  • Lieber Malte,

    “Mensch Papa, Ihr seid doch drei Erwachsene, oder? Und dann macht Ihr da noch so viele Fehler hinein?”

    via Ab in den Endspurt: Fehlerkorrekturen beim OpenNMS-Buch | Die Welt von Malte, Sabine und Klaus.

    Wir sprechen uns dann wieder wenn Du Dein erstes Manuskript abgeliefert hast. Oder Du schickst mir einfach mal Deine Deutsch-Hausaufgaben ;)

  • Difference between raw and reworked images (Schiffenensee)

    Fribourg – genevainformation::pictures.

    That’s the image as it comes out of the camera when shooting RAW. The camera has done nothing at all to it, so I pass it into Lightroom, twist the colours, sharpen, push the blue a bit:

    I think it’s impressive to see the difference. On the other hand the first image is very dusty, a better picture would have had better results.

    Oder besser: Die Eisenbahnbrücke darüber.

    Oder lieber nur in S/W?

  • The bad thing about outsourcing is..

    ..that you pay experts to install a server which leaves a server without any swap space. I’m flabbergasted.

  • The good thing about outsourcing..

    ..is that it’s not me who has to teach a system administrator that “rebooting the server” is not really a way to fix an issue.

  • There’s a first time for everything: Calling the SDIS

    SDIS is the abbreviation (french is full of abbreviations..) for the “Service Départemental d’incendie et de secours”, the emergency services.

    When we came into Cruseilles this morning, there was a scooter crashed on the right side of the road, a boy sitting on the roadside and an adult consoling him – we stopped and we were the first on site. The adult wanted to take a left turn with his car (a small bus) and the boy came up with his scooter – the black ice let him slip, the scooter crashed in the bus and the driver fell on the ground.

    He got hurt, but not a lot, mostly scratches on the hands and the ego.

    First time to call the emergency services in France then for me – as opposed to my experiences in germany, I had an immediate response and a couple of minutes later the ambulance rushed in.

    I hope the week continues in a less dramatic fashion.

    28.02.2010 Chambery/Löwen – genevainformation::pictures:

    Rhein-Neckar-Löwen gewinnen 29:24 gegen Chambery Savoie (wie zu erwarten), am 28.02.2010 in der Phare, Chambery. 4200 Zuschauer

    The difference in coach behaviour is remarkable. The french guy dances..

    The danish guy watches the match.

  • Country side.

  • Geneva Lake

    Leman

    When the train comes out of Gruyère and enters the Valley of the Geneva Lake, the view passes on the whole lake, here with the Sunset showing the location of Geneva. Terrific, every time I look at it.
