Sadly, the article does not say how much armor the robot can support and how best to use it to smite my enemies.

Part cost is estimated to be under $5000 and take a week for a novice roboticist to build. Very cool, but me and my kids will probably skip this one.

They have a tiny version that is listed as 1000 on their website, plus the simulation is FOSS

Their school has their own fully-permissive license!
They are seemingly conceding that their school is inferior to MIT at producing licenses.

Honestly all the copyleft licenses and others are garbage, hot take.

It’s a bandaid solution that people refuse to let go of, like a safety blanket. Absolute freedom of information is so surprisingly controversial of an opinion these days. It makes me fucking sick to so frequently see people behave in a way that feels literally brainwashed.

“nooooOooooooOooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUUUUUCK WE CANT ABOLISH COPYRIGHT THERE ARE STARVING CHILD ARTISTS IN AFRIIIIICCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaAAA”

Actually I’d be pretty flattered if someone liked art I made so much they decided to copy it or use it in their own way somehow. I’m not a psycho fucker who thinks state violence should be leveraged against someone for how they chose to copy my work. All copyright apologia I see is even worse hypocrisy than the literal fascist rhetoric you also see nowadays… and those fuckers are some of the biggest hypocrites! Anyway, not to be a crazy fucker myself and respond to my own rhetorical strawman lmfao.
