Every person in the world now owns a matter replicator, but due to the limitations of the technology, there is a 24-hour cool-down in between each use. How would people use this technology?

Its a space of 1meter×1meterx1meter, basically a cubic meter where the matter replicator works on. (So, no replicating cars, since its too big)
How do you min-max this?
You're viewing a single thread.
The moment you try to min max the economy will fall apart. Replicate new PC parts? Cool, but now intel/AMD/Nvidia will go bankrupt, no more development. So I guess you could min-max the economical revolution. Capitalism doesn't appear to make sense in a world with near endless access to anything.
Personally I'd get heaps of food and water
I hate that by now, I have found a way for capitalist to bill you anyways.
Nah, economy would suffer and adapt, but not technology or science. Engineers still would get together and work on new designs, but not for money.
Wait... So getting ample food and water to common people is a downside to capitalism?
Yea you are right, if people are fed and satisfied. They wont be needing any unnecessary stuff that feeds the capitalist.
