I just read this article:
http://futurezone.orf.at/stories/293368
Read it. READ IT. R E A D IT!
I don’t even want to comment it. Of course, it’s futurezone, but read it and start puking. Especially the last part concerning animal-rights-activists is very interesting.
You know what’s funny: I saw it coming some months ago …
Because I promised to inform stechan how my arthroscopy was and how I feel now after everything is done, here my short story:
2008-09-25 06:00: entered hospital
2008-09-25 06:10: got my room and hospital clothing, watching breakfast tv … :/
2008-09-25 06:30: got a small pill, asked if it would kill me, nurse said no, swallowed it
2008-09-25 07:30: bored of watching stupid tv-shows, writing sms instead
2008-09-25 08:00: feeling sleepy, not much sleep the night before
2008-09-25 08:30: doctor entered room, asked me stuff
2008-09-25 09:00: entered operation room, got anaesthetised, thought “PHA … that shit won’t bring m……..” and slept
2008-09-25 11:30: recovered from anaesthesia, feeling dizzy, don’t know what happened, looked on my left foot, saw the bandage, thought “WOW …”
2008-09-25 12:00: back in the room, feeling very dizzy and sleepy
2008-09-25 15:30: woke up, still don’t know what the fuck happened
2008-09-25 18:00: slowly realizing everything
2008-09-25 18:30: got something to eat
2008-09-25 19:00: girlfriend visited me, happy
2008-09-25 21:00: got to sleep again, what a day
2008-09-26 08:00: nurse woke me up, brought breakfast, yummy
2008-09-26 09:30: doctor came, looked at his work, asked me how I felt, told me I could go home today
2008-09-26 12:00: packed my stuff, hobbled home
2008-09-26 13:00: realized that there was much blood in my shoe :/, went back to see the doctor and check if that’s normal, was told that it was only the haematoma from the operation
2008-09-26 14:00: came home, watched tv, surfed the web
2008-09-26 15:00: opperator visited, drank coffee, talked about stuff
Well, these were my two days in hospital. The doctor gave me a video-CD with my operation on it. Maybe I’ll post some screenshots later, so that you can see what happened :P.
Now, 3 weeks after my arthroscopy I feel quite confident again and can do some jumping already, but there is still some pain around the scars. But I guess that this pain will decrease in a few days or weeks.
Finally: some pix!

new week, new article.
This weekend I tuned my little slackeee and installed the recently released 2.6.27.1 linux kernel. I did this because I read on the Changelog that ath5k now really supports the built-in chip of the first generation eeePC. I already tried to use ath5k in the past and failed, but the Changelog sounded very optimistic with this version so I gave it a try and now it works! 
So far, I don’t need madwifi anymore because everything comes straight from the kernel itself. I can’t tell you how happy I am!
UPDATE:
YES! I also read that 2.6.28 will have support for the Attansic network chip too!
hi guys,
I just discovered that I was completely wrong in my opinion concerning the “bite inhibition” of dogs and/or wolves. I thought (and I guess that 95 % of the people also do) that the wolf which offers his throat is the inferior one, but that’s WRONG. Erik Zimen disproved this. My earlier opinion was that the superior wolf is “social” and doesn’t want to kill a member of his pack. Well, everyone is learning. So am I.
But I guess, that most of the people won’t like this point, because it’s not social enough. 
Hi guys,
I don’t know if anyone of you have ever heard of this plant,
but I’m quite sure, that most of the European citizens have already seen it. Most of them don’t even know, that this plant doesn’t belong to Europe, but to Asia. I recently recognized an increase of that invasive plant which often overgrows local plants and therefore steals their habitats. Maybe this growth could get very dangerous in future, because I noticed that the habitats have changed very fast over the last years. What do you think about this issue?

I don’t care if people comment this topic in English or German. Just comment it if you want to say something. I will try to collect all of the relevant points and publish them in a freely available format for everyone afterwards!
donstechan has also picked up this very important topic on his blog in german:
und was machst du?
Thanks!

I recently tried to figure out simple ways to save energy and resources in my everyday life and I came to the point where I thought: “wait a minute … I could blog this and ask others about their impressions!“.
I want to sum up some simple ideas which are very easy to realize for everybody in a developed country.
That’s why I’m asking YOU. What are you doing to save energy and resources?
Here are some of my ideas. I would appreciate if the one or the other could realize some (or all) of them. Most of them are a result of common sense and I’m often shocked when I see people who disregard these simple things:
I think that everyone could do these simple things without any big effort, so DO IT!
It also helps your moneybag. 
I would also like to hear comments and ideas from you.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks a lot to stechan for posting his ideas, I really appreciate that! And because of the point with the headlights I have to say that I also think that switching on your headlights is safer, even during daytime. But it also reduces the mileage if switched off … that’s a point which has potential for a discussion.
hi out there,
I just changed the theme of the blog because I think, that this one is a bit more readable than the one I had before. Criticism is welcome, but might be ignored if I don’t like it :P.
So far. have a nice day!
It’s been a while since my last posting, shame on me, but now I’m providing some information for the curious. On the 24. of September I’ll undergo a small arthroscopy on my left ankle because there is a small bone particle which hurts when doing sports. The doctors told me that they will cut out this little fragment. I guess that this bone particle is a result of my last injury (broke my heel a year ago). Well … I hope after this small surgery I will be free of pain when doing sports. I’ll catch up with this topic as soon as I had this procedure.
I just discovered a very nice add-on for Firefox, ScribeFire. With this add-on it is possible to manage your blog inside Firefox. 5 stars!
Here is an image:
Nice work.
