LaughingLaughingLaughingLaughingLaughingLaughingLaughingLaughing

this is by far the best Joke I have read this morning ! Come on Microsoft, you can only be kidding !
Oh, will the so called "Zune" player have a nice blue screen when it crashes? 

I have managed to find a photo of the first Zune prototype:

I’m still alive

rabla mea de bicicletaYes, I survived my short bicycle trip :) Only made a few photos, I was to exhausted to make more photos. It took a while to get my bike out since it was covered with car tires, boxes and all sort of other junk. After I pushed the bike to the gas station to fill it with air, my adventure could begin …. god .. that was a strange feeling to ride a bike again :) and a bad feeling in the muscles … this sure will hurt tomorrow.

I want to ride my bicycle

If there will be no blog this evening with some new photos, than this means I fell of my bike!
God, I haven’t used my bike since .. ehmm… 5 years I think!

Cool down …

IMG_3923.jpgIt's way to hot!
Quite a long time ago since we had such a hot summer, I think the last one was in 2003! Anyway … what can you do on such a hot day … go for a swim and lay in the sun. I'm not really a fan of laying in the sun but if there is a pool, than it's ok for me :) My sister had the idea to go to the new "Badeschiff" (Bath ship or something like this). It's a ship on the danube which has been transformed to a pool and there is also a second part where you can lay in the sun and also have a bar.
Well all this sounds to good to be true for Vienna and I must admit I would not go a second time. The pool is ok, but everything else is so packed full, you feel like anchovies in the can, that's not mine, but one could also sit at the bar, there at least you have shadow and don't get a mad headache like I did.
Well it's worth visiting ;)

Human stupidity, once again

I love messages like this

Daca nu dai acest mesaj tuturor din lista ta in 10 minute o sati moara mama ta in urmatoarea saptamana, a fost verificat (scuze de mass dar nu vreau sa moara mama)

It says if you don’t pass this message to everybody within 10 minutes your mother will die. God … how stupid are people to forward this, anyway a suitable response would be:

daca nu dai acest mesaj la toti mai departe, o sa vina unu cu o pula de 40cm care o sa tio bage in cur!

I won’t translate this one …
oh and then don’t forget to hit the “ignore” button grrr….

Overload

Yahoo Phising - Update

Yahoo has shut down the mentionend site. Anyway this doesn't mean that you are complete safe now and that you can shut down your brain again. Always take a close look before entering any data anywhere!

Hot

Hot 37 is what the car display shows, but it also got 38.5 on the way home …

to hot to do anything! 

raid+lvm … can get tricky if you don look exactly

I should think twice before doing stuff with lvm on a raid ! I am setting up a new server, rebooted it with a rescue system so I could create the raid 1, this was quite simple mdadm –create …. and raid was finished, then the lvm over it, pvcreate, vgcreate, lvcreate and ready to go … but alas I had to reboot the rescue system ( shit happens ) after the reboot ( since it was a rescue system which is read only ) the raid didn't start, but I could start lvm :) which of-course complained that things are double ( on sda and sdb, because of the raid) I actually ignored that and started installing xen, after a short time I noticed what big shit I did :) so … I stoped lvm again, starte raid ( mdadm –assemble /dev/md0 /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2 ) and the raid is reconstructing. I have NO clue what it will look like after it's finished, no idea where the lvm acutaly write to ( sda or sdb? ) and if after the rebuild of the raid the data will still be there … maybee I should just start from scratch.

the result was … all I did was gone, so I had to restart with the xen installation Yell
