A neighbour talked to me on the street lately that his laptop hard disk may be damaged, because his laptop didn’t even boot anymore. The data on the disk is important to him so he asked if I may take a look. So that’s what I did with this hdd, a WD 500GB. Put it […]
In November or December 2010 I bought a i7 950 with 3.0GHz, over time I upgraded the RAM to 24GB and the graphic card stopped at a nvidia GeForce 760 GTX. Six years of well enough performance for everything I could think of, programming, 3D graphics, gaming. Finally this is over. I bought Deus Ex: […]
Yes, I’ve got it back! After my ssl certificate provider startssl.com upgraded the root certificates with the power of SHA256withRSA instead of SHA1, I’ve got my A+ rating for SSL secured websites back.

So my father was punished by an automatic install. The update system wasn’t even asking him. He went away from his PC and came back some […]
Would you believe it? The OnePlusOne smartphone of my wife got a soft brick, all by it-self. Software can have bugs, software is able to NOT work sometimes, but a crash so massive that the device wouldn’t even turn on again is to much for me. I am sorry. Of course, I know how to […]
OMG. There is a bug, damn. Can’t continue today. -> Next day -> Updating. Oh, the bug is gone, great! *continuing* 🙂
… at this WordPress instance. Quite funny watching the visit statistic going up only for “/wp-login.php”. Had also some fun watching the silly tries to find the correct password for users like “admin”, “administrator”,”< domain.tld>” or just “< domain>” which all do not exist.
