The line spacing on the site reminds me of 8-bit computers with 8x8 pixel character cells. For example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpeedScript#/media/File:Speeds...


It does have that feel, but it's decidedly cramped compared to, say, the VT100's font, or even that of the VT52, which are both a bit closer to the "server" heritage they are alluding to.

Many other "code page 437" (console graphics fonts) do much better than this for readability at base line-height.

It does exist, it just doesn't get linked in the page. Click on the media item, your URL bar has changed.


I did and I got my link to the File: page. The page source has no element with an id of that value.
