September 07, 2019Here’s a riddle for you: What’s more amazing: Technology? Or what can be made with technology? Apply that riddle to any number of topics: medicine, the internet, nuclear armament, or engineering, and you’re in for an afternoon of philosophical pondering. But, as far as 3D printing is concerned, there’s a very clear answer to the riddle. While 3D printing technology is amazing, the things that have been created using 3D printing are far more incredible. Let’s discuss the 10 strangest things that have been 3D-printed. But first, let’s briefly review what has been going on in the 3D printing world.

If you’re a PC gamer, then at some point you’ve probably been saddled with a graphics card that’s a little too scrawny for your favorite games. Maybe you thought your newest game would have all the sweeping grandeur and spectacular detail of a Thomas Cole painting.

August 28, 2019If you’re a PC gamer, then at some point you’ve probably been saddled with a graphics card that’s a little too scrawny for your favorite games. Maybe you thought your newest game would have all the sweeping grandeur and spectacular detail of a Thomas Cole painting. Instead, it looks like 8-bit Super Mario Bros. Those blocky, pixelated edges you see in your PC games are commonly referred to as “jaggies.” Most of the time, you can eliminate jaggies by boosting your screen resolution. But that’s not possible for all gamers. If you have an older GPU or if your GPU isn’t built for gaming, you might not be able to reach higher resolutions without suffering serious slowdown on your game.

August 27, 2019Take a moment to really think about all the digital photos that you want to keep. Most of your pictures are probably saved on your cell phone, because cell phones are our most frequently used cameras these days. If you’re a photographer, you no doubt have lots of photos saved on your digital camera, too. And let’s not forget about the photos we receive from other people - we save the pictures that our friends text us, or maybe we download the image that we’re tagged in on social media. That’s a whole lot of images to keep track of. What’s worse is that the images are probably not all in one place. Most people have their photos scattered across many different devices, social media profiles, and cloud storage accounts. That makes it difficult to find an individual photo when you really need it, and it also increases the likelihood that some of your photos may go missing or accidentally get deleted.

Another influential title hit shelves that year: Crysis. Crysis is a first-person shooter where the player controls a nanosuit-wearing soldier who’s running and gunning through a mysterious island. Most gamers can’t recall the exact story, but they certainly remember the graphics.

You decide to bring your laptop with you because it’ll be nice to stream movies, get some work done, or play a PC game in your downtime. A laptop can help you feel at home when you’re away from home. Oops! When you’re unpacking in your hotel room, you realize that you’ve forgotten to pack your laptop charger (or worse yet, you accidentally leave it in the airport power outlet). Your laptop only has a 10% charge left, so it looks like you’re going to have to do without it on this trip. That essential email to the boss will have to wait.
