So the normal debuggers that we have for ages, right?

Well, the other thing is that except for the instant film, there's no instant gratification in this hobby. Even when one processes at home, the typical time form a photo to a print is measured in hours.

A lot of it is, but let's agree that using "prior" is just fucking pretentious

I think that 3D printing never picked up, because it's one of those things that empower the people, i.e. to repair stuff or build their own things, so the number of opportunities to grift seems to be smaller (although I'm probably underestimating it).

I think ClownStrike is the name they deserve

He also did sawzall, but thankfully that didn't get widely adopted

Switzerland requires "wet" signatures too
