Well, There is a range of options in my opinion. They range from immediate to long term futur. They range from achievable alone to mass mobilization.

• Reading how peoples sustained themselves during ww1 et ww2 ( start a garden, adopt chicken) but it does take more time and cost reduction is not immediate

• Having a library of thing is a way to help community project like a community garden to do the trick

• work in a cooperative, everyone is owning the workplace and having equal pay. It is not that we don’t produce enough, it is that capitalism is wastefull, the boss of your boss make 20 times what you do, is he 20 more productive that you?

• Help friends and family, they often have things in surplus, than can reduce waste and give away things for free as they exchange it

• Ask for help, you are not the only one struggling, like, we all are, i mean wtf. We all are struggling, we are not angry enough. You will be surprised what peoples are willing to do to help a stranger.

• you are struggling against a system that is quite happy to fine with you struggling, you know what will offer better pay and conditions? Join the army! You can die and torture yourself forever defending a system that put you in such a conditions in the first place.

• mobilize for political change, be creative! As long as you are 75% in accord with a movement, join it but do not compromise if the output is against the right of other people (except power structure like state, richs, or obviously privilegied people) lets be more equals !

Thanks a lot ! I learned so much things. Thanks for the precise references.

It is a solution but i am not sure the supply will last. It can only dwindle.

Your arguments are sounds and valids. I have another solution to a problem, thanks again !

Thanks ;) I learned something!

I do understand your passion and i respect your disappointment.

While i understand the explicit implications of cc-by-nc-sa, (attribution, non-commercial,share alike) i fail to understand the implicits implications. Could i trouble you to explain it ?

Well you are right ! Still i see it as a massive positive win in this particular sector, but sure, lets see what happen and be greedy with licensing! May the next one/release/update be more open.

I thank you a lot

They do have a survey that includes the kit question.

From this update : https://www.crowdsupply.com/open-tools/openprinter/updates/on-the-road-to-launch

depend on the type of work or project you want to do multiples options exist. But i believe no project are science specific oriented so you will have to describe your search term in more mundane terms.

i could recommend you open flexure. An open source 3d printable microscope. https://openflexure.org/

The YouTube channel “the thought emporium” is open source friendly and very DIY, shoot them an email. (they automated pipeting work)

You can look for local hackerspace. Some folk there are stupidly creative and knowledgable.

I know multiples robots arm project exist but they assume you got some 3D printer. refer yourself to some hackerspace/makerspace

If you have any luck, or found any goldmine tell us !!!
