This is the first house to be 3D printed from raw earthComments

The result is underwhelming, but the general tech to 'print' houses is pretty cool and like normal 3D printing pretty much all the shapes are possible.

Oh, sure. I’m fiercely curious about 3D printing houses, particularly out of meaningful materials like a pseudoconcrete, not this dirt that can’t stand up to a tornado. Being able to 3D print insulating pockets of a tough material at personal house scales will be an absolute revolution.

And 3D printing in concrete was done years prior to this (https://v2.incogtube.com/watch?v=DQ5Elbvvr1M), so this dirt one isn't necessarily innovative, but both projects make it more likely I will be able to print my own bunker.

I love pork dumplings.

Not sure if I'd call it a house. Looks more like a vacation home. Also wonder what the acoustics are inside.

It has none. It looks like a pork dumpling.
No, no, and no, respectively.
No, they don’t.
Wait, it only took 6 fucking kilowatts to run the machine to build this thing? He needs to stop everything he’s doing (because he’s totally shit at it) and focus EXCLUSIVELY on this. This is a goddamn revolution. You get THAT sort of energy savings from building a real house (you know, something that a human being would want to inhabit) and you’ll be a billionaire. That’s the sort of thing that Musk needs to be doing. This guy is going to squander the potential of this tech.
