TRMNL completely customizable e-ink display. Beautiful product. Battery last 3 months. Easy on the eyes. Weighs 6oz. I love this shit man (even though I have no idea what I would put on display). Bummed I missed out on the first wave but restock coming in march. 🤞 usetrmnl.com

I may have celebrated too early. I’m getting literal spam not just in my inbox, but in my PRIMARY (supposed to be most important) inbox category. Definitely some tuning needed for this feature

Spam email for a free 2 month home warranty! Wow!

Cave's of Qud released yesterday after 15 years of development and I am completely enthralled by the visual work on display here. The info density, palette, and visual artifacts hitting on all cylinders in both the menu system and the environmental design of the gameplay. It's fucking good

Screenshot from Caves of Qud gameplay highlighting its use of a limited color palette to direct attention.

Screenshot from Caves of Qud menu system (Quests) showing it's information density and text-heavy aesthetic.

Caves of Qud character creation screen. It's very minimal in contrast to the other information dense screens in the menu system.

The environmental design of Caves of Qud has beautiful moments of symmetry and again a powerful color palette.

Just got my rental for the week. The Sony FX-30 is an astonishing build of a product. Feels great in the hand, build quality is top notch minus the plasticky dial in the rear. The style is on point and very utilitarian with the built in 1/4-20 threads I love this for $1500

What a difference an icon can make for user expectations. Bluesky's DM icon feels way faster, lighter as opposed to X's... email service??? I would wager on the long haul people use bsky’s DMs more casually than on X

Spinner is feeling much better and more on brand with thicker strokes, rounded caps, and fewer points. It's surprisingly hard to find a customizable, point-based spinner component so this is from scratch #designsky #design

I go into my decks to see which one I have the least progress towards and choose that one because how can you have fun without over optimizing
