@GrundislavGames it sure is
@Danpiker this worked significantly better once I disabled night light on my phone. Knowing what it's actually meant to look like, it's not too much of a surprise that a blue light filter ruined it
@foone etymologically speaking, I think anything that's a picture that you can embed in a string of text should count as just plain emoji, so the unicode one should be the one to have a more specific definition

@SuperSelena64 biblically accurate turbo switches, but also ABC/LPR really threw me until I realised it's just moving other buttons around
@aeva having now been unemployed for over a year I have thankfully forgotten most of the pain it causes, but the one that really sticks with me is how it switches around the behaviour of return and shift+return when you enter a code block. So many times I sent messages that just ended in ```
i am starting to suspect that not enough people feel obligated to sing "NUMA NUMA YAY" everytime the Non-Uniform Memory Architecture comes up in conversation.
