@BuckSlayer8774@MF1Updates@DirtyD____@tdgross89@indy44 For all you know they were both on the button - that's why you suck. There isn't a specific area on the track where they can use it nor any distance limits that dictate usage - it's a free for all to regen and deploy based on strategy, nothing else.
@BuckSlayer8774@MF1Updates@DirtyD____@tdgross89@indy44 They BOTH have a button - they both can deploy any time assuming they have power to deploy. If Malukas deployed his earlier and Rosenqvist saved his for that last push, that's not the button's fault. You hear "deploy" and don't know anything about how it works, nice.
@loyalmoses@JamesMcPherson Really? If they're so good at it - why did they base it off of what Prusa already built? asking for a friend. You sound like an idiot.
@loyalmoses shut up. Your ignorance speaks louder than your words. "Bambu Quality Experience"? It wouldn't have been possible without Prusa's code. You're a shill. Take your $$$ from Bambu and run with it. You want to support Bambu - well... have them make their own slicer.
BambuStudio has been violating PrusaSlicer AGPL license since their fork, with the same networking binary black box in question today. Why are they willing to burn the goodwill over it?
There's something most have sensed but never seen it all in one place, the five-law framework China built between 2017 and 2023 ⤵️
So maybe their hand is forced as their "network" is too valuable already? Each law on its own, interesting, okay... Read them together, and add any Chinese company with big reach to the mix you get the complete picture.
1) National Intelligence Law (2017)
All organizations and citizens must "support, assist, and cooperate" with intelligence work. The same law makes it illegal to disclose that cooperation happened. Cooperation is mandatory, and silence about it is mandatory too.
2) Cryptography Law (2020)
Commercial encryption must be state-approved and state-reviewed. When authorities request it, companies must provide decryption keys or plaintext. The state on both sides of that equation is the same one.
3) Data Security Law (2021)
Article 2 gives the state extraterritorial reach over data that touches Chinese national security or public interests. So EU/US data hosting does nothing to make it safe, because jurisdiction follows the company, not the server location.
4) Counter-Espionage Law revision (2023)
The general definition of espionage was expanded to cover "documents, data, materials, or items related to national security and interests." Industrial data is one of the intended targets since the revision.
5) Network Product Security Vulnerability regulation (2021)
Any company or researcher that discovers a software vulnerability must report it to MIIT within 48 hours. From there it flows to CNNVD (China National Vulnerability Database of Information Security), operated by the 13th Bureau of the Ministry of State Security. Microsoft's threat intelligence team documented Chinese state-hacker zero-day usage rising after this took effect. Shows the willingness to use the “tools” China built.
Together they describe a system with no neutral exits. Cooperation is required, encryption is real but the spare keys live at the ministry, jurisdiction follows the company across borders, industrial data is in scope, and discovered vulnerabilities flow to an intelligence agency 😬
3D printing became strategic for China in 2020 and joined the “Made in China 2025” plan soon after. Why does 3D printing matter so much? 1/x
Question: @AlexanderRossi and @Hinchtown if the hybrid shuts down (presumably out of abundance of caution), shouldn’t a hybrid failure resulting in a stopped car logically require prompt driver exit given the same risk profile? Dumb and illogical call on so many levels.
Hey @CruiseNorwegian - You booked us into an airport 2 hours from where all of our transfers are scheduled and separated us from our group - now telling us we have to PAY to fix this?? What??
@JDVance This is kind of like going to an axe-throwing bar and watching someone step into the path of a flying axe whilst shooting the thrower claiming self defense.
@JDVance I’m not saying everyone acted appropriately here, including driver - but the ICE agent recording walked around and in front of the car just as another ICE agent was yanking at the door of a woman who clearly wasn’t aggressive and who had a clear exit path until he stood there.
@JDVance If what you say justifies the shooting, I think the officers in Washington on Jan 6 would have shot hundreds of people… would that be similarly justified since their lives were endangered?
Lol. @UPS driver showed up today with 1 of my 2 packages. Said the other must have gotten on another truck. Called @UPS, 70+ minute wait, was told I could use their callback system.... which just called me back 40 minutes later and put me in a 30 minute queue. #Efficient?
@AskOffTrack@Hinchtown@AlexanderRossi@TheTimDurham@TOMotorsports I just love the great racing dialogue mixed in with witty banter and just enough “life outside the track” chatter to make the show easy and fun to listen to. It’s like 100 days to indy without having to stare at Newgarden’s abs.
Got tired of the lights flickering every time my HVAC kicked on. Did some research - found the reason and a solution - blogged about it -> https://t.co/FYwbNAHPEg
@josefprusa@josefprusa I saw your email and blog posts.... but the date is still changing as of today. I want the printer - what should I cancel to allow it to ship? I've reached out to support twice now and they keep saying "it will ship this week" - but it doesn't. Thanks.
@josefprusa I ordered my core one on 2/19 along with filter kit and camera. From May all the way to today, each time I check the order the shipping estimate start and end dates slip by one day... it's not an estimate any longer, it's a sliding scale. What's up?
Another product I am loving - FuelKeg 1-lb refillable propane tanks. Get out of the cycle of overpaying for 1-lb cylinders that just fill our landfills, drop to $1 per refill using your big tank -> https://t.co/zJhGRfa430
Sometimes I like to share cool products I've found and started using that I really like... first - an awesome camping table - folds up small, sturdy and made of materials to support even your travel grill -> https://t.co/doz8HIjjzy
