<p>I’ve been using Thingiverse pretty heavily since I started printing, and I frequently come across the same text block in unrelated models. Am I missing the joke or a hidden meaning in the frequent reuse of the following content?</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Designed up this dealer button to use in home games or have just as something laying around for any poker fan. It was inspired by a dealer button in Pokerstars VR.</p>
<p>Printing:</p>
<p>Ring - Infil to add weight, supports needed for spade inset. Letter embossing doesn't need it.<br />
Spade - Infil to add weight, no supports<br />
Letters - Print flat, already scaled to fit nicely in the embossing<br />
Star - Infil to add weight.</p>
<p>Full print with 4x4x4 walls/top/bottom and 38% infil came to about 48g in weight.</p>
<p>Glue in lettering and spade. Star may need minor sanding but should push fit into the space tightly and not need anything else to secure it.</p>

<p>Here is an example of what I mean: <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4887617" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Voronoi bear</a>. Just curious if anyone knows why that’s used as a pseudo default description, or if I should avoid those files for any reason I’m unaware of.</p>
<p>Here’s another example: <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4871879" rel="nofollow noreferrer">cats</a></p>

Based on comments, this may also be a relatively recent change at Thingiverse; I've only uploaded designs there over the past few months, and I've seen it every time over that time frame (since about April 2021).</p>\n"}]
