somehow i still keep learning new stuff about css
today i discovered that `font-family: monospace;` causes the text to become smaller!
you can get around this by doing `font-family: monospace, monospace;`
@rebane2001 but why? 😢
@desttinghim @rebane2001 It's because your browser lets you set different default size for monospace fonts.
okay, points for not immediately overriding the browser setting, but why does “monospace, monospace” increase it?
(to do: try _three_ “monospace”s)
@clew @dos @desttinghim @rebane2001 this is how you find out that "monospace" is the name of one of the elder gods.
@clew @dos @desttinghim @rebane2001 That's how you summon Beetlejuice.
@scottmichaud @clew @dos @desttinghim @rebane2001 Not Beetlejuice - Hans Zapf!
@clew @dos @desttinghim @rebane2001 I'm too scared to say it three times in front of a mirror at midnight
@clew @dos @desttinghim @rebane2001 and when they woke up the next morning there was a nine pin serial port hanging on the doorknob but the other end was just blood
@dos
That is so cursed.
Does font-size:inherit fix it?
