I wanna know who was saying that 30 years ago, cause I certainly wasn't in that loop and also to rain a pummeling deluge of fists onto their throat for knowing this and not doing anything.

you wouldn't download a hamburger

Kinda gonna have to in the future

I know the billionaire doomsday bunkers have some weird 3D printer that “prints” food, mostly just in the form of a nutritional block but I assume after their luxury MRE’s run out and if they haven’t figured out how to grow or incapable of growing fresh produce then 3D printed food is what they will have to rely on as sustenance, that is of course until we raid their bunkers and acquire this technology for ourselves. After that we can start printing burger we downloaded from a local internet source

What is the 'ink' in that printer? Cause you can't print food out of non food.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

Knowing tech bros, the ink for one burger will be enough food to feed a dozen people.

Can't bullshit a trekkie about a food replicator. I've thought of this thoroughly

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

What’s a trekkie and what’s a food replicator?

a star trek fan and a device in star trek which can produce food from non-food

It's the planet closest to the sun

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I thought earth was closest to the sun and that’s why we can see it

Night time is when the other planets are in the way of the sun

Protein printer? biggus-piggus

Sometimes microbiologists while jury-rig printers to squirt out growth media. I suppose it's like sheet cake printing, but you're hoping for mold.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I literally have never thought about that although I’ve heard it a thousand times. Lol.

Last week a tuna fish sandwich cost 9 dollars. You couldn't pay me 9 dollars to order a tuna sandwich.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

Cheap food isn't allowed to cost this much.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You couldn't pay me 9 dollars to order a tuna sandwich.

if someone is offering to pay you to eat a tuna sandwich on cam, you probably could substitute a vegan alternative.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It would certainly be more respectful.

If your vacation costs $12,500, you are fucking rich as fuck. Most vacations cost people like $500-$2,000. If you’re spending more than that on a vacation you are bougie scum.

A basic car costs $30,000 brand new.

Also there were plenty of people “eating in, not driving, and not going anywhere” 30 years ago. In fact, maybe even more than today per capita.

For your first paragraph you just lack literacy.

Explain your second one so I can tell you how fucking stupid you are in greater detail.

Edit: for posterity, they edited post to add extra paragraphs but any aside from the first can count as paragraph 2. Also fucking weird stealth edit cause it just adds 'basic car' costs and additional ranting about vacation costs. Not really sure what the gain was there.

30k is still a ton in comparison to inflation-adjusted pricing 20 years ago.
