"Oh look at these wonderful Chinese 3D printers, they're legitimately ahead of the Western competition and so much cheaper."
They DDOS the competition, steal intellectual property, violate software licenses, and catch fire.
"Oh look at these wonderful Chinese electric cars, they're legitimately ahead of the Western competition and so much cheaper."
I kept buying from Prusa, and people on reddit told me i was wasting money. I have no regrats.
I own a Prusa, a MK4S. They could stand to get their shit together a bit. I'm currently running two firmware versions behind because the last two years worth has been fucktrash.
In what way are Chinese car companies handicapping American automakers?
I'd also like to know but I wouldn't be surprised if they tried.
Oh give them a minute.
There are plenty of other Chinese/asian printer companies that dont do what Bambu does.
Im not as familiar with vehicles but im currently overseas in a country that has tons of chinese EVs and they dont really seem to be blowing up left and right.
I'll trust them when no one alive remembers when they were a single-party state.
Well that's just blatant sinophobia.
As much as saying "Hey probably stop genociding Palestinians" is antisemitic.
"I don't trust a single one of them or their children or their children's children. Not racist though."
Further reason to never do business with anywhere where nationality equals race. Criticize their government, they play the race card.
So you don't trust Taiwanese, Japanese, German, or Korean products either?
Honestly? No. Nintendo is entirely too litigant, VW cheated on their emissions, and Samsung appliances are utterly shit.
I love my Dolphin Mini and I would never buy enshittified garbage out the factory American car.
I'll gladly take a Chinese car over an American one.
