Yesterday, I changed my default typeface for VS Code to Determination Sans.

And now I've discovered that in Determination typeface, i and 1 look extremely similar.

Different test cases for inputting i and inputting 1. Inputting i would yield an error, while inputting 1 would yield 0.08.
In the typeface used, both lowercase i and the number 1 look extremely similar, making it appear as though the same input twice would yield different results.

You don't sound like you've changed.

Yes, it was totally that and not because Microsoft wanted to increase the distance from Windows 8.

Xbox has had a terrible naming "convention..."
Xbox One, Xbox Series...

Xbox 360 might have been strange after Xbox, but Microsoft could've gone the Atari route from there, and called the next Xbox the Xbox 720. Then, today, we'd have the Xbox 1080.

Sunk cost, sunk cost, sunk cost...

For crying out loud, everything you've invested so far is lost anyway! Cut your losses now before you lose any more, and walk away with a lesson!

Panel 1: Text says "My dad was an orc". It's a green orc wearing a dress shirt with a purple tie and glasses, holding a cup of coffee. The cup is made of stone and has an ragged axe blade on it. He also has a pencil in his pocket protector, and the pencil is also a tiny axe.

Panel 2: Text says "My mom was a witch". It's a woman with green skin and one yellow eye, glowing and emanating magic, gleaming from beneath her big purple witch had, which has small wood constructions hanging off of it and two pins on it: one of a mushroom and one of the Newgrounds angry face. He's wearing jeans and a Costco tank top, with a reddish purple vest over it, and is holding a broom and a tote bag with a bag of chips visible within it.

Panel 3: Text says "You'd think I'd be some kind of magical berserker". We are looking overhead at a muscular green man looking up at us, with his arms splayed out in a powerful stance, and his left arm holding an axe. He has a dark purple had and shoulder-cape, and smiles with malice. Text continues, saying "but actually I ended up with my MOM'S strength and my DAD'S magic attunement."

Panel 4: A normal looking with green skin, messy purple hair, big round glasses, and a pointy nose, wearing a t-shirt with the night sky in a square in the center, says "so, basically, I'm green."

"Just buy an Xbox 360!"

I'd been confused ever since the Xbox One, because I thought Xbox One was the original Xbox!

books should have an anti-acknowledgements section where the author talks shit about all the people who fucked them over while they were trying to write the thing. not bc I personally want to write one but bc I love gossip
