So, you don't pay attention to any of the news do you?

The space between the R and the e is driving me nuts.

I didn’t notice until you pointed it out. Thank you kindly.

I still can't find it. I never find the hidden snake picture. I never find Waldo. Now... spaces between an r and e?

“Release” in the preview thumbnail. It has shitty kerning.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerning

I don't think that the "R" and "e" in the thumbnail image cover the same space in the x dimension.

It's not a space. "Related Links" in the article does the same thing and uses the same typeface. It's just that the typeface that they use has somewhat-loose kerning on the "Re" letter combination.

It doesn't look that bad to me, though it could live with being tighter.
