Just in case, it is not your eyes or brain that are at fault, that is
indeed completely indeed unreadable for humans.

And what I can decode from it, those are not 'words', they are groupings
of random letters it seems.

There is a ticket open about this though:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/10809

Thus folks are working on resolving this, though it is a rather hard
problem.
