Hey crue’de’buzz, I think SoCal or Stanford has an open source 3D printer that only costs around 2K. Aside from the fact that you can swap out the printing medium with cake icing, the coolest part is their goal of making the entire printer printable. If one of the parts is about to break, print a new one! If you’re annoyed with all your friends boggarting your printer, print them one. I think they have about 30% of the parts printable already, and they’re currently trying to replace the few metal parts with printable plastic. Now all we have to do is eagerly await the monopolization of the “periodic feed.”

Now all we have to do is eagerly await the monopolization of the “periodic feed.” Austin, Tx. Hey BOL crew, Just responding to the email in episode 1095 about using the twitter peek to stay in contact with your kids. While I love the idea of a device with “lifetime” service and no contracts, I’m not a fan of single purpose devices. However, I can see where this person is coming from as my son is at the age where a simple text device would be handy and I hardly ever use the phone myself when I can avoid it, so why bother with another cellular plan? So I did a little looking around and found a company called Qwert (qwertcorp.com ) that sells very inexpensive text only plans, no contract, and does not require you to buy a device, they mail you a sim card! Considering my (jailbroken) Gen 1 iPhone is getting on in years and I have been contemplating an upgrade for a while, I decided to pass it on to my son with service from Qwert. It works great and he sure appreciates the “extra” features of playing music and games.
