Foreigners in Japan have the same issue. Pretend not to speak a lick of Japanese and you'll get great service. Speak just a little and suddenly they think you can read Archimedes (or the Japanese equivalent).

MacOS Monterey, default system language is Japanese but obviously I browse a lot of English websites. Using plain sans-serif, I get Hiragino Kaku Gothic ProN as my default font instead of something nice like Helvetica Neue.

At some point, you just have to give up and understand that a pixel perfect representation of a design is not possible. We're not working in print anymore. I thought something like this would been obvious after 2 decades of transitioni

Because whatever is default depends on too many variables. Like if you're on a Japanese OS but your language preferences are English, the default sans-serif font is a Japanese typeface that often doesn't display Roman alphabets th

I'm not a gamer too though I managed to quickly google Tower Offence and several games popped up. Didn't see if they were what you were thinking about though.

I have another method where I simply create a commit with nothing but the TODO/FIXME/DELETEME comments where the commit message is same content. I then make sure to delete all of those commits later before creating a pull request.

I manage this problem by appending a 5 digit number in front each file, ie. 00001-Hello-world.md that I strip from the URL. It solves multiple problems for me. 1. All articles are sorted automatically. 2. I can visually see how many drafts
