    ah but did you tell them in CP437 or something fancy (like any text encoding after 1996)? 🤨🤨🥹

      Sadly all my best text encoding stories would make me identifiable to coworkers so I can’t share them here. Because there’s been some funny stuff over the years. Wait where did I go wrong that I have multiple text encoding stories?

      That said I mostly just deal with normal stuff like UTF-8, UTF-16, Latin1, and ASCII.
