Gibt's nicht mehr. Weiß ich zwar schon seit Ende Dezember, aber dieser Eintrag soll ein Trackback-Test sein, und irgendwie muss ich ja was Premium-Content einbauen.

Usually, I love Internet Memes. When this one came around the first time I actually was lacking creativity and originality to respond to it.

Now that a more technical variant of this is being beaten around the bushes, I'm feeling invigorated to finally add my moustache, arm, mustard to it. So, having been tagged by Sebastian Bergmann, here we go:

Sven things you might not know about me:

1. I own an unopened Knight Rider #1 Audio-Cassette for about 20 years now, hoping that one time it might finance my pension. One reason for it being unopened is that I got it twice for my birthday.
   
   
2. I like going to the gymn and working out, and even once participated anonymously on a group-blog called "Projekt Stahlarsch".
   
   
3. My first computer was a Schneider CPC 464 with a cassette-storage medium. And yes, the first Knight Rider Episode was playable in that drive. The first program I ever created was some kind of "sonar" application with which I tricked my brother in believing I could always locate him with that.
   
   
4. I love playing games so much that I finished the last level of Wolfenstein on Christmas Eve.
   
   
5. In school (final term), I got the highest grade in math, but barely made it through physics class. This surprised teachers so much (because of physics and maths usually having same grounds of logical understanding) that they even considered me cheating in math.
   
   
6. My first real love was Miyuki from a Anime-Tv-Series. I must've been 9 or 10 by that time.
   
   
7. I only like to eat spinach when peppered up with ketchup.
   
   

Now, on to the small group of elect people I'd like to tag:

1. Andy for getting him to write again.
   
   
2. EmmJay for checking if he even reads me anymore.
   
   
3. Eay for his enjoyment of media.
   
   
4. Isotopp because I know he MUST have some dirty, untold mysteries.
   
   
5. Perun, simply because I'd like to read something other than WordPress on his blog again
   
   
6. AllesRoger because also locomotive drivers must have got the blues
   
   
7. Dirk Olbertz to remind me that I've got to meet-up with him one day

These are the rules apparently:

• Link your original tagger(s), and list these rules on your blog.
• Share seven facts about yourself in the post - some random, some weird.
• Tag seven people at the end of your post by leaving their names and the links to their blogs.
• Let them know they've been tagged by leaving a comment on their blogs and/or Twitter.

• es ist billiger
• man muss nicht 2 Jahre warten, bis der Publisher sich dazu bequemt ihr Spiel auch in Europa zu verlegen, dank der Xbox-360 Mafia-Promotion-Methoden.
• es kann in 3 Tagen geliefert werden
• es klappt grundsätzlich wunderbar in der regioncodefreien PS3

ABER die Hörste von Sony haben ihren Regioncode mal wieder nur halbherzig implementiert, denn der PSN-Store zum Download von Extra-Songs ist natürlich NICHT regionfrei. Man kann sich zwar einen Fake-US-Account anlegen und dann in den Music-Store reinschauen, aber kaufen kann man nicht, da nur amerikanische Kreditkarten-Billing-addresses akzeptiert werden. Pre-Paid PSN-Cards sind in Europa zudem nicht verfügbar. Und man kann zwar Rock-Band-1-Songs im EU-Store kaufen, aber die natürlich nicht mit der US-Disc von Rock Band 2 importieren, trotz gekauftem Export-Code.

Alle Unklarheiten beseitigt?

Wie man es dreht und wendet, es bleibt dämlich. Immer dieser Globalisierungskack, da werd' ich wirklich aggressiv. Warum wollen die Leute mein Geld nicht? Erst mit Wirtschaftskrise kommen, und dann rummäkeln "äääh, Du bist aber kein Ami, also zeigen wir Dir keine TV-Seriendownloads, TV-Streams, MP3-Musik, Youtube-Videos und vor allem erlauben wir Dir nicht mit deinem doofen Euro hier in unseren Shops zu wildern".

#FAIL. Aber sowas von.
