3D Printer Prints Itself

Darwin 1.03D Printer that prints itself due out Real Soon Now

Also, it’s open-license. If you build one and use it to build another one, you can give the other one away without any license/patent obligation.

I’ll take two. Just because.

Also, I’m adapting mine to make that hideous vibrating screech the high-speed dot-matrix printers made back in 1983, because It Must.

*sigh*

That’s what we get for letting Canadians play with fissionables—and letting non-English-speaking morons with no spellchecker try to hoax people in order to spread their little virii.

Chrissakes. I should offer to apply a coat of polish to these to make them somewhat believable for a percent of the take.

Two out of ten for “nucklear”. The rest? No points at all.

Australia proposes toad cull

2

Cane toad!These are the good kind. The licking kind. The kind with the awesome documentary I’ve watched about ten times now and have a permanent copy of on my laptop. Ten out of ten.

I recommend a five iron, or maybe a three wood. You don’t want a lot of range, ‘cuz it’ll hook or slice like a mo-fo.

Also you don’t want a lot of splatter.

Whatever. Please PLEASE _PLEASE_ don’t talk to be about “the sanctity and dignity of human life” in a world where “Jackass” is a blockbuster movie, where more than half a trillion dollars is spent killing hundreds of thousand of people we’ve never met much less brought to trial, where the chief weapon of bringing rogue countries into compliance is the trade embargo—a neutron-bomb-like weapon guaranteed to knock down, starve, and kill the poorest of the poor while leaving the wealthy pricks who are the original problem standing, where lives by the millions are sneezed away piece-by-piece by bone-headed amateur code in legislatures across the planet. Your hypocrisy is deafening.

See, it’s obvious to me that if we had better control over what lives we brought into being (through the reproductive sciences) and what lives we allowed to continue when threatened (through medical and biological sciences), we wouldn’t have to waste so much money and resources on destroying HUGE SWATHS OF HUMANITY in our pitiful (yet sanctioned by GOD and the GOVERNMENTS OF ALL THE GOOD NATIONS) methods of—theoretically—trying to make the world a better place for us all. And by “all” I mean rich white folk and their closest friends, or at least those of us who can pass as such.

Carry on. Back to your April Fools Day normality.

Some conjectures about the mechanism of poltergeist phenomenon.

I kinda lost it somewhere around the “sexual neurons” phrase, but I did a pretty good job at keeping a straight face until then.

I give this one an eight out of ten, but the classic Australopithecus spiff-arino spoof is still my all-time favorite.
