Hunches and gut feelings. Dreams in waking life.
I organize the Eurovision Song Contest, but exclusive to Lemmy, it’s called Lemmyvision !

And https://www.editionslibertalia.com/ which is an awesome anarchist publisher with mostly french books and/or translations
Libertalia, an independent publishing house created in 2007, publishes around 20 books per year. Since 2018, Libertalia has also been a neighborhood bookstore, at 12 rue Marcelin-Berthelot, in Montreuil, nearby Paris. At our level, modestly, we try to build happy days.
Yep, I just responded to BCsven who had the same concern, usually this works for someone starting out, but I definitely upped my prices as I got more experience
One issue with my industry is that it’s very easy to get into, so the job market tends to be saturated, but at the same time it’s also easy to stand out once you’ve got the skills
I’m a graphic designer so technically not an artist, but sometimes people ask how much they should charge for their design services, it’s a great question because there are many ways to go about it.
What i usually recommend, though, is local minimum wage per hour worked on the project times 2
; it’s straightforward and usually fair to both the designer and the client, the former just needs to adjust the final price to take into account the cost of operating their business.
I’m saying this because it puts into perspective the cost of (design) art. For example, when I was a student, I drew a really nice shark, it took me about 40 hours. With my maths, it would cost around 500€.
I’m certain my drawing isnt worth half a thousand, no matter how proud I am of it, and how beautiful it could be for a potential buyer. But thinking about art prices in terms of remuneration per time spent sometimes help understanding why a certain piece is expensive.
The problem with this, is that it does not take into account the effort spent on that piece, among other things. In the end, an art piece value remains deeply personal and it reflects on the price a person is willing to pay.
I once charged 2k for a week worth of work on a boring corporate 60 page report/document, that’s way overpriced, but that company was in a rush because it was in summer and all their designers were in vacations, so they were willing to pay that much for my urgent help.
I’m doing my part
Try some of Matt Elliott, it’s going to crush you
I’m 10 years younger and I feel the same, granted, I still game a lot, but I find myself more excited about the ideas and potential of a game, than actually playing it.
I think it’s a normal thing, you gotta get tired of a hobby after so many years, and it’s a healthy thing to cycle it out and pick up something else, and maybe come back to it some time later
Food !
I will run it again don’t worry! ❤️
I ran !lemmyvision@jlai.lu which is Eurovision but for Lemmy, it was fun ! I’m thinking of making a special Lemmyvision event in the upcoming months, but otherwise expect a second edition next year 🤗
I remember making fun of it in some discord, imagine spending so much r&d into some RGB gadget instead of contributing to research during COVID, the only certificates they had were for electrical products, none for health stuff
This is from the E3 (or whatever that events name was) announcement
Also known as proto Edriseur v2.4
If Microsoft gifts me a mobo that supports their new tmp2 or whatever then I’ll switch, until then I’m sadly stuck on w10, oh the misery 🙃
I tried Saber (https://f-droid.org/packages/com.adilhanney.saber/) for a while with my fat fingers and it worked good enough for my use case, idk if it fits your needs
Here’s a freaky one : Jaguar > Cow > Giraffe
