 The delay was deliberate, then?

I am using English version of windows. I just wanted to google something in Japanese. So I installed the Japanese input method. All went fine. After that I found that the display language of windows changed to Japanese! And I have to set the display language setting back to English and restart the windows...

So to be fair...
1. Any modern operating system is a very complex beast.
2. Making all of the bits and pieces work together correctly is a very large task. Realistically it is simply not possible for some cases due to complexity.
3. Many users of Japanese might in fact want to use english but the reverse is probably much less likely to happen.
4. And Microsoft is out to make money.
Consequently many, many things that individuals might want to do requires that those individuals find specific ways to do it because no OS can meet the goals of every single individual.

9 years since I have been here on this site the last time. Seems that a few of the old guys are still around. How are you all doing?
And to the "new" generation, hi how are you?

Wow. Don't you have to be worthy[^] for that?
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

So, you went from the black arts in the software world to the same in the hardware world. And you're back.

I am jealous. I keep telling my wife that I want to retire from I.T. and build furniture in my own shop.
