‘Subversive’ Site Aims to Be Pirate Bay of 3D Printing

.

Computer printers aren’t typically linked with the word “subversive,” but that’s the mission of a new site for 3D printer files.

Defcad was announced Tuesday at the South by Southwest Interactive conference. It is designed to give 3D printer enthusiasts access to files that allow them to create objects with their printers — even if those objects are protected by intellectual property laws.

Defcad is backed by Defense Distributed, an Austin, Texas group that recently made headlines by offering 3D printer files to make firearm parts.

Is The Universe A Computer Simulation? Physicist Martin Savage Explains (VIDEO)

Click link below picture

.

Have you ever wondered whether all this–you, your life, the universe–is just a sophisticated computer simulation?

Martin Savage, a physicist at the University of Washington, thinks we can’t discount the idea. In fact, he and two colleagues (Silas Beane and Zohreh Davoudi) published a paper in November 2012 exploring the possibility. I spoke to him about why he thinks we may be the byproduct of some sophisticated computer code.

As we spoke, I noticed he used the word they a lot, when referencing the proposed simulators. I couldn’t help but ask, “who is they?” His answer will blow your mind.

.

An international team of scientists has generated the first laser-like beams of X-rays from a tabletop device.

Most of today’s X-ray lasers require so much power they rely on facilities the size of sports stadiums.

This has prompted efforts to build a cost-effective and reasonably sized X-ray laser.
