What would you consider as the most recognizable bitmap fonts in tech history?

I’m imagining stuff like:
- the arcade/Atari font
- Chicago (Mac, then iPod)
- VCR/video equipment fonts
- Minecraft font
- IBM PC fonts (MDA, VGA, stuff like that)
- perhaps System font from Windows 3.x
- Commodore 64, just because of the sheer popularity of the machine

What am I missing?

to be fair I've been flying without one for years with zero issues

hey. i've been incapacitated for the past 12 days, and no longer have a stable place to live.

We urgently need more @emf sponsors - if we do not secure more, we will have to make tough decisions.

Tickets cover base costs, but sponsors pay for lovely things like our free childcare and talk transcription. Every little helps!

that circular reflection of a head-on ring light in someone's eyes is so distracting to me

also it's so cool that people consider this silly little game important enough to analyze every tiny bit of it

I guess what actually makes them possible is a lot of good QA

watching the pannenkoek video like… how do video games ever get made

oo, my small box of M3 bolts arrived

my collection of hardware to screw into 3D prints grows

the only thing more funny about the humane ai pin ppl whining about Marques giving them a scathing review is learning how much money they burnt on making a device that's so fundamentally useless no one could ever want it

also if you're looking for a python/ci/cd/sre developer, I'm looking for a more long-term job. Check out my resume:

I'm still broke, though I've got a temp job for now: they've not yet paid me, however, and I've had to pay something like 4k$ for two medications, and another 2k$ that was supposedly going to make the 4k$ free.

So any donations would be great. ko-fi.com/fooneturing

(it still needs the stand which shouldn't be printed in PLA, a metal sponge and some M3×20 bolts)

the Dawntrail benchmark is pretty, ngl, have some HD Lala

the trailer hair looks good, I wish I could have the correct one though

instead of leading with the massive graphical overhaul the entire game received, the first point on the benchmark page is that there's Femhroth
