Guy Steele argues that when you don’t know whether to expect a 4:3 or a 16:9 projector, you should use 20:13 as the aspect ratio.



But beamer supports only a fixed set of aspect ratios via the aspectratio= options, and 20:13 is not one of them.



How can I still produce beamer slides with a 20:13 aspect ratio?

Adding



makeatletter
 setlengthbeamer@paperwidth20.00cm%
 setlengthbeamer@paperheight13.00cm%
 geometrypapersize=beamer@paperwidth,beamer@paperheight
makeatother


should do the job, though it might be necessary to tweak the overall scale here.

            One-line joke

            A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain. [ citation needed ] Examples "A baby seal walks into a club." "A dyslexic man walks into a bra." (Anonymous) "There are three types of people, those who can count and those who can't." "Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala...
