Though I can't help but feel it won't be long before something with this technology goes too far or some seriously heavy rules get put in place to stop it making a real difference to the world.

my god I had the exact same thought when I read the title for this thread lol.

Same here. Man, when 3D printers start making 3D printers, that's where I start building the bunker.
There's the RepRap [http://reprap.org/wiki/Main_Page], a 3D printer made of plastic parts that can print out more RepRaps. Does that count?
FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

Now, where did I put those ten-inch-thick steel plates...

Silly lacktheknack, that just gives them more matter to use to assemble more replicators.

They did self replicating printing machines years ago. Food is apparently harder.

Nope! They're made out of plastic!

Once we have steel replicators, that's when I pull out the Necronomicon.

Sure, they're not that advanced yet because they're basically version 1.0 .

But guys, we have replicators. From star trek. This is amazing.
sorry to be a buzz kill, but it really isn't, it's a cool food printer sure but just that isn't a replicator

it's cool but it doesn't have.. well any of the features a replicator does it can't recycle it can't make anything instantly it can't make different foods, it can't make objects other than food
and it can't turn energy into matter, and.. that's really the main issue! the point of treklore replicators was energy = anything.

if a food printer is a replicator, then well vending machines have been doing the same for generations really.
the food exists somewhere and it gets piped to you 'by some means'

3D printers are not replicators like in star trek .Even molecular assembler the use of nanotechnology to move or rearrange atoms are closer to replicators BUT still not replicators.

For there to be true replicators one must turn energy into mass and no where are engineers at that point any time soon.Even molecular assembler are probably 50 to 100 years out.

You and me both man, i was already dusting off the old *KILL IT WITH FIREEE* picture.
that was my thought as well, i was expecting the grey-flood to sweep in with lego-ized death-robots XD

i'm actually slightly more excited for this... even if its not 'replicators', death-robots or fuck-equivalent-exchange-get-whatever-i-want machines to abuse to my fancy... i will at least hope they are more like Transmetropolitain concept of the 'Makers', Ie: drug-addicted boxes of evil that can make ANYTHING from hardcore drugs to energy weapons with a few 'cracks'... not to mention getting passed the pissed cyber-drug-addicted AIs...

either way, hooray for the future and it 'trying' to advance XD
