Getting to the weirder side of things, some schmuck has made 3D printed armour for barbie dolls. Oh, and it's open-source (what?) He explicitly mentions he has nothing to do with mattel, which makes the legality of this questionable as well.

If he's modeled the armour himself then it's kind of an alright kickstarter, I guess. Someone should also make G.I. Joe-compatible tutus. As for legality, I don't think it's more illegal than making iPhone-compatible car holders or whatever.

Seems completely fair to me. You can't really copyright the idea of "things you can put on a Barbie".

The other thing is that it's mostly to aid in his development of the next generation of Barbie armor and the creation of custom armor sets for backers. He's actually giving away the base files. I've already seen his files for the aegis and sword on Thingiverse.

My main issue with the Barbie armour is home 3D printing still looks like rear end. It's so loving grainy, like those giant lego models at Legoland. I guess more power to people who want their doll covered in voxelized plastic, but it just looks nasty to me

It doesn't look the best but I would have loved it as a little kid. I think he mentioned in the description as well that he was inspired to make it for his niece before deciding to release it on the world, and that's nice

He's making the files available, too, and when the printers get better so too will the armor.

Also, it's because it's using PLA and not ABS. ABS is really easy to finish, you just pour acetone on it and the striations fuse into a solid-looking surface.

The funny thing is there's a crowd funding service for that kind of thing already at Patreon, but you sort if need to be actually creating content and grow the audience from there. Lot of terrible stuff on there but at least they're forced to grow organically rather than try to promise the moon on a scam.

quote:In 100% atomic clock mode, the watch consumes a great deal of power and can therefore only run 3-4 hours in this mode. However, via the interface it is possible to set parameters that cycle the full atomic mode on and off based on a schedule, and this allows the watch to run off the charger for up to 36+ hours.

It's not a rebuttal of the Bible from an atheistic perspective, though it does reintepret events from the Bible naturalistically e.g. algae turned the Nile red. This isn't even funny in a wacky way, like Jesus being eaten by zombies: " Hell nor the devil came into being until 300 years after Jesus died."
