[06:31:57] brothchild i missed out on most federated tech, just watched from sidelines. a friend pushed me onto fediverse but i don't post much

[06:35:00] brothchild mostly bash, c, perl, some python

[06:35:38] brothchild perl's not quicksand under my feet. 2001 programs still run.

[06:35:49] brothchild holy cow yes, i'm TRENDY wtf

[06:36:01] brothchild it's cause the browser is such a pig

[06:38:14] brothchild not much chat here but i like the folks i met

[06:38:50] brothchild yeah here's something we need to jihaad. libvte terminals introduced mandatory 1-pixel spacing between rows about 10 years ago

[06:39:01] brothchild don't have a time machine sadly

[06:39:07] brothchild so most terminal graphics are now broken

[06:39:21] brothchild you know what the workaround is?

[06:39:29] brothchild it's so cringe

[06:39:45] brothchild heh

[06:40:41] brothchild the workaround is they're not using the fonts to render semigraphics characters anymore, but special code to make them stretch top to bottom. They no-longer use your selected font for utf-8 block characters and geometric characters. It's so bad...

[06:40:44] brothchild oh yeah

[06:41:03] brothchild gimme a subject maybe i already made a pic

[06:41:11] brothchild i done like 2000+

[06:41:16] brothchild yeah...

[06:41:59] brothchild i can't even reconstruct the whole story properly, i'd need to write it up someday

[06:42:25] brothchild yeah and you should be able to set xfce4-term etc to have 0-pixel spacing between rows

[06:42:35] brothchild but you can't anymore

[06:43:01] brothchild it's the antialiased font children

[06:43:05] brothchild and their paternalism

[06:43:11] brothchild inverted - children will rule - shit

[06:43:24] brothchild and a creepy as fuck iranian

[06:43:41] brothchild who drew a 1 million dollar a year salary from facebook for a while

[06:43:46] brothchild it's like twilight zone

[06:44:17] brothchild you know causte terminals just HAVE to have right-to-left rendering

[06:44:22] brothchild SOMEBODY SAID THEY HAVE TO

[06:44:26] brothchild ...

[06:45:16] brothchild xterm's still fine.

[06:45:28] brothchild and i'll try to finish my PR to zutty
