Presenting the New TechPowerUp

Looks good, needs nothing more to say.

Ubersonic · Apr 14, 2016

Font is readable now /cheer

Noticed one more issue ... viewing images on TPU in Chrome ... color box plugin has ugly blue border on navigation buttons when focused ...
This can be fixed by adding this to colorbox-v1.css

Code:

#cboxPrevious:focus, #cboxNext:focus
{
  outline:0 !important;
}

I love TPU but I can't stand the new font. It's too light/thin and too "rounded" which is kind of cartoonish imo....doesn't look good on a professional tech site.

Roph · Apr 14, 2016

Yeah, android app still broken. I assume it pulled from the site's RSS, which you've changed in this update?

Looks perfect in Dolphin Browser.

Yes - please revert. I cant afford new glasses.

Better, easier to read fonts?

Here I see something ugly and blurry, but then again, my display is just 92DPI.

Guys, you need to understand that not everyone has a QHD 5.5" (over 450DPI) or 28" UHD display (over 150DPI).

They won't do that for the obvious reasons: it's a f***ing fad on the Internet now - if you don't use custom fonts you're a f***ing loser.

There's one beautiful solution to this madness - use uBlock Origin - it can block all custom fonts with just one click.

Meanwhile, if you guys don't want to f*** with our eyes on low dpi screens you can trivially fix it by using appropriate CSS rules, e.g.

HTML:

@media
(-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5),
(min-resolution: 144dpi) {
    /* HiDPI stuff here, including glorious TPU-* fonts */
}

In fact I beg you to use this rule. Please.

Thanks for the reminder! Much better without the custom font.

Looks good to me..a lot better than [h]'s new format.
Doesn't matter to me anyways.I mentioned to Kyle Bennet how the new [h] is not an improvement and he banned me after 5 years.
TPU at least still feels the same.
[h] kinda went full-retard,anyway.

The font looks super nice. Been visiting the site from both my laptop and my smartphone using Firefox. Love it :love:
