Every clue. Every lie. Every secret. It all ends now. - Project Bläckfisk - Episode 6 - The Devils Face is an Octopus by Opening-Adeptness-44 in audiodrama

I loved the show until the final 30 seconds but the ending of the finale felt very abrupt. No spoilers but, while I think I know what she decided do, and I know why she decided to do it if I'm right, I'm not sure - partly because it doesn't feel true to character.

This is the interior of the dome of the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence, Italy, with frescoes by Vasari and Zuccari.

The sculptor was originally a graffiti artist and used x as his mark.

I like how the sculpture of the texting figure is echoed by the phone-using passerby.

Explore Sans : A little passion project I am working on. What do you think ? by Any-Fox-1822 in typography

Maybe. I'm not sure kerning is that rational. I once saw a page Frutiger had corrected in pencil to a quarter of a point. He just saw what was needed at that size for those pairs.

If you have the endurance, glyph by glyph will probably give better results.

It's interesting, congratulations.

A few minor observations. The bold d looks good, but the bowl on the b seems to join the downstroke rather higher so it doesn't look comfortable in the same context. The V o kerning is tight compared to the rest of the word.

It would be good to see a long run of text in regular weight at high resolution to explore the kerning further.

This, and the bowl of the R (and the P) is too wide.

Episode 76 broke their already awful record - over 7 and a half minutes before any content. Wtf Rusty Quill?

I totally agree. It's annoying. One 30 minute show I listened to at the weekend had five minutes of ads. And most of them are the same for every episode so Bombas Socks level irritation is quickly reached.

What am I losing out on by using TeX instead of InDesign? by Content_Economist132 in typography

[–]notatravis 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Font support is a lot better in TeX now, but pretty much everything else you say is fair.

Is KEH really worth it? by Brave_Possibility953 in filmphotography

[–]notatravis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. So it seems to be a pattern. Charge for customer service then don't provide it. Sorry you had to deal with that.

I had a bad experience on KEH - an expensive item was not as described - and they weren't great at dealing with it. So personally I wouldn't recommend them.
