This brand-new brickwork irritates me immensely. Why simulate a curve with straight segments when you could make it truly round?
It brings me back to the early days of digital printing, when @eWalthert@typo.social complained about how awful printed type looked: curves rendered as polygons instead of smooth outlines.

@eWalthert@typo.social ze draaiden in Nederland in 2025 in de bios, vandaar. En ik zag er geen van deze in jouw Letterboxd, ook niet in 2024.
Riefenstahl is vervreemdend, zeker kijken. Ik zou alleen niet gemerkt hebben als de aftiteling een half uur eerder in beeld kwam, ze hadden gerust op een willekeurig moment een knip ✂️ erin kunnen zetten.
