“Define change!”

Posted on 2008-11-25 by Oliver

… that’s what people should have told Obama when he was preaching “change” to them. Now that names of his future staff transpire to the public, things do not look so revolutionary anymore. I’ll stay a skeptic for now. // … Continue reading →

Hätte man doch

Posted on 2008-11-15 by Oliver

… tja, hätte man doch bspw. ein Lexikon oder die Wikipedia bemüht um mit einem Irrglauben aufzuräumen, dem man nun schon sehr lange aufsitzt. In meinem Fall betrifft dieser Irrglaube Kümmel und seinen quasi “Stiefbruder” den Kreuzkümmel. Jeder Mensch weiß, … Continue reading →

Why is it, everyone is interested in the US elections?

Posted on 2008-11-04 by Oliver

… I mean at the end of the day only US citizens will have had the chance to vote, right? Is it perhaps because the world has learnt the painful way how far an American President can go?! Let’s see … Continue reading →

WikiLeaks reports Sarah Palin’s two semi-private webmail accounts (with Yahoo) hacked. Surely not nice for her privacy – yet it will supposedly create trouble for her because official emails have to be archived in the US and now potential evidence … Continue reading →

“Religion und Wissenschaft sind nicht unvereinbar”

Posted on 2008-09-07 by Oliver

… sagte Herr Lesch in einem Interview welches als Werbung und Vorankündigung der neuen ZDF-Sendung “Abenteuer Forschung” auch in der ZDF-Mediathek verfügbar ist.

Man lernt nie aus: Борщ versus barszcz

Posted on 2008-09-01 by Oliver

Gerade im ZDF-Auslandsjournal gesehen. In sogenannten polnischen “Milchbars” wird Rote-Bete-Suppe serviert. Nun war mir schon aus meinem Volkshochschul-Polnischkurs klar, daß der polnische “barszcz” dem russischen “борщ” entsprechen müßte. Müßte! Laut Wikipedia-Artikel und der Reportage vom ZDF gibt es einen ziemlichen … Continue reading →

A clarification – because it is needed

Posted on 2008-07-24 by Oliver

Almost one month ago I wrote a blog post. Some people more or less took offence by it. In German we have a saying that goes like this “Wem der Schuh paßt, der zieht ihn sich an.” – which translates … Continue reading →

CreateRemoteThread, Vista and separate sessions

Posted on 2008-07-23 by Oliver

Recently I’ve hit a wall during development. I had written a nice workaround for a problem, based on code injection. In fact the code wasn’t injected by loading a DLL but instead by loading relocatable (32bit) code of less than … Continue reading →
