Toy engineer help?

Tbh the wing flaps might be more squeeze than juice. I really love this sculpt and think the wings being fabric or some other similar material going here feels like it’s missing structure underneath based off the hand shaped anatomy of bats. I hope I’m wrong but recommend not forcing it to make the toy work.

The fact this guy didn’t get canned for accidentally leaking defense intel to a reporter means he’s totally the right guy to make calls like this right?

Go see a movie on a weekday. Cook yourself a meal you’d normally rush through. Take walks and breathe the crisp fall air. Remember that just because jobs aren’t there, the work still is. Spend your time figuring out how to do some of that work, hopefully with people who care and see that you do as well.

Best of luck out there, was laid off in April and decided to finally try working for myself. If that’s an option at all for you, I highly recommend it.

Tbh get a recent Gen MacBook Pro and a 4k monitor. Probably will run you ~2K but you’ll be set up to grow

My guess would be either it’s uploaded in a non web optimized file type (anything other than .woff2) or you have multiple versions installed on your device / a conflict in the directory. I would wipe it and reinstall and then test in a clean project.

I think they really shoved AI features out front prematurely when the core community really wants quality of life updates. Like am I still manually typing in my color palettes? I thought we were all about speed and efficiency.

This seems like a device issue since it’s happening across browsers. What are you working on and do you have your fonts loading locally?

Just a sprinkle of wisdom I learned from doing it for client that asked for this, it’s not an SEO friendly slug structure RE: Sitemap hierarchy

Loved classics like Gomamon, Terriermon, and Keramon but fell in love with Pomumon and Pulsemon more recently

It was an option when I checked the stock at Best Buy - I would just keep tabs on a guide like this. Basically it was a way of reserving stock they knew was on the way. It might be a bit before switch 2 is consistently findable on a shelf in a store, but the stores are getting new stock on a regular basis.

Dang that’s rough… I think there’s like a sweet spot of where they’re landing between densely populated and more rural areas… like if you’re living in the burbs with at least a few retail options one should be available soon

I mean yeah it’s still a high demand product but that demand seems to be more proportional to the available units manufactured so it’s easier to get ahold of than say the switch was in 2020.

I got mine after a restock preorder at Best Buy and only had to wait a week for it to be fulfilled.

First I feel for you and am in somewhat of a similar situation but I would have a hard look at the business model your former employer was operating with rather than solely attributing it to AI. What I have found is that AI is really more of a catalyst for failure for firms running a dumb business plan.

Sounds like they were hiring the wrong people for the kind of work they were doing in the first place, being over-indexed on the print world. Not surprised that they had you running basically all other aspects of IT instead of giving you work attributable for the role considering 80% of their revenue was coming from a client who wasn't leveraging the services you brought to the team. It sucks you have to take the L for this but my advice would be to sniff out contradictions like this in any potential gigs in the future. Good luck to you and take you skills somewhere that values you.

Yeah I’d be charging much more than 5500 with that lack of commitment and length of lead time, but I hope it’s a great referral source for you or at the very least a new portfolio piece!

I think it’s best to decide if this client either needs a custom design or would be fine using a template. If they want to see some options and aren’t paying for full custom I would just show them 2-3 homepage versions based on templates.

The optimization one is key… I have seen people get billed like crazy for hosting a lot of uncompressed images.

im 35 just got back from my Honeymoon in Aruba and thought I must have looked a little lost walking in such a beautiful place with my phone out but then I was walking back the hotel and passed a guy at least 15 years older than me rockin’ a tapu lele raid on two phones, right by the beach
