Der Windows-95-Startsound ist nun historisch bedeutsam.
Die US-amerikanische Library of Congress hat den Windows-95-Startsound in ihr National Recording Registry (NRR) aufgenommen. Damit ist der Sound nun Teil einer Liste von Aufnahmen, die „kulturell, historisch oder ästhetisch bedeutsam“ sind. Auch „Volume Alpha“ von Minecraft wurde in das NRR aufgenommen.

So busy today, I don't have the time to make up a good #Doorsday pun. 😥

Today's #door or rather #doors are not from a church, ha! It's from the old #post office in #Magdeburg. It's an impressive #historic building (built in 1895), not far from the Cathedral. Today it houses the Justice Centre, but a small part of it is still used as a #postOffice. The signs say "letters" and "telegrams".

The ornate entrance to a historic building, possibly a post office, is captured in a medium shot. The building's facade is constructed from light brown sandstone blocks, showing signs of weathering and age. Two arched doorways, each with intricately carved stone frames in a Gothic style, stand side by side. The left door is slightly ajar, revealing a dark interior, while the right door is closed. Both wooden doors feature decorative metalwork and small, diamond-patterned glass panes. Above the doorways, the stonework is even more elaborate, with sculpted figures and decorative elements. To the left of the left doorway, the word "Briefe" (German for "Letters") is inscribed in gold lettering on a rectangular plaque. Similarly, to the right of the right doorway, a plaque reads "Telegramme" (German for "Telegrams"). Flanking each doorway are ornate black metal lampposts with glass lanterns. Below each plaque, a bright yellow post box with a slot and a small window is mounted on the wall.
