abadidealocal old computer lady crumbles to dust when she realizes that many people don't realize Undertale uses Comic Sans and Papyrus because they were the most notorious fonts and not that they're now the most notorious fonts because they were featured in Undertale

KelsonI've written up the process of getting those missing half-star symbols onto a web page by embedding a font that supports them.
It's definitely overkill for this use case, but I wanted to see what it would take, and I figured it was worth saving the information. If at some point I decide I need real half-star symbols on my reviews, it'll be more efficient to just embed some SVGs instead.
Using Unicode Half-Stars Symbols in Ratings
Filled and outlined stars have been in Unicode forever. Half-stars have been available since Unicode 11 (2018), but font support is still spotty. Fortunately you can embed a font on your website that *does* support the symbols and rate something four and a half stars.

J. David EisenbergThe letter spacing on the name of the newspaper (Stadtblatt) seems too wide. The „fl“ ligature is probably very well designed, but it looks awkward to me. Am I way off base here? #fonts

But great to see there's cooler alternatives nowadays
PadcraftingWe need plotter/CNC optimized fonts. Not just single stroke or thin stick fonts - actual fonts designed for minimizing pen ups, and allowing for path optimization. This would include new interpretations of cursive, and dealing with the dot of the lower case i. #penplotter #fonts
