What does this mean?

As I said before I think my iMac is failing. Running a Late 2013 3TB Fusion Drive, Catalina. This happens in Safari regularly. What does this indicate? Thanks.

Looks to me like coded messages from Ordo Templi Orientis , or OTO as they like to be called

Graphics problems affect more than just one application. My bet it the application (Safari) is the issue. Try reinstalling it.

I occasionally get that with this site (and no other). I'm able to clear it by either closing tab and opening the site again, or closing the tab, quitting Safari, and reopening.

It's a bit easier to resolve in the latest version of Catalina, fwiw.

I don't think this has to do with Fusion (although I also have a late 2013 iMac with 3 TB Fusion), because it's isolated to this site and a single app. Of the sites I frequent, this one has, by far, the most active media content. I often get Safari warnings about this site using unusually large amounts of resources. Considering the nature of some of the symptoms (those big blocks of black and diagonal lines) I suspect it has more to do with the graphics chip of this model than it has to do with the storage system.

How do you reinstall Safari without reinstalling the entire os?

Are you reluctant to use other web browsers than Safari?
Edge, Chrome, Brave etc....
