It looks like this app is shelling out to ffmpeg to get the bitmap of a frame and then shelling to something called chafa to covert to nice terminal-friendly video.
fwiw I'm not in the camp of "we must have everything done in one consistent way" but there are places, for example a public API, where having 4 different names for the same concept, 3 different response format/url path styles, etc. starts to look really sloppy.
Can't reproduce it exactly as it happened, but if I run `STATE=7280398215952 bash 2048.bash` and press a 8 times, the 128 always becomes a 2.
This also reminds me of TapXR, which I would totally buy if did morse, instead of inventing their own encoding. I get it, theirs is probably way faster but fluency is morse is more general purpose.

If you let billionaires make the choices then sure you get some like Feeney/Gates/Buffett but you get Koch brothers.
Government could theoretically do a more equitable job but only if social programs are run competently. Think about the leadership of EPA and HUD.
