Well it's two situations. Look at Google dropping the older Nests. There you can lay in a fine.
For the folding company could make it part of declaring bankruptcy. Standard paperwork.
Either release all your source or prep the needful. Once this is common and expected could even force companies to maintain a public branch to release on cue.
Owning IP is fine. Products ending up in a landfill due to software is not.
Hopefully the law also expands to actually owning all of a product you own. Not paying BMW to unlock the heated seats already in the car you fully paid for.
My concern is weight. I was thinking of embedding earth magnets into the base for weight and stability.Or print in vase mode without a bottom and fill will sand then epoxy a cap on.
I now possess the knowledge about generating power to life off the grid using old motors salvaged from a junkyard thanks to my own personal research and video tutorials.
My intent with bringing that up is the hope of the existence of a document covering this topic in a preppers backup.
In a post apocalyptic scenario humanity has been proven to band together in groups and cooperate to survive. It's less murder/greed and more sharing/helping. In these small groups it would only take one prepper or even an engineer to setup a generator or even just get solar panels to hookup for basic electricity.
Many of these points could be moot in a nuclear scenario where were dealing with EMPs and radiation.
Yeah my first thought was wondering what community projects exist to generate a guide to download all this info. I knew you could download all of Wikipedia but not the rest.
I've seen people make power generators using old washing machine motors. Youtube is full of them. Cutting PVC pipes to make wind ones and even water based ones off of rivers.
I feel like some people would figure out basic electrical grids for led lights in homes at night and possibly a battery bank made of car batteries or something.
Getting a laptop working in that environment wouldn't be too far of a stretch. Just need to find an old brother laser printer and a Linux USB and you're golden.
Print off the critical farming/water treatment stuff you need and power it off.
Ages ago you'd start your day and spend 4-6 hours sorting buckets of envelopes and packages. Then organizing them in smaller batches by block/street. Then 2~4 hours running your route.
Now they have machines do pretty much all the sorting. But you still got a 8 hour shift. So it's 7+ hours of walking instead of the old 2~4. It's extremely physically demanding since you now have to deliver four times the mail due to the automation of part of your job.
See you can keep going with this and just grind the brain into a sausage and feed it to wild animals. Then it gets broken down into nutrients and excreted, then fertilizer into trees.
