25th for those who didn’t get it.
Despite the name ArduPilot it appears to be based on Raspberry Pi:

The hardware is built on top of this:
https://www.seeedstudio.com/Ochin-Tiny-Carrier-Board-V2-for-Raspberry-Pi-CM4-p-5887.htmlVery impressive project, based on several other open source projects.
It’s amazing how you can develop projects of such sophistication both cheap and fast, exclusively based on opensource. 👍😀Imagine the time and cost it would take, if Ukraine had to build this from the bottom!
If it was an American manufacturer, it would probably be a billion dollar project.Edit PS:
Although this seems well documented, this is probably not a beginner project.
But for a team with some previous knowledge of working with similar things, I bet it’s relatively easy.
4·5 days agoAmazon is an absolute scumbag company, they don’t pay taxes and they shit all over their workers, and fight unions tooth and nail.
I have no idea how people can buy at Amazon, that stands for everything Trump and Musk stands for.
Just fucking stop using Amazon if you value democracy. Pay an extra dollar and buy somewhere else.
They had already moved it, so Munich didn’t have to switch back for that.
But yes I bet it was a factor as in corruption.
Fingers crossed that this will be an indisputable success. 🤞
Allegedly a similar project in Munich went really really well, but was shut down when the right wing came into power.
For some reason the right wing of Munich doesn’t like freedom. 🙄
Freedumb.
Of course my bad. 😋
suffocating at the bottom
I can’t even Imagine living in a society where people claim Empathy is a weakness!
I would really like some of the mentality from the 70’s flower power days back.
Best of luck to you. ❤️
USA has become a sociopathic society.
They claim to love freedom, but regulate to harass every minority there is.
The culture has become sick with sadistic hate.
It was taken over buy something called “Muse group”.
They added telemetry, which is actually illegal in EU, unless you warn about it, and then it can only be used if you are over 18.
I think that also makes it against to GPL license.
Then they pulled back, but later tried to do it partially or something I don’t recall.Clearly Muse Group was a bad fit for a GPL open source project.

Edit PS:
From their homepage:
https://www.audacityteam.org/
I can see that the audacious project remain under Muse Group control. I would look for something else.
Muse group changed the contributor license to take control away from the community, and give it only to themselves.Later, Muse Group ruffled feathers with a new Contributor License Agreement (CLA) for Audacity, which contributors were required to sign if they wanted to continue to work on the project. This new agreement also stipulated that Muse Group must be given unrestricted rights to all contributions.
The ONLY reason to do this, is if you plan to use the code in a non GPL compliant context.
Tenacity
Oh, I thought maintenance of tenacity ended, when the original maintainer/developer got harassed and left.
Has Audacity stopped their shenanigans? Or is it still a thing we should rather avoid?
what would be the purpose to hide it?
To avoid further retaliations from USA that might prevent their progress.
And to not disclose industry secrets.I am probably on the pessimistic side and you maybe on the optimistic
True, I’m an optimist on their behalf, because China has done such impressive progress already, but I also know this is way harder than sending a man to the moon.
I agree 100% about restricting the tech is a huge mistake, and yes physics are indeed the same everywhere.
Hopefully when China figures it out, consumers everywhere will benefit. The Political implications however, is an open question.
I’m quoting from the article.
“masked individuals” entered a university building and caused "property damage
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/05/30/eu-israel-gaza-war/
BRUSSELS — A rare rebuke of Israel by Germany this week underscored Europe’s growing willingness to pressure the Netanyahu government over its siege and bombardment of the Gaza Strip, which is testing the tolerance of some of Israel’s staunchest allies.

Germany’s tone with Israel is getting harsher
Obviously it’s not illegal to criticize Israel.
I admit that is very bad, but I doubt you can’t criticize Israels war crimes and oppression and illegal settlements in Gaza.
AFAIK Canon has a process (nano imprint) that competes with EUV too, maybe not as advanced as ASML.
When I say China will have a competitive EUV system within 5 years, I don’t mean competitive in how advanced it is compared to the best ASML has to offer like the new NA process TSMC hasn’t even decided to buy yet.
But an EUV that allows a production process that will be competitive down to just below 2nm. Meaning competitive with the EUV process TSMC is currently using.
Depending on how much China is investing in this, they could be working on different processes in parallel.
Obviously anything as hard as this with a 5 year time span is very uncertain, we recently saw how bad things went for Intel with their 10nm process, being both multiple years delayed, and on top of that pretty bad when they finally announced it was ready.As I stated next year would be very fast, but in reality we don’t know how close they are. Your claim that they would advertise it is speculation. What would be the purpose of that?
China is already competitive in 8 out of 10 key industries, and since China is prevented from even using western parts for chip making or even just buying the chips, they are pulling ressources to catch up. China will do this because they have massive talent mass and ressources, and because they have to.
I’m pretty sure this article is one big lie,
the school soon faced political pressure from Israeli ambassador Ron Prosor
This sounds like complete bullshit, the Israeli ambassador has zero power over a school, and outside interference would be regarded as intolerable.
and Berlin’s conservative mayor Kai Wegner, who demanded that its leadership “cancel the event
This does not sound right at all, this would be a major attack on freedom of speech, which is protected in Germany not only by German law but also by EU requirement to observe human rights.
The university then did call off the talk, vaguely citing “security concerns.”
There is no way a school would just give in to such obviously illegal pressure. If true this would be a huge scandal in Germany.
Yet many people here seem to swallow the story with zero critical thinking. 🙄
