Self portrait

haven't done a slow painting for a while so

Detail crop, if you want to get a good look at my face

Needed to do a slow painting to remind myself I can do it. I tend to work quickly and stop exactly when I have just enough colour and line to get across what I want to communicate

Being an industrial design student that's perfectly fine and tbh I don't have any intent on changing it, but a nice illustration more fine-arts like is good every now and then

I do need to get better at painting fabric though. I think I have a hard time showing stuff that's loose and flowy

The latest VLC update tells you via a popup that the installer will not auto-launch due to a bug, and directs you to manually launch the installer from your temp folder without giving any pointers or directions to where that might be, and if that doesn't sum up the state of FOSS

VLC is luckily a fairly benign piece of software but this same lackluster UX/UI attitude pervades through a lot of FOSS and I'd argue is one of the largest hurdles needed to be overcome to allow widespread adoption, and I don't think enough devs appreciate this

I've had to give this explanation about NFTs and crypto-whatever before so I thought I'd just write it out here, thread to follow

One of the "problems" (if you view it as a problem) of digital goods is that they're inherently infinite. If I make a digital image, I transfer it endlessly, or make a billion copies with relatively little effort and with copies that are indistinguishable from the original.

This is contrast with real world commodities, say, a barrel of oil - if I wanted to get a barrel of oil I'd have to buy it off of someone else that had it or go put in the work (or pay someone else to do the work) to dig up a barrel of oil for me.

car furries are very useful for if you need material to do form studies of

also very good at getting clout when you draw their cars as sketch studies but you didn't hear me say that

I am drawing an E30

if privatisation is so great then how come every one of my parcel deliveries handled by a private courier manage to have some kind of crippling flaw in the process

This time I ordered a couple of things from Bed Bath & Beyond for the kitchen and somehow FedEx has simultaneously managed to deliver it four days ago and also not deliver it so. whee.

Fuck if I know what the premium cost of private courier service covers, lol, it ain't fuckin delivery
