Looking forward to trying that today.

The extroverts feed on us like we’re their cattle

Only to a degree. Good flags are simple, distinct, memorable, easy to recognise from a distance, easy to recreate.
There are plenty of objectively bad flags out there that fail in their design, yet people still like them, and that is fine.

Someone correct me, but I understood that donations serve as a tax write-off.
So they don’t care about the donations as much as their own savings.

No they’re not supposed to be piling it up

I want an option to select Marvin the paranoid android mood: “there’s your answer, now if you could leave me to wallow in self-pitty”

I didn’t say “It’s not a bad decision because there’s a reason”.
I shared that because I found it interesting myself and thought that others might too.

Design lead wants parting earth and flowing lava. Budget dictates static assets and baked in animations.

Fast food restaurants looking generic is on purpose.
There’s value in owning a property. That value is a lot lower if it’s something like McDonald’s kid-theme restaurant, or the classic Pizza Hut building.
If you got a generic modern building, it can be used for anything and sold with ease.

Sounds like an easier job for the landlord/owner, not having to manage coins and exchange.

That’s not a design decision per se, but a physical limitation of camera lenses and light.
The thickness* of the device could be considered a design decision.

Fusion doesn’t work well with these and has only gotten worse over time.
There are some install scripts on github, but the end result is buggy to the point of being unusable.

Really unfortunate because there is no free/affordable* alternative to Fusion without large caveats.

This is true and not just about ads. It’s called ‘sign blindness’.
Having more signs can actually exacerbate the problem.
It’s not (always) about being dumb or careless, it’s our nature.

It’s so that you can pontificate on that tissue you left in your pocket as it dissolves into little bits of paper snot and gets stuck on everything

That sounds fucking terrifying! But also hilarious that they learn, adapt, and overcome

We make rhubarb cake using one from our garden. It’s delicious.

I have the same, and I mostly got it to be able to make minor height adjustments while sitting, but now I love it.
I only stand for a few hours of work, but it’s a major comfort difference to me compared to the office.

I’d also like that please if you get around to it. It’s been on my backlog for a while now.

Ah yes, the I suffered so should you argument

Future is not low prices, our future was sold out for a quick buck
