We can get metamaterials to do stuff that normal materials won't. These materials are usually solid, but recently, there were some mechanical metafluids created, and they can be controlled magnetically. 🧪

who up engineering they microscale geometries of diamondoid from a metamaterial angle?
no it'll definitely have constraints, like for example "printing a steak" probably is a non-starter because it's too wibbly-wobbly, and anything soft would be approached more from a metamaterial angle with engineered microscale geometries of diamondoid
