She makes $1,000s on Etsy from thrift-store junk she never even buys. She doesn't buy the item. She photographs it. A weird vintage bust, a gas mask, something nobody else is selling she snaps it on the shelf and walks out. AI turns the photo into a 3D model. The printer runs overnight. The listing is up by morning. She never learned to 3D model. The AI did that part. The edge isn't the printer. Everyone has a printer. The edge is that thrift stores are full of one-of-one shapes nobody has digitized yet and she's the one photographing them. The whole supply chain: a phone, a $200 printer, and a shelf she doesn't pay for.

🚨 “WE GOT 3D CHICKEN!” WOMAN FILMS STORE-BOUGHT "PRINTED" MEAT - AND PEOPLE THINK THE FDA IS HIDING SOMETHING A woman just posted one of the most disturbing food videos of the year - and now the people are asking whether we’re eating real poultry or lab-layered Franken-meat. She grabs a raw drumstick… and an entire plastic-looking layer peels off like a sheet of synthetic film. Then it gets worse: • Bubbles under the surface • A gooey, slime-like texture • She cuts into the joint and the inside looks perfectly molded, like it came out of a printer - not a chicken. Layers that look like 3D-printed material - not like actual meat. Her reactions say everything: “We got the 3D chicken!” “What IS that?” “Why is it gooey??” “Is that even skin??” Are we already seeing 3D-engineered meat slipping into the food supply… or is this just another “don’t worry about it” moment the FDA will never explain?

FREE and open-source Bitcoin mining hardware: Don’t throw away or sell your S19j, S19k, or S19 Pro units just yet, developing something tailored for our Bitcoin-mining HeatHarvest greenhouse, semi-waterproof, moisture-resistant, and packed with some intriguing extras. Securing the hashboard with lock mechanisms was a priority, along with a tough and durable 3d printable frame that ties cleanly into other materials after printing. Working in mounts for alternative thermal-management modules, currently prototyping. Beyond the core functions, kept the pleb #Bitcoin miner in mind with this design, many pleb miners have small print area 3D printers, parts are kept within ranges to fit smaller printer beds. This is Prototype 1, the basic concept. Logged a dozen mod notes, now it’s back to CAD and reprints. Stay tuned, this is shaping up to be perfect for solo plebs mining at home and DIY Bitcoin heat capture projects.

🚨 YOU’RE EATING 3D PRINTED MEAT AND DON’T EVEN KNOW IT A viral TikTok is blowing up after a creator shows off a 3D printed “steak” from Redefine Meat and the footage is freaking people out. He holds it up and says: “It’s meaty and fibrous just like real meat… but 100% vegan.” “It looks meaty… it smells meaty… it’s got layers of protein and fat just like meat.” “I’m not gonna lie - it smells disgusting.” “Does it taste like meat? That is VERY, VERY meaty.” He loads it into tacos, takes a bite, and says it has the same umami punch you get from real meat. All while the internet is STILL reacting to the Campbell’s executive caught on hot mic claiming: “There’s bio-engineered meat in the soup!” “I don’t wanna eat a fu*king piece of chicken that came from a fu*king 3D printer!” Now people are connecting dots they never expected to connect. Because if 3D printed meat already looks, smells, and tastes like meat…how much of this stuff is already in the food supply without anyone realizing it? Does this make you curious…or straight-up terrified about what we’re REALLY eating?

🚨🇷🇺WEST IN RAGE: Russia's 3D printing Breakthrough Goes Global Rosatom (Russia's state nuclear corporation) shipped an industrial 3D printer to India — its first export to a far-abroad market. The RusBeam 2800, an electron-beam printer for large metal parts, now produces aerospace components. Russian additive manufacturing is outgrowing import substitution and starting to compete globally. Rostec (Russia's state industrial conglomerate) and Rosatom created the country's first certified reference sample of metal powder — titanium alloy PT-3V. Labs can now calibrate powder characteristics against a single standard: fewer defects, faster certification, a common quality language. It's no coincidence that Rosatom and Rostec lead this push. Nuclear reactors and jet engines demand absolute precision — exactly why the PT-3V reference sample matters. It gives every lab a single benchmark to check powders against, ensuring the hundredth printed part matches the first. Without it, 3D printing stays guesswork. With it, the technology becomes a trusted industrial process. Russian aviation has crossed that threshold: Rostec uses 3D-printed parts in PD-14 and PD-8 engines and has certified the first additively manufactured hot-section component for a serial aircraft engine — a combustor swirler inside the PD-14 powering the MC-21. These announcements are two sides of the same coin. Russia is assembling a complete chain: equipment, materials, software, standards, certification. After 2022, severed supply chains turned 3D printing from a trend into industrial survival. When a critical imported part is unavailable, printing it domestically shifts from convenience to necessity. The market hit 22.3 billion rubles in 2025. Hot-section parts face extreme temperatures and vibration, so certification means the technology has passed its toughest exam. Russia has moved beyond printing samples to building a full-fledged industry — from certified powder to exported machines for the most demanding sectors. Do you think the U.S. can really compete with Russia in this field?

🚨 Civilian aircraft are now MASSIVELY vulnerable. Anyone can build a functional MANPADS missile launcher for under $100 full designs, 3D-print files, firmware, and AI targeting all open-sourced on GitHub right now. Shoulder-fired. Guided rocket. Built to lock onto and take down planes. What used to require nation-state factories, military supply chains, and millions in R&D… now anyone with a garage and a printer can make it. Our commercial airliners have zero defense against this new reality. The democratization of weapons just turned every flight into a potential target. The launcher and rocket use ESP32 microcontrollers along with sensors including an MPU6050 IMU, NEO-6M GPS, QMC5883L compass, and BMP180 barometric sensor. Flight stabilization is handled through a proportional-derivative control loop that adjusts canard control surfaces during flight. The mechanical structure was designed in Fusion 360 and analyzed in OpenRocket to evaluate aerodynamic stability. Most structural components were produced using consumer-grade 3D printing and assembled with threaded inserts, machine screws, and custom springs. Total build cost: approximately $96. $6 Esp32 (2) $17 MG996r Servos (4) $3 SG90 Servos (2) $4 Switches (4) $15 ABS pipe (1) $20 Urgenex 1100mAh Battery (2) $1 BMP180 (1) $1 MPU6050 (1) $5 NEO-6M (1) $2 QMC5883l (1) $1 Active Buzzer(1) $17 PLA Plastic (1.5 kg) $2 PVC Pipe (9 in) $2 Rocket Propellant (170g) Wires / Capacitors / etc Negligible Future development explores integration with distributed camera-node tracking networks capable of generating real-time XYZ coordinates of airborne objects.

Shane Wighton, from the YouTube channel Stuff Made Here, used 3D-printed tooling to form a sheet metal component as part of a concept validation process. Metal manufacturing is essential for all areas of the economy. Because of their strength, stiffness, and long-term durability, metal components are used in applications from appliances to construction parts and car body panels. Traditional metal manufacturing techniques include forming, casting, molding, joining, and machining. Sheet metal forming involves various processes where force is applied to a piece of sheet metal to plastically deform the material into the desired shape, modifying its geometry rather than removing any material. Sheet metals can be bent or stretched into a variety of complex shapes, permitting the creation of complex structures with great strength and a minimum amount of material. Sheet metal forming is the most cost-effective forming procedure today for manufacturing parts in large quantities. It can be highly automated in factories or, at the other end of the spectrum, manually operated in metal workshops for small series parts. It is a versatile, consistent, and high-quality procedure to create accurate metal parts with limited material waste. From metal cans to protective housing for hardware, parts created by sheet metal forming are found everywhere in our daily lives. In this article, learn the basics of sheet metals, the various sheet metal forming processes, and how to reduce the cost of sheet metal forming with rapid tooling and 3D printed dies. For a detailed overview and the step-by-step method, watch our webinar or download our white paper: Research conducted by Shane Wighton.

Gavin Baker on SpaceX's booming datacenter business: $15B from Anthropic is just the beginning @jason: “ Gavin, your take on the S-1, and I think specifically Elon Musk Web Services?” Gavin Baker: “$15 billion (from Anthropic), that means (SpaceX’s) AI business is going to quadruple. It has already effectively quadrupled. Their first data center was 122 days. For the second one, it took them 91 days. The third one was, I think, 66 days. They build data centers dramatically faster than anyone else at a lower cost. And now that you have a clear offtake partner, and I would expect ‘partner’ to become ‘partners,’ there is no reason they can't start stamping these data centers out really fast. And having watched Jensen for a long time, it is important to Jensen that his GPUs be used. And so GPUs will be allocated to who can plug them in, turn them on, and start converting electrons into tokens. And so I think this business can grow dramatically faster than maybe what anyone could have contemplated three months ago. But $15 billion from Anthropic is extraordinary.”

Everyone talks about how Web3 will change the world. But the truth is: if you can’t make it work with the systems that already run the world TODAY, it doesn’t matter. Sometimes it feels like we "own" the Multiversᕽ blockchain. Not because we control it, but because every time we start researching a new module or flow, a new chain upgrade lands at the right moment, unlocking the exact functionality we need to build that idea. At Vero, we believe blockchain should stay invisible to the user. The real magic happens when it works silently in the background, even with old Web2 hardware, the kind that’s still required by law. In Romania, for example, every onsite sale needs a fiscal receipt. No exceptions. At the start of the year, we built a way for each point of sale to issue blockchain-connected fiscal receipts. But that meant one printer per station: expensive, inefficient, hard to scale. Now, after months of working, we’ve fixed that. Multiple POS stations, all connected to Web3, can now print on a single fiscal printer. Each receipt includes a unique station ID, a transaction hash, and is fully compliant with tax regulations. And we didn't stop there. We also built a full merchant module that handles both card and cash payments. VeroPay is now running as a SaaS infrastructure for any merchant, in any industry. With the latest MultiversX chain upgrades, this module is 100% live on mainnet. This is what we focus on at VeroPay: Not building DeFi tools that maybe 1% of Web3 users will ever try, but making sure blockchain works today, with the infrastructure that 99% of businesses already use. Maybe in 5 to 10 years everything will be on-chain, and that future is coming. But until then, the winning move is connecting invisible Web3 to the regulated Web2 systems already in place. That’s where real adoption begins. PS: Next up, we're working on a flow to export reports from explorer directly into major bookkeeping software format 👀

The man hired to protect $24 MILLION in McDonald's prize money stole all of it. For 12 years every major winner of McDonald's Monopoly was a fraud. – Jerome Jacobson was a former cop from Florida. His job was to escort the winning Monopoly game pieces from the printer to the restaurants. – He touched them. – The first piece he stole he gave to his stepbrother. His stepbrother won. Nobody questioned it. – By 1995 he had built a network of 50 people who paid him cash for guaranteed winning pieces. – His buyers included a Colombian drug trafficker, a strip club owner, a convicted felon, and members of the Colombo crime family. – Jacobson charged between $12,000 and $50,000 per piece. – He would duck into airport bathroom stalls during transit, break the tamper-proof seal, pocket the winning pieces, and reseal everything before anyone noticed. – One family claimed three separate $1 million prizes and a Dodge Viper across different states using different names. – The fraud only unravelled because one of his couriers got drunk at a party and started talking. – The FBI pulled the winner list and noticed almost every major prize winner lived within driving distance of Jacobson's home. – They convinced McDonald's to run the contest one final time, wiretapped his phone, then flew to his door posing as a film crew. – He told them exactly how he found the piece. Every word was a lie. Every word was recorded. – More than 50 people were arrested simultaneously across multiple states. – The trial was scheduled to begin on September 10, 2001. – The next day changed everything and one of the biggest fraud cases in American corporate history disappeared from the front pages forever. – Jacobson received 37 months. He was the only person in the entire network who served for more than a year. Every time you peeled a losing game piece off your fries between 1989 and 2001, the winning pieces were already spoken for.

RHP Matt Scott (Stanford Baseball) is one of the premier college arms in this year's Draft. After a solid Freshman season that was split between the bullpen and the rotation, Scott this year anchored the Stanford rotation and collected a career-high 103 strikeouts against 36 walks across 80 innings. Earned a Team USA invite for the second straight summer. Scott has an XL, workhorse frame at 6-foot-7 and 247-pounds with plenty of strength and physicality throughout. Quiet, "checkpoint-like" delivery. Small side step towards 1B side, gathers himself and breaks into the rest of his operation. Attacks from a high-three quarter slot. Low effort, does a nice job of staying connected and in-sync for someone of his stature. FB sits in the 93-96 range, but will routinely touch 97/98. Tons of carry through the zone, averaged 22.5" of IVB last year. At its best when located in the top-1/2 of the zone, which is also where it generates most of its whiffs. Just needs to stay out of the middle. Threw it 62% of the time and generated a pretty impressive miss rate of 26%, though I think it can become even more effective if he's able to hone in on his command of it. 55 pitch right now, eventual 60 if some of the low hanging fruit is cleaned up. Supplements his FB with a mid-to-upper-80s gyro SL. I actually think Scott's feel for the SL is on par, if not better, than his feel for the heater. Effective against both right and lefthanded hitters. True, hard gyro look against LHH. Will flash more two-plane tilt against RHH with some sharpness to it. Another 55 pitch that last year had a 40% miss rate. Scott needs to up the usage on his split-change. Threw it just 6% of the time last year and I think it's his best secondary pitch. Legit weapon against LHH. Averaged nearly 12 MPH off his FB and he does an excellent job of killing spin on it; averaged 866 RPMs last season. Essentially falls off a table as it approaches the plate. Serious tumbling life with a bit of arm side fade. 48% miss across a limited sample in '24, I'd give it a 60. Command and control are both average, if not a tick above. Little-to-no reliever risk. Really like the body and stuff. Projects to be one of the first few college arms off the board this July and is a potential first-rounder.
