Encase anybody is wondering, the 4166 #ban #days for #harassment in #minecraft #java is the following in #ascii ")B", which is an unhappy face. Likely overlooked by the #minecraft #community https://youtube.com/watch?v=x2Kp6E2AOys This equals approximately 12 years!
Pretty funny #article on what if #php was written in #english https://aloneonahill.com/blog/if-php-wer.. I do find the use of the $ #dollar #symbol annoying, but at the same time it is #supported in #ascii , and #ascii is the lowest section of the #unicode table - so it makes sense to use it.
#asciiwave seems like a great #tool for #generating #ascii #art for #timing #diagrams https://hackaday.com/2022/04/04/turn-tim.. Seems like it could be quite useful for #electronics !
Yeah... #text #rendering and #ui #design around #fonts is *really* tough: https://gankra.github.io/blah/text-hates.. For this reason alone, #deadsocial only supports 7 bit #ascii - the reason being that it's better off #supporting a #subset really well, rather than a #superset really badly... I do not envy the lost #souls that work in such areas...
