@bombsfall They fired a lot of the people who keep the site online, though. I suspect it will die not due to some grand metasocial shift or even a stunning loss of advertising revenue, but for the banal reason that you can't use a site that you can't load.
@Vick314300@theF35JPO Well sure they might choose to use 3D printing for fabrication now that they have the as-built geometry, but that's downstream of reverse engineering; I suspect the primary problem was that LM wasn't sharing the drawings with them
I have spent most of my career in the PC hardware world, building communities, reviewing gear, and watching the enthusiast space get squeezed.
For years we funded the tech that made modern computing possible. Then AI showed up and took all the GPUs and high-speed memory.
I am not okay with that.

@peteoxenham they're going to be issued new representatives, it's not like they'll be forced to go without representation like they're Arizonans or something
@SpaghettiKozak@bjblastyotitz You can tell them apart by their runtimes. Theatrical cut is 100 minutes, director's cut is 111 minutes. So for example the version on Google Play is 111 minutes and is actually the director's cut even though the description doesn't otherwise indicate that it's the director's cut
@RDisarray@SpaghettiKozak I skimmed this thread and it didn't seem obvious to me that your academic degree helped anywhere. Can you help me see the value by pointing out an example?
My countrymen don't care. Well, they care when the layoff notice comes from the federal government, as we've seen.
If you read or watch their appeals and understand Russia - the enigmatic Russian soul - you can't unsee the similarity to the appeals made to autocrat Vladimir Putin. Surely, DOGE and Elon Musk didn't understand how important MY JOB was. Surely, if Donald Trump can see my video or read my Facebook post, he will personally intervene on MY behalf. I'm a GOOD person. I'm LOYAL to the party. MY work was important. You told me I was special. Chosen.
I voted for him 3 times, and I went to all the rallies within 200 miles of my house. Trump! Only you can save us and I just know you care about ME. Because you told me, only you can save us. My savior would never harm ME!

@JdubAndrew@LowRhoUfo@sandorpetofi34@GrandpaRoy2 BLDC drone motors have permanent magnets on the rotor, not the stator. The stator is wired in such a way as to produce three phases (when appropriately commutated by the ESC, that is).
