Could this be your next printer?

[GAC05]

I'm thinking not only could you print moving, talking, bioluminescent signs - you could print your own specialized workforce. Hands designed for weeding small text, 10-16 foot tall installers, a shapeless blob to answer the phone, run the printer & chase customers out of the shop (ok, this last one kind of sounds like me, but think of the possibilities).

The ink looks expensive

Pretty sure some of the vendors here are already working on 3rd party ink, made from the west coast homeless population to keep the cost down.

I prefer the east coast ink, seems to flow better.

I thought this whole east coast vs west coast flow issue was settled when Tupac Shakur & Notorious B.I.G. gangs took both leaders out.

I've watched a few of these clips on the tech and can't help but feel a little disturbed by this. I can see the enormous implications perfecting this will bring to medical science. Saving countless lives but what if it is used for evil? The nazis might reprint Hitler or even worse, if they have enough bio-toner, they could make a dozen or more full-color copies of Hillary.
I don't think they will ever be able to reprint Trump - even with the most advanced science no human-made printer will be able to hit that shade of orange.
Scary stuff.

BioConvergence, going to start using that word and use hand gestures of my hands and fingers coming together.

I can visualize the sign now " Banners - Yard Signs - Kidneys & Livers"
I'll sign on when Fellers has stock - oh ya' throw in a roll of black vinyl... too - what?? out of stock on black vinyl?

Well if we're gonna get all serious, I often wonder what wars will be in 50 years. A bunch of robots fighting each other? Like some sort of massive battlebots competition. Without real people fighting each other, isn't it more like advanced vandalism than war? I say, bring back the muskets and bayonets like the good ole days where people had to have real talent, no computer controlled horseshit.
