Comment on California just passed a law forcing mandatory DRM in 3D printers

  For a first print, yeah. This is more me bitching about the artist alley of all my local cons being filled with 3D printed garbage than it is an endorsement of terrible DRM practices.

    No really what it is is it’s what people want it’s what people like it’s what people enjoy so of course they’re being made. You have to remember only a small percentage of people own 3D printers but a lot of people really like the stuff that’s made from 3D printers. So they’re not being marketed towards you they’re being marketed towards everybody else. And they sell really well.

      You’re describing 3D kitsch, not 3D art

        I never said 3d art. I said there is a place for these. They were created by artists and some are absolutely amazing.

  3d prints that aren’t even a person’s own design have no place being in a line up of artists

  They’re like 3D printer 101.

  This is like seeing baby’s first print and they’re trying to sell it.
