no I don’t. I said nothing about what skepticism is. My comment was about YouTube “skeptics” and the people they idolized, like Sam Harris and Dick Dawkins.

I’m very skeptical of “skeptical materials”. most of that shit went on to a misogynistic, transphobic and xenophobic route. and that’s not captain disillusion.

imagine missing this entire goldmine over makeup…

to answer your question, considering he’s been doing this for nearly two decades, maybe in 15 years? assuming that’s when he stops making videos.

I will be sure to auto filter any emails from that shit.

I mean, have you ever really looked at him without the hindsight knowledge of what nazi germany would be like? he’s so fucking lame.

nancy just blocked aoc. they don’t want a win.

even so they both were extremely well received

we’re not speaking about a computer font, we’re speaking about typography in general. the reason I mentioned them is because the ubiquity was forced by restrictions. we used to type non-english letters without diacritics before different languages got support online. now we don’t have those restrictions either. what you said is not universal; there are different kinds for different uses. just like uppercase and lowercase letters.

idk what you mean by universal; this is a typographical choice. the only reason you see more uppercase numbers everywhere is because of typewriters and by extension computers. I don’t think people make a point of lining numbers up with cap height in handwriting.

yeah I said for big sizes. 16 is more mid, and not perfect for segoe’s thin lines. i think verdana is still a bit too bulky for 16 but for any kind of vision impairment it should be great. you might want to try trebuchet. another low contrast default ms font but it’s a bit more humanist and pleasing to look at in those sizes.

it’s not smart to wholly rely on results of a single experiment, scientifically speaking

it clearly is going by how butthurt the media is about the public reaction to this killing done in defense of others.

I just don’t understand how people accept smelling like absolute shit all day. idk if they think they stop smelling the moment they litter the street with their cigarette butts but that shit stays on you for the rest of the day and when you walk around you smell how an ashtray must taste. disgusting.

on average, how many "nein"s do you hear from non-germans per day?

sorry but Luigi Mangione sounds like a name a token Italian character would have in harry potter. idk how prejudiced it is to assume this is an italian name.

you don’t need 2 either. 1 is the setup, 3 is the punchline.

lowercase numbers, check my comment above if you’re interested

they’re called lowercase numbers and they’re designed to look good in paragraph text. for example if you’re reading this comment, mentioning the year 1997 suddenly puts four full height characters as if I typed one word in all caps, while in lowercase numbers it would look more like if I typed the word iggy (1 is x height while 9 and 7 have descenders like g and y).

they’re not designed to be used in math or for longer number sequences. for that you have the full height (uppercase) numbers that most typeface should still have.

0123456789 in lowercase have the same heights as oizgjpbyfq - just as random as that word’s letter heights are. which is not random at all, you’re just not supposed to use it like that.

verdana is great for small sizes on screen. it was designed specifically for that purpose so it would look good with pixellation. it’s probably the most successfully designed Microsoft font to date. if you want to type anything in like 5-6pt font verdana is a great choice. but that also makes it bulky and inelegant at larger font sizes.

if you want a sans serif default ms font to use in larger sizes the segoe font family is pretty good.
