Thing-O-Matic is Inexpensive Star Trek Replicator

Chris Burns, Dec 10th 2010 Discuss [1]

Sort of! This is MakerBot Industries' Thing-O-Matic, a home 3D printer for just over a thousand dollars ($1,225.00). Holy crap that's awesome. It's approximately 12 inches by 12 inches by 16 inches and can print 3D objects that you design on your desktop "continuously for hours at a time." This is the same sort of machine we had (probably still have) at my alma mater the Minneapolis College of Art and Design - last I checked they were using it to carve 3D replicas of human heads. All this stuff gets cut down from MakerBot ABS Plastic, which you get 1 pound of to work with for starters when you buy the Thing-O-Matic kit. Make a thousand rabbits! Read The Full Story

eFX to offer Star Trek collectibles for geeks with money to burn

Shane McGlaun, Sep 22nd 2009 Discuss [1]

When I was a kid, I didn’t like reruns of the original Star Trek series. I did enjoy watching the feature films with my dad though and I really liked Star Trek: The Next Generation when it was on the air. Most all of the movies and episodes of the varied series have a tricorder involved in some way. Read The Full Story

Star Trek colognes smell like Vulcan sex

Shane McGlaun, Aug 27th 2009 Discuss [0]

I may lose some of my geek cred for saying this, but I never liked the original Star Trek series. Kirk even bothered me in the films with the original cast that I did watch when I was a kid. I much preferred Piccard and Number One to Kirk and Spock. Read The Full Story

Finally, I can type in Klingon

Shawn Farner, Jan 13th 2009 Discuss [3]

I've used an English language keyboard for years, mainly because it's the only layout I feel comfortable with. Though it's not my preference, I've forced myself to just grit my teeth and make the best of a bad situation. I've long desired a keyboard for a language I'm more comfortable with, and finally, that prayer has been answered. I present to you - the Klingon keyboard. Read The Full Story
