No armored vehicle created by an advanced galaxy spanning civilization should ever be capable of being destroyed by logs. There is no way this would even remotely damage a current day tank.

CNC banned? New York law just passed: 3D Printers & CNC machines now require built-in surveillance software to block you from making firearms parts. A separate background-check bill remains pending in committee. New York has passed first-in-the-nation regulations targeting 3D printers (and, per multiple analyses of the bill language, CNC machines) sold in the state. This includes mandatory “blocking technology” (often described as surveillance or censorware-style software) and face-to-face sales requirements that effectively end easy online purchases and shipping. What Was Just Passed (FY 2027 Budget – Signed ~May 27, 2026) Governor Kathy Hochul signed the provisions as part of the enacted FY 2027 state budget (Public Protection and General Government bill, originating in S.9005 /A.10005, Part C) Key elements include: • Mandatory blocking/surveillance technology on 3D printers sold in New York • Every 3D printer must include (or be equipped with) technology/algorithms that scan design files and block attempts to print firearm components ---> examples: software will scan your program to determine if you are making receivers, frames, silencers/suppressors, or machine-gun conversion devices. • The state will maintain or reference a library of prohibited “digital firearm manufacturing code.” • A task force (led by the Division of Criminal Justice Services, with experts in manufacturing, AI, and security) will develop minimum safety standards and regulations. • Broad application to CNC machines (and potentially subtractive manufacturing) ---> Detailed bill analyses (EFF, technical reporting, and maker-community reviews) confirm the language covers **CNC machines** and machines using subtractive manufacturing from digital files. ---> This goes beyond consumer 3D printers to industrial equipment. Official governor announcements emphasize 3D printers, but the enacted provisions are written more broadly. • Face-to-face sales and delivery only: No online sales, no shipping to New York addresses. ---> All transactions must occur in person between buyer and seller. This directly bans convenient online purchases from major retailers or manufacturers. • Criminal penalties for files and manufacturing. • It is now a crime (Class E felony in some formulations) to possess, sell, or distribute digital files/blueprints intended for printing illegal firearms or components (with intent or knowledge elements). • Implementation timeline: The law is effective upon signing for some criminal provisions, but the technical standards and blocking requirements will take time. --> The task force has roughly a year for recommendations, followed by rulemaking. --> Non-compliant sales could face liability once rules are in place. Manufacturers will likely need to create NY-specific compliant models (or stop selling/shipping there).
