    Looks like the C64 keyboard font thing I shared the other day is, I don't know what to call it, "prompt driven drivel"?

    By the looks of the commits and the approach, is seems to be "here's photos, make a font" instead of carefully analyzing all the C64 keyboard variations, and meticulously drawing the letters.

    Every time I see the possibility of LLM in coding in a slightly positive way, something like this grounds me again. I somewhat resigned to fancy autocomplete in code, but offloading the part where your heart and soul should go, is kinda depressing.

    @pixelambacht Ah dang. I did find the 2 weirdly different from the source but chalked it up to maybe a lack of skill, but sounds like it might have been a lack of SKILL.md (and heart and soul). 🥲

    @chriskirknielsen Yeah, a closer look at the chars is what made it clear for me as well. You would never draw, review and commit that stuff if you were paying attention 😥
