  So? If I’m paying for a thing, I’ll sooner pay for a thing that doesn’t have ads than one that does.

  When that fails, there’s always the high seas.

      I love the DIY crowd, I don’t really need most of these sort of things myself (yet), but it’s important that they exist, and that people do these things, to prove it can be done and to develop and maintain the knowledge of how it can be done.

      In an ideal world, we shouldn’t have to be independently reverse engineering and reinventing our own tools and appliances and all this would just have to be done once and then shared to become widespread human knowledge. But instead it is “intellectual property” and commercialized and value engineered into maliciously anti-human exploitation devices. Apparently the world we live in is pretty far from ideal.
