To me the worst aspect in this video is how homelessness is kind of seen as a technological and economic problem rather than a fundamentally economic and legal/human rights issue.

I was born in 1950. My dad bought 2.5 acres about 45 minutes north of Seattle which at the time was all woods. There was no regulations or permitting. He build a humble hand made house with no mortgage while working as a construction worker and raised 3 kids. All our neighbors lived is humble shacks. Then the suburbs built up around us. The early homesteaders moved on and their small acreages turned into lots with houses. Now we've down zoned the land in an attempt to saves some of it, while increasing the population. The US had 200 million people when my dad bought his property. Now there is 320 million. Up over one third in just my lifetime. When we begin to reach zero population growth, they throw open the boarder to millions of people from large family cultures.

[@tylerdurden3722]

Prices are mostly determined by demand and supply. In Los Angeles, everyone wants to live close to the Bay Area due to economic opportunities. Demand has gone up. But there's no more space to build more houses. Supply has remained the same. This causes prices to rise fast due to demand. The world recently passed the point where more than 50% of the global population now live in cities. So, more people are cramming into smaller areas, competing for housing. Hence why housing prices have gone up significantly. The problem is it a lack of houses. The areas we're trying to all cram into is too small to facilitate that much housing.

[@firecatgreg]

@@tylerdurden3722 The goal of Agenda 2030 is to reduce land and allow wilderness and smart cities to create urbanized housing for the masses so they will all live as renters. The goal is to destroy all aspects of production and capitalism so there won't be any energy for food, travel or really anything at all. The goal of Agenda 21 and leaders like Canada's prime minister and Biden is to destroy the economy and private property and consumer markets, to create a world wide destruction of the free world. They will squeeze and squeeze and offer half baked tech solutions that don't work because they cannot be powered by a missing power grid, a missing credit and economic grid and a missing food grid. Corporations and dreamers who produce these wonder gadgets will still try to innovate, but you will hear things like in one POST CARBON institute webcast that things are so much better under Covid because we all learned to live off 10 percent of what we were living off of. But nobody is living and supporting their taxes and house payments on 10 percent of what they were getting pre-covid, it's all funny money bailouts. Without real production you have NO ECONOMY and even the farms are being taken over to create a natural land for wilderness. Which means setting aside resources for countries like China which are producing cities. pouring as much cement in three years actually 40 percent more than the USA poured in 100 years. So capitalistic countries like China will continue to rise with their authoritarian capitalism and NAZI like harvesting of donor organs from their oppressed class and they will pollute 7 times more to produce steel we could have made here in the USA, with no bounds on pollution they will continue to pollute and create far more C02 30 times more than every volcano for three years in the world with C02 output alone. As they do this they will continue to grow a real economy while the US and other five leading nations of the "evil" first world are destroyed by Agenda 2030 plans which are NOT SUSTAINABLE Economically but designed to take away farm land, private property and cram the starving survivors into stacked small rooms in "smart cities" which is a keyword for a controlled population in planned high rise hell like the former Soviet Union or Failed dense population housing in the third world. With Uganda like farming goals of destroying farming to "save the world" from global warming, it's not wonder some hope some kind of robotic housing can be built on the cheap for the drug addicts and poor souls destroyed by their own party spirit or the outsourcing of all jobs to China as we feed, obey and observe the commands from our overlords in China. Some dream of robotic 3d buildings on Mars hoping to get away and 3d printed homes and construction is much like primitive MUD earthen houses, but its' poured via robots. In many countries of the world cement is the worst form of building material. It's even looked down on by Agenda 21 planners seeking to destroy America and capitalism under a guise of false sustainability. Nice technology ideas, but they almost never scale to something that can help people. But with a goal to steal, kill and destroy capitalism all these upstart businesses will be swept away into a sea of unsustainable economic profit as the destruction of the US economy is the key anyway and the goal anyway for Chinese and communist domination. It's cool stuff the tech no doubt, but much of that tech is then used against the masses by the central powers. For example learning about low cement produced compressed earth block was done a lot by the US military as they created houses and complexes in their bases to practice on so they could replicate housing in Iraq. So the Army for example learned a lot about how to make earthen and compressed earth houses, because they needed to develop munitions to shoot through the walls of earthen wall houses in Iraq. So much of the new school technology is just a twist on the old school technology of earth based housing used in the third world. We add a robot instead of making walls out of compressed earth blocks and act as if it's an advantage. By the way they even have compressed earth block building machines that make the blocks which use 10 percent of the cement in a cement block house as less cement is needed when mixed with earth. 10 percent or less cement means a lot less fossil energy is needed to create the same volume of housing. So compressed earth or mixed earth 3d printing might be a cool thing. But then again in America and first world countries the average real estate agent and city assessor likes more traditional housing often being stick framed housing and block houses bring less tax dollars. The high level of taxes and prices of bubble economies for flipping and creating greater value housing to support the central planners or local planner government is also an issue. If you make housing to cheap, they won't be able to tax it and the political push back can be immense. And much of the cool stuff we see from alternative housing livestyles is cool but the embedded energy and large footprint of those structures can't always scale to meet the needs of denser city populations the average earth ship house costs a TON Of money but tries to save on energy efficiency from solar gains. And the average home or self sufficient crop farmer with biofuels, gardening, crops for animals food and energy for their lifestyle is unsustainable via PEAK OIL theory which of course has been proven to be a false energy crisis as well, but much wisdom is piece together in small pieces as they act as if they don't have a plan and are doing things in different approaches. . . I don't condemn all the approaches, but the overall plan is often hidden it's agenda 2030 based on a 1000 page plan which requires the destruction of the capitalistic world and the destruction of farming and capitalism without any alternative system that can work. So this is NOT A SLAM on the GOOD INNOVATION they are trying to do here, it's just a quick warning to tell you these solutions are not perfect nor necessarily based on a solution that is well thought out. You still need raw materials, work, and energy and wealth to make this work. The overall problem is the far right and far left almost have the same goal for the average person.

Now, the price has actually been INCREASING for comparable chips or slightly better chips. Their cost isn't increasing as fast as inflation, but it's still an issue. Until we hit a BIG break and there are two ont he horizon that are inevitable: nano tech/nanobots for building all the components other than the chips, making all the other stuff really small, and 2) quantum computers.

Do you understand that housing used to be affordable (in the US) BEFORE the US went off the gold standard? Before 1971 a modest middle income house was worth about 2x annual income. A starter home was half to 2/3ds annual income. People saw CARS as the status symbol, not houses. To put it in todays framing a house would be $50k-100k. In the suburbs. A starter home (basic shelter) would be 20-35k. When you de-value the currency so people can't simply save for the future, you start a rat-race. There's only ONE thing in the world they can't make more of, and thats land. As long as we have fiat currencies, housing and land will remain as a store of value for the average person.

Why? because so many had died that the ruling class had no choice but to pay almost a living wage. And peasants had options. A neighboring lord would protect and value a good worker, welcoming if they decided to leave their lord. But me, my lord treated me fairly well when my life fell apart during the worst of this disaster. And now that my money is worth 20% less than what it was a few years ago, i got a raise to almost cover that (of course the govt says it's only like 8% inflation but other than my mortgage, anything i go buy is 20% to 100% more expensive than it was a year or two ago..

I understood that we have plenty of housing, and housing is expensive because people with money accumulate it to up sell or rent, which artificially drives up rent and home prices. I'd like to see rent and mortgages capped at a reasonable percentage of household income. If you want to rent or sell to someone you must offer something within their cap. We'd have to do it gently, but it could end the practice of hoarding land and housing to jack up the prices and turn wealth into more wealth.

but that is how the rentier class makes money. they wont part with the goose with the golden eggs willingly. it will require the use of force. it always has, historically.

[@evannibbe9375]

I think the better way to stop the hoarding of land is to impose a progressive property tax where you have to pay say $1*(value of all land you own)*atan(ln(value of all land you own)/1000)/pi. This means that it suddenly makes sense for landlords to divide up and sell their units to their tenants (potentially for mortgages which have a monthly interest equal to what the rent would be) in order to decrease the total tax liability of everyone even if the total value of the property remains the same. This way, when those owners go to develop the property they just bought with additional units, they can now sell those additional units under similar terms, and as an area becomes more desirable, the profits from these sales can be distributed to more people!

ALL the other items still have to be installed ..like the kitchen ,bathroom ,electrics, plastering etc etc .. Yes it speeds up builds but not as fast as this video is making out ...

[@AbraxasArcadia]

In a way that's good, it will mean a lot of jobs for people to finish off the properties if this technology becomes the norm.

[@leeseyr503]

@@AbraxasArcadia agreed . The only reason I made this comment is because as an ex builder I know people get the wrong idea ... Most will assume its finished in that time ... Like you have on TV with these programs giving the wrong impression .. Makes builders life's harder than they are already as people have unrealistic expectations

Oh come on... People understand that they're not printing a damned fridge out of concrete.

As a retired builder i remember 'Experts' saying Machines will soon be building All constructions around the World.......that was back in 1972 !!

The sad thing is in The US we already have enough houses for people to live in but because it won’t bring anyone a profit. Homeless people don’t have that right so the houses just lay vacant.

[@luddity]

And so many of their tents are decorated with huge flags. The state of the American Dream.

[@TheSuperappelflap]

in the netherlands we have more than enough houses for everyone but young people cant move out of their parents houses because the rents in the cities are too high and nobody is selling because the prices go up 10% every year. so the market has 0 liquidity. even though there are like a million vacant houses in the country.

[@timhofstetter5654]

Are you personally prepared to relinquish your resources so some stranger can have an imaginary "right"? If everyone had a right to a residence, what would stop people from trashing a place and moving on to the next place? They'd set up a burn barrel in the living room and take out all the windows and copper wire to sell them.

[@TheSuperappelflap]

@@timhofstetter5654 having a right to 1 free residence doesnt mean you get to trash it and move on. they would have to live in it after they trash it. if people want to live in trash, no one can stop them. but we can give them 1 chance to do better. and a tiny house or trailer only costs a couple thousand bucks. its literally cheaper to give homeless people small housing than to make them sleep on the street where they will steal, do drugs, get sick, etc. hospitals and law enforcement cost more than housing does.

[@cc-tb3st]

@@TheSuperappelflap so today people make a mistake for whatever reason which tenders them homeless. So you say it's heartless to let them be homeless and we need to give them 1 free house. If they screw it up that's their problem and they're homeless again. People will call you heartless because it's so cheap to just print them another house. See the slippery slope? Someone will always have a bigger heart and be willing to give someone more no matter if you think they deserve it or not. It's not their money they are giving away. Its the community which they believe has a responsibility to take care of everyone no matter how much they have messed up in the past. They only need one more chance and a little more help and they will fix their lives. After all, it's cheaper to give them something than to force them to do without. The question isn't what you think is reasonable to sacrifice to help someone, but what society thinks is reasonable to force you to sacrifice to help others. Eventually, you run out of other people's money.

Fabulous, so many ways to utilise 3D printing.

[@juliewake4585]

A bit better than printing your own gun eh?

[@DP-ot6zf]

Can't wait to print out that beauty I saw on a certain website.

[@BulletMagnetMan]

This is absolutely amazing!!!

[@stan6726]

You are even more amazing

[@kristibbradshaw]

Awesome. I’m so impressed.

[@constantinople777christens5]

Convert all the abandoned commercial real estate and warehouses into apartments for homelessness.

[@re-unbox896]

Could spell mass unemployment of the construction workforce regardless of its wonderful potential. Irony.

[@waynekerrgoodstyle]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@juliewake4585]

I expect some of the weavers in the nineteenth century thought the same thing.

[@TheSuperappelflap]

if we gave everyone a cheap 3d printed home with a vegetable garden, they wouldnt need to work construction jobs to prove their right to exist.

[@Oddman1980]

I get the feeling that in the US, they would 3d print a house for a couple thousand bucks, then put it on the market for a million dollars.

[@heckinmemes6430]

They 3d printed some houses in new york and iirc they're on the market for 350-500k each.

[@CastleKingside]

Beautiful. Thank God for smart people.
