I’d love to know how they expect printer manufacturers to do this, given all they do is read gcode. Do the legislation makers even know what a slicer is?

I went to a CA committee hearing (and I got to meet Louis Rossmann in the process) and I guarantee you the people supporting this bill and the committee voting on it generally have no idea what the fuck they're talking about.

Serious question: why do they feel like they are qualified to make decisions on it then? Like if I was in that position, I would defer to an expert committee or professional association.

[–] thanksforreading@lemmy.ml 17 points 2 days ago

What happens is they do defer to the expert. The expert is a plant by which ever lobbiest chose to sponsor the bill. I'm had correspondences with my government about fields I am intimately familiar with and their arguments about technical feasibility were given to them by their Big4 "expert". The problem is I know the field well enough to understand their expert is simply giving the opinion they were paid to give and the technical feasibility of the proposals take a back seat to the political desire of the people pushing the proposal.

Someone's "lobbying" them to make this decision.

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Also Michael Blomberg has spent over $50M to push for this bill to pass.

[–] Whitebrow@lemmy.world 33 points 3 days ago

Of course they know what a slicer is. Most of these people existed long before pre-cut loaves were sold at the stores.

If it ever take forms, it will be absolutely unenforceable with how many devices currently operates. Aside from a ban on open hardware (good luck with that), nothing will happen.

Unfortunately, being technically impossible to enforce is of little consequence. It just becomes a convenient law to pull out if they want to hammer you down and you happen to have a 3D printer that don't have this built-in.
