New silicon fonts
Oh god why please no.
I'm all for new fonts for the silicons, but the italics make reading robotic chat so jarring and weird. Please revert.

Re: New silicon fonts
It's a good idea, but it looks kind of strange, really. It's not distinct, on my end, at least.

Re: New silicon fonts
Codewise, I feel it should have been tied to the language (Silicons speak ROBOT. (which is not the same as "binary")) instead of hard-coded directly into silicon speech. The actual font does not display for me, so I cannot judge it properly. It should never be displayed in italics, though.

Re: New silicon fonts
Robotic chat looks like ass.
Normal silicons talking in radio looks great.

Re: New silicon fonts
Yeah I agree that regular silicon text looks awesome, nice to see some difference.
However that text in italics looks TERRIBLE... Maybe we can use another font or show binary talk some other way? Or just have binary standard font but italics as previously?

Re: New silicon fonts
The fonts in general are pretty ass, not just the silicon one. Mixing serif and non serif fonts is just bad though.

Re: New silicon fonts
Seems they've been changed to another font. I think this one works, but yet it doesnt seem as nice somehow.
Whatever
