>Now that you have your art on a board, you’re going to have to find a company that manufactures PCBs
It seems to me like I've been successfully stopped from printing circuit boards by this clickbait article. It's about how to design and send a board somewhere to get it manufactured, not about printing it yourself.
My closest approach to printing a board myself was to print guide lines it using a 3D printer and hammering in some copper.

> It’s not rocket science to fix what’s broken
Maybe but as your first line is to advocate for wholesale theft and breach the Fourth and Fifth Amendments of the Constitution, I feel it's just possible that your solution is perhaps ill-considered and overly simplistic.

You can insult lions all you want but they still have their pride.

There’s plenty of money sitting in corporate vaults overseas. We take that money and set up funds that people in the US can borrow at low to no upfront cost to start businesses. Also we enforce tax law already on the books so this situation doesn’t happen again. And enforce monopoly laws so Kroger doesn’t buy up every locally owned grocery store off of taxpayer dollars.
It’s not rocket science to fix what’s broken, it just requires us to admit that our system sucks ass and we deserve better than a handful of rich assholes hoarding wealth at our expense. We should use that money to help people innovate, not just give away money to rich investors that don’t care if your neighborhood or town or even country fails because they’ll make money off of you either way.
This would be the status quo if not for our politicians being owned by corporations through legalized bribery. So it’s less about what we could have than what we should / would have if not for donkey brained levels of corruption that rival any other country throughout history.

Exactly. Facebook and Twitter understand their businesses better than any average Joe on Reddit.
I don’t understand this decision myself but I’m sure they have their reasons. People commenting things like “bad move, Facebook” just sound dumb.

I have a hard time believing that 2 of the largest companies in the world with some of the largest data resources on the planet would implement this if they weren’t achieving anything.
There’s clearly something to this that critics are missing.
Any sort of objective dialogue on what this could accomplish when Twitter implemented it was drowned out by Reddit’s vocal hate for Elon.

But the workers make the money and do the vast majority of the work. During to good times owners get to reap the rewards and take responsibility for the success, during the bad time they should also absorb that too as much as is possible, and take responsibility

I used to use Visio (it had circuit design tools) for some stuff.
At school we had custom software to do it, but applying of the transfers and the etching of the boards was done by us with the usual chemicals.

I’d run it so it’s profitable, but if there was a dip i don’t think id ask my staff to take a pay cut to keep my salary at 100%

Imagine how the graphics would look like. Having a huge drop every few years without any global recession and in an instant.

It was recalled twice before it was just cancelled. I think the logic was that they basically didn't exist so the rarity would make it worth something.

Who’s trying to stop me?
I printed my own PCBs a decade ago. Not only can you get them done in china, you can simple etch your own right at home (though it will turn out crappy).
