Michael Bierut, a partner at the design powerhouse Pentagram, led the 2019 overhaul of Slack’s visual identity. Moving away from the original "plaid" hashtag, which many found charming but technically flawed, Bierut introduced a cleaner "octothorpe."

@VeeZyXxx @ArcRaidersInfo I just unlocked this outfit and now you’re telling me it’s for rats? 😭
English
@ArcRaidersInfo Bros wearing a Sheisty and the rat outfit. We all knew it was coming 😂
English
Now this is just brutal…
This raider apparently crawled across the map 😭
English
@mitsuhiko But this won’t be deleted if I delete Creative Cloud by hand, so it will have false positives?
English
Apparently Adobe uses this hack to tell their web properties if you have creative cloud installed. This is … intrusive but creative.

made a digital archive of iconic tech ads

@Daily_SWGames I was thinking for years they should make a Satellite Reign clone called ‘Slicers’ but this looks like it might be an even better idea.

In Star Wars Zero Company, you can customise your squad members to be different species:
Human
Togruta
Twi'lek
Zabrak
Mirialan
Devaronian
Weequay
Rodian
Ovissian
Neimoidian
There are also R4, R2, R3 & BR-1 astromech options. BR-1's were made for this game. They're all unique.

@DmitriyLeybel @solarise_webdev New text every time.
Click on ‘walls’ it zooms to the outer wall and fills the text with info about them.
Click ‘parapet’ and it zooms to that and replaces the text. Etc.
English
@solarise_webdev Leagues beyond the latest examples. However, the issue of tracking what you were reading last still exists.
English
why are people so obsessed with this lol
like it's cool tech but almost every demo I see of it is totally impractical. it should just be used for laying out articles in more intersting ways

woa this is so fun!

@eschadiol Building a responsive website, showing it off by resizing the window and getting replies “why would you need this? No one grabs the corner of a window and moves it around while reading a website”.
English
the amount of people who are seeing the text demo like it’s supposed to be a design proposal and going “omg it’s unreadable, this looks like shit” is honestly a little alarming
English
@camandfilm @matpolloy It doesn’t help that they didn’t add anything to the ship to make it obviously different, like a mechanism on the inside strut that could facilitate the wings moving.
So now it’s vague enough to one day say they’ve all always been capable of this.
English
@matpolloy yeah i imagine they’ll change it to be that tie fighters were re-fitted in the outer rim/by imperial warlords to show that they’re making do with what they have left 😭 but then again they say it’s a completely different type of tie fighter so who knows
English
You are not crazy… the toys and card games have been using Outland TIE Fighter for years now.
This is genuinely one of the baffling changes in this book tbh. Like we’re now even reverting names released on Toys.
cam 🌌@camandfilm
am i being crazy or did this not used to be called the outland tie fighter?!… why have they back tracked to make it seem like a one off one that moff gideon had 😭🧍🏻♂️
English
@slope_s_ @langofmind Writers give villains complexity and 9 times out of 10 it’s “they also want to save the world but the way they are doing it involves killing a few people”.
I yearn for a bad guy who is just evil.
English
@langofmind Feel like giving villains complexity is nice but not always necessary. I didn't give af about any of the protaganists though which is a death knell for any story's enjoyment.
English
Everyone is giving the wrong reasons for why this sucks. It sucks because Darth Maul is a non-character. He's a guy with horns who has no interior goals or desires. Why is he here? Why are they fighting? None of this matters, and it's not about anything

“I genuinely can't understand how the previous generation saw this in 1999 and said "this sucks".”
English
@LuunieTuunie @CobaltGreen1138 Drag doesn’t exist in Star Wars.
Trying to reduce it in one ship means every other ship looks bad.
English
@CobaltGreen1138 Unrelated but if the wings can fold wouldn't it make sense for it to he like that in atmosphere to limit drag or something or are seinar designer idiots
English
HOLY SHIT THEY ACTUALLY CHANHED IT 💀💀💀 The original preview even had the correct Outland information. They've even updated the previews so it's missing all the mentions of it's original name. What the fuck???? This has been canon for YEARS. I don't understand!???

@HarrowwInk @sainimatic You can change ppi at any point and it won’t make a difference to the pixels of the image, it only changes the scale at which it prints.
The only way it will change the pixels is if you have resample turned on, where changing the ppi will also adjust the pixel dimensions.
English
everyone is saying "set ur canvas to 300dpi" but not mentioning u have to size ur canvas in inches or it wont make a difference 😭😭😭😭😭 2000x2000 px is the same thing at 72dpi and at 300dpi
skybookie 🇧🇷🏳️⚧️🔞 commissions open!!@skypbookie
how do ppl make their drawings look big like that, if i zoom in everything turns into pixels
English
@web4O @ZoeCatherineF @bentossell @OpenAI Yes, plenty of others have done it because there’s a company that would have the facilities to make it, and they aren’t going to have just one client.
English
@ZoeCatherineF @bentossell @OpenAI sure, but did someone else do it? you don’t have to spend a lot or be too clever, sometimes novelty is all merch needs
English
You shouldn't be wearing branded merch unless you're being sponsored or you're part of the team. Fashion corporations have pulled the biggest grift on consumers by convincing them to pay for low-quality garments that make them look like walking billboards.

@amircalilh @SheevTalks I associate it with a duel that he happens to be part of, since it’s not playing every time he’s on screen.
English
@SheevTalks I dont think its that deep… Its just cool music that people associate with Maul. Star wars themes are used everywhere, and Dave Filoni isnt responsible for the music choices here
English
It’s kinda crazy how Dave Filoni himself explained the thematic point of “Duel of the Fates” in The Phantom Menace, and how it’s not actually Maul’s theme, and then still proceeded to do this

@cosmicjester Will all the crests and stuff be the same?
Like if your kid wanted a Gryffindor scarf but is crying because you got the movie Gryffindor scarf and not the TV show one.
English
This show will probably be fine and popular but the (other) problem with it is when Harry Potter is already a billion dollar industry with theme parks and merch the new series has to look too similar to the old movies to make it match with existing IP.

First look at the live-action ‘HARRY POTTER’ series.

American tourist defeated by the on/off switch
Luna Stratton@lunar_light3
Okay, I think I found my problem. Every outlet has an on/off switch and they're all off. Why? Why is this a thing? Also, where's the stove one? *more confused American noises*
