  • For those that don’t know what any of that means (like me 5 minutes ago):

    Arbitration is an alternative to going to court. Instead of suing each other in front of a judge, both parties agree to have a neutral third party (an arbitrator) settle disputes privately. It’s usually faster and cheaper than traditional litigation.

    The class action waiver means you give up the right to join with other users in a class action lawsuit against Zed. So if many users had the same grievance, they couldn’t band together, each person would have to resolve their dispute individually.


    Why tf are they afraid of being sued or class actioned against?

    I haven’t really used zed much and I’ll delete my account and uninstall, just to show them that this sucks.











  • Get one of those learning kits that come with most of SBC/MCUs (like raspberry pi or ESP32) which have a lot of random stuff (like LEDs, motors etc.) that you can hook up to the pins and write C programs to control them. Learn the different protocols that are used to talk to other devices, like i2c, uart, spi etc. and then buy some hardware that you can talk to via this protocol. Like a sensor, a gps module or an IMU or EEPROM.

    It’s conceptually pretty similar to how computers and device drivers do it. There is some communication protocol and you can write or read some values over it to use any device. It’s just way easier to start small and build up experience from there.


  • afaik you just listed features that the printer I mentioned (or if I am wrong, other similar printers) supports

    it’s my bad for not mentioning all possible workflows, I was just a bit lazy and thinking of my personal documents only, which do not work well with further smart automation, because my batches are highly irregular. So the more manual approach is the best for me currently. Maybe possible with some future AI integration.
