@sand should've followed the instructions

@sand this worked great in my feed

@sand
what industry is the company you work at in, if I may ask?
The last full-time job I had was at an advertisenment agency, where out of 30 people 18 were managers (seriously, I counted), and just two designers -- me and another guy. I got laid off after a few years, because obviously having two designers is just excessive, especially for a creative agency

@sand yeah, sorry to hear that. I'm gonna bet the company quite obviously needs another in-house designer due to all the workload, but is unable to recognise the value designers bring and actually considers downsizing the design department.

Were you not able to update even to Catalina from 2019?

@sand heheh. it's like playing dnd with a character who can't switch weapons and attack in one action

Do you have to use Adobe? Have you tried Affinity? It's less demanding on your hardware

@sand to be fair, it's holding up pretty well, I'm impressed. Can't really run Blender or After Effects, but Affinity software works just fine, considering that I constantly have 9 Chrome windows open with dozens of tabs each :blobcatgoogly:

@sand
high five! Mine is 2015 Pro with a broken screen (it does not close) and a 7cm thick vertical line running across the display that makes all colors slightly brighter

A couple of weeks ago I finished a beast of a project.

The interactive installation (titled InStability) is an artistic endeavor to demonstrate how seismic stations in Iceland detect earthquakes.

Visitors are invited to touch the map, triggering "earthquakes", and observe how LEDs, representing seismic and GPS stations, light up as the seismic waves propagate across Reykjanes peninsula.
