Wikimedia has broken
off the fundraiser. 1 million donors donated on average 20 dollars for the
470 million visitors that wikipedia gets. My contribution (25 euros) was
slightly above average then, I'll keep that in mind for next year. If you
donated, congratulations you too support 470 others on wikipedia.

According to this article (german) and
a CERT advisory the key
to a WPA2 network can be broken within 11,000 tries. In computers 11,000 tries
isn't much.
I've found and turned off WPS on my parents problematic Speedport W303V Type A
router which had it set in the pushbutton method by default. Now it's off.
At home I don't use Wifi so that's safe (I have cat5 cable everywhere though).
Happy New Year 2012 everyone.

As you can probably tell this site has been getting a bit of javascript
and HTML5 improvements. I'm dabbling here and there with my book I got
a while ago. One noticeable change on this blog is that the ads on the
top will get reloaded every minute to a new one. You can see what ads
there are by reading the page source. Cheers!

Yesterday I was systematically going through the website of the Pirate Party
of Germany. At first I was a little shy about them, now I think they are
my party. The good thing is that you can vote for them twice. Once with your
money and once with your vote. I donated 10 euros to them which I will
money transfer to them tomorrow. For all those that use computers and internet
as much as I do and aren't convinced they are _the_ party to vote I urge you
to look at the politics section of their website and make up your own mind.
Invest 40 minutes which I did to really take a look at the program. Sure there
is some things missing like defence and finances as well as foreign relations
but their priority number 1 for politics is to make the Internet political
topic number 1. I don't expect them to win the elections but if they get into
parliament it would be grand considering I vote for them.

I finally left Facebook. I never really needed it. And hopefully all my
friends who facebook said will miss me, will actually miss me. If they
leave facebook I'll be there on old methods like email.

Early this year (sometime in april or so) I made 2 shows for SVP Radio which
have never been broadcasted. They deal with OpenBSD and have all songs by
OpenBSD on them. I DJ these songs together in a random order. If you're
interested in listening to my mediocre voice and good OpenBSD songs then
go ahead. Free 2 hour listening.
The shows are up to date until OpenBSD 4.8 song. The rest of the songs you
can find at OpenBSD.
Thanks to OpenBSD for the songs!

Well Christmas isn't around truely yet, but I'm sure Maria felt something by
now, those 2000 some odd years ago. I want to wish you a happy solstice today
and you may not know this the solstice is for me christmas and new years in
one. But I do honor the christian tradition too and we don't open our presents
until the 24th (24th is german tradition to open presents on xmas eve).

Once again the solstice is upon us. For northern people like me, it's the
winter-solstice. For southeners like Australians the summer solstice is
approaching. This solstice
according to wikipedia is on the 22nd of December.

I finished porting the changes I've made to the openbsd client for natally to
Linux. On my parents computer then I'm able to do:
root@neptun:/etc# ping6 ipv6.google.com
PING ipv6.google.com(bw-in-x69.1e100.net) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from bw-in-x69.1e100.net: icmp_seq=1 ttl=53 time=81.6 ms
64 bytes from bw-in-x69.1e100.net: icmp_seq=2 ttl=53 time=80.2 ms
^C
--- ipv6.google.com ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1000ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 80.248/80.927/81.607/0.736 ms
Among google facebook also works over IPv6 (www.v6.facebook.com). I'm very
happy that natally works the way I planned for it. In the future though I'M
going to make some routing code changes with it... stay tuned for that.
