Github was probably being used because someone in government considers it COTS software from a reliable American corporation. Those people who used to insist on using IIS instead of Apache are still around!

The big tech CEOs lined up to kiss Donald Trumpâ(TM)s ass and donate to his various grifts. Now heâ(TM)s started an unwinnable war and itâ(TM)s biting them on the ass. I hope Iran starts extracting millions of dollars a day from American tech companies and using the money to pay bad actors to hack other American companies. It will teach American business leaders a good lesson.

"Cocaine back in coke." - why was it removed in the first place?

Thought I recognized one name, Cavill, but never saw anything they listed for him. Musta been somebody else. Hollywood continues its streak of not being part of my life.

To get accepted into Harvard (as an undergrad) a person usually needs a cumulative GPA above 4.0, a very high SAT school, participation in multiple extracurricular activities, fluency in multiple languages, excellent writing skills, and it helps to excel at playing an instrument. Shouldn't it be expected that all of these people are capable of getting high grades? It seems like the problem here is Harvard's faculty forgetting that the school only accepts the best of the best. I would think that something is terribly wrong if most Harvard students were not earning A grades in all of their classes.

"Act of God" is a legal term of art. You should be blaming lawyers and governments.

That just means our security was good. You little anecdote isn't actual data.

Trump is doing all in his power to fight for the little guy including stopping foreign H1B1 Visa holders.

The democrats care about the foreignors. Not us!

I can print to my Bambu printer locally by using LAN only or an SD card, not sure why you think I need their cloud to print at all.

Also https://orca-slicer.com/ is not offline, some kind of a fork of it is offline.

Completely disagree. 100% disagree. If I need something that my printer from Bambu cannot do I will get another printer. For what I need it though it is great and keeps me from *wasting* time. My time is what is important to me more than money.

I like their products. I just want printing without fuss and without having to learn every detail about leveling, etc. Their product works for me and I do not care about its openness, it is about as important for what I need it as my headphones being open sourced (not at all). So this product is for my use case, not for people who want to control every aspect of their printer and every software feature.

IF they decide to make it prohibitively expensive to operate their hardware, then I will go back to a less capable hardware kit.

"Sounds like they're trying to make a ladies bike"
Wow, that's some 1pth century anti women on bike BS right there.

Ys, for a kid. an adult wants a pretend part because they can't get with the times is pathetic.

Imagine being so insecure you have to pretend to be using an older version of an engine? sad.

JFC, are you still trolling people with nonsense? Two decades? I guess being a person who barley got an AS, then ending up a TV Repair man makes you sad and you just take it out on others with your trolling and rage baiting. It's a really unhealthy way to try and make your self feel like you have value.
