Tony Tin Nguyen • Feb 18 '19

Your focusing point is excellent, man.

Renan Lourençoni Nobile • Dec 3 '18

There should be a Need for Speed decal like that

Ali Spittel • Dec 1 '18

Love the pattern -- you have a bunch of great ones!

Looks like the heroes are fixing their gaze on the, JS DEV sticker, with the facial expression of, "Need more backup!".

Just so I’m clear, laptop stickers are the tech equivalent of prison tattoos right?

Sung M. Kim • Nov 30 '18

Wow.. now that's a neat lid 😮

Ali Spittel • Nov 30 '18

Oh! These are so different! Very cool!

Danny Perez • Dec 1 '18

LOL @ Saturday the 14th. Took me a minute to get it.

Alex Mourer • Dec 1 '18

Ha. It's a reminder to enjoy time off after putting in a hard day's work.

Brian Hoots • Jul 29 '19

Haha it reminds me of Robot Chicken's Friday the 13th skit!

maxdevjs • Dec 2 '18

Nice... How's the ThinkPad?

Alex Mourer • Dec 2 '18

I like it. It's not a top tier machine but it's solid. No complaints.

Forest Hoffman • Jun 13 '19 • Edited

😂 I eventually did! Liquid error: internal

jess unrein • Nov 30 '18

I just started a new job in September so my sticker game is not quite there yet. Waiting on my dev.to membership stickers to help round it out :)

Ali Spittel • Nov 30 '18

Nice! These are awesome! I have the OSMI one too!

jess unrein • Nov 30 '18

Ed is great! I've gotten to see him speak three times now and I just love the work he does with OSMI.

Ben Halpern • Nov 30 '18 • Edited

I love the central focal-point 😭

jess unrein • Nov 30 '18

I also have a fridge magnet of the custom :cry-blood: emoji. It's one of my favs.

Helen Anderson • Dec 1 '18

Just one :)

yucer • Dec 1 '18

Sometimes simplicity makes the greatest masterpiece.

I like that also in code.

Angela Whisnant • Jun 13 '19

Cool! How do we get the Dev sticker and the GitHub stickers?

Helen Anderson • Jun 13 '19

In the Dev shop :)

I always tell people, "I'm not a real IT person: I don't put stickers on my laptop." That said:

I've never put bumperstickers on my cars
My boss used to yell at me because my cube was so barren that the building's seat-nazi was threatening to reclaim my desk because she thought it was unoccupied
my wife considered it a great victory when I allowed her to buy a painting to put on our otherwise bare walls
I chose my Android's homescreen/launcher because it allowed me to tuck all of my app-icons into drawers
I get genuinely annoyed when people leave icons scattered around a desktop.

Probably some other examples of my spartan aesthetic I could point to. :p

Sdu • Dec 2 '18

Hey, I hope this doesn't appear as spam but would you please review my app thats on Google play. Its my side project, I'm currently using it personally. But I feel it's not battle tested enough. I picked your comment because I related to some points you mentioned

Stefan Hayden 📎 • Nov 30 '18 • Edited

ooo posted on Twitter but just saw this post! This is a Dell XPS 15 that my daughter poored a whole cup of coffee on and it still works!

oh hi mark 👋 • Dec 1 '19

That’s why you shouldn’t let your daughter drink coffee ;) 😉😏

Sung M. Kim • Nov 30 '18 • Edited

The devlids link seem to be broken...

Below image shows my laptop, a notebook & kindle

Ali Spittel • Nov 30 '18

Oops, fixed, thanks! These are awesome! Love the unicorn!

Sung M. Kim • Nov 30 '18

Thanks~

The closest thing to a sticker would be this one on the speaker:

Also pictured:

sheet from adhesive feet for Schiit Modi 2U
a single adhesive foot from a D-Link DCS-5### series camera that fell off in 2008
smooth but poorly-attached brownish sticker of unknown origin
2x EZY4613 SXF-ATH boarding pass stub from 10JUL (year unknown)

Other "stickers":

A Czech chicken baguette, from Poland:

Quality assurance tests from my last two APC UPSs, attached with original tape to the inside of a wardrobe:

Roman Veselý • Jul 16 '19

Chicken strips baguette sticker is not in Polish, but in Czech 😆🥖

Mihail Malo • Jul 16 '19

Shid, you're right!
But I procured it in Poland.

Going to their site, PL is the second language in their picker, after CZ.

Mihail Malo • Dec 5 '18

@giorgosk is this why you followed me? :O

Giorgos Kontopoulos 👀 • Dec 5 '18 • Edited

that too !!! ;-)
what does the sticker say ?

Mihail Malo • Dec 5 '18

Which one?

Giorgos Kontopoulos 👀 • Dec 5 '18

The baggage claim sticker ? (green white on the speakers)

Mihail Malo • Dec 5 '18

Edited for completeness.

Giorgos Kontopoulos 👀 • Dec 6 '18

It's dangerous to go alone

Thomas Philippot • Apr 19 '19

really love that triforce logo !

Daniel Lo Nigro • Dec 1 '18

Here's mine!

I'm upgrading to a newer laptop soon though, so I'm going to have to either lose the stickers, or work out how to remove them and re-stick them on the new laptop.

Meg Gutshall • Dec 5 '18

Kitty!

Lynne Finnigan • Nov 30 '18 • Edited

I love the rainbow github one! Here's mine, I plan to add more:

David J Eddy • Nov 30 '18

Though I use a desktop, Mac Pro, and another work notebook. Non have stickers on them. I like the clean OEM look. #callmeoldfashioned

Jan Hohner • Nov 30 '18

I've been working on mine since September - mostly stickers from MozFest, looking forward to the ones I'll get from Hacktoberfest and Microsoft🎉

Ali Spittel • Nov 30 '18

Nice!! The space one is great!!

Jan Hohner • Nov 30 '18

That one comes courtesy of @poshaugnessy@twitter.com and @diekus@twitter.com from Samsung Internet :)

One of my favourites is the bottom right - Mozilla Science's Science Fox

Viliam • Dec 2 '18

Shalvah • Dec 2 '18

Not a sticker person, but this is cool.

Antonio Radovcic • Nov 30 '18

Thanks for the shoutout!!!

Here's my latest iteration, with fresh stickers from React Day Berlin.

Jesse M. Holmes • Nov 30 '18

Love that Ben Folds sticker!

Ali Spittel • Nov 30 '18

Oh! Love the layout!

Brian Greig • Dec 2 '18

That ben folds sticker though.

Jamie • Dec 1 '18

My current devlid, sitting next to my current reading list.

I've also already seen one of my two stickers (two of them on this lid are for different podcasts of mine) on other lids in the comments.

Ali Spittel • Dec 1 '18

Jamie, you're too cool. That's awesome!

benji • Dec 1 '18

Lonely sticker. Definitely need to get more.

Nick Taylor • Nov 30 '18

Aperture, fantastic

Kyle Boe • Nov 30 '18 • Edited

Excited to add the DEV stickers to the collection!

Matt Miller • Dec 1 '18

Love all the Thoughtbot podcasts!

Sandilya Bhamidipati • Dec 2 '18 • Edited

I usually keep my stickers to the minimum replacing them over time :)

Ashish Singh • Jan 14 '19

Hey dude, where did you get the sticker from ? Can you send me the link, if that's possible.

Sandilya Bhamidipati • Jan 21 '19

Which one? There are 3 of them :)

Ashish Singh • Jan 21 '19

Let's say all three of them!

Sandilya Bhamidipati • Jan 21 '19

The ones on left and right are from mint mobile. The one on the top is from sticker mule

Stacy Montemayor • Dec 1 '18

I'm pretty minimal, but I like that they're both handmade - the catrina is hand-painted/inked!

Ali Spittel • Dec 1 '18

Woah! That is so cool!

Stacy Montemayor • Dec 1 '18

Thanks! There's another handmade sticker forthcoming, but I have to earn it first 😸

Arvind • Nov 30 '18 • Edited

I have one on my water bottle 😆 can anyone donate some? 😂

Sandilya Bhamidipati • Dec 2 '18

Love that bottle :) which brand and size is it? Would love to get one

Arvind • Dec 3 '18

you can get this one from Decathlon

exbe • Nov 30 '18

I also put mine on the water bottle

Fabian Holzer • Dec 3 '18

Oh, and at the risk of sounding like Sideshow Bob: I don't wish death upon something called unkonf - in this case 'die' is the german female definite article. ;)

Ahmad Awais ⚡️ • Dec 3 '18

Here you go. ↓

P.S. I am also getting some VSCode.pro stickers printed soon.

Ali Spittel • Dec 3 '18

Nice! Love the organization!

Ahmad Awais ⚡️ • Dec 3 '18

Thank you. I don't have a Dev.together sticker :( @ben . Got old Dev.to stickers. .together makes the most sense. :)

The front

Bonus #1

Bonus #2

jmc • May 1 '19

Only have the one.

But this thread is making me want to go heavier. I'd love to come across stickers of the old-school PLT Scheme logo...

Stephen Chiang • Dec 1 '18 • Edited

Home on the left, work on the right. Felt like hiding the Razer icon on the right so no one questions me working on a gaming laptop haha.

The home one is still a work in progress. Got a few sticker packs coming.

Stephen Chiang • Dec 1 '18

Forgot about the power adapter! No to more road tolls!!

Mark Nicol • Dec 1 '18 • Edited

Its a bit of a mixed bag at the moment - some tech, a few picked up at comic cons and some from work - need to buy myself some dev.to stickers. They look so lovely on other people's machines.

tiff • Dec 4 '18

I no longer have a MacBook Pro, I just have an iMac and iPad Pro. I just today put stickers on the case of the iPad.

Adam McNeilly • Dec 2 '18

Some of my sticker cases, but not all. I need to get an updated picture. :)

Zachary Wright • Dec 19 '19

Where did you get your cases from?

M. Andrew Darts • Nov 30 '18 • Edited

Yes!

Henry 👨‍💻 • May 14 '19

Hi, I've managed to resist plastering mine with language/library stickers thus far haha.

Nathan Tamez • May 14 '19

I removed the only one I had.

Stephanie Handsteiner • Dec 1 '18

Okay, what does the lack of stickers on my ~~notebook~~ devices tell you about my personality?

I like it plain and orderly, and yes, I know that I probably have got a stick up my own arse in this case. 😜

Stacy Montemayor • Dec 1 '18

Even though I always have stickers on my laptop, I always look enviously at other people's sticker-less devices!

Adam Romig 🇵🇭 • Jun 25 '19

My work laptop:

And my personal laptop. Never really had anything on it until now. My wife just made this penguin sticker for it. I just love it.

New MacBook - more space!

jmc • May 1 '19

hey is one of those related to "Eat a Peach"?

Clara • May 1 '19

I am afraid it's not. The car is the logo of the company I work for (Le Wagon) and the background is hummus - a sticker made by the Tel Aviv branch.

jmc • May 1 '19

ha... hummus is tricky like that though!

Brian Greig • Dec 2 '18

Cool collection.

Stephen Chiang • Dec 1 '18

Home on the left, work on the right. The work one is done, but the home one is just starting out! I'm also loving the little Dev magnet on the front of my Mac.
