after doing cat file | tr -d '\000' > new_file
diff file new_file

diff shows nothing and the md5sums are the same.

reason there are so many non ascii characters
There are lots of information things like ALT Characters http://www.tedmontgomery.com/tutorial/altchrc-a.html <<< been in the same file for years now >>>

lots of newer console output are using things like "●" docker, systemd, pip etc

It also appear some chars have corrupted to some extent £ has turned into "£" as an example.

Cheers
