    Hi again. I have the same issue in my browser, and locally in nvim. NerdFonts (and the right terminal emulator) were needed, and enough, there. Playing with AstroNvim, and blocked …

    Excellent descriptive analysis. Wrong, misleading title, perhaps "technically correct," but at best with a "backdoored" meaning. It points out the need and use for build-manager to…
