And a huge amount of items are “3D print this”. This was disappointing. It’s basically just a curated printables list. The stuff listed looked really well designed, but I was hoping for more of a “here’s simple machines and tools to build when you don’t have access to better equipment”

And? Look, it’s cool what they were doing, but THEY WON. They got awareness out, got it legislated, and now it’s being done on a scale that is more sustainable than tiny Mom and Pop businesses can manage.

They literally got what they were asking for, but… checks notes they’re upset because their capitalistic dream part of it is being crushed? That they didn’t get to become the kingpins of this particular industry? Oh no. Heaven forbid we do what they wanted to such a scale that they couldn’t keep up anymore.

You just can’t win.
