I am forever traumatized by the game of Perfection from my childhood.
Keep that shit away from me. I'm not perfect and don't need the reminder.

@catsalad I had to pause playing that game for weeks after I failed to talk that one girl out of jumping… So yeah.
And I certainly won’t watch the show alone when it’s released.

@catsalad@infosec.exchange NieR Replicant. There's a lot of paths in the game, but in one specific moment you witness the tragic death of a character that is only briefly around and yet you feel responsible for her death. As soon as the cutscene ended, the game loaded me into a field and somber piano music began playing. I sobbed.

There was a spot near one of the exits in Myst Riven. The music wounds me to tears, every time.

Inaugurazione del casello autostradale di Maddaloni. Alti rappresentanti della Repubblica si mettono a pregare guidati da un sacerdote che al termine inscena il rito scaramantico della benedizione.

Disassembling Opcodes with a Font
Those who stay into the forbidden realm of font rendering quickly learn how convoluted and arcane it can be – LaTeX is a fully Turing-complete programming language, Unicode has over eighty invisible characters, and there are libraries that let you execute WebAssembly in a font. A great example of a font’s hidden capabilities is Z80 Sans, a font that disassembles Z80 opcodes to assembly mnemonics.
If one pastes Z80 opcodes into a word processor and changes their font to Z80 Sans, the codes are rendered as their assembly mnemonics. The font manages this by abusing the Glyph Substitution Table and Glyph Positioning Table, two components of the OpenType standard. Fonts define relations between characters (internal representations used by the computer, such as ASCII and Unicode) and glyphs (the graphics actually displayed).
In some cases, though, the way a character is displayed depends on where it appears in a word, or what appears around it (Arabic characters are a common example, but an example from English is the ligature “æ”). Z80 Sans defines all the possible glyphs for each nibble of the opcodes, then used a recursive descent parser to generate substitution rules which display the correct glyphs in context.
For a deeper dive into the pitfalls of text graphics, check out this font rendering engine written for a hobby OS. You can also use fonts to play games or talk to an LLM.
