hey guys,

i’m setting up a 3D printing business out of (x) currently, there’s basically no one doing this locally on a commercial level.

i want to produce:

cheap, customized phone covers

personalized miniatures of real people (gifts, wedding cake toppers, etc.) home/office decor, toys,

hard-to-find or expensive mechanical spare parts and car components. And i will eventually be making social media content out of it (for marketing).

later i want to turn this into a hub that offers hands-on tech internships for local students.

since everything (filament, parts, machines) has to be imported and shipping takes weeks, i can't afford to buy the wrong gear.

I am looking for any advice from guys running commercial 3d print shops:

hardware: what specific, reliable commercial printers can handle this mix of flexible stuff (for phone cases), high-detail (for miniatures), and tough materials (for car parts)?

operations: what did you wish you knew before trying to sell 3D printed parts to actual paying customers?

any brutal feedback or operational advice you can spare is highly appreciated.

Have you seen how social medias (tiktok,IG,FB,,,,) in rwanda push for low effort skits, absurd stunts for clicks, or dramas meant to spark rage?

Yeap you read it write , he is older than israel.

He was born in 1943 , way before the creation of israel.

He believes in the statehood of israel tho.

He thinks that they kinda represent christians.

I will show this to him

I am talking of countries that support terrorism (abroad or domestically)

Hey everyone

I’m curious about the relationship between regular people from Uganda and Rwanda,

Beyond whats happening in the news or politics, how do you see your neighbors to the south? If you’ve traveled here, worked with Rwandans, or have family ties, what’s your honest take on the cultural similarities and differences? Just looking for some genuine perspectives. Thanks!

I want to challenge the deep assymetry in how global media/international institutions, and public discourse assign collective guilt for state-sanctioned violence

When a country like Russia or Israel conducts a brutal military campaign , or when states like Iran, Pakisitan or Afghanistan are under the control of hostile regimes , global narrative structures often flatten the distinction btn the government and the citizens. The citizens are frequently shown as complicts, enablung or inherently aligned with terror and destabilization bcz they live under, pay taxes to or fail to overthrow these regimes..

However this standard is never applied equally . By any objective definition of state sponsored destabilization,civilian casualties or unilateral military interventions, the US government has executed actions over the last several decades that match and exceed the criteria used to label other nations as terrorist states; from the invasion of vietnam,korea ,iraq to drone strikes causing massive civilian collateral damage , the structural impact on human lives is undeniable .

My view is that if we accept the fact that citizens bear collective moral responsibility for the actions of their politicians ,elites and oligarchs then US citizens should logically be viewed through that dame . Conversely if we recognize that everyday american are powerless against the decisions of their regimes , we must grant that same nuances to the citizens of Iran, Russia,israel, Pakisitan, Afghanistan,somalia,etc. The current standard is pure geopolitical hyoocrisy.

I am open yo changing my view if someone demonstrate a meaningful structural difference in how civilian complicity works in democracy versus an autocracy regarding foreign interventions or if they can show that the definition of state sponsored terror inherently excludes western democratic frameworks. .

Apart from the president of Lebanon.
