    Both.

    3D printing will eventually be great, but it's got a long ways to go before it's more than a toy for bored hobbyists

    Hence the smileys in that and my original post.

    Once costs are under control (which I'm sure won't happen for a good long time), this will be able to replace a lot of Manufacturing jobs.

    Reminded of the stupid MP/RIAA ads "You wouldn't download a car, would you?"
    Once the tech and the cost savings are there, hell yes I would. Middlemen just drive up the cost.

    Once they make it A) Affordable, B) the printed materials "sturdier", there will be a reason for the hype.

    Did the tests present each participant with both black and white characters to help? Or only one?

    Some people (especially if they are having to exit because of danger to their lives) wouldn't stop to help anyone.

  14. Since you can't read, here's part of the post I was responding to:

    "Exactly. It's better to have a government in charge where citizens have at least some form of control, than a private corporation who has absolutely no morals and who cannot be controlled. (Except by the previously mentioned government.) All these anti-government loons have obviously never lived somewhere where there was no government, or their story would change. I think in reality it is mostly just people who have a mental condition where they hate power, any power, whoever has power they will rail against."

    Citizens have the illusion of control over the government
