Ben Shapiro show is really good

2018-04-04 00:45:26 UTC  

The titles are cringey

2018-04-04 00:45:46 UTC  

It’s slightly overrated

2018-04-04 00:47:11 UTC  

Ur overrated

2018-04-04 00:47:20 UTC  

no u

2018-04-04 00:48:04 UTC  

So..... I just spent the last hour trying to get emojis and unicode to work in windws 7.

All I accomplished was slightly changing the font and turning off Aero.

Fuck you Microsoft.

2018-04-04 00:48:44 UTC  

I don't remember how MS' text rendering works. Doesn't it switch fonts as needed to render text?

2018-04-04 00:48:52 UTC  

Yeah. it does

2018-04-04 00:48:53 UTC  

That is, if a font file is missing a glyph, use a fallback font to render it?

2018-04-04 00:49:10 UTC  

I found the font pack 'Noto' from google that is updated to the current unicode and emoji packs

2018-04-04 00:49:31 UTC  

At least that's how it works on the Unix world, with fontconfig. We usually have individual fonts for each language.

2018-04-04 00:49:33 UTC  

windows refuses to even acknowledge its installed

2018-04-04 00:49:42 UTC  

LOL

2018-04-04 00:50:22 UTC  

I installed *72* fucking fonts, and none of them show up as an option

2018-04-04 00:50:28 UTC  

smh

2018-04-04 00:50:35 UTC  

Maybe you need to reboot?

2018-04-04 00:50:48 UTC  

this is like try number 7 lol

2018-04-04 00:50:50 UTC  

i have 148 additional ones. 25 of them are actually licensed for free use. 😄

2018-04-04 00:51:13 UTC  

18 of them are questionable nature - noveau Ibm and all the ibm bios replica ones

2018-04-04 00:51:23 UTC  

```sh
$ du -sh /usr/share/fonts
466M /usr/share/fonts
```

2018-04-04 00:52:20 UTC  

At some point, it's just annoying to have too many fonts.

2018-04-04 00:52:39 UTC  

or joystix which should be legal, but it's also made 1:1 to referrence nintendo font (found in devkit of nes)

2018-04-04 00:52:50 UTC  

I wish font selectors could adapt, having categories or something.

2018-04-04 00:52:57 UTC  

Oh yeah.

2018-04-04 00:53:32 UTC  

Serif, and sans sections

2018-04-04 00:53:33 UTC  

it becomes a pain when you just need that "bitmap font, 10 px native size, frequency of use - low"

The one from Splatoon.

2018-04-04 00:54:26 UTC  

Looks like 70s tripped over toy box

2018-04-04 00:55:58 UTC  

@DanielKO whenever i see logo fonts used for information pages - something dies inside me little by little

2018-04-04 00:56:59 UTC  

Yeah, at least in Splatoon 2 they switched to a simpler font.

2018-04-04 00:57:17 UTC  

aka - actually hired typographer

2018-04-04 00:57:41 UTC  

or graphics designer which had better taste in fonts

2018-04-04 00:58:07 UTC  

Splatoon 1 has two fonts: Paintball and some regular Sans font.

2018-04-04 00:58:37 UTC  

I wish they'd use the Sans font for all the verbose text.

2018-04-04 00:59:02 UTC  

this is one of my favorite fonts https://www.dafont.com/timeburner.font it's very light and detail compression is good

2018-04-04 01:00:18 UTC  

it also partially calls out to art deco, which is always a plus

2018-04-04 01:01:18 UTC  

This is the Splatoon 2 font.

2018-04-04 01:01:21 UTC  

yeah this is much better
