carry on then posted:uhh i don't know where that image is from but they're still using the 8-bar variant everywhere i've seen it yeah, the solid one was the initial redesign, then rand did the the 13 then 8 variants. someone put the selectric-era logo last lol Internet Janitor posted:god, i hate this logo 'hold on to your ties, fellas, i'm adding lines' 'oh wait, too much' his doodle for the lines was a pretty good corporate commentary: a guy in prison stripes next to the lined logo edit: his ford logo would have aged so badly they'd have redesigned it in a decade lol. he could really go up his own rear end about simple shapes Agile Vector fucked around with this message at 14:10 on Mar 1, 2023 |

It's some real elementary school level poo poo. "Haha eye for I and bee for B. These are great and clever even though they have no relation whatsoever to the company and are literally the first things that popped into my head. Okay now for the M. hmmmmmm....hmmm.....hmmm okay that one's hard I'll just use an M from their old logo. Perfect. I've done it again"

one of my old professors published a book of IBM corporate posters a couple years ago and they're pretty cool tho. There are a couple of Paul Rand designs in it iirc, but the vast majority is non-randian https://www.visualmemoranda.com/about

the washing machines in the laundry room are now permanently broken in terms of accepting cards since the loving wifi network they rely on is down, so i had to download the app (which authorizes a wash using bluetooth). it made me make an account and now i get loving washing machine spam multiple times a day. the future is horrible.quote:When gathering laundry, it can be easy to overlook your sheets. As the Sleep Foundation notes, it only takes a few days for sheets to accumulate dirt, dead skin cells, body oils, and more—all of which attract dust mites. They recommend washing sheets and pillowcases weekly. at least when you make an account they give you five bucks of laundry money, and as far as i can tell all you need to make a new account is a functioning email address, so i guess laundry's free from now on

i don't wash my sheets weekly but i have four sets (more, really) and i do change them that often. do a big load every few weeks. clean beds feel so nice and are so easy to achieve.

we change them every two weeks because chihuahuas lose more hair than seems possible. i think at the end of the month you could build an entirely new eggy out of what he sheds
