The answer is no on the immediate timeframe because current market prices already include Chinese manufacturing capacity. It will take years to build the factories that can bring prices down.

Not familiar with exactly what you are talking about but Amazon sells universal Dknobs for $8. You put whatever size you need into the knob.

What kind of scavenged screen? Laptops? Because non-laptop small lcds are an undocumented mess. You'd do better to buy screens that work with esp32s.

Teflon will eventually flake off even if babied. The problem is thermal stress between the aluminum and Teflon. Repeated heating and cooling will eventually cause it to fail.

3d printing. Custom parts for the house. Replacement plastic bits that broke or got lost. Custom toys for gifts.

The US has both:

The Chinese Social Credit score is where your Facebook and other social media are scoured by HR before you are hired. But if you are rich, your Facebook posts don't matter because your Dad made you an executive the company.

A Credit Score is pure capitalism. You can be a racist asshole and get the best deal from banks because you have money.

China is no different with their Princeling "Fuerdai".

All corporations in the US are built on stolen native American land. The US is currently run by a fascist pedophile.

No one should support solari's maker space because it supports a fascist pedophile and their maker space is literally on stolen land.

There are Israelis who don't support the genocide. If that company is one of those, it would be important to support them.

"Emmitsburg Mayor Frank Davis voted for Donald Trump in hopes he would cut federal spending. Now Davis hopes those cuts don't include the permanent cancellation of classes at the National Fire Academy, which is part of the town's identity and helps drive its economy. Davis is also a chief at Emmitsburg's firehouse, known as the Vigilant Hose Company."

Trump killed the Fema training academy. It's not coming back.
