TV or Not TV \u2013 A Modern Soliloquy<\/p>\n
TV or not TV: that is the question:
\nWhe\u00adther \u201atis smar\u00adter in the head to suffer
\nThe sound and fury of the one-eyed monster,
\nOr to rise up against outra\u00adge\u00adous programs
\nAnd by a dial-twist end them. To rest; to sleep;
\nNo more; and by that sleep to say we end
\nThe eyes\u00adtrain and the thousand sil\u00adly shows
\nThat we\u2019\u00adre expo\u00adsed to. \u201aTis a consummation
\nDevout\u00adly to be wis\u00adhed. To sleep; to dream;
\nAy, there\u2019s the rub; for in that sod\u00adden sleep
\nWhat dreams may come? What visi\u00adons of delights
\nWe\u2019ll never get to see on any chance,
\nMust give us pau\u00adse. There\u2019s respect
\nThat makes such fools of tho\u00adse who\u2019d seek their pillows.
\nFor who would bear to watch the hoary westerns,
\n\u2026 who Bonan\u00adza \u2026 who Walt Disney,
\nWhen he hims\u00adelf might his quie\u00adtus make
\nWith a swift Nytol?
\nThe hope of bet\u00adter things to come,
\nGre\u00adat undis\u00adco\u00adver\u00aded glo\u00adries, stays the hand,
\nAnd makes us rather bear the shows we have
\nThan dream of others we may never see.
\nThus wis\u00adhing does make view\u00aders of us all,
\nAnd thus the honest need to go to bed
\nIs van\u00adquis\u00adhed by the will\u2011o\u2018-wisp of promise,
\nAnd keeps us sta\u00adring at the boob-tube.<\/p>\n
outra\u00adge\u00adous: very sho\u00adcking and unac\u00adcep\u00adta\u00adble \u2013 eye strain: a tired con\u00addi\u00adti\u00adon of the eyes cau\u00adsed e.g. by a long peri\u00adod of rea\u00adding or loo\u00adking at a com\u00adpu\u00adter screen \u2013 Con\u00adsum\u00adma\u00adti\u00adon: the action or moment of com\u00adple\u00adting, making per\u00adfect, or ful\u00adfil\u00adling sth \u2013 devout\u00adly: inbr\u00fcns\u00adtig \u2013 there\u2019s the rub: that\u2019s the pro\u00adblem \u2013 sod\u00adden: com\u00adple\u00adte\u00adly wet as a result of absor\u00adbing a lot of liquid \u2013 hoary: very old and well-known or fami\u00adli\u00adar \u2013 quie\u00adtus 1. the end of one\u2019s life; 2. [fig] come-uppan\u00adce \u2013 Nytol: name of a slee\u00adping tablet- \u201a will\u2011o\u2018-the-wisp: Irr\u00adlicht, T\u00e4u\u00adschung- boob-tube: (infml) TV screen; boob = fool<\/small><\/p>\n

Im Fol\u00adgen\u00adden eine PC Version:<\/p>\n
PC or not PC, that is the question,
\nWhe\u00adther \u00b4tis nobler in the mind to suffer
\nThe slings and arrows of outra\u00adge\u00adous viruses
\nOr to arms against a sea of digitroubles
\nAnd by cut\u00adting some cables end them. To be off\u00adline, to relax -
\nNo more, and by a com\u00admand to say we end
\nThe eye strain and the thousand incom\u00adpre\u00adhen\u00adsi\u00adble error messages
\nThat we\u2019\u00adre expo\u00adsed to; \u201atis a consummation
\nDevout\u00adly to be wis\u00adhed. To be off\u00adline, to relax -
\nPer\u00adchan\u00adce to read and miss a brand-new update,
\nAy there\u2019s the rub, for in our absence
\nWhat \u201einno\u00adva\u00adti\u00adon\u201c may come
\nShould\u00adn\u2019t make us pau\u00adse \u2013 there\u2019s no respect
\nFor the nerds who stay online:
\nFor who would bear the whips of blue\u00adscreen crashes,
\nThe inso\u00adlence of Office,
\nThe pangs of vicious hackers,
\nThe incom\u00adpe\u00adtence of shop-assistants
\nBut that the hope for a fas\u00adter CPU puz\u00adzles the will
\nAnd makes us rather bear tho\u00adse ills we have
\nThan sim\u00adply switch off and relax.<\/p>\n
