This is so cursed, there is so much that begs the question - "why?"...
I love it.
I can't wait for the next beautiful nightmare. Maybe someone should mix font rendering with PDF rendering. Of course, with a LLM doing something in the middle.
The answer is "no why", just for fun :) Though I learned a lot about how to stuff an NN model in a WASM binary and some tricks to optimize performance.
back in the day there was a healthy blend of win95, 98, ME, XP, and vista in the wild. it was common for devs to check for older versions with something like `if str(os.version)[0] == 9`. according to legend enough (internal?) software kept breaking that the solution became "don't put a 9 in the version number".
iirc they officially stated it was because of how much people disliked win8.
Certainly one of the names of all times.
