I tried to climb a coconut tree this morning to get a coconut,
after about 10 minutes i was chucking rocks at the coconuts,
I ended up just buying one.- the kids use drones.BabySnakes

So as the lockdown is starting to slacken, I was thinking I needed a new look for when I finally get a jab and emerge, blinking back into the new world. I was thinking I’d go full Monty Don:

I can't figure out discord. I don't know if it's terrible design or being in my 40s.
- Me too, things just seem to disappear way down the timeline.PhanLo
- I'm trying to try Midjourney, but even the screenshot for how to join the newbie thread doesn't even make sense.i_monk
- the new mIRCpablo28
- And it keeps saying my account is unclaimed after I've logged in. WTF.i_monk
- Lol, i_monk, I'm totally with you on the midjourney discord! It's entirely complicated compared to my usual discord usage :)Nairn
- Discord has given me so much happiness. Fucking rules. Yeah, I guess it's hard at first.cherub
- Sorted the account thing: every time you click an invite link it creates a new account instead of checking if you already have one. FFS.i_monk
- Also found the newbie thread. How stupid is discord that a dynamically updating post will scroll off your feed before it finishes?i_monk
- ya if you're not logged in on the browser and clicked a invite, it will ask you to created a new account.pango
- as for confusing server. blame that on the person organizing each channel/thread.pango
- but majority of the time i thing you guys are just old.pango
- Discord is great, iam over there all day long. I wish QBN would be there but it didnt work.Bennn
- lolNairn
- irc forever!sted
- <sted ^pablocanoe
- Yup me too and I'm pretty sure it's me being 48YakuZoku
- I won't even bother. I just tried to use Snap for the first time in years. What a disaster of design and functionality!formed
- Lol this is like a thread of old people talking about how hard e-mail isnb
- ^ lolpango
- Signs I'm really old: What _is_ discord?SimonFFM
- @formed Snap IS fucking wrong UXgrafician
- @simon A platform for people to create forum with emphasis on voice/video call.
most features free but advance features only for subscribers.pango - no ads. no selling your info.pango
- lot of gamers use their voice call feature instead of ingame voice call feature. cuz it has been more stable and clear.pango
- I vaguely remember I created an account once, but could not join any groups, because everything is by invite?drgs
- Anyway, for someone like me who has been crawling internet on my hands and feet for 30 years, having seen all different types of messengersdrgs
- ICQ, MSN, AIM, Facebook messenger, Google talk, Skype, you have that feeling that Discord too will be replaced with something else, maybe even within 5 yearsdrgs
- So why invest time into thisdrgs
- because it's not 5 years yet. there is absolutely no incentive to join if you dont already have a group that interests you.pango
- i like it cuz you can use other people's code or write your own code to do some cool stuffs. i mainly hang out there just for the gaming and art community.pango
- Email is faster than sending a letter through the post officenb
- never used Slack? Discord is pretty’s much the same UIernexbcn
- 38 here and it seems effortless to pick up new tech atm. Not looking forard to 10 years from now.kalkal
- My issue with most new apps (not really "tech" is it?) is I don't see the point of it. But in discord's case I hate the UI... & don't see the point of it.i_monk
- it's just another forum. that's it. you dont have to use it. there are so many variations of things in the world. why does this one bother you?pango
- re: it's badly designedi_monk
- :/ not sure. i navigates just fine.pango
- the midjourney discord ..channel.. is just particularly dense, if you're not accustomed to it. Discord itself is pretty clean and easy, despite Pango's efforts.Nairn
- (He made one of the QBN channels quite opaque by adding loads of cruft, over-complicating it... bastard! :) )Nairn
- How to see a list of servers Im on? I have joined the QBN channel, but when I revisit Discord at a later time, its gone...drgs
- They should just be listed by iconm down the left hand side of your interface, no? I use the web interface, but I think the app is the same, no?Nairn
- The invite links you handed out were temporary
https://i.imgur.com/…drgs - Pango sent me a proper one. To add on the topic of terrible design: Not once during the process did it say the invite was temporarydrgs
- You have to google this bs and read through hundreds of similar problems until you find out whats wrongdrgs
- I didn't send invites - that was either palimpsest or bennnnn. There are 2 QBN channels, with only me in one of them, making it the better one.Nairn
- https://www.qbn.com/…drgs
- oh. haha - never trust a goddamn thing i say,Nairn
- https://www.qbn.com/…Nairn
- No, the invite itself link is permament, but it grants temporary membership. I assume it is possible to create temporary invites for permanent membershipdrgs
- permanent invites for permanent membership and temporary invites for temporary membership, I love Discord!drgs
- I'm confused every time I go on and there's tons of messages. where to look first?mapleT
- Telegram > Discordgarbage
- LOL I've never ran into this temporary member invite thing cuz nobody ever sent anyone that. Till now.pango
- mapleT
this is the notification inbox. you can start there.
https://i.imgur.com/…pango - naim. dud there are only 1 info channel, 1 log channel and 1 chatting channel. it's not that complicated lolpango
- i just checked. invite generation was permitted for everyone. so whoever sent drgs the tem member ship invite was a troll lol. i've removed everyone permitpango
- to create new invites. just use the invite link in the info channel. no more confusion.
LOLpango - Who are we kidding, none of us can figure out Discorddrgs
- you guys are great as beta testers :P
running into problems no one i know runs into.pango - k just looked at Midjourney. maybe cuz i have experience with discord. seen pretty straight forward to me.pango
- but yes because they have so much traffic activities going on, it's hard to keep up what's going on.pango
- to makie it easy to navigate, you can mute the server notification and set it to only get pinged when you're mentioned.pango
- then use the notification inbox to jump to the post you were mentioned.pango

I work with some 22-26 y/o fellows that never studied editorial design. I mean, they put up layouts for digital stuff like commerce and landing pages, but have NEVER had an infatuation with Emigre, Raygun, The Face, i+d, Print, or shit. They just fucking exist and make me feel old and grumpy.

I just talked to my friends 17-year old. He told me his favorite bands were Nirvana, Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam and Stone Temple Pilots.
Those were my favorite bands at that age. Is that a sign I'm getting old? Shouldn't he be listening to Gersploosh and Skizzglotch and other bands I don't know about, making me feel old? That's the usual situation when asking teenagers about their music taste.
I don't feel old, I feel bemused.
- I googled those bands...oey_oey
- lol @ Gersploosh ... nice South Park refRamanisky2
- The kid has really good taste in music ... props to him.Ramanisky2
- I still like those bands.jagara
- I asked for a stone temple pilots album, purple, for Christmas in 1994shellie
- good music doesnt age does it?robthelad
- Well the best hip hop is still from the early 90s too_niko
- You've got a ways to do! Those were big bands when I was getting out of undergrad...formed
- I did the same back when I was a young’n ... Moms record collection, The Beatles, ABBA, and Pink Floyd, Bee Gee’s and even Boney M.Ramanisky2

- Inviting throwed stones in more than one way: I only appreciated Nirvana in my 30s, and it was only the major key renditions.garbage
- It makes them sound like Polaris and it's great. The rest of those bands are shit.garbage
- https://www.youtube.…garbage
- ^ You’re telling me Alice In Chains is shit. Nahhh son.Ramanisky2
- My 13 yo son loves Nirvana, Weezer, Pearl Jam, Depeche Mode, The Smiths and The Cure. Possibly because those are some of his mothers and my favorite bands.fooler
- @rams They were always on the shit radio stations, and they sounded like Creed to me. That whole genre is not my bag at all. To each their own.garbage
- ^ I’ll respect that.Ramanisky2
- A century of commercial recorded music has gradually eliminated any connection between music and a broader culture. It's now just hyper-individualism.nuggler
- my kids are now about 21 and 18... and both love The Cure, Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Cocteau Twins etc etc... good music llves forever i guess :)exador1
- Nirvana major key renditions in the 90s? All of their albums were in the 90s. You don’t appreciate them? None of those bands are shit.monospaced

- Also pretty ripe of somebody who uses the word "retard" as an insult to call me a puppy. Seems like a grade-schooler, but thankfully I'm not.garbage
- Just throwing my 2$ in here, but Gersploosh and Skizzglotch are both amazing band names. Cracks me the fuck up at the comments in here! Internet is serious!lvl_13
- Gersploosh is an amazing name. And to be really clear, I'm not angry at all. It's just kinda funny that it takes a minute of my day for him to go ballistic.garbage

I get upset when woke people say every woman is beautiful and could appear on a magazine cover.
No. Not everyone is pretty. This has nothing to do with discrimination. Not every man is handsome and not every food tastes good.
This is all highly subjective and there are people who can run faster than others. But we should all get respected and treated well.
Still no cover for everyone.
- Everyone is beautiful but not in the way that is suitable for every magazine cover. A different magazine might be suitable.nb
- What is a beauty magazine other than a collection of photos, articles and ads that all fit together and work as a collection?nb
- I say good art direction can bring anyone (on a cover) to look good. models, actors are easier because they know how to pose and what‘s expected.uan

- Biologically humans are programmed to find attractive certain types. Culture adds another level of complexity.Chimp

You should do a series on QBNers... :)Nairn - I don’t know about the rest of you but I do my best drawings when I’m on a phone with clients. You just draw and not overthink and it’s always amazing_niko
- Just fliows from the subconscious. But when I try to draw other times , when I’m focused on my work, it’s often stiff and shitty_niko
- You should call clients more.katznteddy

I went through so many of these damn pens...fun when they worked, not so much when they didn't. Nothing can really replace ink-on-mylar, collaging photocopies, spray mounting.
(not mine, thesis advisor's early work)
(not mine either, early work from a professor)Good times. Still have tubes of drawings, somewhere.
- I had this set as kid.utopian
- I got a nice Rotring set from my parents in my 18th anniversary. It was the most expensive thing my parents ever bought to me.oey
- I used the Rotring brand ones, 0,2, 0,5 and 0,8 sizes. But first, I've used those during delineation classes: https://bit.ly/2OCD1…OBBTKN

- The were outrageously expensive. We'd cringe when a prof would require ink-on-mylar, but they did look great. Oh, almost forgot..electric erasers!formed
- I couldn't afford that until I found a used one. Massive difference, it's like having a fast PC for rendering.formed
- yup! had that exact same kitBennn
- If I'd bother to set up an acct somewhere to post photos here, I'd post my ink drawing I did of the Space Shuttle back in 86. Loved those pens.lemmy_k
- super drawings !neverscared
- still have the copics I bought in university. they still work after 20 years...SimonFFM
- i'll upvote on your ever getting them to work. mine never did effectively. #rulingpenMrAbominable
