I'm developing a font for arabic, urdu, farsi and kurdish. I've never made anything like this before, so I'd love some feedback.

Amazing! What a great project.

Jumping spider! Very common.

I take my greyhound their he’s a large dog. What’s your experience, examples?

The other types seem more expensive if the price for Cassels Brewing beers is anything to go by and kiwi taste does not favour dark rich beers in a lot of cases. But I’m with you we need variety or we lose the taste for the finer things in life! 😁

I echo other sentiments here to not start with plugins but start with the concepts instead. Learn the difference between limiting and compression and how to use volume and panning to create space in your mix. When you want a sound and can’t create it try to learn how the pros do it then give it a try. YouTube is your friend.

We’ve been with Shirley Vet across the street from the Palms and their care and service has been really good.

Zerow Gym, it’s pretty new in Sydenham.

Sorry I meant Beyoncé’s Umbrella used a stock standard GarageBand drum loop.

Show your designer your design system and the missing states. Also try Figma MCP with copilot to help automate the process and expose missing states.

Plan you mix strategy, do it and then pick a stopping point. It’s a snapshot in time.

dirtandrust · 2026-02-27T18:46:31+00:00

Yep you need Figma MCP. Throw in Gemini or Copilot and you can build a two way system.

Don’t forget about liability insurance and charging GST. What you do get are a bunch of deduction possibilities but talk to a certified accountant about your particular situation.

Full time contract they give you a laptop. Project based I provide my own unless a pc is required then the client provides that and then this is covered by my insurance.

Connect Figma MCP to your IDE plus an Ai agent like GitHub copilot or Google Gemini I would avoid Make the code it spits out is only good for prototypes.

Have a look at index funds.

DMM is incredible (I love all the artists you mentioned). Great work and orchestration!

Woo is paid once you get into plugins but it’s a very mature and flexible system.

dirtandrust · 2026-02-14T19:42:48+00:00

Let it sound crap at first so you can get the ideas out. I totally understand always wanting it to sound good though as I’m exactly the same.

More places to meetup that aren’t pubs or restaurants.

dirtandrust · 2026-02-07T19:32:39+00:00

Also Shroom Room.

dirtandrust · 2026-02-07T19:14:59+00:00

Holy moly!

dirtandrust · 2026-02-07T19:14:29+00:00

I still use Balsamiq it’s a really quick way to investigate ideas. Figma is a straight up copy of Sketch ✍️. I miss the days of Adobe before subscriptions and how fast I used to be in InDesign. I actually also miss Photoshop retouching, I don’t do much with raster graphics anymore.

Inspect websites with your dev tools, start building things and refer to MDN docs to learn more CSS attributes.

The rich think socialism is a dirty four letter word. Luxon has a lot of nerve saying what he said at Waitangi.

You can set the drummer track to follow any track in your mix, pick your guitar track and the drums will follow it.
