  • Hey, at least the creator(-s) are claiming to plan for Win2k support... this is at least something.

    Regarding the name... yeah, unfortunate.

    But overall: I have it now running on my Windows XP laptop for a couple of days and i really like it, it's fast (at least with a Core2Duo and 4 GB RAM), it's reliable... i really like it.

  • Yeah, nice stawman... think what you want, fight your little culture war if you will... i just wanted to bring some sane context to the discussion about the word and i will leave it this way. I will not further partake in a fruitless conversation.

  • Moor is racist in German?

    Only if you have no real problems in life...

    "Mohr" is pretty anachronistic but in itself not discriminatory or a slur. Up until somewhat recently (say, at least up until the 2000s) it was not uncommon to find it in product names or mascots ("Mohrenköpfe", the "Sarotti Mohr"). I would say it is much tamer than the german word "Neger" (which in itself is also not a slur, but ... less desireable).

  • Ich habe heute Nachmittag meinen Vater mal darauf angesprochen und die Geschichte ist interessant:

    "Neee, wir hatten keine Frauen auf der Baustelle" meinte er, dann habe ich ein wenig weiter nachgebohrt und mal explizit nach der Kranführerin gefragt, da kam dann "Das war, keine Frau, das war Helmut! Komischer Typ, nen Transvestit, aber ein begnadeter Kranführer!". Er / sie hat wohl irgendwann gegen Ende der 70er in der Firma angeheuert und gegen Anfang der 80er angefangen Frauenkleider zu tragen. Das ganze wurde in der typischen Ruhrpottart als harmlose Spinnerei akzeptiert.
