Circuits Everywhere
cpk0 writes "ABCNews is reporting on a small, New York based company that is now using and creating a technique of printing circuits directly onto paper with conductive inks. The uses up to this point are somewhat trivial, but the idea is undeniably exciting, and the article outlines some of the future ideas T-Ink Inc. has for this technology." Including electronic candy, oddly enough. Update: 10/27 17:24 GMT by T : Associated Press Technology Editor Frank Bajak points out that this story comes from The Associated Press, which deserves the credit.
Pr0n magazines that moan when you stroke the pictures!
When I am king, you will be first against the wall.
The uses up to this point are somewhat trivial
Trivial? Just wait until you see my bookshelf beowulf!
Remind me not to overclock my paper on analytic processing... especially not if it's funded by AMD!

"Ohhh, fuck, I shreded my computer!"
Yeah, "undeniably exciting" until you buy some wallpaper, and it gets infected with some sort of ad ware that turns your living room into a giant Viagra ad.

For those interested, this company sells this technology for home use for over 15 years already.
:)
but that doesn't stop others from patenting it if they've not done so.
Oh spare me your bombastic pomposity, you knob-knuckled, change
jingling, bulbous lipped, shulgus wearing, furled guinous. Just stop
speaking. Nothing escapes your drooling, gaping maw but gibberish, you
are unintelligible, your sense went swirling away with the rinse
cycle.
You have no business interacting with the conscious, your very
presence gives monkeys headaches. I can't believe that diminuitive,
dried up peach pit that rattles around in the space where a normal
human's brain should be is able to direct your palsied and wasted
limbs to achieve locomotion.
Your very personage is abhorrent to see in daylight. You ears are
blue-veined and freakish horrors of aerodynamics, your forehead has
creases so deep they are a haven for unclassified flora and fauna of
mysterious origin.
Each wheezing breath you take uses oxygen that by rights would be
better utilized by an autistic chimpanzee, and each exhalation fouls
the air with so vile a stench as to bring birds crashing down dead
from defoliated trees.
You wompler, you fraldersnash, you eater of curried laundry lint. You
have the audacity to daily inflict your existence on the innocent
people of this planet. HOW can you stand to be you?
Barney: Circuits! Circuits everywhere!
Moe (?): You gettin' ready for Ciruits Day, Barney?
Barney: Circuits Day? What's Circuits Day?
You could combine this with electronic ink and have a fingerprint verification system built into a piece of paper, and then if it isn't activated by a verified fingerprint, you can't read the contents... the possibilities for this are interesting.
Making people read is interesting. Stopping them from reading, is far from It.
Great, now the design on my T-shirt will be a circuit to connect all the RFID tags in my clothing into one super Grid wearable computer that phones home and tells Ashcroft where I am and what I'm doing at all times. Perfect!
If all this should have a reason, we would be the last to know.
I'm sure that the technology will be replicated and sold to the more unscrupulous people of this planet who could then know how much money you have on you.
Hmmm...he's only got $10, but this guy on the other hand has $150, let's go mug him.
I am NaN
