I had to come to the comments to find out what she meant. CNC fabrication was the only thing I could think of.
ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ
Just wanted to say that's an amazing emoticon.
They are built into the Voyager app! (☝︎ ՞ਊ ՞)☝︎
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.
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 prefer "struggle fucking"...
consensual of course
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.

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.
Yeah, feels about right. I actually did develop in c# once and I hated that I was bound to the shitty microsoft tools. They were open source and baack then I didn't really know linux, but I hated them. Just clunky.
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...
The comments prove this is the most relatable meme of all time
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.
It's not necessarily role play of assault, though it can be that. It can also mean that blanket consent has been given ahead of time, and so the subject is unaware of what may happen to them or when, and by the nature of it can't give specific consent for any particular action. It can have to do with pushing/exploring boundaries, a power dynamic kink, or just enjoying the element of surprise, among others.
If you're doing it right, consent can be withdrawn at any time via a pre-established non-verbal signal and/or safeword, and any bondage equipment will have safety releases.
e: In case it's unclear, I just mean that the definition is more broad than that. I don't think there's anything wrong with role-playing assault.

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 bet it's really hot.

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
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

Anyone asking me for CNC, will be pleasantly surprised when a truck arrives with an 5-axis Fanuc.
