I went back to see if this had been posted but couldn't see it https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/230659454/scribble-a-revolutionary-pen-that-draws-in-any-col The Scribble is a revolutionary pen that can scan colors from any object and INSTANTLY reproduce the color on paper or a digital screen But now a completely different thing is seeking funds. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/cronzy-pen-over-16-million-colors-in-your-pocket-art-gadgets#/ Just scan any object or click on the application on your smartphone, choose any color you like and start writing or drawing. Now with the benefit of this thread I can recognise the 'featured on wall' as a warning sign.

Veotax posted:loving christ, here have some bad Kickstarters. From the Kickstarter 'rules' Projects that involve the development of physical products must feature explicit demos of working prototypes. While you can run a project focused on the creation of a prototype, you can't offer the product that is under development as a reward. I mean, Valve, Sony and Oculus can't do it as well as this guy can. Obviously.

red19fire posted:This was my favorite, after that change to facebook's TOS the rumor spread that you could make a post on your wall that made it so Facebook employees and federal agents can't use your posts in court or some nonsense. It was the equivalent of 'cops take an oath to tell the truth at all times and have to reveal if they're undercover' It's up there with 'they can't arrest you if they're not wearing a hat.' Or 'Admiralty law'. Hilarious until you realise the person telling you is deadly serious. Then even more so.

Nano particles! Pigments! Slick video Sketchy technical details Wall of media links Seems almost too good to be true... quote:Unlike other 3D printer manufacturers like Stratasys®, Objet® or 3D Systems® that buy their printhead technology from big companies like Ricoh® and Xerox®, we have developed our own proprietary printhead. This has allowed us to drastically reduce production costs, increase the capabilities of our printer and offer unrivaled value to backers.

WampaLord posted:And now if your PIN gets hacked or figured out multiple accounts are compromised! The pin for all my cards is 8787, all my accounts are now 'compromised' - knock yourself out. My card was actually cloned once - in Florida using the magnetic strip I assume since it was a few years ago. But since the transactions were made in Florida when I was making withdrawals elsewhere the bank reversed them and that was the end of it. I can't even remember if they replaced the card, I'm not sure they did. Rapulum_Dei has a new favorite as of 10:09 on Apr 21, 2017 |

senrath posted:It's because the vast majority of online payment processors are really drat squeamish when it comes to adult content, for some stupid reason. And if you're not big enough to tell them to go gently caress themselves (like Amazon is) then it's easier to just "not allow" the stuff, but only take action when it's explicitly pointed out to you. Are you sure about that? I’m pretty sure I read somewhere that porn websites were among the first to develop secure credit card payments and subscriptions.
