      lol

      I wish the FCC would lighten up the amateur radio rules tho. Cool stuff like Meshtastic is happening outside of licenced bands and is taking off

          Or we could actually make some stuff in the US/EU for a change. I know it takes time but it’s probably for the best in the long run

            Tell me you don’t know how the global economy works without telling me you don’t know how the global economy works.

              Tell me you dont know how supply lock-in is a tool for geopolitics without telling me you dont know how supply lock-in is a tool for geopolitics.

                Looks like you’re the one confused here. Supply lock-in means what exactly to you?

                This appears to be a term you made up. What is supply lock-in returns no results.

                Perhaps you mean vendor lock-in which is actually what I am talking about and you don’t understand what vendor lock-in means.

                  We as a species make up terms on a daily basis, so I feel the liberty to do the same. Glad it doesnt give any results because it indicates original thought.

                  If large parts of the supply chain consist of suppliers (vendors) on the other side of the earth, one can focus on one vendor lock-in or one by one (for analytical purposes) and optimise for that but often the bigger picture of a complex supply chain is missed.

                  Hence the aggregated lock-in.

                  But to avoid futher confusion maybe supply-chain lock-in is a better term and yields searchs results.
