites like thangs, printables and at least THINGIVERSE! And Yeah you find the exact Same Model on all those sites when you type in "Klein Bottle" some of them in the picture.
Nope, i obviously have a reason and i am allowed to be sick of people who dont even try to type three words.
Maybe there is a nicer way to teach people that. And yeah maybe i need to learn that (in a harsh way) too. But if somebody is capable of using something like a 3D printer (which is kinda hard imho), i expect them to Know at least how to search.
Perhaps but if you are doing a show and tell, why not do the full tell?
I can remember when Google didn't exist and Altavista was the cool kid, or when the www didn't exist and gopher and WAIS were the tools of choice. ... and I can go much further back.
My real point is: If you are going to show a bit of ankle, and it is yours, make sure that everyone realises it is your ankle. If it isn't your ankle, then tell us whose it is. It's not fair asking people to search for pictures of ankles and then try to guess which one you have posted about.
But back to topic. Yeah i get your point, even if I still think "But yeah we have 2023 and not floppy disks anymore..." and maybe i overreacted a lil bit about the question with a salty link reply...
In the end i think you're right the World is full enough of shitty people, next time i try to reply a bit nice even if I am pissed off that it happened the 265916th time (i cannot promise But i will try ;))
So for everybody who read the discussion Till here:

I also recommend to print it with "two layer Support" because i had a lot of trouble that everything kept on the print bed even with really big beim setup.
Thanks man!
