Feels like a 200 level college psychology experiment.

Does Europe have any laws about branding cheaper or items with less features, identically to existing more expensive products and selling them for less?
If not, they should, but then Temu would get fucked I assume.
It’s also in the DSM, but there’s probably ranges of both and I don’t think either one precludes or excludes the other. Narcissism also shares a lot of symptoms with bipolar disorder, which the recent interviews with the biographer Walter Isaacson about Musk seems pretty clearly to be a problem. (See ‘demon mode’)
Missed at least two of the more important ones:
| Fewer Letters | More Letter |
|---|---|
| RTSP | Real Time Streaming Protocol |
| ONVIF | Open Network Video Interface Forum |
Still a pretty cool bit idea though. Keep at it!
Yup early millennials too. That game was my go to for most of 2000.
As an old Reddit user, that’s why I came here. Just gotta get up the wherewithal to start/ recruit some of the niche subs I enjoyed most now.
I agree that texture healing is a bit too vague about that they’re really using it for. Its really for kerning pair without disrupting the monospaced grid. Maybe, since the audience for these fonts aren’t usually typographers, they should have called it Monospaced Kerning Pairs?
Texture is a term and feature of typefaces in design however. Usually described for fonts used in body text, or larger blocks of text.
While it probably doesn’t affect shorter lines of text used in most coding languages, it can be harder to read when smaller sizes are used. Monospaced MmWw are the worst culprits.
One memorable observation on typographic texture was made by Heinz Peyer, a Swiss poet, who said that reading a text composed in Helvetica was like walking through a field of stones, whereas reading a text in Syntax was like walking through a field of flowers. (23)
Form is often susceptible to logical analysis, and pattern somewhat so, but texture evades precise description because its repetitions are so numerous, its features so small, and its interactions so refined, that the multifarious complexity of the emergent image resists orderly analysis. Texture requires a holistic more than an analytic under standing.
Ironically the second paragraph is turning out to be largely incorrect with smarter ways to analyze blocks of typeface texture. Also this second paragraph nicely illustrates the utter wankery present in a lot of typography circles and analysis.
Gotta justify that grad school bill somehow (pun intended).
Edited for spelling
Like kerning pairs, but with character swapping instead of kerning adjustments. It’s a really clever use of the language features available in Unicode.
Except I like reading the comments…
Ah I guess they fixed it.
Also the additions are pretty great too. I always wanted to know how they were so sure the Lascaux paintings weren’t done by bored teens.
OSX had stacks, and has quick view that does all that piles stuff. I tried them out for about a week when they were first introduced. Grids are better for a reason.
And the print dialogs all have save PDF instead, but automating an eReader upload is a neat idea.
I’ve said both subversion was better, and worse before for sure. PTSD is making it hard to remember what I’ve said when trying to remove a PSD of mpeg you accidentally committed in the first commit and just noticed as you cloned the repo home and it was 2gb for a 3 page website.
