> In Microsoft Office 2007, it replaced Times New Roman as the default font in Word and replaced Arial as the default font in PowerPoint, Excel, and Outlook. In Windows 7, it replaced Arial as the default font in WordPad. De Groot described its subtly rounded design as having "a warm and soft character".[3] In January 2024, the font was replaced by Microsoft's new bespoke font, Aptos, as the new default Microsoft Office font, after 17 years

> In 2013, Google released a freely-licensed font called Carlito, which is metric-compatible to Calibri, as part of ChromeOS.[20] Carlito's metric-compatibility ensures ChromeOS users can correctly display and print a document designed in Calibri without disrupting its layout. Carlito's glyph shapes are based on the prior open-source typeface Lato. [21]
If a person prepares a document in e.g. OpenOffice with a font that Windows or MacOS don't have (like Liberation Serif or Noto Serif) and saves it as a .doc/.docx, and opens it in MS Word, doesn't it default to Calibri as the font? (Or Aptos since 2023)
IIUC, if you open an OpenOffice .doc/.docx in Word, Word replaces unknown fonts with its default font when you save it?
Formaldehyde is carcinogenic. We know that because of embalming fluid, for example.
Turns out you have to ask for formaldehyde-free wood when buying building supplies.
Engineered I-beams / I-joists tend to use cheap wood with formaldehyde in it.
If you're building a new home and trying to minimize VOCs (to limit your chance of getting cancer and other conditions), you should use formaldehyde-free wood.
Twitter.com/{username}/status/{tweetid} URLs redirect to x.com, because X continues to host the HTTP redirect (so that all of the existing links to tweets from other sites continue to work).
X acquired the database of tweets that billions of twitter.com URLs point to.
X acquired the Twitter trademarks when they acquired Twitter.
Probably millions of other users of the Twitter brand assets (in accordance with the posted Twitter brand guidelines) have not yet updated their Twitter bird logos to the X X.
To defend such trademarks, X corp must prosecute competing social media sites that misuse its trademarks and word marks out of accordance with the posted brand guidelines.
There is no statutory requirement for a company to continue to host brand guidelines for retained and/or actively used trademarks in order to retain their USPTO trademarks.
Did they register Twitter.new with intent to compete with Twitter.com in the Social Media space?
What does USPTO call the Twitter/X trademark exclusivity industry category?
The implication from the LinkedIn post (to my eyes at least) is that they believe they have a case for canceling X Corp's claim to the Twitter trademarks. And then the landing page at twitter.new certainly implies that they plan to start their own social network/app called Twitter.
> Affinity Partners, the private equity firm led by Jared Kushner, is part of Paramount's hostile takeover bid for Warner Bros Discovery, according to a regulatory filing
> Affinity Partners was not mentioned in Paramount's press release on Monday morning about its $108 billion bid, nor were participating sovereign wealth funds from Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Qatar.
> [...]
> WBD could be the second major takeover Kushner has been involved in this year, having previously played a key role in the take-private agreement for gaming giant Electronic Arts.
> Electronic Arts (EA) is being acquired in a $55 billion leveraged buyout by a consortium of investors, primarily Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF), along with Silver Lake and Jared Kushner's Affinity Partners. The deal, announced in September 2025, is structured to make the company private. While the consortium initially kept the ownership breakdown private, a recent filing indicates the PIF will hold a dominant 93.4% stake, with Silver Lake and Affinity Partners holding smaller percentages.
Why have you sold EA/Maxis/NFL Madden/PGA Tour (US) to immune for 9/11 SA?
Did they give you billions of dollars for free?
WBD (US) should not be sold to SA or to Paramount (Ellison, Kushner, SA,)
> Recent public reports and a Senate investigation have uncovered significant evidence that Mr.
Kushner acted as an unregistered foreign agent of [SA]
Kushner - who was never credentialed by State Department, an ambassador, or registered as a foreign agent in the US or in any other country - has now, in 2025, helped sell Electronic Arts to SA and is trying to help sell Warner Brothers Discovery to SA, a foreign territory which does not support Freedom of Speech.
Trump wanted Ellison to purchase TikTok (from the owners in China that weren't offering to sell it) so that US data would remain in the US.
By comparison, why did Trump/Kushner help sell EA (NFL Madden, NBA Live, PGA Tour,) to foreign interests, and why is Trump/Kushner trying to help sell WBD to foreign interests?
Coffee, the brew, is not a significant source of Quercetin. The grounds, the part you throw away, may be. But capers are like ~200mg per 100g, and outpaces all the other common sources of it, so if you were really big on Quercetin, you'd be looking at anything but coffee.
