Any advice on selling one single (identical) product?

Heya, so years ago as a side project I designed and printed a simple card game with the goal of selling it exclusively online. Shortly after that I went into burnout for many other reasons, and I didn't advertise it as hard as I should have, and now I'm left with tons of stock.

I recently visited a market where I think there is potential for it to sell well (the game's visual identity perfectly fits the aesthetic of the market), so I would like to consider having a table there. The problem is that whenever I research booth displays or selling strategies, it's all from people who sell 46 different things and who are actively promoting their business on social media.

I'm not really looking into expanding this business, and my social media presence is pretty much non existant right now (which has helped with the burnout). I mainly want to be free from these boxes of stock.

With that in mind, how would you set up your table if you only sold one product? I was thinking of displaying a few on a table (and then refill later as needed), with a visible price sign and another quickly explaining the rules, some decoration, but I'm not really sure how to find the right balance between a table looking empty due to the lack of product diversity and a table looking overly decorated to compensate for that lack of product diversity.

I don't expect this product to sell like hot cakes either, right now I'm mostly working on making sure I manage to sell at least one deck 😬

If you have image or video references too I'd appreciate it!

Questions about responsiveness

So the golden rule of modern web design is to "think mobile first", but I find that incredibly restricting creatively speaking, so for non professional portfolio stuff I've always approached the issue of responsiveness the opposite way (if at all). For better or worse.

Now I find myself in such a case. Yes I have the meta viewport tag. Yes I know about media queries. Yes I know about vw, vh, em, rem, etc.... even though I still used px and pt for most things. With that in mind:

* Which specific media queries do you use? Last time I really attempted responsiveness I followed a template that had like 20 different ones to make sure it looked perfect on all existing devices, but that was 10-15 years ago (oof) and I am hoping things are more standardized now, and I don't have it in me to go through that again. Do you have a particular min/max width threshold you like to stick to? Do you just use orientation:portrait/landscape?

* If you're not using a grid/flexbox based layout, how do you handle responsive positions, margins, padding? Especially if your website is heavy on visuals.

* If you too messed up and built a whole website with px and pt before realizing you wanted to make it responsive, how did you convert units in hopefully the least painful way?

The lazy way to deal with it of course would be to put just one media query with a text that says "desktop only" or "rotate device" (I've done that before), but this time I'd like to tackle this problem head on. Kinda.

I'm also curious to see how other non professional webdevs deal with it, because I'm very aware of the condescending "you should have thought of your mobile layout first ☝️🤓" not very helpful advice I'd get from modern webdevs lol

Any file browser that allows to search image files by color?

I just archived about 750k pictures of random pngs and gifs, all organized in the same folder hierarchy I found them in (which is not a really good one). Obviously, I can't remember where each and every picture is or their name, and I'd like to avoid having to look through 200+ folders everytime I'm looking for a specific image I remember the thumbnail of.

I'd like to know if there's a file browser that allows you to search by color, like the feature most web search engines have. Preferably nothing AI-related.

Thanks in advance!

Möglichkeit ein verlorenes Päckchen ohne Sendungsverfolgung zu finden?

Am 1. Juni habe ich ein XS-Päckchen an einer DHL-Packstation abgegeben, mit einem ausgedruckten Etikett, auf dem die vollständige Adresse des Empfängers und meine eigene vermerkt waren, sowie auf der Rückseite noch einmal meine Adresse.

Dieses Päckchen sollte nach Frankreich verschickt werden, aber es sind nun schon 24 Tage vergangen und meine Freundin hat immer noch nichts erhalten. Das Päckchen enthält nichts Wertvolles (nur eine bemalte Streichholzschachtel mit Fotos, ein altes Festivalarmband und einige Aufkleber) daher bezweifle ich dass es gestohlen worden sein könnte.

Gibt es eine Möglichkeit herauszufinden was damit passiert ist? Ich habe bereits vor einigen Wochen versucht DHL zu kontaktieren, aber dort wird immer wieder nach einem Sendungsverfolgungscode gefragt den ich nicht habe. Ich würde zumindest gerne wissen ob es Deutschland verlassen hat, und dann würde ich mich an die französische Post wenden.

What player is this?

Movie is Kamikaze Girls / Shimotsuma Monogatari (2004)

I tried searching "clip-on headphones pink 2000s" or other similar terms but I can't find this specific model. Seems to be related to the Sony MDR-Q[etc] line from what I gathered, but I can't find one in that color and with what seems to be a round little LCD screen.
