soundtrack for worQ – 08/10

It´s about time to put you three more techno emeralds into the browser. you decide whether you click (take the colored pill) or whether you leave (because you´re not 18 or older).

koxbox – the great unknown

check this funny vid out and hear by yourself what´s the deal of good psytrance. digging into ontologies.

sleeparchive – research

this is what i do. research. this is the soundtrack to my every action. and it´s also greatly mixable 10 of 10!

holgi star & miro pajic – oldschuhe

good grooving basslines and a perfect shuffle make this track a lovely tool for the feet while the fingers keep flying over the keyboard. a head nodd of it´s own kind. enjoy the clowns.

15 ways to point out TYPO3 is your drug

  1. You mostly guess whether a page you surf on was made using TYPO3, and you always check, what year is stated in the header comment
  2. You leave the “admin” account active on your systems, but remove all privileges and set the password to something like “hackme&bugoff!”
  3. You have at least one system on which the sys_template´s uid went over 250
  4. You have subscribed to more than 50% of the newsgroups on lists.typo3.org
  5. Your conditional sentences have virtual squared brackets around it
  6. You try to convince your customer to make use of even the table content element
  7. You usually sleep tight on your TYPO3 pillow
  8. Your vision is #69A550 and #FF8700
  9. You categorically do not apply with a company that misspells TYPO3
  10. You try to solve real world problems with TypoScript
  11. You have or at least have had once an account password set to “joh316″
  12. You wave aside the giggly idea of writing an own TYPO3-like cms from scratch
  13. You clear all the cache, if you come to the conclusion your servers idle too much (not at peak times, of course)
  14. You smile when it comes to stdWrap
  15. You always have the extension kickstarter installed, just for the case

i´d like to you read your drug test cases – no blood, no hair, no police :-)

IPv6 addrconf: prefix with wrong length

after i got up my ubuntu server i checked the syslog where the kernel kept griping about the following.

IPv6 addrconf: prefix with wrong length 48

To keep the syslog clean i searched for a way to suppress that message. it´s simple.

In /etc/sysctl.conf i add two lines

net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra = 0
net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf = 0

There you go.

new database with user in mysql console

this will create a new database on the server with the new user having all rights granted on that db.


CREATE USER 'uname'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED  BY 'pass';

GRANT  USAGE ON *.* TO 'uname'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED  BY 'pass' WITH  MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR 0  MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR  0  MAX_UPDATES_PER_HOUR  0  MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS  0 ;

CREATE  DATABASE  IF  NOT  EXISTS 'uname' ;

GRANT  ALL  PRIVILEGES  ON 'uname'.*  TO 'uname'@'localhost';

if there´s a problem when creating the database,  do not use the ‘ ‘ signs around the db name.

just to avoid phpmyadmin for this little task ;) i didn´t like to look that up everytime.

only let index speaking urls with TYPO3

This solution is neat and simple, so to be added to snippet collection:

[globalString = IENV:QUERY_STRING = id=*]
page.meta.robots = noindex, follow
[global]

t-shirts do matter

for long i wanted to scribble down some sentences to show my support to the cool crew of 3dsupply but i didn´t find the mood or the time. sounds lame, yeah. but those guys know guys like me and have developed an evil masterplan to gain more links to their page than adobe´s got to the download page of their pdf viewer.

i ordered at 3dsupply´s twice and always received the goods fast and got a colored bunch of flyers packed with it, quite interesting stuff. and the current link4shirt campaign is even cooler.

so if you read this and fortuna is online, i might be wearing this cool new shirt to the streets. or maybe i´m just hanging on the couch, whatever fits first.

size does matternow, why this shirt? simple: i got the star and the flower already, and i think that shows what sprites i am made of since the game boy era. and i totally say nintendo is the real console designer! if the shirt would make those 8bit growing sounds everytime one pushes the shroom it would be even cooler!

after i get that shirt, next to be ordered will be the mega shroom shirt. so long.
