@levisan josef albers fan? always have my eye out for a cheap copy of interaction of color

my sofle keyboard “m” key stopped working and i dug out my never used $8 soldering kit. shortly had the socket swapped out for a new one and it’s all back to normal!

@mike iA writer! haven’t heard that app name in a while. man i used to have a design crush on iA big time like 15yr ago

@levisan like what?

marrakesh me outside

@viticci @joethephish that would be good!

@joethephish very cool! i think i would use this. seems like it takes up a lot of space though. possible to reduce the size of the top and bottom margins?

@levisan totally! i thought it looked like a homemade marshmallow

@jws @Toxic_Flange or... it could be my powers of recall arent what they were

@jws @Toxic_Flange huh, this is the first i'm learning of this! and i took canadian politics too... must have slept in that day

these guys marketing website's design is craaaazy. dont think i've seen anything like it! normally not impressed by scrolljacking but i'll give this a definite pass: http://pierre.co/

about to clear the snow off my truck bed. fold-down sides sure make it easy!

found the button! it’s from when i attended a lecture of his at glendon college circa maybe 2005?

wonder what david orchard would have to say about this whole tariff situation. i still have one of his “free trade is costing us canada!” buttons around here somewhere

@nicksherman haha, that makes a lot more sense. glad no poor innocent font is getting lambasted!

@nicksherman what font was he talking about? DIN? thought of fraktur blackletter at first but that’s one the nazis banned

@alan didn’t realize this about ticks! so in the far north there’s probably no ticks eh? come to think about it we weren’t warned about ticks when i was treeplanting in ogoki. the mosquitoes made up for it and then some though.

this is the year i start logging expenses as i go, so i just set up some guy's 1300+ actions-long iOS shortcut: https://www.reddit.com/r/shortcuts/comments/17bqcdf/update_an_eccentric_expense_tracking_shortcut/?share_id=C7joUorexbEKWTi5PefKi&utm_content=1&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1

it's impressive! reminds me of some of the crazy things folks built in applescript back in the day.

@chartier absolutely. i let my apple music lapse accidentally a few years back (card expired) and lost years of playlists — the ones i had made for my wife were an especially hard loss after the CDs i had burned them to were also destroyed.
