I read a biography about RMS and now I am really thinking about calling the OS GNU/Linux and not just Linux.

I hate computers…

Since kids can unlock their parents iPhone Xs with FaceID I can’t wait for the news coming out when the first kid emptied their parents credit card with in-app purchases.

I call this sunday “whiny sunday”

And now the migration assistant fucks up. Once upon a time Intold people to get Macs because “It just works” Apple what happened to you?

Ha, I have an „alias -s py=python“ in my zshrc That‘s why it is not working

What the hell? The shebang-works when called from bash but not in zsh? Oo

I am on Fedora 27 and a #!/usr/bin/env python3 gives me #python 2.7 according to sys.version

But when I run env python3 in the shell it shows me python 3.6

Why???

Woohoo, I have a booting system again. Let’s get this data from the backup again onto the system. Via USB 2……

An installation- or major upgrade fuck up makes you hate probably any operating system…

Now I try a clean install of High Sierra from a USB-stick. Let’s see if this works out :/

Yep, crash with the same problem. A couple of hours wasted. Now to the USB-installer. Meh. It needs ages to download with this slow connection. Thanks Apple for showing me what is great about the BSDs and Linux. #macos #update

Fuck. Now the damn thing might be stuck again and no eff-ing information what is happening. Argh. #macos #update

And there is no log and no verbosity at all. Why Apple? I want to know what the computer is doing.

After waiting for over an hour while looking at an install-screen for macOS, it rebooted and tells me now „Installing: 45 minutes“, „Installing: estimated time is being calculated“ (roughly translated from German. This is no fun…

Where is the person who whined about fucked-up Ubuntu-updates? I have here a fucked-up macOS-update (Sierra to High Sierra) and I had to fall back to verbose mode to see what is wrong and have now to re-install. Everything takes ages…

I’d really like to take part in a politics or economics-podcast. Or at least have an interesting conversation about those areas. I really miss that from university :/

I just saw Die Hard. Those were the times where my studies in Japanese science and economics probably would have been more “profitable” than my hobby “doing stuff with computers”.

From a book about operating systems: „Idle lawyers tend to become politicians, so there is a certain social value in keeping lawyers busy.“ (Operating System Concepts Essentials)

Cars 3 was faaaar better than expected :D

And now: two overly happy kids

Surprise, IT-Sicherheit in deutschen Kommunen ist unterirdisch.
