@usgraphics @gargoyle8148 Somebody being a bit cheeky bbc.com/news/articles/…

@sainimatic $1450, looks like it is in great shape. ebay.com/itm/1977032786…

@usgraphics had no idea you could just buy these

@gargoyle8148 I have so many questions...

@usgraphics My uncle thought the same thing.

@andrewmccalip @alexkaplan0 This is how I know of you haha good times

@alexkaplan0 👀

Alright mutuals, I’m back! How many of you remember LK-99? Those were the days…

Blessed be this community, for it is the greatest of all time.

@dreamwieber I love you all lmfao

@usgraphics Or the order coffee lever

It might look goofy as hell but it is super aerospace coded and offensive to designers: the switch/lever should be a miniature version of the thing it actuates. e.g. the F-15 emergency canopy release switch is shaped like... well the canopy.

@undeadpinko Yea definitely. I very much dislike Porsche automatic shifters in “manual” mode. Where in every other car you have to pull to upshift and push to downshift; Porsches are opposite to the inertial forces your arm/hand undergoes.

@usgraphics I guess the action should be shaped like what you're trying to do too, like twist to flush or pull to open. Push to open something that wings towards you feels especially wrong

@alexharri_ @paper Welcome Alex, absolutely love everything you do.

Hello! It's about time I started posting here. I'm Alex Harri. I write technical posts -- typically deep dives -- on alexharri.com. I joined @paper recently. I built their pen tool; lots more in the works. Excited to share behind-the-scenes videos and ideas here!

The flap lever is shaped like the flap.

or...the landing gear is shaped like the landing gear in the 737NG.

Physical switches and buttons are highly desirable in this age of touch-screenification, but these are two of the most regressive trends in modern design.

Concept and contrast of Disney Research goes insanely hard. Like imagine if Ghibli Studios on the side worked on non-linear governing dynamics of Hamiltonian-Jacobi systems or something.

@QuadBillionaire yea it is subtle. Default link color is rgb(0, 0, 255). Pure blue. Instead we have rgb(34, 26, 187) which is a purple'ish blue.

@usgraphics they looked blue on my SDR, $150 165hz ebin gamer display

DigiKey is becoming purple. It's totally over.

@QuadBillionaire Links too

@usgraphics its just a fucking banner chill the fuck out

Positively, reassuredly, fastening is part of the interface as it changes the way you interact with the system. The subtle anxiety of barely secured and fastened things is unbearable for me. It makes an otherwise perfectly adequate system -- utterly flawed and unusable.
