What would cause my computer to display some websites and some email without the letters Y and z, and display x as quote marks? Wall Street Journal does that. And NY Times shows up that way but resolves into normal. Am I missing a font or something?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Never mind, problem solved.
It's interesting watching Intel's stock price drop in real time during Apple's presentation.
By far the best new feature of macOS Big Sur is that they changed the sound it makes when you empty the trash can.
SO satisfying.
My very old printer will no longer speak to my computer. I’ve tried all the internet advice for fixing it and nothing works. So I need recommendations for a printer scanner that will work well with a PC and a Mac and isn’t pricey.
I like Brother printers and combos. Laser though, not inkjet, not sure what your preference is.
My Epson inkjet has been on the brink of death for years now and I really just need it to get it over with so I can buy a laser printer instead.

I have an old InkJet but can't be arsed to deal with dried-out cartridges, so haven't used it for a couple of years. This convo reminded me that I need an affordable printer/copier/scanner, preferably Laser, that I occasionally have to use for those weeks when I have to WFH. Too lazy for further research, so I just went ahead and bought the first recommended printer on that article off Amazon, which is not bad price-wise ($138), with an after-market non-HP B/W cartridge that's $20 cheaper than the HP version. Hopefully it works fine! There are a bunch of one star reviews about connectivity issues, but I just plan on parking it on the desk with a USB connector to my desktop, so it should be straightforward? We shall see.

James Holden: "There was a button. I pushed it."
Fred Johnson: "...that's really how you go through life, isn't it?"
Why button if not for push?
