Donebrach@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What instruments have the most relaxing timbre to you?English4·15 days agoLove me a clarinet. Also a muted trumpet is pretty pleasing. I think though the most across the board genre neutral pleasing instrument timbre is the piano. It does it all.

I don’t work on the print side of things, but I generally understand that printers will print the sheets on larger sized paper then trim down to the final product, so even if its a spiral bound book, the raw sheets are gonna be on larger sheets regardless, thus the multiples of 4 (two pages for each side of the piece of paper).
its to tell you the page is not accidentally blank. laying out text for a physical document has limitations on the page count and generally needs to be in multiples of 4 due to double-sided printing and paper stock options. if you have a layout that can’t cover the entire surface of your print media but you need to include the entire physical sheet, (especially if its a technical / legal document) its best to just say “there isn’t meant to be anything here, don’t’ worry.” in so many words.
otherwise you get people calling / emailing being like “your form is missing a part! there’s a whole blank sheet when I print it out! >:(“
Kids are gonna be like “is that V for Vagina?” why not herald the reign of a new progenitor instead; or go full on with Mustofviganion the MMXI?”
Don’t give your children a stupid name or honorific that will just other them with their peers. no one in their life is gonna think its cool other than you, and its just gonna cause them grief growing up regardless of how innocuous it may be.
