For the last few weeks there has been a lot of talk and coordinated maneuvering by world governments
and private companies to compartmentalize sensor/block web sites. I do worry how long before sites like
Linux, Voron, LinuxCNC, Github, and the like get blocked. ( Won't somebody Please think of the children )
The reason this is relevant is because of how many software providers distribute there software via
downloads from the Web instead of from physical media. Even Raspberry Pi pretty much encourages
everyone to use the online Pi imager tool.
So my question is, Has anyone made a full image for Voron 2.4 with- Klipper, Mainsail, Moonraker,
KlipperScreen and so on?
I know at least Linux sells physical media for most of the main distros so at least there's that.
A lot of what's been going on wreaks of Prohibition 2.0. It also shows that since big companies can't
seem to offer anything of value anymore so they are pivoting to pay extorsion schemes. Sure you can
buy the physical device but you must pay a monthly fee for it to operate. Or pay even more and they
will add something extra. Oh and it also has to be connected to the internet at all times to make sure
it is being used properly. You know for Safety and Security reasons.
I know this has been a bit of a rant. That said stock up / Back up as much software as you can. It's
going to get worse out there.
