Any developments in this direction? It surely would be possible to print a 1950's type of transistor at home, right?
We already print silicon. That's how Intel and AMD make their chips. Print masks and deposit materials through the masks.
Ohhhh. You wanted a home printer for silicon!
Seriously, take a look at the photo of the original transistor. Not exactly a work of beauty there. But the hard part about making more sophisticated chips is in refining and doping the silicon. Granted, you probably don't have ion-deposition equipment in an old closet either, but you can't just build micro-electronics from the kids sandbox.
Actually we print on thin slivers of silicon. You wouldn't accuse a Xerox of printing paper would you?
Well I hope the Nuclear Waste Storage site isn't being designed by the same bozos who built a Fission Reactor over an active fault in a tsunami zone otherwise they'll build it on top of Mt St Helens!
Personally I always preferred calling C functions from machine code it's easy just push your parameters or pointers to your parameters onto the stack and call the address of the function. Then again I initially read the summary and thought he was on about supporting French & German:)

Mir had the same problem on a number of occasions so sounds pretty routine as space station problems go.
Or go for a self driving car Google style.
You mean a self driving car that leaves a trail of bread crumbs for the NSA and stops at every drive-through on the way home?
But I guess other uses are not "newsworthy".
Prints a "Michael Jackson Pacifier!"
That's just Mickey Mouse :)
Wake me up when we can print silicon.

It's not like there was a shortage of them
Digital keyboards and their variants have been around for donkeys years pretty much since touch sensitive displays were originally invented.
and there has been interesting speculation folks with these immunities may be descended from plague survivors from centuries ago.
Aren't we all??
Don't forget that an LFTR can produce virtually no nuclear waste and even consume most of the waste from conventional fission reactors.
If zis is vot zey call gut bacteria I'd hate to see bat bacteria

I thought it was an advertising stunt by Taco Bell :)
Passing in registers is not a standard C parameter passing method you're probably talking to pascal :)

Even in Open Source you can't get away from the census!
Hey I get that every night when I go to bed!! Then she rolls over :D
Awaits update to to electromagnetic counter measures! Seriously I could take this thing out with a microwave.
They named it after one of the most hated characters in cinema history

It's not cold war think More WWII and all those camps with gas chambers
Honestly she doesn't have a leg to stand on
If it had been megalomania they'd have accepted her with open arms!
I was talking about pre 3g back when the only things that had styluses in general were palm pilots and IPaqs and most other phones were bricks
But but I do all my online shopping at http://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en/home.html
This is a very well known thing from more than six years ago.
I blame Fight Club
