I wouldn't call it "measured in inches" as much as they are "named" with a partly numerical name, which may or may not be an adequate correspondence with a different country's length scale.
It's similar with bicycles: many tires are named in inches. Two tires with the same number of "inches" may however not have the same diameter, so to translate size-names into measurements is fraught with pitfalls.
The problem with banning people from identifying nazis is of course that the nazis then have a field day doing nazi things, chanting "you aren't allowed to call me a nazi .."
I still run a fairly old dell laptop with 4k screen, and fedora 41.
My experience is that i needed to set dpi, scaling, and font sizes separately for kde and gnome apps, Firefox is a story in itself, and one app that I quickly stopped using - partly because I could never get it to listen to dpi settings no matter what I did - well, I recently learned that it could be used on a 4k monitor if one first were to set the right environmental variable. Tough luck, I already went with a replacement app.
Right now I only have one app that needs further custom tweaking to be legible, but since that's only running in the background anyway, I haven't bothered. So in short, for most apps it's possible to configure them, but it is a pain point.
Will not buy another 4k laptop.
Hmmm...
Enter Sandman, and The Unforgiven (Metallica)
The Phantom of the Opera in Tarja's and Marko's version (Nightwish). Also Storytime in Anette's version.
The Keeper of the Seven Keys, and Eagle Fly Free (Helloween)
Chop Suey (System of a Down)
Dance With the Dragon (Dark Sarah)
Ace of spades (Motörhead)
.... A bunch of stuff from Guns'n'Roses, Black Sabbath, and Poison (maybe my definition of metal is wider than yours...)
Other days I'd have listed something by Evanescence, Edguy, Blind Guardian, Dream Theater, Korpiklaani, Alestorm, Nanowar, Dragonforce, ...
Yeah, I tend to be biased towards power metal, symphonic metal, and various '80s groups that are somewhere on the border between "hard rock" and "metal". I know that's not everyone's cup of tea.
