   This is an amazing concept....

   Open Sourced "3D Printed" Pharmaceuticals

   Build your own pill printing machine. Feed it an open sourced "recipe" / medical chemical compound instruction. Add some base ingredients. And make your own medicine.

   This is an exceedingly solarpunk idea and could be a core aspect of a post-scarcity world as it relates to healthcare.

   They have information about abortion medication (Misoprostol), ADHD medication (Vyvance), and more.

   There are obvious issues - especially around quality control, safety, effectiveness, and application. And the makers address this - but wow. Just wow.

   I very specifically have not verified any of this. But I'm incredibly interested in diving in and learning about it and its feasibility.

   The anarchist collective behind this venture, Four Thieves Vinegar Collective (@4thievesvinegar), spoke at this last DefCon 32. See @mixael's talk here (via Peertube): https://kolektiva.media/w/uvD1wWTRoh7HEto8zeSswr

   Here is a @404mediaco article by @jasonkoebler : https://www.404media.co/right-to-repair-for-your-body-the-rise-of-diy-pirated-medicine/

   Here is their main website: https://fourthievesvinegar.org

   Here is are the open sourced instructions (along with parts list - both purchased and off the shelf along with 3D printed parts): https://github.com/FourThievesVinegar/solderless-microlab

   Definitely something to follow and learn more about. I'm excited and hope this is effective and grows.

   (HT @aeischeid for highlighting the article and HT my dear friend for telling me about it after going to their DefCon talk!)
