“

Wenn ich alles richtig verstanden habe, dann muß ich bis zum 31.12. alle meine Inhalte, die sich an Deutsche wenden, mit einer Alterskennzeichnung versehen habe. Wenn ich das weiterhin verstanden habe, dann bin ich haftbar, wenn ich zu niedrig einstufe, und muß Geld und Mühe aufwenden, wenn ich per Default alles auf "Ab 18" einstufe (Jugendschutzbeauftragter, Alterskontrolle mit Personalausweis oder Sendezeiten, also Blog tagsüber abschalten).

Das alles auch rückwirkend für Texte, die für mich erledigt sind und die ich nur noch aus Archivgründen und für stabile URLs online halte.

Das bedeutet - falls das alles stimmt - daß ich Ende des Jahres am kostengünstigsten und mühelosesten fahre, wenn ich alle Texte von mir in deutscher Sprache offline nehme, meine Webserver von DE-Domains und Hosting Deutschland weg migriere und die DE-Domain nur noch für Mail verwende, und in Zukunft irgendwo in der Cloud in englischer Sprache blogge.

I agree. I actually don't think the dialog is too big, but especially the impossibility to navigate it with the keyboard sucks.  If it wasn't clear, thats a quote from here and I mainly liked the way it was written :)

What’s wrong with it? Well, for starters it is half a screen full of text that you have to read. Also it is not immediately clear what parts of it are clickable. You have to move the mouse around to discover the UI like in a Lucas Arts adventure game. And finally the keyboard usability is awful. To tell it “yes, I know what I’m doing, I want to overwrite all files” you have to press Alt+D, up, up, up, Space! It is harder than performing the Akuma Kara Demon move in Street Fighter 3.

“ None of the [tested] systems [Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OS X] appeared to offer fair scheduling. Late-arriving S lock requests were granted in preference to waiting X lock requests. In fact, on some of the systems, when multiple X lock requests were waiting, and all the S lock requests were released, the X request that was then granted was not always the first X that had made its request! So not only did I observe lock starvation by late-arriving S lock requests, I also observed lock starvation by late-arriving X lock requests. ”

“ Game designer and academic Ian Bogost announces Cow Clicker, a Facebook game implementing the mechanics of the Facebook-games genre stripped to their core. You get a cow, which you can click on every six hours. You earn additional clicks if your friends in your pasture also click. You can buy premium cows with 'mooney,' and also use your mooney to buy more clicks. You can buy mooney with real dollars, or earn some free bonus mooney if you spam up your feed with Cow Clicker activity. A satire of Facebook games, but actually as genuine a game as the non-satirical games are. And people actually play it, perhaps confirming Bogost's view that the genre of games is largely just 'brain hacks that exploit human psychology in order to make money,' which continue to work even when the users are openly told what's going on. ”

“ Der Vorgang von Hamburg hat übrigens sehr viel mit der Kernaussage von „Meinungsmache“ zu tun: Die Bessergestellten haben entdeckt, dass sie ihre Minderheitenposition in der demokratischen Gesellschaft dadurch korrigieren können, dass sie ihre Interessen mithilfe von Propaganda, mit viel Geld und publizistischer Macht durchsetzen. Diese Aushebelung des Gedankens der Demokratie ist das eigentliche Signal der Bedrohung, das vom vergangenen Sonntag ausgeht. ”

My cat has been missing, could you make a poster?

Hi
I opened the screen door yesterday and my cat got out and has been missing since then so I was wondering if you are not to busy you could make a poster for me. It has to be A4 and I will photocopy it and put it around my suburb this afternoon.



This is the only photo of her I have she answers to the name Missy and is black and white and about 8 months old. missing on Harper street and my phone number.
Thanks Shan.

Dear Shannon,
That is shocking news. Luckily I was sitting down when I read your email and not half way up a ladder or tree. How are you holding up? I am surprised you managed to attend work at all what with thinking about Missy out there cold, frightened and alone... possibly lying on the side of the road, her back legs squashed by a vehicle, calling out "Shannon, where are you?" Although I have two clients expecting completed work this afternoon, I will, of course, drop everything and do whatever it takes to facilitate the speedy return of Missy.
Regards, David.

Dear Shannon,
I never said I don't like cats. Once, having been invited to a party, I went clothes shopping beforehand and bought a pair of expensive G-Star boots. They were two sizes too small but I wanted them so badly I figured I could just wear them without socks and cut my toenails very short. As the party was only a few blocks from my place, I decided to walk. After the first block, I lost all feeling in my feet. Arriving at the party, I stumbled into a guy named Steven, spilling Malibu & coke onto his white Wham 'Choose Life' t-shirt, and he punched me. An hour or so after the incident, Steven sat down in a chair already occupied by a cat. The surprised cat clawed and snarled causing Steven to leap out of the chair, slip on a rug and strike his forehead onto the corner of a speaker; resulting in a two inch open gash. In its shock, the cat also defecated, leaving Steven with a wet brown stain down the back of his beige cargo pants. I liked that cat.
Attached poster as requested.
Regards, David.

Dear Shannon,
Having worked with designers for a few years now, I would have assumed you understood, despite our vague suggestions otherwise, we do not welcome constructive criticism. I don't come downstairs and tell you how to send text messages, log onto Facebook and look out of the window. I am willing to overlook this faux pas due to you no doubt being preoccupied with thoughts of Missy attempting to make her way home across busy intersections or being trapped in a drain as it slowly fills with water. I spent three days down a well once but that was just for fun.
I have amended and attached the poster as per your instructions.
Regards, David.

Dear Shannon,
I don't have a cat. I once agreed to look after a friend's cat for a week but after he dropped it off at my apartment and explained the concept of kitty litter, I kept the cat in a closed cardboard box in the shed and forgot about it. If I wanted to feed something and clean faeces, I wouldn't have put my mother in that home after her stroke. A week later, when my friend came to collect his cat, I pretended that I was not home and mailed the box to him. Apparently I failed to put enough stamps on the package and he had to collect it from the post office and pay eighteen dollars. He still goes on about that sometimes, people need to learn to let go.
I have attached the amended version of your poster as per your detailed instructions.
Regards, David.

I know, but that one is cute. As Missy has quite possibly met any one of several violent ends, it is possible you might get a better cat out of this. If anybody calls and says "I haven't seen your orange cat but I did find a black and white one with its hind legs run over by a car, do you want it?" you can politely decline and save yourself a costly veterinarian bill.
I knew someone who had a basset hound that had its hind legs removed after an accident and it had to walk around with one of those little buggies with wheels. If it had been my dog I would have asked for all its legs to be removed and replaced with wheels and had a remote control installed. I could charge neighbourhood kids for rides and enter it in races. If I did the same with a horse I could drive it to work. I would call it Steven.

mod_rpaf for Apache

'[rpaf] changes the remote address of the client visible to other Apache modules when two conditions are satisfied. First condition is that the remote client is actually a proxy that is defined in httpd.conf. Secondly if there is an incoming X-Forwarded-For header and the proxy is in it's list of known proxies it takes the last IP from the incoming X-Forwarded-For header and changes the remote address of the client in the request structure.'
