    Punches for websites that you land on and immediately have a 'newsletter' overlay ----- but you can't close it!!!

    ...because the fucking 'cookies' overlay at the page bottom is taking z-index priority.

    • Signs getting old, I miss the days when you landed on a website, and that was it. Nothing to close and get off from the page.shapesalad
    • At last popup windows of 17 years ago could be blocked with a popup blocker.shapesalad
    • Is there a signup/login/newslet... with us overlay blocker?shapesalad

    I'm not sure who gets the punches...

    A. The local shop that sells the product for $220 retail but was 'kind enough' to send me a 40% coupon that I could use toward said product

    B. Amazon for having the exact product at normal retail of $110 which could eventually put the local shop out of biz

    • C. The local independent shop that has shit for inventory making you regret wasting your time going to their store at all. And he’s the most expensive too.monospaced

    Tonys Chocolonely:

    Ingredients:
    sugar, dried whole milk, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, emulsifier (soya lecithin)

    £3.60 for 180g of mostly Sugar.

    You can get 90% Lindt for £1.60 per 100g. Which is mostly chocolate and not sugar, and still 'FairTrade'.

    • always wondered about those, appealing packaging thospl33nidoru
    • If you want to make money, sell sugar.shapesalad
    • Like selling CrackYakuZoku
    • Just looking at the label you know it’s junk. Design success right there.monospaced
    • It's actually not bad, and of course ss is missing the wood for the trees here, because the company makes what people actually want. Not ss tho, obvs.Nairn
    • Their dark chocolate's ok and caramel sea salt one's quite filthy. https://tonyschocolo…Nairn
    • Personally, I love dark chocolate, but to think that Lindt is some paragon is.. well, it undermines the attempt at pretention.Nairn
    • Pretention? IT'S NOT HOW YOU SAY IT, NAIRN, YOU FUCKPIG. 'Pretension'.

      *undermines own conceits*
      Nairn
    • I’m just saying that the label screams that it is probably not for discerning chocolate connoisseurs, which is a design success. No surprise it’s just sugar.monospaced
    • I'm not sure I agree with that. Also, it's not 'just sugar' as opposed to other brands of comparable quality that are as equally not 'just sugar'.Nairn
    • Label communicates hipster (a meaningless term these days, but),
      hipster = overpriced, but quality
      jagara
    • I eat it sometimes. It's very good. But very also overpriced.jagara
    • wifey loves it and she is a choc freak. i don’t mind the taste, but hate the design.scruffics

    A job I saw on LinkedIn for a:

    'Brand & Motion Designer'

    Requirements:

    Design and create brand assets across both print and digital;
    Lead the design of company digital and physical magazine;
    +4 years creating brand and graphical designs across print and digital;

    ok... but also:
    Experience creating motion graphics;
    Create video and 3D animated videos;

    and

    Experience with Figma,

    Fuck sake, which? What? A jack of everything?

    There's no way you can be great at Figma, at print and digital, a good eye for proper graphic design, working on branding *and* do 3D - not for static work, but motion/video work... which is a beast of a skill to master and learn and keep on top of.

    • No salary range mentioned... but you know it's going to be £35k...shapesalad
    • And provide your own equipment type of shit as it's 100% remote.shapesalad
    • Also must be full insured, available for daily meetings, and the ability to work over weekends and holidays.utopian
    • Sorry to say, but there’s days being able to do it all is not only possible it’s what we expect.monospaced
    • It doesn’t Say you have to be great at figma. Just have some experience. So it wants an experienced brand designer who can do some motion.monospaced
    • If it’s in house then the brand is already established. You wouldn’t be doing brand design as much as just executing campaigns.monospaced
    • Updating the magazine, digital and print, and some video. Standard stuff these days.monospaced
    • Yeah, well, can't they say something like - "ability to figure out and use softwares like Figma or C4D as required on a project by project basis." yes I canshapesalad
    • I've looked at Figma, seems simple. But never had a project where I needed it. But yeah, give me a day and I'm confident I can figure it out, as I can use C4D..shapesalad
    • ... which is far more complex and I have decade of Adobe use.shapesalad
    • I'm say, if you want a designer with good taste, style, eye - then it's super rare that they have the technical ability for complex 3D and big UI projects.shapesalad
    • A few are like that.. but they are at big global brands on a 6 figure salary.shapesalad
    • Not an in-house job, in a small city, in a small european country for a unknown brand.shapesalad
    • Well, I’m one of the big brand guys with a 6 fig salary and I’m expected to do it all and do it well, always with great design at the coremonospaced
    • But fuck figma. That’s for the junior of juniors who we want to do the production work (aka button design)monospaced
    • yeah, see you are at the top big brand company and well paid, that job was in Braga Portugal for a tiny non known company.shapesalad
    • I've been on interviews where the job description doesn't match what the people say in the interview. It's an old job posting no one bothered to update.CyBrainX
    • £35k in Portugal? Good luck getting that muchdmay
    • this is the skillset of most working brand designers i know + a ton more on top. it's just the job, not jack of all trades at allkingsteven

    This vile abomination designed by campbell’s to sell cans of their gelatinous mushroom muck. The word “traditional” was used heavily when it was introduced, and everyone just bought into it. Blows my mind that this somehow slithered its way into thanksgiving and to this day everyone chooses to ignore its awfulness.

    Bad UX

    I'm so pissed off right now. I spent half a day setting up an account at some site and had to wait for a person to generate my username to be able to login and set my password. And had to wait at least few hours for a response each time because things didn't work.

    Then their mobile app do not have the same name as their company/ platform so I spent forever trying to find the damn app in my installed apps list.

    Fucking idiots.

    Someone contacted me about a video editor / motion design job... the amount of stuff listed in the job description, disciplines and areas of expertise...

    It's like asking for a sound designer.
