I haven't tried to figure out why. @practicum noticed that the letters are all 3 off and lowercase. G-3=d, R-3=o ...

@drfloob Thanks for the report and a screenshot, we will try to figure out why this happening.

We could just rename grunt to dorkq to fix this problem, no?

After looking at 858d22a, it looks like the problem was actually the font (makes more sense than it being text-stroke)?

That is awesome, lol...

@zackbloom I think I had to choose to either keep text-stroke or keep the h1

@vladikoff You wouldn’t happen to have a reduced testcase or a minimal changeset? :)

@zackbloom

Yea, I'd love an explanation on what the actual bug was.

It's some combination of text-stroke being inside of an h1. So you have to choose either have an h1 or text-stroke. I tried making an isolated test case but can't reproduce, I don't have any of the devices that had this problem.

dorkq

Is that a font issue? The string "dorkq" is not random:

d - e - f - g
o - p - q - r
r - s - t - u
k - l - m - n
q - r - s - t

@Boldewyn nice find!

And if we sum it up with random numbers... the result is 42!

For anyone interested, I've made a reduced test case here http://jsbin.com/aMuzAn/7

@Boldewyn @kahlil That correlation was mentioned in the original report. More likely I think they are off by 29: GHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[]^_`abcd.

Can bug reports on GitHub be "archived" or "frozen" for posterity purposes? I think this one seems mature and—somewhat hypocritically—I don't believe it needs more outside input to achieve its maximal historical interest and hilarity.

Well, someone had to do this https://npmjs.org/package/dorkq

@Boldewyn

@andrewsf D’oh! Thanks for the reminder, that one should read bug reports thoroughly!

For the "freezing": I’d love to see one last follow-up comment of the glorious person, that files the upstream bug with the Android browser, sharing the bug URL.

👍 For the tshirt

I'd seriously still like to know what happened here, because I know my OpenType, and unless the font somehow has GSUB rules specific to running a Caesar cypher, that is not a thing that will spontaneously happen.

@davelab6

There was a bug in Java where fonts were cached in way that used Glyph IDs, so when a font was updated and the GID order changed, you'd see a caesar cypher effect. Its possible there is such a bug in Android.

Pomax commented Jan 27, 2016

That's quite the bug. Would you happen to know the bug link for that on the java side?
