RE: Proof of RF Weapons Testing on Civilians...

We need to continue to adopt and develop independent means, both in order to increase our own capabilities, and to continue to erode the power of our enemies. We often notice that things seem to barely progress for a long time, and then suddenly explode in effect, ability, or popularity. This is typical of exponential growth. It is apparent when looking at a chart comparing adoption and dispersion of new technologies in the 20th Century, such as automobiles, radio, television, and computers.

Another feature of exponential growth of technologies is that the more advanced they become the easier to use they are. It takes considerable skill to wield a sword well, while most anyone can point and shoot a 12 ga. Cell phones dispersed far more rapidly than ham radio, and achieved orders of magnitude broader adoption, because they're so simple infants can use them, and this is because they're so much more advanced technologically than Ham radio.

Do not let what appears to be stagnation discourage you regarding adoption and development of decentralized means of production. It takes careful consideration to note the advances in ease of use of the most recent iterations of 3D printers, like the X1 Carbon, over early models like Prusa M. I (I'm particularly excited about the inclusion of lidar on the X1 Carbon, despite it being only used for first layer location confirmation presently. Lidar is critical to myriad potential uses, such as mapping substrates other than build plates on which prints can be created, or enabling 'fill' to be continued until a given profile is reached, without requiring the user to model and map the entire process, and more than I can easily imagine). Like the launch of Terran 1 in March, 2023, and the Bambu Labs AMS multi-material system, I consider Lidar a key advance that will underlie many more advances yet to be conceived. We don't witness ourselves adoption broadening, because we don't image the population as a whole, but only that on our periphery.

This is why I was very excited to see a market garden level aquaponics setup in a building I did work on for a commercial property owner. Tenants in a 3 bd apartment had 3 2000 gal tanks of tilapia in the garage, and used their waste to feed plants along a sunny window wall and under LED lights in their unit, producing far more then they needed for their personal use. I live in a village, in relatively prosperous conditions, with abundant and extraordinarily fertile soil for gardening, where no one is desperate to grow their own food and forced to adopt aquaponics thereby. The dispersal and adoption of decentralized means of production is happening for myriad reasons particular to early adopters, but constantly, stealthily, and under the radar.

3D printers continue to develop ever more rapidly and to disperse more widely. At some point specific cultural or economic consonance will produce what appears to be a sudden tidal wave of decentralization. That will signify to me that the war is won and is beginning to end. Most people will only then realize there is a war ongoing.

We aren't there yet, but we are getting there.

Thanks!
