@variablepulserate Shh, don’t encourage them. ;)

@joeo10 Thanks for the article. Not really surprised they’re headed back to China.

@joeo10 I figured, but that’s a lot less entertaining than the “Taiwanese flag crashes iOS when phone set to Chinese” beep SNAFU.

@joeo10 Beep = Chinese? Or is this that thing where Chinese OSs beep out “Taiwan”? ?

@literary Scrivener? Notion? Ulysses?

@JeremyCherfas ?

@matigo Ah, here’s what I had in mind - the B series varies noticeably from not-Japan’s:

The JIS A-series is identical to the ISO A-series, but with slightly different tolerances. The area of B-series paper is 1.5 times that of the corresponding A-paper (instead of the factor √2 = 1.414… for the ISO B-series) [en.m.wikipedia.org]

@matigo But you do roll with those funky Japanese paper sizes, no?

/@JeremyCherfas @hazardwarning

@matigo It looks, uh, familiar.

Menu mnemonics complete that vintage feel.

Really not a fan of Tango icons, though. :\

@hazardwarning Check paper sizes of both the Word document and the printer options. That sounds kinda like some of my problems with mixing A4 and US Letter.
