I’m down.
Is there any other meaning…?
I had to noodle on this one for a while and ask around. I think, and this is only a guess, that this might be “consensual non-consent”, which is a role play of sexual assault.
Wait so not command and conquer?
Red Alert was such great times.
SPAAAAyAAAAACE
Well I got a new tablet wallpaper
Same it’s going right on the CRT. Goodbye Degurechaff and Cain. Hello Soviet Tim Curry.
Tim Curry <3
GREAT theme music riff.
The safe word is “Tiberium.”
Ah nostalgia. Please tell me there’s a Linux port of this.
Runs quite well with WINE using CnCnet.
Im addicted to general zero hour, you can buy the cnc collection on steam and it runs fine.
I wish EA wasn’t so shit at programming, it crashes if you minimize the window. Or has a mismatch if theres to many units on the ground.
Theres mods to fix issues, but i cant figure out how to make it work under wine.
EA also open sourced the code and people are working on fixing bugs
Oh! That could be it!
SPACE!
Wow, I’ve never been more terrified of “CNC machines”…
Wtf?
My partners into it. I’m into BDSM and it threw me off for a while. I think of it like the most extreme version of a sub/ dom sex play with roleplay. It’s definitely something that requires a whole lot of forethought, communication, and most of all, CONSENT.
That’s the spirt!
I had to learn to program CNC machines with punch tape back in the eighties, so not too far off.
Yep, thats it
Ironically a few years back I was starting a project at work and was told one of the machines was a “miyano” I didn’t know what that was so I googled it… Entire first page of images was anime.
Turns out it was a 12 axis lathe…
12 axis??
Well it had 3 bits from different directions that each moved in 4 axis(in/out, up/down, left right, spin) which could be used simultaneously and controlled independently.
Thats fucking wild
I bet programing that thing is like flying a spacecraft
Yeah it’s not something you program repeatedly though. You basically program once and hit a button and walk away and it will make hundreds to thousands of whatever.
My understanding was you basically programmed it in steps. So like on step 1 operation on one bit, on other bit at same time run this operation and on third bit run this operation at same time. Now when all of those operations are complete move to step 2 and repeat.
To make it more difficult there was also an automatic bar loader and a automatic bucket changer(it dumped the parts into buckets).
Also to make it run fast you tried to balance each axis operations in a each step so no axis was ever stopped waiting for the other operations but you also had to stop them periodically to control heat and not break the bits since due to the products we were not allowed to use coolant.
It took 3 senior engineers and 2 junior engineers 2 years to set it up to make 3 different products reliably. It was awesome when it eventually ran properly though.

No
Anyone asking me for CNC, will be pleasantly surprised when a truck arrives with an 5-axis Fanuc.
You just have a spare $100,000 laying around?
Hello, I am here asking you for CNC! When should I expect the truck? And does it come with tooling as well? 😁
Ooo boy, she’s about to learn about g-code!
We don’t talk to police, we don’t make a peace bond.
We don’t trust in the judicial system, we shoot guns.
We rely on the streets though we do battle in the hood.
I was born in the G Code, embedded in my blood.The g-code spot is a myth!
Command and Conquer?
If we play Red Alert, I call Great Britain!
I literally do not understand the meme. Is the first meaning of CNC something sexual?
Consensual non consent.
Also known, or formerly known as rape play.
I feel like calling it rape play is just more honest.
It’s more blunt, but people who have been raped would point out that there’s a big difference between the sexual nature of consensual non consent, and the objectively violent nature of rape.
It’s less that it’s less honest than that it’s more clear about what it is, and what it isn’t. It’s about what people think rape is about, and not what it actually is: angry, hateful and violent.
But consensual non consent as well as rape can be soft
Eg free use -> CNC
Or use of power, like financial dependency -> rape
That’s fair, and a good example on the first one.
I don’t really care to quibble on the details too much, but I believe a lot of definitions would distinguish the coercive from the forcible.
In either case, it speaks to the cnc phrase being more apt than otherwise.
Well I needed someone to explain consentual non consent to me because its not really logical, and I didnt need rape play explained to me, so there’s that. Seems sort of silly we needed a politically correct term for it in the first place.
Seems to me, it is more an accurate term. „Politically correct“ is still signage of „I am a right-wing asshole“ btw. Even when those assholes switch terms regulary.
How is it more accurate?
You do know that no one made them switch terms right? The people doing it and using the term decided to change it because it made it more clear when they were talking to each other.
Since you hadn’t encountered the idea before, I don’t think they’re super concerned about their sex lives being easy to explain to you. Your opinion isn’t super relevant to other people’s sexual preferences or the words they use to talk about it to each other.Well, its as relevant as anyone else’s opinion here, which is like you said not much. Good talk though.
Well, less than the people who said “oh, okay” when they learned what the term meant. Getting hung up on how you feel about the words they use for their sex lives is really weird.
It got ruined by anti-edgelord zoomers who put shit like “seggs” in their TikTok captions to prevent demonetization.
And the use of computerized numerically controlled fabrication can’t be part of consentual non co!sent because…???
If you say so I’ll believe you. Not my cup o tea
I’m just imaging a ‘no Mr. Bond. I expect you to die’ situation, but, I dunno, sexy?
What about that situation isn’t hot to begin with?
All men, the worst common gender. And the thing is just moving in a line. Nothing’s really happening outside that. Nobody’s leg is being flash frozen with liquid nitrogen and lathed into a dildo here.
And let me guess, it’s not called that anymore because 1. it’s not really rape 2. it got mixed up too often and then people got soft on it?
I’m not sure if the details around it. Not my cup o tea
Pretty niche topic
Meh, as kinks go thats pretty common
Yeah, but I don’t know if the interest is then as common to be interested in it’s history to such an extend that you know stuff like that.
Sorry I’m not understanding what you mean… (I’m pretty sick right now so it could just be me being dumb)
Computerized non-consent.
Heheheheheheheheheheheheehehehheehhehehe I can’t stop grinning
I’m sorry, I’ll turn the computer off. I didn’t realize it was still running.
That’s actually horrific. Pleasure to death by rounding error was not on my bingo card.
Yeah, sorry. I thought the cnc machine had better failsafes, but I had to code some of it in c# so…
I hate c# for some reason, but I can’t remember why. Kind regards, Java dev.
I think its the proprietary ms one that only runs 100% right¹ on windows.
¹or is supposed to-windows is windows and wine exists.
consensual non consent
IT’S DYNAMITE
Joke’s on you, I don’t know either (any) meaning of this abbrevation!
I’m a woman and That’s what i thiught too. Is there a sexual conotation to cnc? Maybe that’s why my sex life is shit
consensual nonconsent, aka rape kink
wtf
It can be really fun. But the “rape” is misguided, some like the “rape kink” but CNC is not only this.
Sexual acts that aren’t consented to are rape. I dont see how CNC could involve other stuff and still call it CNC.
Domination, force, …
Isn’t that part of a different thing? Might not make much a difference either way though.
No. It’s shit because you don’t have enough CNC hardware to attract a lover.
Makes sense. I bought a fucking 3d printer instead of investing on a cnc. I’m dumb
Both, both is good.
Rookie mistake. But still salvagable if you modify your printer to work with metals. Think of it as reverse CNC milling of some sort
Sorry dear. Interested in absolutely terrible women? Coukd probably catch something with that.
Why is it ALWAYS CNC?
It’s like the DNS of sexual fantasies for women.
Because total submission is hot.
Because being wanted so much that somebody is willing to throw away their common ethical code is hot.
Because rough sex is hot.
Because doing these things in a safe space with somebody you actually fully trust is really hot.
Have you touched a CNC tool tip right after a non-watercooled job?
I just came.
Domain Name Server?
Yas
What can i say
Dealing with DNS is basically masochism
GODAMNIT NOT AGAIN!
Hi
So, command 'n conquer?
This activated neurons I thought died eternity ago
Porque no los dos?
I’ve found that subs really dig it when you’ve machined your own spanky tools…
Also, HAAS are some jank ass machines. Tiny ways, newer controls are glitter covered shit, they fucked up the remote handwheel…
Babe, you got a Haas? I said I wanted to try CNC, not this Fischer Price Tinker Toy shit.
(I don’t actually hate on Haas but I know they’re often more light-duty than some other options.)
The moment when they g78 💀💀💀💀💀
(Peck drill can cycle)
Imagine a drill bit going up in down
So a CNC programmer writes how a CNC session in the bed should go?
Ok babe are you a fanuc based controller or a 3d party derivative?
This is very important because of interpolation…
