I'm watching the climate conference in Copenhagen with great anger, mostly because I'm just feeling confirmed that the manhood is simply stupid. Not individuals on their own, but if they're organized and have to go into the one, the only right direction, they're completly dumb. I mean, how many homeless, ...

Am vergangenen Wochenende war ich mal wieder unterwegs in meiner alten Heimat Eisenach, ja genau dem Eisenach, wo einige Tausend Beschäftigte um den Ausgang des Bieterwettstreits um Opel bangen.
Besonders erschrocken hat mich hier die breite Plakatierung von NPD und REP auf fast allen Ausfallstraßen und vor allem auch in Innenstadt-/ ...

I wanna shake
I wanna wind out
I wanna leave
This mind and shout
I've lived
All this life
Like an ocean

Forgive
Every being
The bad feelings
It's just me
I won't wait
For answers
You can't keep
Me here
I wanna rise
And say goodnight
Wanna take
A look on the ...

There is a lot discussion currently going on if or if not the Peak oil (the maximum capacity in oil extraction) has been reached yet - of course caused by the sky-rocketing oil prices in these days. But even if our daily lifes pretty much depend on oil, which we ...

Its not that I'm a newbie, but sometimes I just feel that way. People start and talk in acronyms on IRC, and then it comes out that these acronyms stand for apparently famous people in the Free Software world I should know...
Lets start with an easy one: rms.
Yeah, that was ...
