Oh look, it’s another billionaire fucking up our lives.
This is the world on billionaires. Any questions?
Louis continues to do the work of God

From #LouisRossmann: The #3DPrinting control laws cropping up in #NewYork, #Colorado, and other states all result from an #astroturf campaign funded by control freak oligarch #MichaelBloomberg, the former #NYC mayor who pioneered the un-Constitutional and rights-violating racist police practice of #stopAndFrisk.
The claims to be about #gunControl are a smokescreen, and “Every Town Demands Action” is merely a means to the end of mandating surveillance and permission for every form of part manufacturing that is possible independently of large factories. It is actually a campaign to make everyone but billionaires require government approval to manufacture anything, in order to destroy any possibility for anyone but the ruling class to compete or to make or repair our own things.
It is part of a larger demostrated pattern of seeking to control as much as everyone else’s lives as possible.

From @jimmytechsf and #LouisRossmann: “Microsoft revokes Office 2019 perpetual licenses, then edits their website to gaslight customers.”
It seems #Microsoft has decided that “perpetual” means “temporary.” Such changing of the terms of the sale after the sale should lead to individual criminal prosecution of Microsoft executives, but alas, they’ve undoubtedly EULA-washed what everyone with a conscience and any capacity for critical thinking would still agree amounts to #fraud.

Oh no, #flashforge is the next #3dprinter to #enshitify!!!! #3dprinting
The new firmware injects #ai ads into your slicer software 🤦

Some non-corpie #Democrats are finally picking up #rightToRepair and #rightToOwn. Great to see. Angela Baker of #ParkrosePermaculture adapts the message well for audiences besides the nerds who’ve been subscribed to #LouisRossmann for years.
This is non-partisan issue that Republicans under Trump won’t touch, because they’re afraid of offending Donald’s patron oligarchs. It’s also an issue which will land well with a lot of voters who are much less likely to care about the usual leftist issues as such. It’s a great complement to those issues, and it doesn’t run contrary to anything important to the leftist or progressive base.

I forked Bambu Labs.
I'll avoid the subtoot and just post a (somewhat) positive message:
#bambu #bambulabs are doing #enshittification at speed and on purpose. They define "community" as "people who gave us money, under our rules and control". We know that. The occasional reminder for #3dprinting is still good.
If you want to amplify that message, focus on the positive people such as #LouisRossmann: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1jhRqgHxEP8
That's it. That's the toot.

Me fascinan las #impresoras3d. No tengo una por tema de consumo eléctrico y por el material de impresión (plástico) y sus residuos.
Pero si uno ve videos de algunos usuarios, pronto se encuentra que unas cuantas compañias han creado este imperio apropiandosé de código y hardware abiertos y gratuitos.
Y pretenden cerrarlo a su antojo para seguir ganando dinero y ningunear a sus clientes.
Aquí un video sobre estas prácticas que afecta a Bambu Labs, una de las compañias de impresoras 3D mas conocidas y populares.
Solo por este intento monopolístico sobre un codigo con licencia #AGPL no compraría nada de ellos. 🤬
Louis Rossman se enfrenta a Bambu Labs por emprender acciones legales contra un desarrollador de código abierto. #impreesion3d

[email protected] - Louis Rossman takes on #BambuLabs for taking legal action on an open source developer - and holy shit, Louis, I was not familiar with your game!
The video is very much worth a watch but the last 4 minutes are actually amazing.
Louis details all of the other big tech and pharma companies that attempted the same thing with him and how he’s beat them.
Absolutely Trojan work.
