Roulette spielen lohnt sich :)

Nachdem ich in letzter Zeit viel über Roulette nachgedacht habe, da eine meiner Vorlesungen über Zufallszahlen handelt, dachte ich im Besitz DER Lösung für Roulette zu sein! Die funktioniert so, dass man in seinem Leben genau einmal spielt und dabei alles auf Schwarz oder Rot setzt und danach nach Hause geht. Gerade wurde ich jedoch eines besseren belehrt: www.heise.de schreibt über ein Pärchen, dass mit einem scanner und Computer "bewaffnet" in ein Londoner Casino ging und anhand der gescannten Informationen die Wahrscheinlichkeit eines Gewinns auf Zahl von 1/36 auf 1/6 steigern konnte! So haben sie mehr als eine Million Pfund gewonnen! Und das beste: es ist legal :)

Vielleicht kann ich das ja als Versuch im Fortgeschrittenen Praktikum anmelden ;) Würde ja zum Anwendungsgebiet Informatik passen :D

edit: Und zu kaufen gibts das auch schon bei ebay :)

security and a german bank...

I've seen some cash-machines booting windows or showing an error but what happened in Ulm is unbelievable :) The members of ccc-club ulm found three account statement printer which could easily be abused! As you can see the got access on the computers and might have been able to do some harm! Of course they didn't because of some cameras watching them! The computers had internet ip's and you could resolv hostnames on it but icmp, tcp and udp wasn't possible. I really hope the press will take that case and that it helps to avoid these things in the future!

It's not the month july but the german group "Juli" which I mean. They gave a concert near Dortmund ( Zeche Bochum ) last wednesday so it was my duty to get there!! And it was amazing! She really rocks on stage! I just say she because the others of the band just looked like her background... Which doesn't has to be as the first band showed really good! Anyway, Juli will again here but this time IN Dortmund :)

flatrates...

The feeling was incredible when I first ordered an internet flatrate! Being online as long as you want without further more costs! It was of course quite expensive and for todays standards really slow... Two years later ( 2001 I guess ) I got a dsl-flatrate which was 15 times faster AND you still had two phone-lines to use! For three days now I own a phone flatrate... And I don't mean voiceoverip ( calling someone over the web ) but normal phonecalls everyone does all over germany! I never knew that there are provider providing ( :D ) this :) But the story's still not over... I've just been on the L.T.U. homepage because I'd like to fly to NY somewhere next year if possible and I saw the flying-flatrate!!! Yes, you can fly as often as you want and you only pay one price! Although it's only from germany or austra to spain or portugal I'm amazed of it :) ok, it's really not cheap ( 10.000 Euro ) but anyway... Someday we'll get all the food we want for 200 Euro p.a. & p.p. :)

have fun

thunderbird

I'm using thunderbird for quite some time now ( 0.2 I guess ) and I've never "compacted" any folder! Actually I thought it might compress it or something like that =) I guess I read it too fast the first time because I never realized that it's not compress... So for all out there who are using thunderbird and don't know that it's for: When you delete a mail in thunderbird it just doesn't get deleted but only marked for deletion! So each spam mail you got since you started using thunderbird is still saved! It just gets deleted when you compact a folder! So just start your thunderbird and do it! There have been 350 MB mails marked for deletion on my laptop!

2 am

it's 2 am in the morning and I still have a lot of work to do for tomorrow... Yeah, I'm lazy before 10 pm but I also need some sleep because tomorrow I'll start the accounting control of the AStA with someone else... So another day from 9 am to 8 pm at university... But although I'm that long there I can't listen to all lectures because of an urgent order I have to place in the morning... So I guess I won't post much more then 3 posts a week here... But hey, if I get through all this it'll be worth it :) ( Even if I might move to Stuttgart but anyway... )
