Back Home

Home, sweet home.

I am back home again, my IT is running again, I even fixxed the telephones.

Now I have to scroll through >>2000 unread Mails and read a bunch of letters.

I guess I'll spend today hangin on the telephone and replyin e-mails.

The "Finanzamt" (german taxes Institute, similar to the IRS) sent a dozen letters, as did my banks. And I have to subscribe to University classes today.

Yeah, rly looks like this will become a funny day.

beggars took marketing lessons

OMFG this beggar must have been a washed-up CEO or something.

You all know why prices in the supermarket are all like $9.99 instead of $10.00, right?

Well, today, instead of beeing asked for the standard Euro, I was begged for 99 Cents.

I wonder what comes next - will drug dealers and hookers adopt that sort of marketing tricks?

.o("best Blowjobs for only $24.99 - Buy 2, get 1 free!")


Oops, I did it again

... this time in a live game.
2008/04/05 at a "Poker Texas"-Tournament in Trossingen, BW, Germany.

8cTc in my pocket, the turn gave me the str8flush, seven to jack.

It is getting a little bit scary now...


Heads Up

As I got very much response (via IM) to my first Poker-related post in this blog, and some thought I played bad, I want to review the two str8flush-situations.

Don't worry, I wont post every hand I play here in this blog now, but I will post some poker issues in the future. Maybe I'll fork a sub-blog, we'll see.

I like Heads-up games. You have to play very loose, and you have to fight.
Plus, I get bored after playing 8h in a big tournament; Heads-Up SNGs are kinda like a warp zone to the boss enemy in a tournament ;)


Suited Connectors FTW!

The probability of hitting a straight flush in Texas Hold'em Poker is 0,02785%, the probability of flopping this monster is only 0,0015%.

In many thousands hands I played, I got some quads and some str8flush-draws, but have not seen a str8flush or even had one by myself.

The probability of getting quads is 0,168% BTW - compare that to the probability for getting a str8flush and aks urself how often u had quads in your life...


MeFaSteDo - Help google!

Your search - MeFaSteDo - did not match any documents.
Well, MeFaSteDo is a german hackers acronym for the german word "MehrFachSteckDose" (english "Gangplug" or just "Power Strip").

If you're speakin german and do not trust me, see here or here for convenience.

Hostname wanted

My new Thinkpad (a R60e) is beggin to be named.

Its antecessor's name was "bihatsch" - a term r-nel often used at work. The day I got the laptop we founded "The Bitch club" - so it was almost clear what name the T40 would get.

But which name would fit for the R60e?
Its thicker, heavier, and bigger.
And more vulnerable - bihatsch had a skin of steel (yeah, i know, not exactly steel...), the R60 only has painted plastic.
