Luigi Mangione = Hero
Eric Adams explaining to the news about how the NYPD would spare no expense and give this case special treatment and then immediately realizing what he was admitting to and adding, “but we would do that for any New Yorker. We don’t give special treatment.” was a perfect example of another aspect to why people aren’t too upset about this murder.
Class divide is strong in America.
The CEO is highly compensated because of his leadership, direction and influence. But when push comes to shove, we allow him to hide behind “the system” as if he has no influence at all. He is just a victim of the system? Please. We’re not buying that. If he has no influence, why does the board need to pay him so much?
Some say, “any CEO would do the same.” But that’s flawed logic. No one who wouldn’t do the same wouldn’t get to be CEO.
Then, when he is murdered, we all have to watch our police force give his case extra treatment. While cops sit in the subway scrolling their phones, ignoring people. People report violent crime and are told by nypd that “we didn’t see it, there’s nothing we can do”.
And so we don’t care.

FUCK ADOBE!
Figma pdf suckery
So what you need is a proper adobe acrobat, and a custom profile set-up for print and pre-press.
All you need to do is to print that shit to PDF and its going to be fine.and yeah CMYK is fucked, still. there is no support for spot colors etc.
overall:
Don't use Figma its a trash product for people who have no fucking idea how to use adobe products and want to design only dumb-fuck templates.- I just exported a PDF from Figma, around 200MB, then opened it with Affinity Designer 2, resaved it and it was 75MB
sRGB colors, but still workable...grafician - But it's fair to say Figma is for digital product work, should not be used for print work unless you know what u're doing...grafician
- Also Figma just raised prices, it's time to go back to Sketch ehehehegrafician
- Even if the Adobe/Figma merger happened I doubt Figma would have gotten spot and offset color support; It's meant for other things, and so was XD.evilpeacock
- Exactly.grafician
- also it's built for the browser, I don't think they can implement print features even if they wantedgrafician
- They could easily incorporate CMYK and profiles but won’t.monospaced
- Side note: my go-to AI-to-AE importer Overlord now works with Figma — except all my clients give me "read-only" docs to build from, so plugins can't be used.evilpeacock
- @monospaced again talking about stuff you have no clue, again telling they really can't, they use WebGL as 2D render engine, sRGB+alpha sure, CMYK nografician
- On the other hand, Sketch - as a native Mac app - could in theory support CMYK profilesgrafician
- Love Overlord <3PonyBoy
- I’m aware it’s web app, and that drawing to screen is RGB. Adding a print color space wouldn’t be impossible, as you imply.monospaced
- Overlord is a great Illustrator plugin. It's comparable to AEC4D-PRO which sends Cinema 4D objects to AE.CyBrainX
- to be fair Adobe's current spot color support is fucked. they are moving away from being a print friendly ecosystem every day.jonny_quest_lives
- as mono pointed out getting something from srgb into CMYK isn't hard... it's just a conversion tablejonny_quest_lives
- Optimizing for specialty print though... extra spot channel/plate, call outs for foil/emboss, varnish callout/platesjonny_quest_lives
- that's degrees above a simple profile to profile conversionjonny_quest_lives
- just my 2 centsjonny_quest_lives
- Why is this in the Adobe threadnb
- sted probably was in rage and couldn't find the Figma thread
https://www.qbn.com/…grafician - yeah because i was fucking grafician mothers ass.
@nb fuck off, that's why:
https://www.qbn.com/…sted - Small dick energy @sted
Figma is for big boys anyway, no wonder you have problems getting it to workgrafician - lol big boys?monospaced
- hmm it almost makes me question wtf was my post about and why so many people agree, weird isn't?sted
- the original objective behind Figma was to enable "anyone [to] be creative by creating free, simple, creative tools in a browser."sted
- Did it not allow you to be creativenb
- I mean lol at bringing up that mission statement or whatevernb
- lol isn't that from Canva?!grafician

blog
This was also one of my decisions to move to Hawaii,
to be away from the information world.I just learned about Assad from my 80yo mother on the phone. Also this Luigi guy, here.
I'm really not following anything deliberately except occasional Gaza news from my instagram feed.I used to trade stocks and that required me to follow news like "Iranian drone bombed an oil tanker in Hurmuz" so that I'd hold on to an energy stock. Not doing that anymore either.
My life is more focused. On myself, on my life here and what I'm after. I'm also less opinionated, still posting about Gaza every now and then because that is a more direct threat to our shared human body, but I want to observe and really want to find new ways to express my reactions.
Like with art or doing more regenerative things to slightly compensate the harm we're doing.
But mostly I want to fill my own cup first, I have a lot of baggage to shed.
With that weight, I don't think I'm good enough to say much.I'm questioning all my motivations and trying to find the most real and useful way to exist.
- Well done ;)OBBTKN
- It’s great you decided to stop watching tv news, seriously. I did the same 7 years ago. Nothing about Hawaii is removed from it though.monospaced

Luigi Mangione = Hero
Not sure if this guy was court appointed or what but I don't think he's up to the job:https://www.tmz.com/2024/12/10/l…
We should start a go fund me page to get Luigi the best lawyer money can buy, I think most juries would be sympathetic to him.
Hell, even Vinny bag of Donuts would be a better lawyer than his current guy.
- well looks like go fund me took it down but givesendgo is up https://www.givesend…_niko
- What kind of defense do you imagine for murder on the street? Not saying I don’t think he deserves defense, but he has no way out of a conviction.monospaced
- Maybe Biden will pardon himYakuZoku
- a guy in a hoodie and a mask is all the evidence they have everything is circumstantial. Shit, if they got OJ off..._niko
- I mean, the cops tried to plant getaway money on him and they planted monopoly money instead_niko
- He admitted doing it in his manifesto, hard to walk that back.i_monk
- could be a setup, could be a patsy, could be a coerced hitman... that's why judges rarely let people enter a guilty plea, let justice work or try to_niko
