I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    “the Bacon Mobius Strip that is not delicious”
    You’re really selling us on this printer bacon.

    • Slartibartfatsdomino

      I was quite concerned that it might be delicious, thus luring me into its vegan kosher ways (‘cuz that’s less then one step removed from halal, and OMG SHARIA!!!), and was thus reassured to learn that it is not delicious.

    True Bacon is neither vegan, nor kosher.

  • pdxuser

    So kosher bacon is from the foreskin of the pig?

    non Kosher food is anything that is an abomination in the eyes of the lord, and that right there is indeed an abomination and should be smitten by the righteous.

    Using a millisecond subliminal frames in a video is banned by most countries and considered a despicable method to fool the masses and for increasing sales… – Shapeways.. what can you expect.

    “Tea, Earl Gray, hot. Bacon, Moebius, Kosher, vegan.”

  • PhosPhorious

    The deliciousness of bacon has always been unbounded.

  • Eark_the_Bunny

    That is just WRONG in so many ways.

    So, why is some guys face being flashed at me?

      Kevin Bacon

      They use banned method to insert a millisecond frame in the video to fool your brain to want that item they are selling. Its called subliminal Ads and its banned by most countries.

        You’re right, I have the overwhelming urge to purchase mass quantities of Kevin Bacon.

      • Joaquin Baldwin

        They didn’t, I did (I’m the designer and shop owner, and creator of the video). And it’s not a subliminal message, unless it’s supposed to give you an extreme urge to copulate with Mr. Kevin Bacon, it’s a joke (the whole design is a joke). Take it easy, I can assure you that you haven’t been brainwashed entirely, some neurons might still be firing.

    So, if you want to keep kosher and vegan at the same time, your only food option is plastic?  But delicious-looking plastic is OK with the Lord? And the… um… vegan mafia or whatever?

    • http://drwho.virtadpt.net/ The Doctor

      The Vegan Police, actually.  The Vegan Mafia broke edge and fell apart due to interior conflicts.

  • Rich Keller

    You can get real bacon just like this from pigs that are topologically identical to Klein bottles.

    Do. Not. Want.

    “Infinite?”  A Moebius strip is no more “infinite” than a circle.  If anything, it’s less infinite, having fewer surfaces and edges.

    • http://evilbobdayjob.blogspot.com/ Deidzoeb

      As a path to trace one’s finger around, it would be infinite. As a food source, the complexity of a 3D printer seems like it would make this stuff more likely finite than just plants or pigs that could keep reproducing.

      Except, you know, heat death of the universe and all that.

    Tuesday is Soylent Pink day!

  • http://twitter.com/beep54orama B E Pratt

    But it is explicitly stated that it is “not delicious”. Phooey.

  • http://evilbobdayjob.blogspot.com/ Deidzoeb

    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
