@wolfie @Anthiese @brother @toast What Alex described in modded Minecraft is Star Trek level tech, but if you define it as “Most people in most situations can have most everything they want/need with relative ease”, I would argue the west is already there and I don't see why 3D printers are needed for that.

@wolfie @Anthiese @brother @toast How though? Video games don't follow laws of physics.

3D printing is cool, but you still need the material to be premade for the printing. What 3D printing allows is easier prototyping and easier low volume runs. Which make no sense for stuff like chairs and desks which literally everyone needs thus they are not a low volume run. It's also probably easier just to build the desk by hand.
Energy is already pretty cheap, but even if we used 100% renewable, you still need to build the solar panels, wind turbines etc.
What you are describing is just moving manufacturing to a different place and possibly making it less efficient.

@wolfie @Anthiese @brother @toast Basically only possible in a video game

@LukeAlmighty Looks pretty nice
