Yesss yes! Especially since a lot of this groups buy and then take apart the printers to repurpose!

People are very amazing, and there's such an untapped pool of creativity with things like this. These are the sort of times I was I was more mathematically or scientifically inclined, because I can't really get involved with things like this, unless writing scifi counts as any contribution.

NASA is doing amazing research in building rocket parts, so there should be great spinoff tech

I think this is very exciting! I think I have a very general understanding of what 3D printing is--it's layering, using animation-esque three-dimensional blueprints, something like that. Of course, the stuff commercially available right now is really not available to the masses yet; obviously NASA is developing this stuff and then companies making strides with food printing are marketing to chefs and companies.

I feel like this is what things must have been like when the computer was just beginning to generate interest. Or any technology, really. In the hands of the masses, you discover a lot more uses for something than originally intended and I think that is what would be most exciting, to see what people do when this is something they just have and it's no longer a luxury or anything.

I do this too. I like to take what’s coming so I can decide for myself, and honestly, it’s made me brave, or made me at least feel brave, because it’s become easier to phase out the kinds of warnings technology makes ubiquitous

I think you have put into words the beginning of what for me is the root of it, I think. Though I can rationalize why people want fair warning of what to expect, but I see this as a character flaw, because it's braver to go in with as little outside influence as possible. I think I like taking chances, and finding things to like about new things, and the only time I am reliant on recommendations for new things might be with food, because I am particular with what I put in my body. But to take things as they come, that is brave, and it says a lot about you as a person.
