May I ask why? I'm afraid I don't get it.

Because Hodor do not translate fine into other languages when it has to be an abbreviation to "hold the door"
I stole this from elsewhere:

Brazilian Portuguese "Segure a porta" ("Hold the door") → "a por-" → "Hodor"
Czech "Drž vrata! Honem!" ("Hold the gate! Quick!"), where the evolution to Hodor is quite a stretch…
Danish "Hold døren!" (subtitles, literal translation, no attempt to preserve alliteration).
Finnish "Pitele ovea!" (subtitles, literal translation, no attempt to preserve alliteration).
French As pradyot commented "Qu'ils n'aillent pas au-dehors!" becomes "Pas au-dehors!" and then "Hodor".
German "Halt das Tor!" whereas *Tor* is better translates to *gate* than to *door*. This actually works well for "Hodor".
Greek "Κράτα την πόρτα!". It sounds nothing like Hodor, so from one point on they used greek letters to write "Hold The Door" (Χολντ δε ντορ) which eventually became "Χόντορ". This is a common practice in Greek and it's called Greekglish.
Hungarian The meaning was changed "Holtodig óvd!" ("Defend him till your death!"), this phrase can be heard only once, the phrase Hodor and Meera repeats is "Óvd jól" (guard it well). The sound for both works more or less: Holt-óv → Ho-tó → Hodor, and "óvd jól" at least has the right vowels.
Italian First shown in English with Italian subtitles (literal), then in Italian with integral translation after one week. Translators decided for a little addition to maintain the original meaning and then make the "Hodor" works: "Blocca la porta, trova un modo!" (Hold the door, find a way!) → trova un modo → rov...odo.. → hodor
Japanese "ホーダー" [Ho-da-] which is a transliteration of "Hodor", coming from the English "Hold the Door". Interestingly in Japanese, door is pronounced ドア (doa) which if transliterated as such would make the name a lot closer to the English pronunciation. In Japanese, "hold the door" would be ドアを持って (doa wo motte) which would have more chance of making his name something like ドアモ (Doamo) in a purely Japanese version.
Norwegian "Hold døra!" (subtitles, literal translation, no attempt to preserve alliteration).
Russian "затвори ход" ("close the passage") which transitions to "hodor" in quite a strange and unusual way. The word "ход" is closer to "hatchway" than "door".
Serbian "Hodi, dobro drži vrata!" ("Come on, hold the door tightly...")... then "Hodi... dobro..." ("Come on... tightly..."), then just "hodor...". Alliteration was preserved as much as possible, while it's obviously not the best way to say it. Spanish (Latin America) "Déjalo cerrado". A strange way to say "keep it closed", also needs some imagination to make it work.
Spanish "Aguanta el portón" (Not Ocluye el corredor) in Spain the word door "puerta" was replaced with main/front door "portón" in order for an easier transition to Hodor.
Swedish "Håll dörren!" (subtitles, literal translation, no attempt to preserve alliteration).
Turkish "Orada dur!" which means "Stand there!". It is not dubbed but subtitled. It evolves as: "Orada dur! → Ordadur! → Hordor! → Hodor!".

yeah its how it starts, tho if its comes in 5 min or 1h you never know.
all depend on what keeps you occupied.

 

[ccxvidonaferens]

I agree that fans can complain, but it's also true that many complaints are based on personal tastes and views rather than a serious analysis of the book, game, or series and its context. For example, consider the discussions around Star Wars: The Acolyte.

Don't have Disney+ so all the Star Wars and Marvel series have so far passed me by. I know eventually I'll succumb and get access but I know I shall also hate myself a bit for giving money to the House of Mouse. I know there are ways to bypass the paywall but dammit I'm just too honest to bring myself to do it.

 

[TheDude14]

Let me just gather up the LC Family, and we'll be right over Dr14!
We'll have a little "chat" with you coworkers again!...
Bonki! Hit the baseball bat gif!

Welcome home Bonki!
I'm fine, not much happening.

May I ask why? I'm afraid I don't get it.

I don't know if you watched the series, but there is a play on the sounds of that sentence that shocked the fans. The translators around the world had to try to translate keeping the meaning but at the same time the phonetic play. Let's put the Japanese guy that has to keep something that sounds like "hold the door" but the direct translation he has is "doao akeru" or the Italian translator who has "tieni la porta". All them had a really hard time finding something in their languages that convey both things.

Disney+ was so in need of subscription padding they ran a promotion in Spain where they gave 100%FREE 50" smartTVs(they gave other things too, but that was the right choice) in exchange for having a 3 years 100% FREE subscription to Disney+ added to your TV package for almost all providers.

Hi 4rcan1st, just wanted to say hello. Haven't interacted much lately

just become a mod like mime and you will find out haha....

Hello Underlord

how's it hanging fellas?

That depends on which side the 2x4 hit ya. Doc says it's hanging to his right. Hello
Trip

Oh sure.. that's the Bonky you are when somebody else is in the house.

By yourself? We know how you treat me. We went over this the other night!



I mean.. if you want me to treat you the same way... wait, nah.. I'm getting medieval on your ass.

Wow....going with the propaganda post huh ? I was pulling a
splinter out of your tootsies, don't know how the hell you got
a splinter though......hmmmm, another mystery

Okay Bonki... Your payment gif was bugging me, because the arrow was behind the dot... So I used the last like hour on making it from scratch.
Also took some artistic liberties.

Tell me what you think?
I may have to see, if I can put together a "dark mode" version...

All i see is Slumster booty, so maybe to others it will be better. You're such a
good life mate Slumbaby. Thanks, i took a copy

Yeah, I came back a couple of days ago.

 

[Safetydummy]

yes Japan is not so cheap but there are many good points... Hmmm??? I just need think about it for few seconds lol
I am social but often shy unless someone like you will reply, but its still good fun and people here are nice. crazy like me and you but nice lol
No I never seen much about her after Adams family sadly but she has had so far great career from what I read about her.

Well, when you figure it out. Let me know.
I do recall some of your earliest posts back in that 7K thread. You've come a LONG way since then.
She's done some great movies- you really should check out "Black Snake Moan". The soundtrack is bluesy, but amazing!

this is true. My friend actually changed his on himself and it worked but yes, needs to be very careful and yes, it can all get corrupted and just trash. This why I smash them, except that one that I told them I need the data, payed lot of cash but the data was recovered thank goodness, but others I just destroyed so no one can ever even reassemble them. The hammer did a great work lol
I think so too. I was told if SSD fails then it is completely finished and if anything is there too bad, but they hardly will ever break under normal use. No moving parts is helpful

A hammer or a neodymium magnet will do the trick.
I used to disassemble them for the little horseshoe magnets- they were pretty powerful lil things.

me too, and yes, family passed down things are just memories but also in my family case certain things seems to mean a lot to them to remember the ancestors bla bla but when I died I don't care. Whoever get them can do as they wish. s for my hello Kitty. That old thing needs to be put inside trash can after I died. it is just my child toy and certainly no one should even care. Im not worried about stuff, but it helps much better than watching blank walls with only the floor as company hahaha
Yeah, sadly, some people got it hard in life but you seem very nice and can't change what parents do or did. My life was very hard but iu just don't think about it if I can. Just think of now and such. BTW if you didnt end up here then you will not meet so many fun people lol

True, but you have to have somethings that mean a lot to you. It IS just stuff, but it's your stuff.
Well, you seem to have have turned out okay.
YOU ended up here too, don't forget.

yeah i seen news how bad some place in USA is now. Hopefully it will change for you guys soon.
well, be proud of being yourself, and be proud of your own success in your own life. This is worth it all to know you achieve self improvement... Ok, my Yoda message must stop now haha

Hollywood bla bla is what I call most of it. Just bling bling with no ding ding hahahah

We may get there.
AND yes, Hollyweird, does suck. No denying that one.

cherry pick...

As for insults... I am more than happy to provide. it is something I am good at haha

"Dino juristic tech", grampa tech, ancient tech stuff, old, and Jurassic." Really wanna become my friend, don't you? Do I? Do I really wana become friends? Ewwww so gross... I am going to be sick. A loveless, friendless life is much more fin for an evil creature that hunts humans for blood...

IRQ = was an "Interrupt Request" back when PC's had to "share" what you could and couldn't do at the same time.
I see. I probably understand now (yes i do lol)

DMA = was "Direct Memory Access" and was more like a timeshare for when and where data would go.
Thanks for this.

Back in the "OLD" days you had to fiddle with those 2 for hours. You want a mouse OR a keyboard? Do you want sound AND a mouse? Do you want the Master or Slave drive to be operational? You kinda just had to pick and mix until you got everything to work... GOD forbid if you wanted something other than the onboard GPU or the sound from the motherboard. I remember trying to get a SoundBlaster32 and a Radeon Video card to work for close to 3 hours (AND you had to change jumpers on your motherboard for different voltages for add-ons). Just to play "X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter." Oh happy days.
That sounds like trouble. Is that in the days where the max HDD size was about 250GB and there was floppy disk drive with Pentium 3 chip? I heard about these kinds of old tech.

Well, I don't mind if you insult me- it's technically telling the truth... A very sad, sad, sad truth.

You can be my friend- I won't tell anybody how sweet AND evil you are...

I'm glad you could understand it- it's been *cough* years since anybody has had to do that stuff...

You're kidding right? There was no such thing as a "Gig" back in the day.
My first computer was a 486DX2/66 (MHz processor) with 16M of Ram and a 540M HD with a 9.6K modem. A "Gig" she says...that was almost 10 years later.
There was no "Plug-and-play" and no "USB". You had serial mice and keyboards. AND modems for the internet.

Now you are begin to think how i do. Let the suckers live in self torture and all this. Much more fun than fast execution.

You cannot watch them suffer IF you end their suffering...

Quite the conundrum you have there XD, but if I'm being honest the Acolyte is just an ultra feminist rant about inclusion and women power with little regard or respect to all that the original 6 movies showed us, and don't take me wrong, I'm not against inclusion or women being the main lead on a movie/game/series, but not in the way that is has been made in the acolyte.

 

[ccxvidonaferens]

Well thats the backreading done. I just want to say that I have noticed what appears to be quite an increase of aggression between the members here and simply want to make a request.

So long as I'm not overstepping my bounds of course.

I'm against inclusion. More specifically I'm against inclusion for inclusion sake. It just give us low quality goods for no good reason at an increased price.
