Yeah I know, it's already in the development/testing phase, but how about extending the concept. The self-drinking beer. Same benefit as the self-driving car. Expand Neither of those things will ever become obsolete. People like drinking and driving too much.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Self-replicating nanoscale machines. What's the big deal about this? Imagine a molecule sized machine that can not only recreate itself but can create anything you like by rearranging atoms and molecules. Suddenly, nothing is expensive or rare.

I watched a lot of The Jetsons as a kid. ?♀️ Expand I've had the Jetsons theme song in my head for a solid week. It's not an all day thing, but at some point of the day, I'll get a random, "Jane ... his wife ..." in my head, or "His boy, Elroy ..." I actually like the song, as far as theme songs go, so it's not bothering me .... yet. 1

Expand But your propane (or natural gas) could be cheaper, depending on how it runs. The electric is expensive to install and expensive to use. The liquid requires some way of heating it up when needed. Your propane would only be fed when needed. The other cheaper option is flame thrower.
Mike in Horseheads Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 On 11/1/2019 at 2:33 AM, frostbitmic said: A propane driveway ... It'll look kind of like your backyard grill grate. You turn the propane on from inside your house, then press an igniter button and in 10 minutes no more snow in your driveway. You can also use it to cook entire sides of beef or entire bambi's. Expand A friends father had that built into their new house in the 70's. A heated driveway that melted the snow. Then it turned to ice soon as the heat was turned off

Expand As a kid in northeast Buffalo, I noticed the house on the northwest corner of Huntley and Eldon had this. Electric heating lines laid in the driveway cement. I’m in my sixties, so it’s not new. * I’m waiting for the day they make a doorbell that sounds like the one at the Jetsons. ? Edited November 1, 2019 by Ridgewaycynic2013
