Today i read about the “REALLY COMPLETELY NEW CALL OF DUTY”. It is going to be released in 2009 and should be developed by Infinity Wards which already programmed Call of Duty 4. I really liked the 4th part because it was no ww2 shooter like MANY MANY others! I just can not see the scenario anymore. Just Nazis and Allies fighting all time. We saw that many games which take part in the second world war.
But if they are talking about a completely new one, maybe they are talking about a call of duty in space or underwater or … well there could be really really many other places where wars were fought. What do you think about it? Do you Like Call of Duty too or does it just suck?

Today i was eating lunch with my parents at a restaurant (http://www.vitalhotel-strobl.at). First of all I don’t like the restaurant they disappointed us very often, I do not understand why my parents still drive there to eat something. I ordered a salad with grilled turkey strips. It took them nearly an hour to serve it but okay that is normal. So got mine, it really looked nice and smelled very good! I ate nearly have of it, then suddenly…. I saw a big piece of spice. It was green. No wait ! Was it MOVING?! No it did not move … so i touched it with the fork and OH ITS MOVING AGAIN !!! IT IS A NICE GRUB WICH WAS MOVING AROUND IN MY MEAL! OMFG ! I INSTANTLY STARTED TO SPIT EVERYTHING OUT! It was really really really shocking. Now i know why i hate the restaurant! I am not hungry anymore!

Since it happened to me often in the past and i guess someone could need it too, i am now telling you how to disable the automatic reboot after a blue screen.
just click start > control panel > system > Advanced System Options (on the upper left side) > find the Startup and Recovery section (click the Settings button there) > then unpick the “Automatically Restart” option in the System failure section. and click ok.
I wish you great fun with your blue screen ![]()
I have so much and I’m still not really happy. As I wonder why, WHY am I not happy? I would have it, my life is so great and I did everything you could wish for a perfect life and yet, something is missing. Or maybe I am so happy that I am arrived at the top and it only gets worse. I do not know, shouldn’t I be happy?Once I read that rich people are generally happier than not rich. Okay this is now broad and also rich people can be unhappy but if you really have EVERYTHING, you must be happy - or ? I do not even know what makes me even happier.

Since so many people want to know how to enable it there is the way to enable the +20dB Microphone boost in Windows Vista.
Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Sound -> Recording -> Microphone -> Properties -> Custom -> Microphone +20dB Boost
thats it, now your Microphone will be very sensitive so maybe you should reduce the voice activation in the Voip programm of your choice. Have Fun!

Well I didn’t some months ago. But i guess you all know SETI@HOME (the project searching for other intelligent life in space) it was the first more or less useful project of GRID computing. Well i have to admit I joined it too but i did not compute that much. In my opinion it is more or less useless but yeah, everybody has to decide on his own in which project he wants to participate.
I then stopped computing for GRID’s because i wanted to play games and did not want to always shut the computing program down and so on… So i stopped, now some years later i started it again and i am computing in some health projects like POEM which folds proteins, my pc in vienna runs nearly 24/7 and i got a RAC (Recent Average Credit) of about 1 500 points.
So but now i have to tell you about the hard facts of GRID Computing, you don’t get paid you don’t get anything (yeah well you get a certificate if you want one) but yeah you don’t really get something - or ? Well you help mankind to develop medicine against cancer,HIV or something else. So this is a really good way to spent your computing power you don’t use and if your not just playing games all the time you can also spent some processing power and it WILL help! So just click on the link below and join POEM or any other project you want to join!

I am using Ciscutan to get rid of my ugly ugly acne in my face. I swallow 3 pills a day, that’s a really high dose of Ciscutan. But I need it, so since I am taking Ciscutan my skin is very dry. I have to use several vanishing cream’s a day to not become a mummy, no just kidding, It is not becoming that bad but my lips get really dry.
So I started using CisLip, it is just amazing my girlfriend is able to kiss me again! (no she did not really stop but .. yeah just to tell you how I think about it, no I am not getting paid for writing this) So you just use it on your lips and they will be just perfect again. It does not smell and you can not really see it, even if you used it just before. Well i have tried “Labello” or “Bepanthol” but it did not help that much.

I welcome you hacking guys, so now i will tell you how to install Torrentflux-b4rt on your ATV (1.0/1.1). Please if you dunno how to do something your invited to ask me everything you want!
I assume you already installed ssh on your ATV, if not visit this page for more Information about how to install it on your ATV.
The first thing we want to do is to get several commands for our ATV since it has not everything installed already. You can download the ISO of an Patch CD from this page (you may need to register first). When you got it burn it on an CD. the .gz can be extracted by WINRAR.
The next thing we do is to transfer the Applications/Commands to the ATV.
You need the following commands
- nohup
- which
- uptime
- wget (dunno if it is on the cd but you can get it here)
- bunzip2
- du
the commands are located on the cd in the folder “CDROM:\usr\bin\”.
So you now want to upload them to your ATV box, i would suggest you to use WINSCP to upload files to your frontrow home Directory (the first directory you see if you log onto your atv using winscp). So use WINSCP to upload them then move them by typing
sudo mv nohup /usr/bin sudo mv which /usr/bin sudo mv uptime /usr/bin sudo mv wget /usr/bin sudo mv bunzip2 /usr/bin sudo mv du /usr/bin
so now you moved them to the standard directory for binaries on your ATV but you need to tell the ATV that other users can use them too! to do that you need to set the right for these programms by typing
cd /usr/bin sudo chmod 755 nohup which uptime wget bunzip2 du sudo chown root:wheel nohup which uptime wget bunzip2 du
Will continue the writing tomorrow! Now we need some more programms…
Ahhh yeah lets continue!
So now we need even more programms from the cd we burned before. The Files we need can be found in “CDROM:\System\Installation\Packages_i386″.
We need the following files:
bzip2-9.root.tar.bz2 curl-28.root.tar.bz2 gnuzip-19.root.tar.bz2 top-15.root.tar.bz2 vim-13.root.tar.bz2 zip-6.root.tar.bz2
We again copy them to our ATV by using WINSCP. After they are in your home Directory you can unpack them by typing
tar cfvj bzip2-9.root.tar.bz2 tar cfvj curl-28.root.tar.bz2 tar cfvj gnuzip-19.root.tar.bz2 tar cfvj top-15.root.tar.bz2 tar cfvj vim-13.root.tar.bz2 tar cfvj zip-6.root.tar.bz2
Now we want to copy our newly unpacked files to their right position in the filesystem, at first we have to tell the ATV to let us copy everywhere we want by typing:
sudo mount -uw /
now we copy the extracted files to their right location we copy a directory by typing
mv -r ./[directory_name_without_the_bracers] /[directory_name_without_the_bracers]
now we change something the sshd_config by typing
vim /etc/sshd_config
and add those two lines to it
PermitPasswordLogin: no ChallengeResponseAuthentication: no
now we reboot the ATV by typing
sudo reboot
now we need to install xampp for this reason please visit this site
after you did that we need to configure something on xampp so type
/Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/mampp stop mv /Applications /mnt/Scratch ln -s /mnt/Scratch/Applications /Applications mkdir ~/htdocs /Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/mampp StopFTP /Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/mampp StopSSL
now we need to edit the httpd.conf by typing
sudo vim /Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/etc/httpd.conf
now remove all Alias Mappings (most of the time they are just one line and about 3 lines in the whole config)
also set your Document Root Path to your “~/htdocs”, so your users home directory (yeah you can look up the path with winscp!
now start xampp again by typing
/Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/mampp start
Now we want to install torrentflux-b4rt on the ATV so we first need to download it, you can get it here, get the beta2 and extract it to the ~/htdocs directory.
Now you need the Programm to transmission data you get it here
Extract it and remember the path where you did that.
So now you just need one more step you need to update the config file of torrentflux-b4rt so please type
sudo vim ~/htdocs/inc/functions/functions.core.netstat.php
there you please change the second case in the netstatPortList()function like this:
case 2: // bsd
//$processUser = posix_getpwuid(posix_geteuid());
//$webserverUser = $processUser['name'];
//$retStr .= shell_exec($cfg['bin_sockstat']." -4 -l -P tcp |
//".$cfg['bin_awk']." '/(python|transmissi|wget|nzbperl|java).+\*:[0-9]/
//{split(\$6, a, \":\");print a[2]}'");
$retStr .= shell_exec("ps ax | grep transmissioncli | grep -v grep | awk '{print \$11}'");
break;
so you can now start your torrentflux-b4rt the first time! You will have to set a few paths but i guess you know where they are ! If not just comment here and i will answer in some hours!
Good Luck and happy sharing!
Today i installed my Vista SP1 I dunno why it took so long, i guess because i have got a damn slow internet connection at the home I am living at. Just got about 1 Mbit down and 256kbit up, it just sucks i am also limited by a transfer volume which is about 6GB per month, what are 6GB in the year 2008 on the Internet? Nothing. But what i really wanted to tell ya if you install the SP 1 the “boost microphone by 20dB” checkbox is unchecked, even if you checked it before you did the update. I did not know why my Sennheiser Headset is not working till I noticed it.
