The abject retardation spirals off infinitely in all directions like the blades of the time knife. I mean, just out of my own twisted head:

• they’re talking about making it illegal to traffic 3D printers that don’t have a “certified gun detection algorithm.” Okay, what part of the 3D printer are you going to control? Hot ends? Control boards? 3D printers don’t have lower receivers. If I were to disassemble my Prusa MK4S back into the ~1000 weird shaped hunks of plastic, metal plates and sticks, wires, circuit boards, nuts and bolts it came in as a kit, and then drive through California, which exact piece am I going to be arrested for carrying?

• I can’t wait until someone Man With The Golden Gun’s one of thes “certified algorithms”, prints stuff that looks like cabinet hooks, musical instruments, a walkie-talkie case, a toy dinosaur, which clip together in a certain way to make a functioning weapon. I’ve never 3D printed a gun before, this might just get me into it.
