  • Das ist egal, der Staat hat trotzdem überhaupt gar nicht (!) Betriebssystem-Features vorzuschreiben (und somit insbesondere auch alle Projekte, die historische Betriebssysteme bewahren wollen, unmöglich zu machen).

    Ich bin der festen Überzeugung, dass das in den USA gegen den ersten Verfassungszusatz verstößt: Softwarecode (auch in kompilierter Form) zu verbreiten, sollte “freedom of speech” sein. Ich hoffe, dass die Gerichte das für das kalifornische Gesetz (das ja schon beschlossen ist) genau so entscheiden werden.

    Did she get a new voice actor in the original at some point?

    Because for us who watch the German dub, this happened in or around 2007, between “We’re on the Road to D’ohwhere” and “My Fair Laddy”. That was the time I seriously became aware of which episodes were (then) new, because Marge’s voice was different only in the new ones. :D

    This is consistent with my idea (which I’ve long had) that there was yet another quality drop around the time they switched to HD. The episodes from the 2000s are mostly still perfectly watchable IMHO, the ones from the 2010s much less so and I don’t think I’ve ever watched a Simpsons episode from the 2020s, so can’t say anything about that.



  • No such thing as “smartphone addiction” anyway. Not liking boredom is a fairly normal human instinct and the fact that we can now at almost all times use smartphones to get rid of boredom is a good thing. Quick reminder that “Internet addiction” started out as a satirical concept. Addiction is normally about substance use, maybe gambling; calling all hobbies or habits “addictions” completely devalues the concept.

    Digital technology can be used for so many different things in so many different ways that it’s completely stupid to demonize it in general. I acknowledge that watching a steady stream of short videos (on TikTok or similar) for hours isn’t a very productive way to spend one’s time, but there are so many other things that can be done on screens!

    I mean Szczecin and Bydgoszcz are fairly well known place names, and chuj is a well known word for other reasons, so those are the easiest apart from DWORD which I think I’ve seen in the Windows registry.

    I would have picked the same except for HGDIOBJ, the OBJ screams “object” and it wouldn’t be very pronounceable in Polish orthography, not even by the standards of Polish. Have not looked any up though.
