Upskirt photographer is steady creeping in the stairwell of my train station. Notified building management and police a couple weeks ago. Apparently theres nothing they can do.
So...
A) Do I confront him again and cause a scene?
B) Make posters and hang them all over the station?- C) wear a skirt with no underwear and hangout where he likes to shootmoldero
- I'm pretty hairy. He won't capture much.dirtydesign
- D) Upcrotch himdetritus
- even bettermoldero
- postersmonospaced
- I've taken his picture several times. He gets pissed but does nothing. Posters could be hilarious.dirtydesign
- You should take photos of him/her and post on Google mapsrobotron3k
- Call him out, as loudly as possible, and make sure the woman he's doing it to stops and hears.i_monk
- Or do both.i_monk
- And add commentsrobotron3k
- Even better than posters: a placard with his picture caught in the act. Then follow him around.i_monk
- Film everythingset
- Good ideas. And some shitty ones. Thanks QBN.dirtydesign

Anyone remember the UI/design/look&feel of the last QBN version? Got a screenshot? Can't find it
this current one is awesome, BTW!

I had a dream last night, part of which was my viewing QBN through an apple device, and all the elements in my Feed displayed with in a column-like space with the up/downvotes displayed amply aside. Trouble was, they were set in a thin Helvetica, tightly-tracked and with fuck-all leading, so i was left swearing at the interface.
Then I flew around a mountain.

The website for Armin (the bass player) is almost ready.
Just waiting for the result of some help from a friend with the contact form and a minor issue with the Facebook iFrame and it's ready to go.
Because of some unemployment benefit bureaucracies, I've got to give them 80% of my extra earnings if I make more than 150€ extra a month, I will receive three quarters of the payment in the form of a Bass Guitar Bundle (Bass, Amplifier, Belt, Tuner, Stander, Bag)...
I will not charge that much because it's my first gig, I don't have so much experience, he's my housemate, I've been playing over a year with a borrowed 70's Fender Jazz Bass from him, etc...
I worked around 40 hours but half of the time was doing research and learning with my mistakes so I will charge him 25 hours of work...I think it's pretty fair.
I'm quite happy and in two weeks max it's all done and I have a bass of my own.
I can't decide between a Fender Squier Vintage Jaguar Cherry Red or a All Black Fender Squier Affinity PJ.
So we'll order both and we're gonna both try them out.
I'm super excited!Now back to drawing and spray painting...too much computer lately, need to free my head.
- Go for the VM. I mostly play guitar, but picked up a White Squire VM P-Bass recently. Every bit as nice as my Fender strat.section_014

- yip, donate.robthelad
- probably more stable than the later versions. Sounding Mr Linux fan boy here. Wipe it - put kodi and/or retropi (think that works on a mac)mugwart
- Fuck. That reminds me - I have an old 2007/8 Macbook in the cupboard, one of those black ones. Need to check the battery is ok :Oface_melter
- I just put Ubuntu Mate on a 09' Macbook. It only needed a wifi driver, and everything else worked out of the box.section_014
- It's like a new computer. Not saying it's fast by any means, but it's much quicker than OSX was.section_014

What I wouldn't give for a few grenades to throw into the open balcony door of the flat across the courtyard from me, so that I can finally take out the cunting brat that has blue murder-screaming tantrums at least five times a day, along with his insult-to-human-DNA permissive parents.
Either that, or I'll throw a box of condoms with a Post-Note on it that says 'Plan A', and a metal coat hanger with a Post-It that says 'Plan B' onto their balcony.
Fucking cunts, all of them.
Stop. Fucking. Breeding.

It's very quiet at the studio I freelance for 3 days a week, so I've decided I need to give Sketch (along with the craft and invision integration) a real look. I played with sketch on a few projects a couple of years ago and really liked it overall, but it was buggy and none of the developers I was working with were interested so I inevitably went back to creative suite. A few years on it look like most of the major bugs have been ironed out and developers I work with are now interested.
I spoke with the directors a while back and they wanted me, on downtime, to do a complete redesign of Yahoo from wireframes to completion, including all invision prototyping and style guidelines along the way. To have as a baseline for how all projects should be done and for junior designers to use and work from. Fucking perfect project for me... A complete redesign of a content rich site with absolutely no client input at all. Heaven!
Anyway, now I'm learning sketch again I thought this would be a good time to do that project, but after a while mulling over what I'm going to do I decided I'd rather do a Google homepage redesign, more so a dashboard, with all your google services and relevant items brought in as cards on a google homepage. Another fucking perfect project, that I'd genuinely be happy to do for fun in my own free time.
Spoke with the directors again and they like the idea but also want to see a redesign of Yahoo. I think they want to put these out once they're done and hope they go viral. I'm not so sure about that side of things but I basically now have the next couple of months getting paid to work on literally two of the most perfect projects I could think of, without any external input on design or UI, while figuring out new software that I've been meaning to for a while now.
Happy days!
- Sounds fun! Enjoy the downtime!mugwart
- You'll love sketch set. Also look into Zeplin for seamless transitions to developers.kona
- Yea it's great, have spent the last 3 hours in it and feel fairly comfortable already, though it's not changed too much from when I first learnt it. Less buggy!set
- Will check out Zeplin, thanks!set
- It's taking shape -

Vent time:
Two weeks ago I was involved in one of the biggest pitch opportunities of my career.It was a battle between ours and one another agency.
Our team spent a shit ton of time and energy on this masterpiece and then we absolutely killed it during the pitch.
We were supposed to get the yay or nay last week, but heard nothing. Uncertainty began to sink in.
Later in the week, we ran into the guy to whom we pitched while we were on campus for another project. He pulled a masterful pokerface as we peppered him for a sign.
Just got the call this morning that the entire budget for this campaign was cut. So no campaign. We don't win it and neither does our competitor. Total bummer.
Bothers me that we did all this spec work and spent all this time for something that will never happen and that the client may have already known that.
I guess the good news is we impressed the right people and maybe something else will come out of this.
- i went through this for several years of my career. until i went in-house.dirtydesign
- in house is sooooo boring tho....pango
- yep - inhouse was way more boring than agency, working on 1 brand week in week out is soul destroying esp is a weak brand.fadein11

Applied to a design job at a corporation that says they'll do background checks.
What does that mean? Criminal?
- they just want to check your education, previous workplaces, and your jail-time is legit, and if it checks out they will call some of your friends.sted
- they also check your likes on instagram nowadaysuan
- often times they take your info but never run it to save money. i have some minor stuff on my record. Sony does background checks. it meant nothing.shellie
- it was kid stuff btw. got caught wheat pasting as a teen. it would be kinda dumb to not hire based on art adjacent crimes lolshellie
- 'wheat pasting' sounds like a euphemism for something quite horrid.detritus
- NOT IN MY HAIR!
NOT IN MY HAIR!detritus - GoogleBennn
- background checks are normalmonospaced
- in this industries production part background check means checking your education and some of the previous workplaces.sted
- higher positions like finance and network level operative it is common practice to do a criminal bg check and drug test. But as Shelie says this means nothigsted
- just don't lie.sted
- I thought the whole point was to verify your addresses and criminal record.monospaced
- also, it's NOT common to do drug tests in finance positions ... can you imagine how many top people would be turned away?monospaced
- @WPP there is a drug test for cfo.sted
- THey want to make sure you did do drugs.pango

Just started learning guitar starting with practicing my scales. Fuck my fingers hurt. And pressing down on the strings hurts too. Do you get used to that?
I have a new found respect to those who can shred.
- wait till you build up calluses on your fingertips... then you won't feel a thing. You will have to go through blisters first though :( Hang in there!PonyBoy
- ^
and the hand wrist...relax that, don't play to tense...smooth.oey - thanks oey good advice im probably doing that wrongshellie
- blisters on my fingertips? fucking hell!shellie
- don't pick them / pop them either :/ Just let them come and turn callus... couple weeks and you'll be through itPonyBoy
- power through it, you absolutely get used to it -- no more blisters if you keep it upGnash
- You'll get used to it in no time. Here's a pro tip: Learn barre chords straight away. It will be a bitch, and take forever to get good at.section_014
- F learning a bunch of open chord based songs. Being able to barre, and move your other fingers is the #1 thing to master imo.section_014
- i'm learning bass and smoke weed, maybe we could start a band. i like shabazz palaces. what about you?oey

It's impossible to create lists in instagram and they show the timeline in unordered time stamp so we're missing lots of posts.
Twitter have lists where we can add, for example, all the accounts of journalists, so when you click that list you see the timeline of only those accounts.
Like instagram, Facebook deleted their lists feature.
That really sucks, is there any apps or Chrome addon to manage that?

Just signed up to take the MSF (motorcycle safety course) next month. Had a litte RM80 for a short while 20+ years ago, but haven't touched anything but a bicycle since.
Nervous and excited to try it out. Not sure what inspired me to get into it exactly, but I've watched a freakin' million youtube vids on bikes over the past week or so. Probably get a Hayabusa as my first bike (jk!).
- ah! that's suze you key...I was wtf is that hay abusa you fucking pervert...you'll need good hands for that. be careful!oey
- ah...that was a joke...oey
- get on it section!
