I'm thinking very very stupid. No sprues for casting.

Agreed. This is all stuff that at MOST should be accessible over the LAN. The ESP32 is cheap and provides the WiFi and enough power to run a simple RESTful web app. If I actually need/want to access it remotely, it'll be through a well protected integrated web servie on a jump box.

A cheaper manufacturer could probably make the ESP32 do double duty as the primary micro-controller with a suitable interrupt routine.

The situation was worse than I thought. According to the AAIB report, they tested the material and found the glass transition temperature to be about 53C, so the jackass printed it in PLA.

Also, since it's Poly Lactic Acid, our metabolism is already well equipped to deal with the breakdown product.

It's great for things that will be indoors at room temperature. I made a snap-on camera mount for my monitor that has held up great. But if it was a dash mount, it would need to be PETG or CF-PA6 to not sag in the summer.

Immigrants, and even migrants, have a lower rate of criminal behavior than native born Americans. So blow it out your ass.

"That starts with enforcing a fucking border. " Why? What do you hope to gain by keeping out a large group of people who want to work in the U.S., pay taxes, raise families, and generally work in jobs native born Americans won't touch? Who's more American than these people? Answer: Not You.

And the Autopen meme is bullshit. Anyone want to guess how much of whatever crap la Presidenta signs he actually reads or understands? The things he "signs" are constructed at Project 2025 Central Command, he's just a useful idiot who thinks he president.

Yes, but the U.S. has the one of the greatest disparities between rich and poor in a country.

Getting their jobs sent to American AI won't be noticeably better for American workers than getting their jobs sent to Chinese AIs.

It makes perfect sense, you explained clearly how it could happen.

The reasonable way of looking at it is, "What is the probability of that happening?" That's a scientific question.

From a technical point of view, you can also ask why would you ever make your compiler target LLVM bitcode. There are better options.

Canada didn't kick the crazy people out of the party. Carney put them in his cabinet.

According to an AAIB Field Investigation report (pg. 4), two samples from the intake were tested and found to have a glass transition temperature of 54.0C and 52.8C

So some idiot printed them in PLA. PLA is great but is very much NOT temperature resistant. It has been known to sag in a hot car.
