...what's this about Calibri?

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Apparently calibri is too woke, so they're reverting to using times new roman for government documents

[–] HarkMahlberg@kbin.earth 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I first learned how to use computers when Times New Roman was the default font in Word, but I'm not a stunted fuckup with daddy issues so I guess Calibri never bothered me.

But Mark my words, the Conservative of tomorrow will be working fervorously to return to the glory days of when Calibri was their default font, because Conservatives always yearn to return to the days of their youth, when the world wasn't so big and scawey.

Apparently Times New Romans had only been the State department's font for about twenty years

[–] HarkMahlberg@kbin.earth 1 points 6 hours ago

Yeah that's about when I started using Word in Business Computers class.

I am also picky about what fonts I use, but only those that I use.

My requirements are

  1. Monospace (every character has same width)
  2. 1 !~= l and 0 !~= O and l !~= I (read "!~=" as "isn't similar to")

I usually use Liberation Mono, Adwaita Mono and Source Code Pro. I also really like Terminess Nerd Mono, but it only looks good if line width equals to 1 pixel. It's really only meant for fixed resolution.


Well, Terminess isn't doing so well with 1 and l.

Mouse pointer... eh, anyway.

I only use 3270. It is the one true font. At least for the terminal.

You read non-code text in mono space? Who hurt you?

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 10 hours ago

I just like predictably sized text. It makes more sense to me to have document width in characters rather than in inches.

I think attempting to read your second point gave me an annuerysm
