Oh no! I just unpacked and tried on the sweatshirt. It's a different hue of green than on the site (olive), the writing is HUGE compared to my mockup so I need to stretch it out to get the message read, and lower on the sweatshirt. In short, a fail.
I used to create custom apparel at a local shop (always support your local artisans) but it went out of business after COVID, sigh.
I need to find a new one before FOSDEM. I'm on a mission to get this made 🥲
@_elena Not the same, but I can offer this. (Use "Redeem" button for discount)🙂 https://tlmb.myspreadshop.co.uk/fediverse?idea=68999152348a557e41a04c6d

@_elena Yikes. Write the supplier. They should make it right.

Oooooh my custom made #TheFutureIsFederated sweatshirt has arrived at a pickup point! Going to retrieve it later today and I hope it turned out ok.
I intend to wear it at #FOSDEM on the big day for the Social Web talks.
All fingers and toes crossed it looks good and fits well. Otherwise I have two other Fedi t-shirts as backups 😅
@_elena Looks cool! Where can we order? 😄

@_elena @UnterDruck is a great guy, maybe he'd be willing to leave his LibreCalc sheet and help? Pretty sure we could hustle up enough interest for a preorder like the Antifa shirt!

@phillycodehound Seth! Thank you for this. You inspired me to write to them - it's a big company, I didn't think I could get anywhere.
Well, the customer support representative was the sweetest and says she will send me a free replacement (express shipping) with the corrections I requested. And if even that doesn't live up to the original mockup, I can get a reimbursement or a voucher. Stellar customer support.
I should get the replacement 8 days before I leave for FOSDEM. Fingers crossed!

@_elena will you host a conference at the Fosdem?
@sinux I won't be speaking, just there for interesting talks and to connect IRL with many fedi friends, devs and advocates

@sinux thanks! a perk of not speaking is that I can have a stress-free experience, just enjoy the talks and the company 😊

@_elena do you want to talk to a French screen printing artist? Not sure if she can deliver on such short notice.. but she probably can build a frame and get ready to print.. could even customize existing clothes, she did it for the @caravantour !

We don’t want them to work for free. We want to pay them more money.

@munin Our Farseers saw this was the way it would transpire. If we are to defeat the forces of Chaos, we must not allow such technology to take hold. Not even the Mechanicum would accept that obscene a machine spirit.

given how I've been using "it's like the whole Adeptus Mechanicus appeasing-the-machine-spirit thing" to describe LLM-attainted software, this is fucking hilarious to me

@munin It's really a gleaming light in the fuckery that somehow GAMES WORKSHOP of all organizations managed to land on the right side of this.

@kottke re: paywalls, Dave Winer (@davew ) has proposed an "EZPass" system, similar to what we use to toll roads and turnpikes, which would pay per article with opt-in by the user at the time of the charge if I remember. I think it would be a good web thing to work that out

@alephoto85 grazie! Io mi ero fatto convincere da uno dei kit su aliexpress, ma non serve nemmeno, basta una matassina di cotone e un uncinetto…internet offre un sacco di spunti e alla fine diventa una droga😅
-
@kottke I'm not offended by paywalls. I just don't access the media hidden by them. And in any case, don't presume to tell me not to complain. It's not my fault if your business model doesn't work.
