English ▸ Spanish creative translator. I probably translated one of the apps on your phone. Other specializations: pro audio / music, transcreation, IT.
In Almería.
Advantages of being a know-it-all: noticing the symbol the client used to indicate diameter (Ø) is not the correct one (⌀).

The one they used is called Latin Capital Letter O With Stroke; the correct one is called Diameter Sign. Also a perk of having the Character Viewer readily available in macOS.

Talking about geeky/nerdy things, how satisfying is creating shortcuts for the desktop with custom icons, and also adding a keyboard layout reference for when I use a US keyboard? The left icon turns the computer speakers on and off, and the other ones connect to a small Linux server at home.

Hala, a instalar debian a cholón.

… that worked on X11 on the Mac. I wish I remember its name. I only have the edited Illustrator files and fonts, but not a reference to the software I used.
Anyway, #FOSS FTW!

The geekiest thing I’ve done in years, maybe decades: Install xQuarzt (a X11/X Window replacement for modern macOS), then install FreeRDP through homebrew, configure a Fedora Linux machine on my LAN to accept incoming connections, and access its desktop remotely from the Mac.
Phew.

Now working on her hair. It’s scary, and I’m learning as I go. I’m happy so far.

All right, I did a lot this morning: Reduced the right eye, drew her left eye, corrected the tilt of the mouth, adjusted her subtle smile, reinforced her left cheek.
I’m way happier with the resemblance of this portrait. What do you think?

Oh, yes, this is already looking promising 🤞🙄🤞

I believe I now have the proportions mostly nailed, pending the mouth and eyes, heheh 😙😅. The face was too narrow on her right side.

Seriously, though, I’ve been able to find and fix many mistakes, and am now approaching the rendering stage. [sweats]

Bueno, puestos a pasarse, mejor hacerlo en condiciones.

Ayer fuimos a Las Menas de Serón por si podíamos ver la nieve, y nos pusimos morados. Es la primera vez que vemos la rayita del negativo en el termómetro del coche 🥶.

Am I crazy for considering art as a professional alternative to translation, as companies left and right throw themselves into the arms of AI slop for their linguistic needs?

Still not getting proportions right, but I don’t mind failing. Just getting away from the grid method feels like a great step.

Fuck Sam Altman to hell and back. The same two RAM modules I bought for €136 in late November have almost TRIPLED in price.

I’m probably late to the party, but we just watched ‘Bugonia’ and, when I added it to my diary in @letterboxd.social, I was greeted with this hilarious captcha screen:
