What country did the censors demand to remove Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson from the film?

In the first episode of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, Holmes guesses that Watson has come from the east. However, in the original voice acting, Holmes's phrase sounded: "Have you been out of Afghanistan for a long time?". The fact is that before the release of the tape on television, the artistic council demanded that the filmmakers remove all references to Afghanistan, since shortly before that, Soviet troops had entered there. I had to re-voice several fragments, inserting "east" and "eastern colonies".

Authors: Jimmy Wales, Larry Sanger

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>
