Too hard. Have an LLM summarize each comment in an old comment chain so that it obliterates any meaning and burries any real engagement. (I have no evidence, but I think Reddit is scraping external sites and turning posts into comment chains)

Good luck adding drm to a microwave to prevent it from microwaving “fish and fish adjacent shapes”. 3d printers consist of a couple of motors and a hot bit. No computer in there, unless you go for the high end stuff and even then they can’t run that sort of software. MCUs are clocked in MHz, but even a 10 year old computer is clocked in GHz. Even with a cloud connections, how much money have companies poured into “AI” only to have it still get things wrong? Do lawmakers expect a podunk garage team to figure out what Google, Meta, Apple, and literal billions of R&D haven’t?
Since this is effectively a ban, it would result in “healthcare CEO shot by wooden ghost gun” if gun kits are still sold, because 3d printers don’t print guns. They print the “lower” that has the serial number, which is legally, but not practically, defined to be the “gun”. Any gun that doesn’t have a serial is a ghost gun, but the point is moot.
More realistically, it would result in: “healthcare CEO shot by a 2026 special edition 9mm VEHHFU746582 on sale for 1984$, get it before it is banned” because for some reason the legislature is running on rich people feelings, and this shooting is special because of the gun, and not because of EVERYTHING ELSE.
Not super into guns but I’m a bit frustrated with the technical ineptitude of some of these lawmakers. Gun control existed before 3d printers did, this is just half assed. Feel free to correct me if I missed something.
I was introduced to homelab by trying to figure out how my uncles setup. It ran for 4 years after he died, 11 years uptime. The estate probate prevented anyone from touching the equipment for the legal fights, and I get a kick out of thinking of how smug he would have been about it.
Chemicals in this case is another one of those vague amorphous things to be scared of, right up until you know what it is… Could be anything really, baking soda, 5G mind control powder, dusted Bin Laden, your aunties fingernails.
Everything in the world is chemical, including all your natural GMO free organic foods, got that adenosine triphosphate, cellulose, chlorophyll, dihydrogen monoxide.
Gonna go around scaring people by telling them I’ve been buying skewered avian carcasses to eat instead of beef, and showing them a rotisserie chicken.
