I'm asking here. Hey, do you notice any change in the fonts? Mine are weird looking now. Random letters are bolded, others are bunched together. It's aggravating to read. Wish I could figure out how to change the font. This just started in the past few days.

You rebooted your computer?

Do you run any protection software? Sounds like an issue with your computer. Does it happen on other sites?

Maybe I have a ram starvation going on where things have to change due to dwindling random access memory.

Reboot cleared the problem. After 3-4 weeks of running without a reboot. I had a slow suck on the graphics output. Letters conserved bits by degrading the letter outputs.

Thanks Kiddo!

Things to try. I completely shut mine down whenever I walk away from it so it reboots every day.
