I recall someone wrote in to nintendo power asking about that ad and they revealed it was actually a plastic shell, pretty neat

not sure if you’re joking/im getting whooshed but that was just a giant plastic shell. I know because I remember some kid wrote into Nintendo power about it and they were like “no it’s plastic. cool though, huh?”

well, same difference. they had to make a plastic shell shaped like an ice cube and put a snes inside and put water around and set up the shot and take a real photo instead of just making a dumb rendering.

relatedly, i remember reading a behind the scenes food photo shoot article as a kid and ice cubes were gelatin so they'd stay cubes for longer shoots

Doin' mad amounts of aluminum business cards today, these ones are my "cheap" ones, about the thickness of a playing card, and I charge $60 for 40 of them, while my "expensive" ones are roughly as thick as an AMEX Black or one of those Amazon credit cards and I charge $75 for 40:



I also had a young military guy hit me up for some coasters for him and his low ranking friends, I gave him a deal of 6 coasters for $50, because long long ago I was also a young padawan in the E-4 Mafia spending money on dumb poo poo:

which is fascinating! the craft is impressive (maybe scammy, but still)

the article was about fast food photos, so both the photo and the real food could fall in the same category

I've never really used it but the shape and travel of the keys was great for a laptop. i have an x1 carbon v7 now i think and the v3 had a much better keyboard. gently caress you lenovo

still love the car though

i got a z13 a few months ago and the keyboard is solidly okay. it's miles better than the 2019 macbook air i had, feels more like my old xps 13, which also was fine for a laptop keyboard.
