Ein schöner Morgen für ein wenig Text. Man sagt ja öfter, dass man sich nicht über die Vergangenheit definieren soll, aber irgendwann muss man den ganzen Mist ja auch mal aufarbeiten. Wenn man dann wirklich die richtigen Fragen stellen kann und die ehrlichen Antworten parat hat — und vor allem nicht scheut diese Auszusprechen — passieren die fantastischsten Dinge. Oder auch nicht. Aber das ist auch mehr als okay! Vorwärts kommt man damit auf jeden Fall. So langsam macht sich die neue Wohnung, auch wenn immer was zu tun ist. Packetwerk wächst und gedeiht. Zur Unterhaltung läuft Doctor Who, und ein wenig neue Songs gibt es auch — Kingdoms könnte ein Ohrwurm werden… Oh, und der Klassiker Never The Same hat eine Live-Aufnahme spendiert bekommen. In diesem Sinne einen guten Start in den kommenden Sommer. Man sieht sich bestimmt. :)
About Intention Cues
Picking up an intention cue quite often saves a relationship because some people, out of politeness, don’t want to verbalise what their intentions are. They rely on the body language reading skills of the other person — that means you. If they have to keep making repeated intention movements, it can irritate. Often it’s the last thing they remember about the interaction and so it can cause negative feelings.

Dissecting OpenDPI (SSL/TLS)
A Short Introduction
Okay, this is going to be sort of demanding. Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and now rather Transport Layer Security (TLS) are at the heart of our current encrypted communication via the Internet. Let’s not get too much into the history here, but consider this: SSL was developed by Netscape in the nineties and version 3.0 was used as the base for the open standard TLS 1.0 via RFC 2246 in 1999. On the wire, the protocol presents itself on top of TCP. (A variation is DTLS, which is used on top of UDP.) The unencrypted header structures are well-defined and thus perfect candidates for DPI, especially for Lightweight Inspection (LI). I’m going to refrain from putting “packet” into the term, because LI may work on top of streams as well, as it is not aware of packets. That makes things easy by unwinding the protocol stack and avoiding packet parsing/manipulation inside the engine itself.
kingdoms
tons of good music and lovely evenings aligned
stuff to believe in, now blankly sweeping your mind
concerts supreme, no matter a ride to the stars
another great memory forever burnt into my heart
the stories we shared, lessons we learned, they’d suffice
why couldn’t it stay, because it was rather nice by itself
you said you don’t remember a thing
and while you blame all those drinks
I’d say love is never free
and kingdoms burst eventually
About the Unknown
Tell me a secret
Tell me anything
What’s your weapon?
What’s your middle name?
What do you believe in?
What’s your animal?
Are you a cat or a dog person?
What’s your outlook?
What’s your favourite saying?Hey, maybe you’ll laugh
Maybe you laugh a lot
And maybe you started
But you somehow quit the part
Or you may be a hippie and a democrat
Yeah I remember that, I think
And you might like wine
But you’re not the type who likes to drink
About Distractions
Trying to create something that’s not there.
A spark I saw as a bomb is just a means to an end.
And I was just so happy to be out of my shell again,
don’t think that I really cared for who or what.
So for now I’ll just have to keep it shut.
If you’re not ready, you’re not ready.
Please, stop acting like you are.
How could I know that everything you say
are lies about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes was just
the match I used to set myself on fire.
Does Anyone Know A Band Called Diaco?
Someone dropped 4 files into my shared folder at Audiogalaxy more than 12 years ago, and to this day I never found out where these Diaco guys came from. The writing, performance, and quality is incredible, but the Internet never knew them. I’m not sharing them in the hopes somebody will come forward. Instead, I’ll share them because the recordings are simply too valuable to be forgotten! My personal favourite is Alone In The Dark, closely followed by Lindsay.
