    If it wasn’t obvious that the Debian box is a parody, here’s what the Japanese Chinese text along the top reads on each box:

    Please read the instructions carefully and use it under the guidance of a physician. It is strictly prohibited to be used in food and feed processing.

    Please read the installation instructions carefully and use it under the guidance of the administrator. It is strictly prohibited to use for server installation.

    so yes, the title is correct-- this is not a coincidence, the Debian box was made explicitly for this joke

    edit: thanks for the correction folks, honestly thought it looked more like Japanese than Chinese at first glance and I am obviously not an expert in either. Appreciate the call-out, very deserved.

          Well good for me, means that my “Identify Japanese from Asian characters” skill is better than I thought, which is should be as I’m learning the language since over a year.

          Maybe I should’ve been more confident, any sentence should at least have some hiragana for particles.

          I had a blast playing the Czech-localized version of Bioscopia until the CD got scratched and it started crashing. I was terrible at gaming (still am but can look up guides now) so I never got past the starting area and reception. Still, the interactive encyclopedia kept working and I went through most of it. I recently pirated a working English-language copy (developed by Tivola together with the German one, I think) and had a blast. It would still crash at later points but I was able to hack the required items in through the plaintext XML save file, as well as 99 credit on the keycard (not as interested in biology anymore) and finish the game.

            I remember that series, it was basically Myst but as a learning game. I played a bit of ‘Chemicus’ as a child but also never got far. These games where probably all way to hard for children. I wonder, do learning games even exist anymore? I spent many hours with games like ‘The Mystery of Mathra’.

              I think they do make some kind of edutainment but not like this. Point-and-click adventures were relatively easy to integrate some education into but the kid needs the time and patience to find a solution when they inevitably get stuck (perhaps with hints but not walkthroughs). Their attention span is too short nowadays because content comes more often than on 1 CD-ROM per month for the delayed gratification of exploration and puzzle-solving to work.

        I read it as pro-gyn-nova

        • Pro: as in professional/effective
        • Gyn: woman (from Proto-Indo-European *gwen), like in gynocology
        • Nova: new (in many romance languages)

        It rolls off the tongue and encapsulates three important aspects. I’m sure there are other readings of it too.

        Ah, other commenters beat me to saying what I was going to say regarding the semantics.

        But also, it’s a unique artificially created word. Nobody is going to confuse it for anything else (granted, that might get murky with pharmaceuticals). It’s searchable with any piece of software that does simple string matching. Also, it isn’t itself a constituent of some other longer word, which helps with that kind of thing too.

        The spelling of the word is also phonetically logical. Being a new artificially created word, they could’ve spelled it however they wanted, but they chose the spelling that reads how it sounds. Very few people are going to hear it spoken and misspell it if they’re typing it into some device.

        Yeah… that sums it up

    does this mean that debian deletes estrogen? Or does it provide testosterone, the spiral is reversed, so surely that’ll have some effect right?

    Maybe this is one of those cases where the estrogen is just put in the package backwards.
