This one is a nice drag-and-drop &#8220;combiner&#8221; thing that looks like it&#8217;s using some LLM to make combinations of things. It&#8217;s kinda fun to try and get something specific out of it, like, say, pizza.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A nice weird headline, &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/newatlas.com\/biology\/cell-phone-vibrator-tumor-creation\/\">Using a cell-phone vibrator, team builds a $7 tumor-creation device<\/a>.&#8221; It&#8217;s actually nice and practical, helping researchers grow tumor spheroids for lab research. Just don&#8217;t share this one with the conspiracy theorists, they might take this one in a weird way.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Some might remember the CNC-empowered breakfast that was PancakeBot, which printed out pancakes at Maker Faires. What I didn&#8217;t know (and learned from Makezine) is that <a href=\"https:\/\/makezine.com\/article\/maker-news\/maker-faire\/papas-gonna-build-you-a-pancakebot\/\">it was patented, licensed, and sold at the now-defunct Bed Bath &amp; Beyond<\/a>. You can actually <a href=\"https:\/\/pancakebot.com\/collections\/all\">still buy them from the PancakeBot website<\/a>, though I&#8217;d kind of like to make a dispenser for an MPCNC. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An occasional drop of links.
