I love that pirate groups still use ascii text art in their release notes. It’s like a little piece of the world that hasn’t changed in 30 years.

I need to find out how to make these. Mostly just cause I like it.

On Linux, you'll want to install figlet and toilet (both available in the debian repos)

Alternatively you've got this online frontend

If you really want to get weird with it you can also play any video in ascii art through libcaca and mplayer. Looks like this

I use ~~Arch btw~~ Endeavour OS so don't have Debian repos but I will definitely check them out. I especially like the fancy dark mode.

I just checked and figlet at least appears to be in the arch repositories as well

Thanks, I will check it out tomorrow. I uave used pyfiglet in the past tbf so I figured it woukd be available either via the official repos or the AUR.
