Anime
Prisma Illya
From the view of a TYPE-MOON non-fan, this still looks like a pretty good pisstake on magical girl anime.

And just like that, it was gone (from Utah). And just like that, another appeared in Romania. Definitely the work of aliens.
Time to become star children.

The birth of Windows
Windows One. Happy Birthday. - The Oasis
Microsoft Windows was first released 35 years and a couple of weeks ago. In his personal Substack newsletter, John C. Dvorak talked about the history of the operating system, specifically its original version.
A screenshot of Windows 1.01, adjusted for EGA's display aspect ratio.
Screenshot digression
EGA had non-square pixels. The video mode that Windows 1.01 used on EGA computers was 640x350 pixels with 16 our of 64 colours, but displayed at an aspect ratio of 1:1.37 (close but not exactly the 4:3 ratio we're used to from standard definition video). Compare the screenshot here, resized to 480x350 pixels (as close as we can get to 1:1.37) to the native resolution screenshot at https://rareencounter.net/images/RE21_win101_native_res.png, which is what you'd get from naive emulation that doesn't take into account the physical reality of video modes of the 80s and early 90s era.
