The rules are written explicitly to cater to Trump's edition so they will be forced to buy only Trump's edition. Meaning they can now fund Trump's nazi grift using Oklahoma taxpayer funds legally.

even though it raises taxes on fewer than 2% of businesses
Bad metric. What percentage of sales by dollar amount does it impact? That will provide a much more accurate indication of the real consumer cost impact. If those 2% of businesses by count do 50% of sales volume by $ in the state, that's a problem (in multiple ways tbh)

It's both lack of competition and the end of Moores law. We've effectively reached the end of silicon gate sizes and the tooling complexity required to keep shrinking process nodes and increase transistor density is increasing exponentially, so semiconducters no longer get cheaper... and it's starting to push these cutting edge nodes outside of economic viability for consumer products. I'm sure TSMC is taking a very healthy profit cut for sure but the absolute magic they have to work to have 2nm work at all is beginning to be too much.

It's because knock-on effects of government policies take around 4-6 years to fully materialize. Republicans fully understand this and also understand that the average American dumb fuck has a political long term memory of 3 months at best. They can fuck everything up in a term or two, pass the buck to the incoming Democrat, and then blame the Democrat for everything they completely broke. Just look at the final massive deregulation that Bush pushed leading to the 2008 crash that Obama had to deal with - which they could then conveniently blame on Obama himself!

I didn’t write that article though.
Right on schedule! Just as predictable as a broken record player.
Idk man. I usually read the articles I post and make sure to understand them before I go spamming. And I don't post intentionally false and misleading articles to communities with the somewhat transparent optics of trying to stir up shit. If you aren't understanding what your posting, you are at best unintentionally damaging honest discourse... but I think we both know your "playing dumb" act is a farce.
Have a good weekend.

Yeah that study is probably "true" but very myopic. I believe I commented on this the last time it was posted.
Sure, total co2/ch4 emissions is likely higher. Liquefying and transporting LNG isn't energy free, while coal is typically burned closer to where it's mined. I get that's probably the tact they're trying to take, fossil fuel still bad and don't let LNG get too greenwashed.
HOWEVER. The study and article seems to intentionally completely ignore all the secondary emissions of coal. Tallying "emissions" for a picture of true environmental impact is way way way more than just X tons of co2. Burned coal creates a massive amount of atmospheric ash and particulate that is chock full of heavy metals, literal radioactivity, and sulfur/nox that generates acid rain. The tailings from mining and the fly ash from burning is also incredibly toxic and destroys all groundwater for miles and miles around it. It's just one huge bad flaming lump of cancer that sanitizes entire ecosystems and reduces life expectancy by multiple decades in places where it is heavily used.
Natural gas generates none of this, with the exception of fracking groundwater problems (which, is admittedly a problem, but still way less concentrated than the previously mentioned). A fuel stock of >95% CH4 with the remainder made up of water and longer chain hydrocarbons emits nothing but CO2 and water vapor. Also, combined cycle gas power plants have some of the highest end to end thermal efficiencies of any power plant ever built, which is another huge plus over coal.
So no, it's not perfect, and its still "bad". but it is doing a fucking bang good job of not giving people cancer and getting a dirty 18th century energy source out of our modern society where it does not belong.

If you dig deep enough you'll find some blatant racist shit in one of the conservative comms too, unless it got nuked by a mod. I don't really care enough to go digging for it either.
Edit: oh here it is
(This is blatantly false, nothing in the law states this, it was doctored up by racists to drive immigrant hate)
Do a search and they've posted like 10 other articles to the conservative comm as well.
And also prempting Mr Monk as I know what he'll say: "I only post the articles!!!1!11!". Sure buddy. Sure.

Stratasys is losing ground because their massively overpriced ecosystem is getting outclassed by literally everything else in the market. So why improve if you can just sue your competition out of the US market?
I've been doing functional ABS and ASA lately and had a couple very annoying warpage spots. One was a total failure. (We won't talk about the other 3 failures that were wet out-of-the-box Bambu ASA...) The X1C is definitely nice, but the all aluminum-and-glass side panelling has a sometimes-unwanted side effect: thermal conduction. The aluminum sides are so conductive that they do not allow the chamber temp to go above 40C, even after a couple hours of heat soaking the build plate at 100C before starting an ABS print. Enter: One random bath towel. doesn't look like much but just covering the three sides with a thin layer means it's good enough insulation to get the chamber up to 50C now! And the ABS parts look better than ever- every C counts.
