coming to the bleak realization that a lot of my life will be spent waiting for figma library changes to publish

normally I'm against generative AI art for a whole host of reasons, but when its parodying an already vapid genre, I think it's kinda iconic??? like I have no issue with this eating away at Morgan Wallen's dominance in the bro country music genre (this is the first and last time I will praise generative artwork okay thank you I've said my piece)

 @samhenrigold  first of all you’re a guest in MY house, don’t tell me when i have to open this letter. you know what? it’s going in mail jail. it’s gonna sit on my kitchen counter for a week. it needs to be humbled.  Little BTS video from the Archive: At WWDC 2010, they had a visualization showing the activity of the 50K most popular App Store apps. As apps are downloaded, their data is coalesced via an XML feed every five minutes. That data is then passed to an OpenCL kernel, which drives the animation and drops the icon into a column in the grid based on icon color. Quartz Composer renders the final synchronized output. Check out my video essay on how Google RUINED the Internet, out now on YouTube: https://youtu.be/P7NHABs76mg yeah I'm using HTML 6. my uncle works for W3schools so I get all the new versions first, it's whatever these ads would have a different tone if the robot was just brutalizing these phones lmao. A friendly voiceover says “Meet Daisy” and it just starts ripping the glass apart like a maniac https://youtu.be/BMOAZ4ZEgng I’ve had this idea sitting in my drafts for years now but it boils down to this:  As a low-dpi display user with no hope to upgrade, I like Windows font rendering a lot more than Mac's  @samhenrigold I think the fonts in my GNOME environments are gorgeous. Other people, without prompting, have asked how I got them to look so good. They were like that out of the box without configuration. I can't stand to look at anything else, including macs. I could simply be used to them I am not a designer but I am a UI engineer if it matters  @samhenrigold When you’re looking for your next conundrum to solve: In 2020 (remember those times?), at the end of the Platforms State of the Union, they showed a montage of black and white stills of developers working from home with a “we appreciate you” sort of message. However as far as I can tell, this was never released in any streamable/downloadable form after the live broadcast. I’d like to find it. (I was one of the developers shown.) full disclosure, I ran through those two URL schemes with all of the session names and didn't get anything beyond those two original URLs. Generated URL list I tried: https://gist.github.com/samhenrigold/fa8c1c2120dbf31d6e649df2dd72665f set an #xcode key binding for “Export Preview Screenshot” to ⌘^ (Cmd + Shift + 6) you’re welcome i think...i think i want a 2006 macbook pro. i think that'll be tonight's irresponsible decision i want something that can: i feel like this is the right machine for that? right? The key words “MUST”, “MUST NOT”, “REQUIRED”, “CAN’T'VE”, “MIGHTN’T’VE”, “SHAN’T”, “SHISN’T”, “AIN’T”, "CANNOTST'VE”, “REQUIREN’T”, “MAYN'T'VE’ST” in this specification are to be interpreted as described in RFC-2119.  babe what’s wrong? you’ve barely downloaded the piece of open source software i suggested as a solution to not so much a problem but more of a rhetorical funny observation you mentioned in passing i appreciate the sentiment but i would sooner swan dive into a pool of broken glass before i use gimp for literally any task I was looking for 1990s clipart yesterday and came across one called "COMPUTE.BMP" and I'm still at a loss for words GOD THE HOT MILK LIVE ALBUM IS SO FUCKING DELICIOUS INJECT IT INTO MY VEINS PLEASE https://open.spotify.com/album/4Vnbq1YLP6ZXZ9tLc5MBiH what an absolute shit show. forgot that his apartment was on the way to the nintendo store for me and had to walk through a sea of unvaccinated idiots. i think i just contracted covid 25 and possibly measles and gout. (the swarm is the block before the media pool. there was hollering and shoving and ugly banner flags with AI generated slop and i hated every second of it) |
might as well get started on this while I wait
