DNP Inhabitat's Week in Green TKTKTK

Fast payday loans For Every One

For many years, the potential of 3D printing has made tech geeks drool, however now we’re lastly starting to see the innovation graduate from a simple novelty into an extremely useful tool. Take, for instance, the tale of the 5-year-old boy who was born without fingers on his right hand but lately received a 3D-printed prosthetic hand. Thanks to its quick turn-around rates, the innovation additionally allows researchers to test multiple designs instantly. For instance, in Australia researchers are using 3D printers to produce even more efficient tags that could be made use of to track huge fish. At Cornell University, researchers are experimenting with making use of 3D printers to print food that could possibly be consumed by astronauts in space, and experts in Edinburgh successfully 3D-printed embryonic stem cells for the first time, demonstrating exactly how 3D-printing innovation can one day get rid of the demand for organ donation. In related news, experts were recently surprised to find kids’s cells residing in mother’s brains long after maternity.

Wine coming to Android, will run Windows apps on Google’s mobile OS

Wine coming to Android, will run Windows apps on Google's mobile OS

Android apps on Windows? Been there, done that. Try running Windows programs on Android for size. Alexandre Julliard, the developer behind the Wine compatibility layer, gave an update about an ARM-friendly taste of the software and displayed a version that operates on Android at the 2013 Free and Open source Software Developers’ European Fulfilling. According to Phoronix, the trial of a Windows app operating on Android was “horrendously sluggish,” but Julliard chalks that up to the fact that the sample was chugging along on an Android emulator. Wine for Mountain View’s OS is stated to be an energetic work-in-progress, so there’s no word on when it may discover its method into the wild just yet.

Fat And Drunk: Alcoholic Wine Flavored Ice Cream

wine-ice-cream.jpg

Apparently Mercer’s wine flavored ice cream has actually existed for awhile but this is the very first time I have actually become aware of it so it was NEWS TO ME. You most likely currently knew about it though and feel the desire to call me a silly idiot in the comments. DO NOT RESIST THAT RECOMMEND. Keeping back your hate will only make you more cranky and painful to be around and I make sure your pals can scarcely stand you as it is. Mercer’s Wine Ice Cream is 5 % alcohol (you need to be of age to acquire it) and comes in flavors everybody’s mom will enjoy like Cherry Merlot, Chocolate Cabernet, Peach White Zinfandel, Harbor, Red Raspberry, Chardonnay, and Riesling. Sadly, there’s no boxed wine taste and buttchugging is highly discouraged. “Brain freeze?” Anal freeze brobro.

Thanks to cancan, who agrees alcohol should not be combined with anything but the saliva in your mouth.

boxed-wine-purse.jpg

You know what the problem with boxed wine is? Absolutely nothing, it’s perfect. But for you ladies out there who wish it looked more like a purse to, you know, class things up a bit, there’s Vernissage. Available in red, white and rose, the packaging is meant to resemble an upscale handbag…made of cardboard…with a rope handle…and a spigot at one end. Count me in. Oh what, like you never seen a man with two purses before? “Did you just sashay?” Wine makes me sassy!

Thanks to PYY, who asked if wine makes me feel so pretty then why is my head cocked and one eye half closed. God, I’m being seductive.

Wearing Your Drink: Dresses Made From Fermented Wine

wine-dress-1.jpg

Certainly brings new meaning to ‘cocktail dresses’, amirite? No? Nevermind then.

Seen here looking terrified at whatever she sees off camera (presumably a dog f***ing a camera tripod), a model wears a dress made from fermented wine. Mmmm, I bet that smells goooooood.

Micro’be’ fermented fashion investigates the practical and cultural biosynthesis of clothing – to explore the possible forms and cultural implications of futuristic dress-making and textile technologies.

Instead of lifeless weaving machines producing the textile, living microbes will ferment a garment.

By combining art and science knowledge and with a little inventiveness, the ultimate goal will be to produce a bacterial fermented seamless garment that forms without a single stitch.

Call me old fashioned, but the only drinks I wear are the ones I spill on myself. “It’s 7AM and you smell like bourbon.” Haha, my Eau de Intervention? What if I told you it was my roommate’s birthday and he made me take shots as soon as we got up? “You used that excuse a couple months ago.” Dammit, I TOLD you — he was born on Mercury, their years are DIFFERENT.

Hit the jump for a couple more shots of the icky sticky.

Ever wanted to see what it looks like when a shelving unit collapses in a liquor store sending almost 7,000 bottles of adult grape juice crashing to the floor? This. This is what that looks like.

This hand-made, leather sling for wine bottles attaches to your frame and lets you cruise to your date or party — without having to steer with one hand or bring a nerdy bag to hold the wine.

It’ll run you $ 25 Canadian — at this point normally I’d make a joke about Canadian dollars, but our uppance has come on that account, so I won’t — plus $ 8 for shipping. I could really use this thing, actually.
